Tried the Resi 2 remake but it’s hard? I don’t enjoy getting scared anymore.
Have God of War ready to play which I might start later tonight.
I'm also playing Bard's Gold, just because it looks like something I would have played on PC in the 90s.
Basically spending every spare second of my life on Tropico 6. I can’t think of a game series I have a deeper and more abiding love for than Tropico.
It's a VERY hard game in places, but (and I can't believe I'm saying this because I roll my eyes when people say it about Dark Souls etc) there really is a wonderful sense of satisfaction when you finally beat a boss after dozens of attempts. I also really appreciated how open the world was, because generally when I hit a frustrating area or boss there was the option to explore somewhere else and potentially find a new charm or upgrade.Back to me though. Hollow Knight is a little hard for me. I guess you really need to buy these maps and bookmark things. I really wish I wouldn't die and lose all my coin though - I defeated some obese monster only for it to pull a Game of Thrones esque "all rise" moment and the half a dozen jumping crones finished me off.
I really like the look of Hades and it seems like a fun dungeon kinda game. Not sure when it’s actually coming out.
As I have mentioned elsewhere, I'm playing Pokemon Shield and it's annoying me. I'm aware that Pokemon has always done this but the constant railroading and restrictions on exploration are much more objectionable on a big screen. It feels like a kids game which wants to spoon feed you everything so you won't get confused.
Besides some of the obvious ones (Odyssey is Mario's blockbuster moment, Smash, Splatoon 2 and Tetris would be my recommendations for young'uns.), if they're old enough Mario+Rabbids is regularly on sale at around £15 and is delightful. I really enjoyed the multiplayer.
Retro racer Horizon Chase Turbo is another that is often deeply discounted and that's super fun and easy to pick up. If more advanced, FAST Racing Neo looks gorgeous and also often on sale.
Also, download the demos and see what they gravitate to and like best.

Hop needs to fuck off and die. As does Bede (the guy masquerading as someone's nan in a long pink puffer jacket)Lad got a switch for Christmas so I've been playing Pokémon Shield & Smash (badly)
FF7 remake release date pushed back to April 10th
Omg I started Tetris99 on Switch online. Nice idea, fun for Eastern Europe banger soundtrack, almost entirely random how well you do

Don't mind, long as they get it right
Anyone going for First Class edition? I can't justify that kind of money even though it's my favourite game of all time
It’s sooooo easy to accidentally drop the block thanks to the tiny buttons, really hateful. I ragequit tonight.
my best is still in the 20s :/ my friend made it to #5 but he’s Japanese so it’s in his dna
It's quite a lot of money for not much stuff. I opted for the Cyberpunk 2077 Deluxe Edition instead. Both of them are coming out within DAYS of each other now![]()
Unfortunately, Cyberpunk has been pushed back until September.
The developers adjusted the sensitivity pretty much accounting for the off d-pad let alone the buttons on the JoyCons
SorB said what he said!What are you trying to say, dear?![]()
