Video Game General 2: Definitive/Remastered Edition

I always imagined Mario hitting the blocks with his head.

You tried to run me through. Hold on! Think again, don’t you know what you’re starting?
 
Also in Galaxy Mario has the spin attack which is still punching in a way since fits are used.

@Scrabbleman  
Kirby with a gun!  

@igotnopicks  
I was considering posting that one, but liked the other. Glad someone posted it.

The Magic/Finesse builds in Amalur are as broken as I remember.
 
Excellent.

I finally won a crown in Fall Guys! \ :D /

New controller came in.
 
Works great so far.
 
Surreal to be playing New Horizons without drifting.

@Cyborg_pony  
And it’s still awkward…

Microsoft/Xbox announces that it has purchased Bethesda and Zenimax
 
Estimate to have cost $7.5 billion for this deal

Hope they don’t get the Rare treatment.

Microsoft is really reaching Disney levels of acquisitions and monopolization if they’re gonna start buying out entire companies

@Kiryu-Chan  
What company doesn’t want to have monopolies?

One of the big electronics shops in my country is in the middle of its September sale, and they put out Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Rescue Team DX and Pokemon Shield (not Sword tho) for 25$ each. Not only will that finally be an opportunity for me to give that game a fair chance (after all the bad rep it got, there was no way I was buying it full price…so, knowing Nintendo, that would be never outside of second hand), but I’m almost tempted to buy a couple and sell them on ebay or something.

@shinigamiPeter  
I’d by a copy of Shield off of you at that price.

This will really hit Sony, losing out on future fallout and tes titles right at the launch of a new generation will mean allot more people moving to xbox, though it’s possible starfield of TES6 will still come out,
 
this also raises the question though if Bethesda was just bought outright though sheer scope of the offer or if it was struggling due to the nature of it’s games just costing to much to recoup without aggressive post release monetization when sold for 60$,

Microsoft buying ZeniMax/Bethesda means those games will no longer be on PlayStation? SCARED

@Thanotos Omega  
Sony still has all those JRPGs, don’t they?

Sony is sitting on a lot of IPs they refuse to revive.

@Thanotos Omega  
The sport games laughs at that theory.

I’m scared…

@xxzxxzxxzzx  
That’s good. It means you’re likely carefully considering your future console purchase. Although I’d wait a year or two before buying one. They should have all the bugs worked out by then.

@xxzxxzxxzzx  
I doubt that they will become Xbox exclusives, though this is the video game industry, and anti-consumer practices is the name of the game here.
