The Switch really became the sweetheart of the indie devs and small studios.
The Blackangel replied to DC's topic in Nintendo
I mentioned this somewhere else on the forum, but it all boils down to the simple fact that the Switch was designed to play games, whereas android and iOS were not. They were designed as phones primarily, but the Switch is a gaming hub. And quite frankly, they make a lot of money selling the games on the eShop. The digital versions go for more than the physical ones do. For example, Mario Odyssey goes for $50 for the physical cart, but the DDL goes for $60. I've checked that on other games as well that are offered on multiple platforms. They make just as much, if not more by selling on Switch. -
To my knowledge we don't have anything like that here in the states, unfortunately. If we did, I would be checking it out regularly.

What games have made you jump out of your chair?

Holy shit. Word of advice to everyone: Do not piss @Crazycrab off. -
PS5 event round up. Games a plenty and a very pretty console!
The Blackangel replied to Shagger's topic in Gaming News
The design is enough to tell me that it’s not a console worth owning. They went with that? It’s the same reason the Game Cube was a piece of shit. They put no effort into it. So little effort that they just threw 4 corners together and said “Done.” If they care so little about their consoles that that is what they put out, then I’m the one that’s done. -
I've always used a controller as well, with the only exceptions being AOE and Diablo 1&2 on PC. I started gaming with a controller in my hand and it's what I'm used to. Trying to game otherwise just feels unnatural to my hands. Maybe it's a kind of "hits the ear wrong" type of thing? I guess when it comes to gaming, my mind and hands are conditioned to holding a controller.

Beavis & Butthead came out at the same time on SNES and Sega Genesis, but were totally different games. The basic plot point was the same, but they went about it in completely different ways. And from what I understand there were some titles from the PS3/Xbox 360 era that were on both systems, but were wildly different in terms of gameplay.

I fucked up in my post. I meant the A, S, D, & W keys. Plus the arrow keys are red. I was half asleep when I made the post last night. But everything else I said was correct from my end.
-
No the keys themselves are a different color. For example, my girl has a gaming setup, and the E, S, D, & F keys and the arrow keys are red, while every other key on her keyboard is black.
-
Some keyboards actually have the keys that you would use in gaming colored differently.

If boredom was a drug, I would have been in a coma by now. Oh wait, I think I am in that coma. __/\__/\__/\__/\___________________________ Ah. Shit....

Does Microsoft Edge count?
-
Yes. The Vita took the PSP out of the market, the way the GBA took the Game Boy out of the market.

That's @Shagger for you. His eye catches things that no one else's does. Sometimes I think that, in actuality he doesn't have eyes, but microscopes inserted into his head.
-
All I can say on that, is that the trailer said they were from the same studio. I honestly have no knowledge on the subject.

Xbox Game Pass Ultimate Members Will Now Get Free DLC and More
The Blackangel replied to Dead2009's topic in Xbox
Is game pass worth getting? I'm looking at it, and I'm thinking that a game I have been waiting for like crazy may only be available with Game pass, as the end of the trailer said something about it. So I'm just wanting to know if game pass is worth getting, or if it's a ripoff. -
I bought disc's for both of them. The main reason I got them is because they are made by the same studio that is putting out Tell Me Why Which I have been waiting for forever.
-
Anyone played it? How is it? I bought Life Is Strange and Life Is Strange: Before The Storm on eBay a couple weeks ago. I got them on Xbox One. I didn't get LIS 2 yet, due to the price. But I wanted to see what those that have played it think of it. With Beyond The Storm, I got the limited edition, So I'm not sure I'm going to open it or not. I may get another copy to play and keep this one unopened. But it does have the complete season, so I'm unsure yet. It looks really good to me. But I wanted to hear from an experienced eye on it.

Since he's anti-Mac, that means he has some brains.

What age did you get to be good at gaming?
The Blackangel replied to StaceyPowers's topic in Gaming Forum
I’m a massive hockey fan, but don’t play hockey games. The only sport game I play is snowboarding games. But that’s because I was a pro-am snowboarder when I was younger. -
Not including any big franchises: NES - Blaster Master SNES - Illusion Of Gaia N64 - Conker’s Bad Fur Day

It sounds like an early Mac. I think an Apple 200.
-
Where exactly did I say I was proud of it? I merely mentioned that I did it, as it was relevant to this thread.

The Switch really became the sweetheart of the indie devs and small studios.
The Blackangel replied to DC's topic in Nintendo
I hadn't thought of that. Nintendo being so much older, it is generally looked at as a family system. you're right on the money there. I remember when PS1 and Xbox came out, they were looked at instantly as adult themed systems due to the games that were released on them. People thought they weren't intended for children. Then when games like GTA and COD started coming out on PS2 and Xbox 360, people "knew for a fact" that those systems were strictly for adults. They didn't have mascot games like Mario and Sonic. So you're right on this one. -
I was 4. My cousin had shoved me off my bike and broke my collarbone. So I was kept home from school for a couple weeks at a friend of my parents house. They had an Atari with both Pac-Man and Pitfall. I gamed my ass off.
