It's an end of an era. Ape Escape was one of my favorite games on the PS1 and Gravity Rush showed potential.

Bad gameplay, too much grinding, and terrible quests.

Off the top of my head, Prince of Persia 2008.

I guess sometimes but only for Nintendo games and a few games that don't have as many shipped copies such as 13 Sentinals.

Compared to 5-6 years ago, I am buying fewer new games at full price.

@nintendoboy16 why bring up a video from a news story from 30 years ago?

As for the joycons, maybe but the average consumer doesn't seem to care.

I haven't played Death Stranding yet. However, every MGS game after 3 was disappointing and/or terrible.

Also, I wasn't a fan of SOTC's controls. Granted the last time I played it was on the PS2.

Not outside the internet.

• Age of Empires II > StarCraft.
• Company of Heroes was the best game of 2006.
• Uncharted 4 was underwhelming
• Kojima's last masterpiece was MGS3.
• ICO > SOTC.
• God of War 2018 is the only good GOW game.
• Nintendo as a business sucks.
• I didn't care for Hotline Miami.
• I loved the OG Xbox Duke Controller.
