@mikeszekely is Gundam breaker 4 for switch a good game?

In general, yes.  Maybe not quite as good as GB3, but far better than New Gundam Breaker.  The story was decent, if a tad short, and the selection of gunpla kits is pretty solid.  I think my biggest complaint with it is the way you can upgrade parts.  On the one hand, it lets you keep using your favorite gunpla, but on the other hand once you have your favorite gunpla it makes getting new parts less interesting because you're only going to wind up using them as upgrade fodder.  I've heard others complain that it can get a bit repetitive, but as a Musou fan I think I'll never get tired of hacking my way through swarms of mooks.

That said, I played on PC, where I could run it on my desktop maxed out at 1440p at over 100fps, and could still stay at or above 60fps at 1080p medium on an ROG Ally.  I'd be concerned about performance on Switch, which is capped at 30fps, but if you're ok with that and the Switch is your only option then go for it.

Thanks for your opinion. I know you're very familiar with the series. Black friday has a sale for breaker for switch and ps5, i ordered the switch as i would like some portable option to grind. I sold my steamdeck or I would've brought the pc version as that seems like the best choice. ps5 has more clarity but i can't take it on the go.

Well, the fall Steam sale has finally begun.  Not the hugest deals for me, but I'm picking up Space Marine II and Silent Hill 2 at 20% off, plus Metaphor: ReFantasio, Visions of Mana, and Star Wars Outlaws at 25% off.

Yeah I grabbed Outlaws for Series X on Amazon for $40, at that price I'll bite, It also just got a huge update that seems to have improved quite a few things, I'll definitely be putting some hours in this weekend after all the family crap.

Didn't even know this was a thing but Rollercoaster Tycoon Classic just dropped on Switch today. I haven't played a Rollercoaster Tycoon game in well over a decade, I wasn't interested in the sequel ones on Xbox One, but I played the classic version on PC for hours when I was a kid. I think it's $25, at that price, on Switch, I'll absolutely grab it, that's a killer combo, classic RT on a neat little mobile gaming platform. I mostly play docked anyway so it's basically just a console version of my favorite classic, that's awesome.

Mai's teaser for SF6:

Mai's "assets" seem on point as usual.

New Indy game looks awesome, and reviews are surprisingly solid, I'm excited to check it out Monday, looks like a win for Gamepass.

Late to the game on this one, I know, but I picked up Project Wingman on Steam and cannot figure out how to get it to register my HOTAS.  The online forums from a couple years ago have been no help.  Has anyone been able to get their HOTAS to work in game?  I refuse to play with keyboard and mouse.

Coincidentally (or maybe not), the base game is currently on sale with an 80% discount on Steam.
