Doom is more like Halo now, I approve.


I don't like that you can't reload your weapons. I like the animation of reloading and the way you have to choose when to reload tactically in most fps.


Visually it's not bad, it's soft but it's smooth AF.


Mclassic makes it sharper, but boots the colour so much I have to alter the gamma.


Motion controls work well. Is there a sniper rifle in this game?

Doom 2016 would be a much slower game if it had weapon reloading. I like that it doesn't and let's you just fire like crazy.

Vortex Rifle is the sniper rifle in the game. You can also get a tactical scope upgrade for your assault rifle early on which works similar to a sniper rifle too.

Happy New Year, future boy!

A belated happy new year.

Interesting Switch 2 Patent suggesting upscaling from 1080p to reduce game sizes to fit on the 32gb max size game carts Switch 1 supports.

They say a 4k 60gb game can render at 1080p and be 20gb big and then use what we assume to be DLSS to upscale to 4k.

What more interesting is that there's talk of training Switch 2 to learn how to better upscale your game by using screenshots from the 4k builds of other systems?

It sounds more plausible as the recent rtx 3050 8gb ver videos I've seen show that it can basically run anything at 1080p at high to ultra settings at a decent framerate. Though the shader cores may be reduced on Switch 2 as well as other compromises. The 12gb of RAM suggests it will output at higher resolutions though.

I have seen the rtx 3050 doing 2k and 4k using dlss and running at decent framerates. But we don't know how good Switch 2s cpu will be. Personally I don't have a problem with 1080p on a 4ktv. Most Switch games are sub 1080p anyway. And I can always use Mclassic to get 2k anyway,  but that doesn't help with muddy textures and poor framerates.

Switch 2 shouldn't have that problem.

Yeah, the Bubble Bobble universe is really interesting. Taito took that main concept and then built on it in some unexpected ways, and then would end up merging a few of those ideas together for even more games. I was never a giant Bubble Bobble fan, but one of the later games, Parasol Stars, was one of my favorites on the TurboGrafx 16.

I think I have that game on my TG-16 Mini. I'll have to check it out soon.

I only ever played the original Bubble Bobble arcade game but I loved it. It would be great if they released some kind of compilation for current systems.

I have arcade Bubble Bobble on Switch. I need to play it more; I never played it back when it was new.
