Just been playing Limbo with the limited time I have. I think I'll shelve Wolfenstein" Old Blood for now since I have Doom for PS4 on the way in the mail.

Then I'll balance Insed with that for a while.  Not entirely sure what format to get Inside on. MS has shown good faith with the backward compatibility and I really wonder about Steam these days and if they are in it for the long haul. Irrational, I know.

I've been playing the first Assassin's Creed on the Xbox One this week....wanted to see how it ran on it, and it runs great. Still a really good looking game all these years later. I'm trying to play all the way through it to see if I can get all the remaining achievements.

Just had a totally awesome Splatoon hour. Crushed it. So I planted a beacon and sniper dude shows up to destroy it. He's totally oblivious to his surrounding as he focused in the beacon. I sneak up and obliterate him. So I think, let's try again. I do it 3 more times with the same result. You plant bait, camp then nail them LOL. Such a great game. Steelo, Archie, Edge, play wit me.

Any amount of time I put into learning Splatoon will be time not spent on Rocket League.

So star fox is a good game that controls like shit and never really finds good footing. Really the controls are just stupid, I can't find any benefit to them. When I am looking at the tv screen and try to play it like star fox the motion controls don't let it feel right. If I switch to the hybrid mode any time it goes into freemode where looking At the pad is needed I can't play with that so I put back motion. Freemode at times has the camera on the side so you basically have to fly and shoot with the pad.

The other vehicles have similar issues but it depends of the vehicle. The Walker is cool and feels like tails from SA2. I like being able to transform on the fly. The gyrocopter is terrible. I did a whole level flying around slowly, dropping a tiny robot to hack shit. It was an exploration level, wtf this is an action game. Totally out of place.

There is ton of rewards and medals for high level play but I for the life of me can't figure out how to play at a high level. There are medals given for hidden objectives which is a pain, give me a hint of how to get them.

When it works and feels like star fox yeah it's great. The tank level felt like the most normal level so far without any of the forced pad watching and it was fantastic. But most of the time I feel like I am just getting by the levels cause they are easy, not really skillfully.

Played AC Amiibo Festival once again with the family. It is quite fun! It's not only the board game, you can also unlock stuff like clothing or emotes for your amiibo (it saves your exp to the amiibo after each completed game), and there are special minigames that are available at certain points of the game. We had a blast freaking out when the turnip market plummeted and we were all loaded up with turnips hoping to land in a spot with high selling value. It is not a deep game, and it is not for single playing, but it is quite fun for what it is.

Forget you guys have even seen this. This is a smaller version of that plug and play genesis that was released a few years ago, completed with the 40 generic games like chess. The emulation on this is not good and the sound is even worse. It's shit.

All I played is the training and it took going through each one about 4-5 times each. Once it clicked I was doing awesome shit. I don't look at the cockpit view at all. With motion control it plays like classic starfox so I dont quite understand the problems you are having. Have you tried inverting the left stick axis so it matches the axis of the motion controls? I loved the gyrocopter personally.
