Bluebird Hewitt 1,282 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 I see the Nintendo and Microsoft partnership is coming along well. Cuphead has been announced for Switch and can be linked to Xbox Live achievements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I too am curious how it works because if this is a way to get the first year to test the service then I think its a good move. I wonder if this also means that we will at some point see Nintendo and Amazon partner for the server backend for all this. I think its smart considering they can host so much better on AWS and Amazon wins too since people have to get their Prime Service for the first year.

Subscriber Mel81x+ 3,613 Posted April 3, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted April 3, 2019 https://kotaku.com/an-easy-mode-has-never-ruined-a-game-1833757865 interesting little debate about adding an easy mode to games that may need them. I don't think its a bad idea for the game they are talking about, Sekiro, but as stated in the comments section thats not FromSoftware's way of doing things and to change that would mean that they then have to go about finding some way to change the mechanics to match the difficulty level. I'm not opposed to more inclusion but to destroy the foundation of a game is a bit absurd and there are plenty of other games out in the realm for play as well, I don't think the idea that you need ninja skills to play a game and feel the accomplishment after is a bad thing at all.

Bluebird Hewitt 1,282 Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 For anyone interested, the original Phoenix Wright trilogy has come out on PS4, Xbox One and Switch. Little bit steep at £27, especially as it's a port of a port of a port but with crisper graphics and adjusted for HDTV displays, but they're worth a go if you like linear story based type games with courtroom drama with some investigation and interrogation scenes.

Subscriber nudge+ 15,325 Posted April 9, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted April 9, 2019 Respawn's Jedi-themed Star Wars game is being revealed later this week The tagline for Jedi: Fallen Order says the game "tells an original Star Wars story around a surviving Padawan set shortly after the events of Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith." It's a dark time for the Jedi, and they're being hunted down following the Empire's grim Order 66 policy. Chris Avellone, who worked on KOTOR 2 among many other PC classics, confirmed back in early March that he worked on Jedi Fallen Order with Respawn. Unusually for Respawn, creators of the excellent Titanfall games and Apex Legends, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is singleplayer-only, which the official Star Wars site confirmed shortly after announcement. That was surprising news, given that the studio's first Titanfall game was multiplayer-only—the sequel, of course, added an excellent (if extremely brief) solo campaign. And yes, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order feature lightsaber duels. It'll be interesting to see how Respawn interprets them, given its experience of punchy, physical action in Titanfall. This is almost certainly going to be a third-person action game. Stig Asmussen, previously of the God of War series on PlayStation, announced in 2016 that he was working on Respawn's Star Wars project, and called it third-person in his blog. https://www.pcgamer.com/star-wars-jedi-fallen-order-release-date/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluebird Hewitt 1,282 Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 As much as I'd like to be interested in it, it's published by EA and that alone makes me not too interested at present. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never played a Respawn game I didn't enjoy though. Let's see if that holds true now that they're making serious money for EA and this is a Disney product, though. But until they make a shite game, I'll always be excited to give a Respawn game a go. Titanfall 1 and 2 are criminally underrated titles, imo, and some of the best shooters in recent years. Apex Legends I was worried I wouldn't like, being a BR and being made on the corpse of Titanfall 3 (I hope Apex's success means that there will be another installment of Titanfall though, that series deserves more recognition). Having said all that, DICE and BioWare used to be good developers that EA demolished... so let's see how it goes now that EA is having a non-DICE developer make a Star Wars game, after the last 2 EA installments of Star Wars games were really just flashy loads of shite (the Battlefront reboot abominations).

This right here is a good reason to pick it up and its a single-player game at that so that makes me even more interested. Agree about Titanfall but I felt like the first Titanfall was a bit better than the second that may also be due to the fact that it was more novel at the time. That campaign in Titanfall 2 however is very very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to get Cuphead for the Switch sadly I played it on the PC and finished it so no point. Hellblade on the other hand looked promising but once again already played so no point really. I like that they are making ports of these though which is great news for Switch owners who want to get these games on their consoles.

That's great news though - it's one of the best (imo) publishers in recent years with a legendary writer for some incredible games.

It's even more weirder how they seems totally oblivious to it by saying "all change is met with some kind of resistance". I mean if thats the case why dont they put a go-pro on their head and walk around projecting their lives to everyone on the globe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluebird Hewitt 1,282 Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 EA have confirmed that there won't be any microtransactions or loot boxes added before or after Fallen Order is launched. https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2019-04-13-star-wars-jedi-fallen-order-is-a-single-player-story-game-with-no-multiplayer-and-no-microtransactions While that sounds great, EA are not the most trustworthy of companies and I'll have to see it to believe it unfortunately.
