I got prize money from a costume contest on another forum a couple days ago and I used that to buy Owlboy. It's super fun and the sprite work is gorgeous, but it's really making me wish I had a PC controller

Also had an awkward moment where I tweeted about how it doesn't work on my garbage specs PC and then Adrian Bauer himself swooped in to ask specifics, but then I told him I got it working on my laptop

Dogs, cats and birds are all good people. Birds are weirdly more like dogs than cats, in my experience, but the fact that you can teach them human words, and sometimes what those words mean, owns.

I finished Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX last week and since then I have been playing Link Between Worlds, which is a really amazing game. It reminds me so much of every good part of Link to the Past, with so many good additions. The thing where you don't really find items in dungeons is pretty weird, and I wish the Dark World was a little more original and exciting, but the save point/fast travel system is perfect and the 2D wall crawling leads to some really cool puzzles that kinda force you to think outside the box right off the bat. It's fun to just run around and try to find the weird chirping mollusk things or a cave to blow open. The updated music with the weird SNES bleeps and bloops still peppered throughout is exactly what I want to hear. I think I like the Legend of Zelda series a lot. Can't wait to finally get to the 3D games.

I love my PS Vita. I love it a lot more than my New 3DS. It's comfier and the screen is gorgeous. I just wish it had as many games to take advantage of the hardware. Isaac and Spelunky run fantastically on it, for example.

I want Spelunky on 3DS real bad. It'd better get on Switch.

I'm old af and find it incredibly hard to keep up with the massive wave of video games that's coming out these days, anyone feel the same? I mostly look at active threads in this forum every few months to see what's out, if they're active enough, often the game is good. (as long as it's a genre that interests me, that is) Then I get the game and never come around to actually play it more than for half an hour. Then when I actually have the time, I often end up playing old games I've been playing already for years. How do I get out of this

You're old now. I'm sorry.

I finished Link Between Worlds and have started Ocarina of Time and I think I prefer the top down Zeldas so far. Although it was cool that there's a Marin and Tarin equivalent, I didn't think I'd ever be seeing those dudes again. But if Talon is what the Zelda people think a realistic Mario would look like, Jesus Christ :stare:

the last time they were generally good and releasing lots of good games was before they hosed up prince of persia so bad. that series really showed that the company was aligning to a new philosophy and everything became edgy for no reason. they eventually learned that instead of a prince with an atitude it could be a modern white guy doing scifi to be a edgy prince in his mind like the matrix, which i'm sure focus grouped through the roof in groups of french teens.

This is actually because Ubisoft has this weird corporate rule that they can only make games that take place in modern times and yet they constantly jump through weird hoops to have stuff take place in the past BUT NOT REALLY
