I only found out this week that it actually stands for Connecticut Leather Company. I'd love a set of saddle brown joycons.

I have been kind of done with GTA for a while

Take a look at the trailer for GTA6, what a fun and wonderful world they have created there, it's full of boisterous characters loving life. Seems great. Except, the game is going to ask you to shoot and kill all these characters. I don't wanna do that.

I guess using disc based media is how they could fit two characters on each vehicle in Mario Disc - Double Dash :D

At that point why not just round it up to a 9 or down to an 8.75 is my issue?

I think 8.8 was spot on. For a Zelda, TP is pretty mid, but a mid Zelda is still pretty drat good. It has a couple spectacle moments and some unique dungeons, but otherwise was a bit too safe and bloated.

Gertsmann was also right in that Link being left-handed is worth 0.1 extra point. That's the only reason why BotW and TotK aren't 10.1/10 games.

The art style and writing decisions definitely knock down for me, but I still think it was a solid 9 for me same with Skyward.

i remember this game owning, but the only part i remember specifically is the old west town where some knockoff morricone music plays while you walk down the main street and wreck some bozos. if you shoot the guys on the balcony they'll crash through the railings when they die which was a nice touch

Technically no delay since there's never been an announced launch date but actual reputable journalists have talked to third party devs who have said they were told the launch window was now around March next year instead of these holidays.

This whole list of 'leaks' is just existing well sourced information with some random 'there's going to be other directs! with games! it's going to have RAM!' mixed in.

Reputable like Bloomberg who has been predicting the Switch Pro every couple months for years?

Yeah I've played about an hour. The first power up lets you go so many places by chaining it off of itself. It makes everything feel really non linear, like I can explore in any direction I want

Does anyone other than me remember when Aonuma made some sort of claim about TP's land size, saying that it was so much bigger than OoT that would take 45 minutes to get from one end of Hyrule to the other on horseback?

Man, I was so disappointed.

It takes that long in Twilight Princess because you have to stop for a lot of cutscenes and get sucked into the a Twilight realm a couple times
