I'd probably pay a fair amount. Of your avatar I mean, I have many wooden figurines of my avatar, in different colors as well. They just don't have any compatibility with switch games.

Then again it’s just Boss Borot so there’s plenty of merch out there
 
Made an epic store account to take advantage of the free games since I plan to get a steam deck eventually. I know the epic store will work on it at least

On another note, I know next to nothing about the Warhammer 40k universe, but apparently a lot of stuff was recently announced for it, including new videos about the upcoming games.

 
So … let me start by saying that I LOVE my Nintendo Switch! Best purchase ever and favorite console in a long time. First things first.

However, I signed up for the Steam Deck back in February and just got notice I can actually get one now. Are there some people here who own both? How do these two compare? Do you still go back to your Switch, or mainly play on the Steam Deck now, or the other way round? I’m not sure yet that I’m actually gonna get it, am curious what others have to say.

The first Space Marine is a pretty fun romp imo (it's currently 75% off on Steam if you're interested) so I'm looking forward to seeing more of SM2.

Seriously though, I'm checking Gematsu right now, and we're getting a boomer shooter for the Warhammer 40k universe (titled Boltgun), a 2D run-and-gun platformer (Shootas), and there's a new video for Darktide as well:

It's like... what?

I knew nothing about this series, but a year or two ago, the company behind it seems have started having a media and gaming blitz or lightning strike with this or whatever you call it.

Like, damn, it's apparently everywhere now. 😯

God, the retro shooter looks so fun. I'm not the biggest Warhammer fan, but I'll get this day one. Thanks for sharing!

Home made Sonic looks better than store bought tbh

very sorry @chocolate_supra

No need to apologise, I'm totally supportive of good Sonic-likes. I have Freedom Planet on my WiiU and am very impatiently waiting for the sequel to release on Switch, and I've actually been wondering if Spark 3 would be coming to consoles, which this trailer has confirmed!! So thanks, actually. 😁

Extra Credits made two videos on this actually if you're interested in it:





I haven't really engaged with the series in a while but watching it from the sidelines has been fascinating.

Something like this would be the best I could do.

It has blank bars on the top and bottom to net you a crude 1:1 aspect ratio. What would be ideal is to have the original picture without the text, crop that in a way that makes the horses mostly fit in a 1:1 aspect ratio, and then re-insert the text.
 
Feels like any and all talk of the Xbox showcase next week has evaporated. They just can’t generate the hype of PlayStation or Nintendo.

If I was them I’d drop a short Starfield teaser to get people excited.

As a relatively newly minted Xbox owner I have a hard time getting excited about any new games from them when they've announced like a gazillion already.

I feel like all hype around Playstation is just FFXVI release date really so it’s not like Sony is much better when they are getting carried by one game announced in 2020
 
I'm playing Star Wars Squadrons right now and while it's a good game (although the main focus is multiplayer), I just wish we could have a new Rogue Squadron on Switch. The Star Wars games are doing great on the console and if Nintendo can pay for Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 then I hope they'll do the same for Rogue Squadron.

Hopefully Aspyr will bring us the trilogy on Switch at 1080p/60fps in the near future. I remember playing the hell out of Rogue Leader and Rebel Strike when I was a kid.
 
Still can't fathom the fact that this game sold three copies worldwide with such a banger soundtrack




(Also it'd be nice if one day the songwriter could come out and confirm that yes, it is an hommage to Calamari Inkantation from Splatoon)

What kind of game is card shark? Ive watched 3 trailers and have no idea

From what I understand, it's a narrative game in which you have to do cheat at some card-based games in order to progress in the story. The gameplay is "almost exclusively QTE based" (that's a quote from a preview).

I’m still hyped for Starfield but, honestly, it’s hard to get hyped for other MS projects. Not after Halo Infinite disappointed so much :(

PlayStation generates hype, and then their showcase is some avant-garde shit that bores everyone to tears.
Microsoft generates hype only when their games release.
Nintendo lets the community generate hype and then just announces a date for a showcase.

Hey I bought both versions. Also that was just a popular pop style at that time, I remember several anime songs of a similar style
 
The slew of Bethesda and Obsidian projects alone are enough to get excited about when it comes to Microsoft. Granted, epsecially TES6 is a long way off, but I am in no hurry either way.

It may be just a coincidence, but still the chorus sounds very similar and the dresses are of the same color as well !

Nothing's more fun than taking random premade assets and blowing up their scale by 300x to make interesting landscape features.

MS's "silo" approach gives me at least some confidence that Halo Infinite's issues are an isolated incident. I'm sure that most of their other upcoming stuff will be fine.

Famiibo when?

I’m surprised we don’t even have an amiibo ST here yet… I’d make it myself if I was confident that I’d be able to regularly maintain it, but I can never guarantee that with ADHD, lol. (Plus I’m not sure I care enough to make a “good” opening post; I’m not really a fan of the huge, image-heavy ST posts that are the norm here, anyway. =P)
