Because everyone already has a switch, graphics cards require a second mortgage and ps5/series x are unicorns.

That’s about the going rate for a standard series x at this point

I’ll take “advertisements packaged as news stories” for $500, Alex.

I played 4 hours or so then lost interest. Honestly, it’s a 6/7 of 10 for me other than the fun exchanges between Colt and Julianna, which are great.

@ya_got_me: I agree with most of what you said except, and this is a huge thing for me, the part about Super Metroid being much better than Dread.

Super Metroid is the undisputed king of the series and nothing plays like it. This new game though…it’s in the mix. It’s different, it’s absolutely silky smooth play control , it doesn’t quite have the same heart in the throat feel but it’s not exactly inferior either.

I’m not trying to say it’s the better game but it’s certainly not far behind and the boss battles are some of the best EVER.

This game is awesome. I’m loving it. How it gets an 8 and Deathloop gets a 10 I haven’t a clue.

If you own a Switch it’s a must have, even if you aren’t a fan of 2D Metroid. It blends modern and nostalgia really well.

I wish I could play my switch undocked more but a major problem for me (and maybe others and even Nintendo) is a majority of the switch games I am drawn to are RPGs. And wouldn’t you know it, the tiny text that is so important to the immersion of these games causes me to strain my eyes after a short time playing undocked.

I have my big screen 4K TV and my pro controller and, for me, this is the optimum setup for my RPG enjoyment.

I remember getting the Return of Samus on the original Game Boy for Christmas as a kid and I didn’t put it down til I beat it.

The series makes me feel claustrophobia in a way few video games can. It puts psychological pressure on me to keep moving. I’m excited to experience this.

They had a great match going between Roman and Balor that ended in the worst way. It would’ve been perfect for The Demon to get the pin following that buildup.

But no. WWE gave us a PPV that was ultimately worthless.
