Best looking switch 1 game by a huge mile
It's very impressive for the hardware.
Have to give a negative slant on all things non PlayStation lol
I wasn't negative?
Yes you were.
He really isn't he says it's impressive for the hardware. If a game looks like that well running on PS5 with the same framerate we would not say it's very impressive now would we. Nonetheless for Switch it looks really good and I look forward seeing the Switch 2 edition as well.
He wasn't. Switch hardware is well known to be weak and considering how old it is , hes right on his comment
We've been discussing games on the internet now for about thirty years, give or take. That is long enough for people to develop PTSD, which I think is why some of this happens. Everything's been so toxic for so long, that naturally, people are going to assume the worst and be suspicious of everyone and everything thing... which is just unfortunate.
If my behaviour was that bad i would be banned from the site?
Youre not bad as in trolling or abusive, just incredibly biased thats all. Thats something you cant get banned for, fortunately for you lol. Have your preferences, but bring objectivity to the table. Another platform or title on another platform getting some shine doesn't take away from PlayStation's achievements. No backhanded compliments lol. Just give credit where its due and leave it at that
For goodness sake. The graphics are only good for a Switch. They're not good for Xbox or PS5, but that's ok because Nintendo never intended the Switch to compete on graphics when they released it.
The graphics look good full stop due to strong artistic vision. In the same way most people would look back at neo geo games or really accomplished snes efforts like FF6 or Chrono Trigger and say that's some great artwork. Not "that looks good.....for the SNES." Lol.
We know the Switch is a weaker piece of hardware. You dont need to give that context to members of a gaming oriented website. It's just very on brand with you to give a backhanded compliment for all that's non PlayStation.
Hopefully this thread will make you aware of the impact of your past contributions.
I don't believe it looks good full stop though. I believe Astro bot looks good full stop, and that's not because of Sony bias. The only Nintendo game I think looks good full stop is LOZ wind waker because of the cell shaded graphics.
Yes, but your behavior wasn't punishable by banning, just annoying.
Looking good. Such a great series
Game looks great. Just like the Gamecube original it's artistic direction will allow this to stand the test of time and still look good with a simple upres in 10 yrs time.
Goodness, it's been years. Nice to finally see this thing on its way.
So happy to see a new Prime game coming out!! Can't wait!
Great year in gaming. Metroid 4, deathstranding2, mgs delta, gta6
Can't wait!!
Still no concrete release month, not even quarter...
Probably will be given in the Switch 2 Direct, giving the timeframe would give hints of when the Switch 2 is releasing since i think we all expect it to launch on both system like Botw
Yeah I expected a release date. No release date definitely makes me think it'll be a cross gen game so they are waiting for the Switch 2 Direct to give the date. Maybe Switch 2 will get both 3D Mario and MP4 on launch day. That'd be a great launch.
I expect Mario Kart as launch game rather than 3D Mario. No matter what, awesome launch prospect with that and Prime 4.
It'd be a big mistake if they only have a big multiplayer game on launch day with no popular AAA single player game (even if Prime 4 is cross gen it obviously isn't a big selling series). Unless they are planning on releasing both MK and Mario on launch day, which would of course be fine. I don't see any good reason why they wouldn't put Mario on launch day. It'd make much more sense to have Mario launch day and MK soon after, than leave gamers with no big popular single player game to buy the system with at launch (unless they have some other huge single player game we don't know about that's gonna be ready at launch. Then again, this is Nintendo and they make bone-headed decisions all the time so MK-only launch wouldn't be surprising, it just wouldn't be smart.
I was hoping for a hint of the Switch 2 release date ;-) I also think that Prime 4 will get the same treatment like Breath of the Wild.
