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. Quote

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. Quote
mikeszekely Posted November 27, 2024 Posted November 27, 2024 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. Quote
Tking22 Posted November 27, 2024 Posted November 27, 2024 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.

Tking22 Posted December 5, 2024 Posted December 5, 2024 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. Quote
Tking22 Posted December 6, 2024 Posted December 6, 2024 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. Quote
Knight26 Posted December 12, 2024 Posted December 12, 2024 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. Quote

jvmacross Posted January 3 Posted January 3 (edited) Bought my son a Meta Quest 3 for Xmas..... I admit that waiting for a Fighter plane VR game to come out for the PSVR2 helped make the decision to buy the MQ3 easier... Additionally, one of the PSVR2 controllers for it went bad and had to get it repaired.... Anways....right off the bat I found 3 VR fighter plane games and I'm looking for a space fighter VR game now.... Also....watched the 4K DYRL that was posted on MW recently on the MQ3 and it was like watching it on a giant screen at the movie theater.....really nice! Anyone else have the MetaQuest VR and can recommend some games? It also came with a Batman games....looks good but have not spent too much time on it... Edited January 3 by jvmacross Quote

It also came with a Batman games....looks good but have not spent too much time on it... Well, Beat Saber is pretty much the VR standard bearer at the point. The simple premise (chop cubes to the bear if the music) is easily understood and quickly picked up, but still fun and even a decent workout. Pistol Whip is sometimes described as Beat Saber with guns. You auto scroll through a level while faceless baddies attack you. Shoot (or pistol whip, hence the name) the baddies before they get you, but to get the best score you're going to time your shots to the beat of the music. Superhot VR is one of the more unique experiences I've played. Like Pistol Whip you need to take out the faceless baddies before they take you out. But the catch here is that the world around only moves when you do, allowing you to do stuff like punching a guy, snatching his gun out of the air as he drops it, leaning out of the way of an incoming shot from his buddy before returning fire, then throwing the empty gun to take out a third guy. But actually my favorite game on the Quest is Walkabout Mini Golf. It's pretty much what it sounds like... you play mini golf. And while you can use the trigger to teleport to your ball, you actually can use the joystick to "walk" from hole to hole. The base game comes with 8 courses, and each course has a regular daytime version and a harder night version. The day versions have a hidden ball to find on each hole- once you've found a ball you can swap out your basic white ball for it. The night courses have foxhunts where once you find all the clues you can get a unique putter. You can buy additional courses that are added periodically- as of this post, I think there are 22 add-on courses, for a total of 30. Courses run the gamut from something that could totally be a real mini golf course somewhere to the utterly fantastic, like a course on a space station or one that runs through the island lair of the villain of '60s-style spy movie with a thing for lasers.

JB0 Posted January 4 Posted January 4 Most of my Quest 3 time is split between Synth Riders(my music game of choice) and Elite: Dangerous via PC linkage. The ability to connect to a PC and play any SteamVR game is not to be underestimated. That said, I'm still mad at Meta for erasing everyone's Rift homes. I had a nice place in cyberspace, and now I'm cyberhomeless. Quote
azrael Posted January 8 Posted January 8 It's been hinted at but here's the official announcement coming out of CES 2025: SteamOS expands beyond Steam Deck - The Legion Go S - Powered by SteamOS is the first officially licensed third-party handheld powered by SteamOS Now the question is, who will make the best SteamDeck.

It's a violent, rhythm based game and if I try to describe the premise, it'd sound like I was tripping nuts. It's like a mix of S.T.U.N. Runner and Guitar Hero. Quote
Old_Nash_II Posted January 11 Posted January 11 I found this recent gameplay today And we lost a good game Quote
