TheDCD: Y’know, playing Asphalt 3D, I couldn’t help but think back to the days I was initially playing Cruis’n USA on the Nintendo 64. It’s in a similar boat. I remember playing the game on superior hardware (Cruis’n in the arcade, Asphalt on the iPad) and then, upon seeing this version, something is amiss. And I mean completely amiss, to the point that you don’t even want to stay on the road. And considering that it’s a driving game, seriously, what the hell else are you supposed to do?
Games Asylum "The Switch’s launch line-up may have been slim, but at least there wasn’t a ‘day one dud’ lurking alongside the likes of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Bomberman R. Damning praise, we know, but there’s truth in those words.Previous Nintendo consoles haven’t been quite as fortunate as the Switch, with plenty of clutter arriving alongside such system seller as Super Mario 64, Luigi’s Mansion and Zelda: The Twilight Princess. It’s easy to see why publishers think they can get away with it. Console launches generate a huge buzz, and so it’s easy for day one adopters to get caught in the hype and pick up two or three games on a whim"
We gamers love a bargain. They give us a chance to try new gaming experiences, ones we would have deemed too risky at RRP. Or, in some cases, try more flawed software when the price is right. After all, surely we’d be more satisfied having purchased a flawed game for less, even if it doesn’t change the underlying issue that it’s a bit, well, rubbish.
Every year, countless parents buy their children the wrong games. This Bitmob series hopes to remedy the holiday blues by recommending what not to buy.
Haha... I thought from the title that this would be a "Don't buy your kids a 3DS" article.
My parents bought me Asphalt when I got my regular DS for Christmas however many years ago...Too bad they didn't see an article like this...
