I got a problem lol. I can't find my Switch after I made the move. I didn't look for too long last night but it's somewhere in the basement. 

Perfect excuse to get the new OLED!

You really are a strange fellow

 

Lol, how is that strange? I NEVER got into handheld gaming in all my years as a gamer. Even when my buddies got the first Gameboy etc I had 0 interest in that. I prefer playing on a bigger screen.

With an attitude like that I hope you never find it or if you do find it it's covered in elephant feces :nottalking:

 

:(

But if you hold that screen close to your face it will appear bigger than it would on any TV.

I would need a better sleeping arrangement that I have now to be able to use a handheld and enjoy it. Where do you guys play your games?

Couch and sometimes laying in bed

I play in bed, you just get a nice back pillow and lean back and watch tv and game

 

Also I really want to play this but Hogwarts is taking over all my gaming time since I can play that handheld and on tv.

I don't have a bed right now. I have a cot and it's not the greatest thing and I definitely couldn't game laying on it.

Well I would say before this game the first priority should be a bed

I will find my Switch. I'll play on my TV. My parents are going to help me buy a bed soon, though.

Nope. I played Dread but didn't enjoy it to much.

I swear we discussed this in the other thread, lol. 
 

But yeah, I’ve heard it still feels very much like Metroid, despite being in 3D. 

Oh man if we did I’m sorry lol. I feel like you’ll like it tho.

At the rate this game is reviewing, the 2023 GotY race could very well be over already :lol:

 

Hogwarts is better and would have scored higher if it weren't for the controversy. Play that before making comments like that.

I'd rather gouge my own eyes out.

 

Haha. You do make me laugh so I'll let this slide!

 

I can't find my pro controller with my Switch. :(

Hogwarts is a solid Harry Potter game, the best Harry Potter game in fact and reviews reflect that. Anything involved in "the controversy" did not review it.

Metroid Prime is one of the best games of all time, Harry Potter will never beat it.

I haven't played MP is 20 years so I cannot make an accurate opinion I guess.  I'm gunna gave to buy a pro controller if I want to play Prime which absolutely blows.

Its a welcome reminder that first-person Metroidvanias are rarer than you’d think.

  We also just last weekend bought an LGC2 42" to replace out NU8000 samsung 50" for the bedroom. It was too big and looked stupid where we had it on our dresser. The new TV is wall mounted all wires hidden {In wall} and is just sleek looking. Love, Love, LOVE!! these LGCseries TV's. Note: I have never gamed in my bedroom other than handheld!

 

   Best of luck not finding that Switch......

Hogwarts Legacy will be known as one of the better games based on an existing IP, whether TV/Movie, or Literature. Metroid Prime though will always remain as one of the greatest gaming experiences of all time. :devil:

Struggling with the map. I know there is a learning curve but it's just very confusing. I'll get used to it but it's annoying to say the least. The rest of the experience is just awesome. Having 2 sticks in this FPS is really an HUGE UPGRADE. The game looks and runs beautifully!

Fuck, I hate bad maps. I need to buy a pro controller to play this. I might wait now until I fully beat Hogwarts.

I think Doom Eternal's map is worse to navigate than Prime's, and I'm sure some former Retro people actually worked on Eternal. No excuse really.
