I think PES has played better than FIFA recently it is just slightly harder to master. At first it feels uncomfortable to play if you are used to FIFA then you gain an understanding of the nuances.
And beat them all.
This was my expectation too. I love Nintendo I expected the consolidation would mean not only mores games but more experimentation.
I agree game’s ages dont’t matter. But disagree over Ocarina, it has not aged well. It has a hell of an influence on many games that followed and great nostalgia factor, but it is filled with frustrating elements, the once expansive world now feels tiny and empty. The endless harassment by Navi is unbearable. I even think Majora’s has aged better, as has Link’s Awakening. The best Zelda is Link Between Worlds in my opinion.
Of course I respect your perspective. We like wha...
Ir is complacency. I think Nintendo are amazingly talented and often innovative in both hardware and software development. In this cycle they’ve had a decent console with. USP and surrounded it with decisions that have screwed over their fans. From expensive remasters being released alongside expensive toys to unlock quality of life improvements, to not addressing persistent hardware issues or delivering undesirable hardware updates at a price in excess of your launch model. You’d think they...

Arc are a good company but it’s a rumour. There is no chance of Square joining Sony you’re grossly overestimate Sony’s wealth.
Puppeteer was really well received. Gravity Rush, Tokyo Jungle, Siren (lost the creator of Silent Hill). Also the work they did alongside From Demon Souls, Bloodborne. As well as no more team Ico games, which coincidentally influenced From’s vision for Demon Souls, a game that launched a genre. Also what happens to titles like the original Ape Escape (all high scoring platformers). Astrobot is great but Japan Studio created very distinct titles. Sony has closed the teams behind Medievil ,Wi...
You could have both decent online and a selection of free games. Nintendo have always been behind the curve regarding online infrastructure . On 3DS your online purchases were locked to a single device. The criticism is valid. Price is not a justification for sloppiness for a large company.
N64 is a great option as that controller makes ports tough on anything outside of native hardware. Same with the GameCube and its shoulder button, GC has some really odd little gems. Chibi Robo, Pikmin, Eternal Darkness.
Wave Race, Paper Mario.
Presumably a plan was pitched to Sony, they probably liked what was tabled and will be aware of who is doing what on the team and their relative experience.
The team is mainly known for doing PC ports.
It takes time to learn. You can save time by using assets created by other players. But there are limitations to the amount that can be done when it comes to logic and graphical complexities I also have not seen many graceful examples of ledge grabbing which is a key component of 3D platformers in my eyes. There are very talented designers on it. It is worth the entry fee just to see what people have done, enjoy that and It may inspire you to put in the hours. The game is often on sale.
It’s a shame, Dishonored Is stunning.
Grow up. You’re buying a game. Enjoy the game. You are rewarding a good developer. People pay for the product. If MS make money off this it can street the direction of the kinds of games released in future. MS was rightly criticised for not having enough high quality titles last Gen. They seem to want to address that. I have some issues with buying a large publisher, but it is solid business sense from MS’s perspective as stated elsewhere.
What do you have against brutalist architecture and robots?
@alb1899
It is more complex than that though, sometimes a company can facilitate a company’s ambitions, I am sure Ninja Theory can do far more creatively with a triple A budget behind them under Microsoft. Would Returnal have existed without the close relationship with Sony? I doubt it. In contrast Bethesda are a company which held the resources to make something like Starfield prior to MS purchasing them. As gamers we don’t benefit as much. It might be a good business dec...
But unless they are producing something amazing, nobody will care. It will result in a backlash. Make something amazing then your game will stand on its own merits, especially with Sony promotion.
Obsidian are amazing. They will still be so after this. If Sony were making an RPG then I’d be excited by this move. But all we know is someone changed jobs.
I like PN03.
