I feel like I get more than enough Splatoon just looking at that obnoxious signature. LOL

I know. This sig drives me mad but also it's funny because it's annoying like Pearl the girl. Splatfest is fun. Its a bit weird though. I'm so uses to using the U and a big tv screen. It works portably but the gyro aiming feels off till I get the chance to change the sensitivity. And it's a game that throws a lot of on screen junk at you so it's hard to see things clearly when everything is flying about like crazy and giant countdown numbers are obscuring the screen. On the big screen it's fine but I'm not sure about the gyro. It's more responsive but less stable and prone to drift. I often found myself spinning in one direction too fast then over compensating the other way and getting killed. Also the missiles special kills no one, total bunk. Also found a problem with the dualies, you use the jump button to dodge left and right but that means when I wanted to jump left or right he'd dodge instead.

splatfest is good.  A lot of connection problems, which you wouldn't expect from a tentpole title one week from launch.

Had some fun with splatoon, without rewards it feels kind of pointless so I'll wait till next week to play more. Dual splat I am not that good at. I am great with splattershot and the roller.

Wait...I thought StarFox Adventures had Toy Story level visuals? Haha...close enough. Seriously though that last Rare game for Nintendo still to this day has some slick ass production. For 2002 that shit was mind melting.

Why were we paired against the same team in splatfest? Ice cream vs ice cream.

Anyone notice that the Splatoon 2 testfire let you change weapons in between matches without quitting out. In this Splatfest it was back to the old way. And still no custom load-outs?

You could really tell who were experienced players. There were a few virgins who were hapless and easy to kill. I got a lot of kills using splat grenades. I found the dualies were great but the range was a bit shitty so it was hard to gain traction unless you were super close. The Splashdown special was good but hard to gauge which will come out on top when faced with another Splashdown. One time I initiated mine a second after and the other player died as I was airborne when his hit. Then when trying again I was hit in mid air in the middle of my Splashdown by his one which was iniated a second earlier.

Lol ice cream. Won. Just found out 76% of the votes were for ice cream so that's why we were playing against each other. Also this is amazing

I got inspired by Digital Foundry's recent video on the history of Quake, so I decided to break out the N64 and get into some Quake 2 which I never knew was it's own standalone game that actually had nothing to do with the PC version besides setting. Kind of like Far Cry Instincts on the og XBOX was totally different from the PC version of FC. They said the N64 version of Quake 2 was really cool and still worth playing, so I wanted to check it out.

Well, it is really cool and it's pretty solid in every way for an N64 game. But man is it hard. Not because of gameplay, but because I forgot just how difficult shooters were back in the N64 days for the simple reason that, well, aiming is non existent. Trying to use the grenade launcher in this game is near impossible....just shoot and HOPE it hits something besides yourself. There's really no auto aim either, so unlike Rare's shooters you don't get a nice helping hand. I would really love to see all these N64 FPS games released digitally on Switch and redone with dual analog controls....but of course that won't happen.

It's weird because Quake 3 on Dreamcast basically has the exact same controls as the N64 but it's so much easier to aim on the Dreamcast. Probably just because the game ran so much smoother with a stable frame rate.
