Yeah, I sometimes need to remind my parents as well about how food will expire.

The Yakuza 3 Switch 2 demo is excellent. When I saw the trailer I assumed it was ps5 footage and assumed it wouldn't look like that on switch 2.

It looks fantastic quality and runs buttery smooth on the tv. EDIT: Not brilliant handheld, frame rate slightly sluggish and obviously lower resolution.

Also paid the £5 for the Animal Crossing Switch 2 update.

They also included a new hotel to decorate and I finally tried the Happy Home paradise paid dlc which is fun.

The game looks much better in handheld mode. On the tv you dont really notice the difference unless you zoom the camera in. The framerate now seems locked too, used to bog down on OG switch.

Mouse mode works very well. I just wish I could expand the size of my island and make more mansions and rooms.

Edit: that seems to be what the dlc is for. But I don't want to design micro rooms for people. I want to develop my own properties.

I beat Wolfenstein 2.

It wasn't that bad in the end. With a few small tweaks it could have smoothed out the problems I have with the game.

Irritating stuff like having to press a button to pick up health and ammo. Or trying to reload and having you pick up an empty weapon.

If there had been a proper single shot sniper rifle, some more stealth options. And just change the bone headed AI. And make your path through a level more clear as the objective marker is often garbage.

Well this weekend I did not shoot Hitler. I did, however, grow sweet potatoes and engaged in other farming activity in Story of Seasons: Friends of Mineral Town. They actually played a shit ton of it this weekend. My wife is under the weather and since I didn't have much else to do I think I've already put in like 12 hours

I didn’t shoot Hitler either but I did play LEGO Horizon Adventures and got the platinum trophy for it this weekend. Also played some Onimusha Warlords. Just bought Monster Hunter Stories Deluxe Collection and started some of the first game.

Am looking forward to Onimusha: Way of the Sword and Monster Hunter Stories 3.

I started The Stanley Parable and another playthrough of Batman: Arkham Knight. I actually did kill Hitler last year.

Didn't realise offing Hitler was an option.

I've gotten back into Yakuza Kiwami because of the Kiwami 3 demo.

Wasn't Kiwami 1 originally a ps2 game? It feels really like, don't know how to explain it. It's a bit janky like its an old Dreamcast game, in a good way.

I found it really odd in this brawler to be sneaking into a funeral and searching through bins. Or getting caught in an obvious honey trap for fun.

It almost feels like a wii game, random stuff everywhere and somehow its still at the very least, compelling.

What I don't like is the UI, subtitles, option screens it all looks ancient and ugly. Could also use full voice acting.

Like the soap opera OTT nature of the cutscenes, that's probably its strongest element.

Yakuza 1 was a PS2 game. However Kiwami 1 is a remake that was built for the PS4. I don't remember it feeling janky, but I also played it after Yakuza 0. And while that was a PS4 game, it was basically a pumped up version of a PS3 game since a PS3 and PS4 version got simultaneous releases (at least in Japan).

Maybe janky is the wrong word.

Disparate? Oddly unexpected? Left field? Consistently inconsistent?

Shenmue like. A big mix of little bits here and there that somehow meshes into a whole.
