Burnout 3 absolutely. Paradise was a great game but it’s format shift to open world effectively killed the series. Also made races really repetitive since they always went to the same places and you didn’t have an incentive to explore the rest of the map, which was full of really cool stuff like the quarry and train lines…

Anyway Burnout 3 is just the perfection of the classic formula. Shoutouts to Revenge for the traffic check mechanic and the cool new car designs.

Same for me. There are some interests I have (mostly niche games) that just don’t have the population to have any sort of traction here. I don’t comment or vote there anymore, and I’m only still logged in on my main PCs because I didn’t bother logging out. Deleted all my old comments and posts.

Bought it on sale earlier this year alongside Palworld and Helldivers 2. You might notice why I still haven’t started it.

I had a sudden urge to look into TERA Online private servers, downloaded 100GB of custom game clients… And that somehow resulted in me getting back into playing Grim Dawn. This time I want to play it enough to really learn it and actually finish the game.

No no no no stop talking about it, quick before the Nintendo lawyers show up!!

But was he???

Yes, all of their games in the past few years or so have DLCs like that. What I’m actually worried about is some of their games the MTX aren’t irrelevant like these. Monster Hunter has been getting more and more of these with each new release since World and I’m scared of what they’ll do with Wilds.

Does DOOM count? It’s been officially open sourced recently, even though it was already treated as such for decades.Either way, I can’t stop playing it, there’s 30 years of user created content to go through.

The Armored Core Portable games are really good, if you can live with thr wonky controls. There’s Tekken 5 Dark Ressurrection, great port of the same.fighting game of the PS3. Gran Tourismo Portable is nice, alongside Wipeout Pure and Pulse, and Ridge Racer are all nice racing game options. And I cannot go without mentioning Monster Hunter Portable 3rd! One of the best in the series, easy to get into and has a fan translation available.

Both, it’s both.

Oh my gods, I thought we were going to have to wait another year for the PC version after the PS5 one released. I am now VERY hyped for this release! EDF!!

Since I have to use wireless, I did find myself a pair of those for my new phone. Still waiting for them to ship, though. Over the ear hooks are pretty nice, I used to really like them years ago when they were more common, before the damn rubber in-ears.

I just got a new phone that doesn’t have it, and I very strongly miss it. I hate having to charge wireless devices. Everything that I can, I get wired.

Doesn’t help much that lately it’s been getting harder and harder to find good compact wired earphones, most companies pivoted to wireless… And of those that I find, most are the in-ear type with that rubber tip you squeeze deep into your ear… I also don’t like that. Guess I’ll have to move to over-ears for everything.

Dude gotta have extended lungs. Ain’t no way man.

Don’t. Use your own words or don’t even respond to the thread.

THE GODDAMN PEAR! I saw people get banned over it lmao. Yeah, good times back then. Being online was a lot less bullshit.

Nintendo first party titles are very stingy with sales. Many third party titles however, go on some pretty good sales with decent regularity. You might also want to make a Japan/Hong Kong/Singapore account to grab Asia-exclusive games sometimes, if those interest you.
As for the games I own and would recommend, there’s:
-BOTW
-Metroid Dread -Dead Cells
-Hollow Knight
-Crimzon Clover: World EXplosion
-Burnout Paradise
-Fast RMX
-Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate (or Rise)
-Atelier Ryza (or Sophie)
-Mario Kart
Just some general, off the top of my head recommendations. If you want recommendations of specific genres, I might be able to recommend further.

Oh my god I used to LIVE in Ultimate-Guitar back in the day. It was the first actual forum community I got into, and I played a lot of guitar, so I was always into the culture and news.

School of Rock, it kinda became a Christmas movie with my family, we watch it every year. Jingle All The Way with Arnold Schwarzenegger is the other one.
Then there’s my personal favorite, Pacific Rim. I absolutely adore that movie, giant robots fighting kaijus. Too bad there was never a sequel.

Very much so! They add a ton of content to an already pretty content-rich game, and after you have them, you’ll barely notice they weren’t part of the base game before, except maybe the Castlevania one because of the obvious difference in theme. Still, lots of quality content that adds tons of variety to your runs!
