8 hours into Hogwarts Legacy.

Really impressed, its a great port.

Cyberpunk has better visuals in many respects but the same can be said of Hogwarts over Cyberpunk.

It's got a very stable framerate and maintains a higher resolution than Cyberpunk and doesn't dip as often.

It's really cool to see such a large open world with this rendering level run so smoothly on a portable 1cm thick device.

Already got me salivating for the next Xenoblade game.

Enjoyable game too, love exploring and flying was cool.

The map is garbage and there are way too many menus but that doesn't significantly impact my enjoyment of the game.

It's beyond wrong to put a Qbert arcade game inside Ghostbusters with a "X Interact" and it not be playable! Just wrong!

I finished visions of Mana this weekend, and started Yar's Rising, the Yar's Revenge follow up that they somehow turn into a metroidvania.

I also streamed Sonic Colors for a while yesterday. I think this might have been the first time I've seen a remaster that looks worse than the original.

That reminds me that I have the PS4 version that I still need to play. I never played the original.

He leads you into dangerous stuff.

Awaiting a backstab.

How do you do these assignments that want a potion for example. There's no direction indicator?

I don't have the recipe? The potion shop doesn't sell it?

Then they want like creature parts, no direction indicator, shop doesn't sell it

Usually they straight up tell you to go to this shop or talk to someone.

September looks pretty good for Switch 2 releases. Outlaws, Silkroad, Cronos, Death on the Nile, Final Fantasy Tactics .

I was thinking this over the weekend, I had no idea Silksong, Outlaws and Cronos were coming out so soon.

In fact the first footage of Outlaws dropped on YouTube an hour ago and it defies expectations by not looking like total shit.

The framerate is solid, even outdoors and according to two sources who are watching the footage it uses raytracing for everything, on Switch 2.

We heard people scoffing about Switch 2 ever using Ray Tracing, was it even posible etc.

They don't for assignments.

I had to break open the map, find potions class, go to potion desk, look up potion recipe. Then go to the potion shop and neeps to buy all the ingredients.

There's no objective markers either.

Oh and for a follow up assignment with no indication I had to lay down some serious cash for the recipe at a potion shop.

In what I can only assume was the easiest path forward, when Sega did the remaster from that original Wii version, the graphics ended up getting really washed out. So Sonic Colors is actually less colorful than it was 15 years ago.

I played it for a couple hours yesterday afternoon. The colors look good me on my OLED. I can't seem to get a good handle on the flow of the gameplay, though. Having a slide button instead of a roll is throwing me off. Im enjoying the game well enough so far.

Apparently Star Wars Outlaws on switch is 60 USD and includes all the dlc, which is 100 USD total on other systems.

If it was a physical release I would probably buy, play and resell it.

Because its game key cards I'll wait for a digital sales before Satisfying my morbid curiosity.

I rarely go to fast food anymore because the prices are insane, but I went to Wendy's today since I didn't have any lunch made.

I ordered a small Dave's double combo, but was told by the cashier that "they could only do medium or large. Is that okay?" I asked them why they can't do small. After about 20 seconds, she finally said "Okay, I'll give you the small." Like she was doing me a favor and she wasn't nearly as friendly afterwards.

WTF? No problem, Wendy's. I shall not return.
