Isn't that game hard as balls?

Probably. Most of these indie games are hard as hell these days.

I finished it several years ago on Switch. Which means it can't have been that hard.

Having said that, I didn't really bother playing to reach every strawberry. I think that would require much more precise timing/platforming which would raise the difficulty significamtly.

My copy of The Sinking City just arrived and I'm stupidly giddy over it because when I opened the case, a map was included. A big fold out map of the city! Even if the game sucks as much as the first time I played it, it doesn't matter because now I have a paper map!

Does it deserve its reputation?

In quality i mean.

Im still playing Blacksad, this adventure game. Just learned its by Pendulo Studios who did Vertigo and the Yesterday games.

Sad to hear they shut all activities earlier in the year. We still need these kinds of games.

Oh Broken Sword 2 is being remade.

Really takes me back to the good old days. Use to love when Working Designs released a game. Some would even have a nice cloth map of the overworld for a JRPG game. Pretty useless in practicality but very cool trinket nonetheless.

Uh oh.

Blacksad has now crashed at the same point 6 times in a row after rebooting the game.

Is this game literally broken?

This was on Reddit regarding the Switch version:

WORKAROUND if anyone is still interested in this buggy mess... i had the same issue after the poker game on switch, tried 6-7 times still crashed at 95%.

CHANGE GAME LANGUAGE in the options menu then continue your game. Mine was on French and switched to English, and it finally loaded.

Hope this works for you. Btw I tweeted their official account with this issue, no one answered. Such a shame

Just had an amazing run in Borderlands online.  This guy I was playing with had some kind of grenade that does insane damage and we finished one of the hardest bosses in the game in about two minutes. I think I sm in the final third of the game, sixty hours into it.

Just went back to the Xenoblade X topics and saw this!

So I have built two extra level 60 skells. The Hades and The White Reaper. The next step is to gather materials for the Zenith Cannon! My end goal is to max out the damage counter when firing my super weapon. One shotting all that stand in my way.



Nine years later. I finally did just that on Xenoblade X Definitive Edition. Everytime I fire I do max damage no matter what. I can one shot everything except 3 superbosses. I am building two other mechs with super weapons. I already did all the missions and sidequests and beat all the super bosses. So after building 3 super mechs, I will start chapter 13. The new chapter added to the Definitive Edition! Will be probably easy with my three godly mechs Grinning

Thanks I read this, people are having repeated crashes in the same area per person. Individually the game crashes at different points which vary from user to user which is very weird.

I followed some advice and deleted and redownloaded it but I haven't tried to see if it works yet.

I was reading about Samus' motorcycle and was reading that the name of the planet is Byrus. Did Retro change the name. Certainly sounds better than the previous name.

Bloober Team is doing a Switch 2 version of the Layers of Fear UE5 remake.

But they are also working on a switch 2 exclusive and another multi-platform game for 2026.

Oh they also released a patch for Cronos on Switch 2 with higher resolution textures.

I would buy Cronos if it was cheaper. A new IP doesn't need to arrive at max price next to high profile IPs.

I've seen that Yakuza Kiwami 2 and 3 are half the price of Yakuza Zero on Switch 2 and they're bundling them together for £50.

Apparently its just a short movie from their animation studio and has no relation to any game or movie project.

Leaker: PlayStation 6 to be released in 2027

10.10.25 - Sony is to launch the PlayStation 6 in 2027. This is claimed by leaker KeplerL2, who has always published accurate AMD leaks in the past.

In his estimation, this is no longer just an option, but already the company's current roadmap. Sony has not confirmed the information.

Maybe these companies should focus on making an affordable console. It might do well in today's economy.

Well, Blacksad keeps crashing at the same point. Nothing works. Its broken.

So how do I claim back my $2 on the eshop?
