Christ, I hope not. I mean, I want to be super hopeful (and naive) and say that Re4 would be something like... $20 ($25 :canada: :argh:), but.... dammit, you're probably closer :negative:

Re4 is one of my favorite games of all time and I cannot wait to get it for switch regardless of cost.

I guess you could say "I'll pay even inflated amounts for it."

Capcom's been pretty good about their Switch pricing for the most part. Okami is $20, the same as PS4. Dragon's Dogma is gonna be $30. The Mega Man collections are the same price as they are on PS4 too. I can't really see them charging more than $20 per game.

Ultra Street Fighter 2 was an "original" game for the Switch so I think it's hefty price is more of an outlier.

The moment we got a modern computer and internet, everyone had 56k and C&C right, the first thing I did was try the online in MoHAA. That would be the beginning of the end for me.

Oh drat. I played the hell out of MoHAA and I think I peaked with that game. Every other FPS after, I've been terrible at, but I was the poo poo at Allied Assault deathmatch.

Just got Celeste and while fun as hell, I need a controller with a better d-pad. The pro controller is terrible at diagonals.

I'm looking at the 8bitdo SN30 pro and the PowerA wireless gamecube controller. Are the shoulder triggers weird on the gamecube controller or do you not have to press all the way to the bottom on them?

A shitty post? This calls for a dance of deduction.

If Microsoft are going to release all their first party games on every system baring the PS4/5 then what the hell is the point of the Xbox One Two going to be, if I can play the next Halo on my Switch or whatever else then why would I even buy one.

Microsoft's goal is to be "the Netflix of gaming". The real money is on software and third party royalties. At best hardware just gets in the way of that.

The purpose of the Xbox TWO (or is it FOUR?) will likely be for diehard fans who want the flagship console for the digital platform for the "true experience" and more casual gamers who want just a streaming box.

There will likely be two different models. One which will be a cheap subsidized gaming box primarily for streaming and low end versions of games (the Roku of game consoles) and a high end version that is essentially the Xbox One X 2 and hold the title of the most powerful gaming platform to play the definitive versions of games, because LMFAO if console gamers are going to switch to PC.

Maybe I just suck at this game :v: I was having issues with the analog stick so ppl were suggesting I try the d-pad, which seemed a bit better.

I think the Switch port of RE4 will be the first time that I'll 100% the game. I've beaten it, beaten it on Pro, beaten both Assaignment Ada and Separate Ways, and gotten at LEAST 3-4 stars in every level of Mercenaries, though maybe not with every character. I think I've collected all the bottle caps, too. I've never used the hand cannon, though, as well as other stuff like the mine thrower (:rolleyes:), but with it on Switch? gently caress yes, I'm doing everything this time.

WAIT!

Follow me.

EDIT: how the gently caress do you even get ammo for the mine thrower? Why is it even in the game? I kind of like the decision to add it in, to be honest, because it confuses me so much.

Got my Satisfye grip this week, and had a chance to try it out on sunday while the wife watched the Oscars. What a great product (the Satisfye grip, not the Oscars). I'm a big guy at 6'5" so long term gaming in portable mode was an exercise in hand pain, but with the grip I was fine playing Dead Cells for a couple hours with no issues.

10/10 money well spent, highly recommended.

You're insane. The analogue stick is better than the D-Pad in only one specific instance: the feather mechanic in chapter 6. Otherwise the d-pad is just so much better at not rocketing you off in a direction you didn't mean to go

edit: Unless we're talking about the joy cons specifically and not the pro controller. The dpad on the joy cons is indeed trash and the analogue stick is better in that case

No one listen to this man. RE6 isn't just a bad RE game, it's a terrible game in general that no one should play. Not even co-op saves it from being misery.

Your character only moves in 8 directions, you never require analog movement and it requires a lot of precision. It's a dpad game.

Except for the feathers, that is. You definitely want an analog stick for those.

Both REmakes are absolutely the pinnacles of the series, or at the very least embody the spirit of survival horror

Its because you are wrong... I mean, in my opinion at least. I played it with a Xbox360 controller on PC for a while before switching to the Dpad on an ibuffalo SNES controller and the dpad was WAY better.

Edit: Forgot about the feathers... I think for those I switched back to my Xbox controller and would switch to the stick whenever I got one as those things were impossible to do with a dpad...
