In my history as a gamer, I’ve always felt the need to buy almost every console and portable on day one. Sometimes this works out -- I had a blast playing SSX and Timesplitters when I bought my PS2, Call of Duty 2 with Xbox 360, or Twilight Princess with Wii. There’s usually at least a game or two at launch that keeps me busy until some other quality titles come along in the following couple of months. However, my history with portables isn’t quite as positive as my experiences with consoles.
I learned to love my DS once great titles like New Super Mario Bros. and Professor Layton came out, but the first year or so wasn’t generous in the way of quality games. I played Twisted Metal: Head-On for a couple of weeks after buying my PSP, but very few games in the system’s lifespan held my attention after that (the main exceptions being Lumines and the God of War titles).
Part of my issue with portables is one many gamers face - I don’t travel an insane amount, I don’t want to carry the system around with me everywhere, and I don’t want to sit on my couch and play a portable while I have a 360 and PS3 ready to go in the same room.
This image basically confirms that in Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon we will be seeing an alternate story. While it has been stated by Nintendo multiple times that this was the case, they were never really clear on it.
Why in fucks name did the designs for the mc make it through the planing stages of development? They are by far the worse thing pokemon have produced.
but...you customize your own characters now? l dont like that boys neck. holy shit it's about as strong as a twig
oh for sure. The franchise just shits on the male version more and more per new entry, lol
It's so weird being that the player base is 70/30 male you know. You would think that they would give the males a better choice selection.
Hey! Pikmin is brand new adventure set on the Nintendo 3DS as Captain Olimar's ship crash lands on a mysterious alien planet.
Every time I see 'released on Steam' my heart sinks. Why don't these guys release on GOG instead?
Beware Space Pirates. Beware Metroids. Samus Aran is back and she is locked & loaded.
vita seems like the most interesting portable gaming system...3ds is cool but it should be 150.00 not 250.00 .....iphone shouldent even be in the convo....its a PHONE ..WITH MINI GAMES...not a console
I find it odd (and all too typical) that the author says "It's cool to play old console games on the 3DS like Ocarina, SF4, and Starfox. It's slow now, but just wait for games like Mario Kart, Super Mario Bros, and Luigi's Mansion!"
And then on the next page, when talking about the PS Vita the author says "Gee, I hope they don't put a whole bunch of console games on this thing".
The double standard here is rich.
