Chris2K Posted July 29, 2018 Report Share Posted July 29, 2018 I've just finished the New Donk City festival in Super Mario Odyssey. Just amazing, the song in the background, the realisation that Mayor Pauline is Pauline from the original Donkey Kong game, the fact you're essentially playing the original Donkey Kong game in 2018, everything about it is just great and such a joyous experience. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've added a few versions of that song to my spotify. It's great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruki Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 I've seen gameplay of that, looks fun! but I'm still too busy rocking the heck out of Octopath. I'm done everyone's chapter 2 and have just finished Tressa's and Olberic's chapter 3. Still loving the battle system and the music and everything to do with this game.

Chris2K Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 Just finished Odyssey, an absolutely fantastic game. My ending... Spoiler Peach decides to ignore both the guy that's risked his life to save her from the clutches of a monster, and also the monster who has gone to an extreme amount of effort to put on a spectacular wedding, then flies off on the only means of transport available leaving them both to likely die on the moon. What a complete bitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katsuya Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 Direct announced for Wednesday at 10am Eastern / 3pm UK. Apparently more Smash Ultimate news, which I assume will include the final characters to be announced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobfoc Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 I hope they'll announce some game modes too. The Direct they had for the Wii U and 3DS games was very thorough, so I'd like something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GA! Posted August 7, 2018 Report Share Posted August 7, 2018 I finished Sonic Mania on Sunday. Well, almost, sodding chasing the robot for sodding Chaos Emeralds. It's so much fun. A nice mix of new-old and new-new levels, most of which quite high octane and with surprising variety in terms of boss battles. Definitely worth £30. Would be worth your standard £50 too tbh. I'm now in 'Encore' mode - I'm not sure why it exists as it goes back into the Sonic Mania story after a couple of remix levels at the start, but it's good to play through the game again so soon.

apsham Posted August 7, 2018 Report Share Posted August 7, 2018 Dead Cells is out today. Oh my god - that, Iconoclasts and Salt & Sanctuary in the span of a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatshortguy Posted August 7, 2018 Report Share Posted August 7, 2018 I may pop over and check on the PC player base, but I'm a wee bit concerned on how people keep describing Hollow Knight and Dead Cells as difficult games. I'd be curious to know how they compare to something like Rogue Legacy before I plunk down $35 for both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sousa Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 Pretty great reveals across the board. The Belmonts are such no-brainers that I'm surprised I didn't see any actual speculation about them. Chrom and Dark Samus are kinda weak but since echos are a big part of the deal now it's sort of a "why not?" thing. K. Rool is of course an obvious pick and is in that Ridley school of characters who were gonna make it in eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sousa Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 It's gonna be a mode where you can put in any video game ever and it'll draw out a fuckin' Marth echo from the cartridge, Monster Rancher style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RPS Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 It should be a Nintendo dating sim featuring all the characters in Smash Bros. You should also be able to have the characters procreate and make babies that look like a combination of the two characters. Like for example, what if Kirby and Princess Peach got married and had three babies? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
