It has come to my attention that there’s a subgenre of metalcore called “nintendocore” influenced by old school gaming :thinking:

its amazing how much konami sucks now when people are making games better then they are. Blood stained ritual of the night, and now Valfaris is the better contra. Cant wait for someone to make a better silent hill.

I wish Horse the Band was actually good. :frowning:

It’s because they’ve made more money in pachinko resorts in the last 10 or so years than they’ve ever made with their video game side of the company.

The irony is the allure of the pachinko resorts is that they’re usually themed off a video game IP that Konami owns.

I saw that on my recommended, and I have no idea why anyone would buy that when Blazing Chrome is the best Contra game to come out in years even if Konami didn’t make it.

Oh boy…im 3 minutes into this vid and I’m getting a feeling that Capcom did not optomize the ports for these games on the switch. They’re doing a lot of prefacing before they even start to actually talk about the games performance.

Edit: 14 minutes in now…and I’m facepalming.

Alternatively if you don’t want to support Walmart and I wouldn’t blame you, Best Buy has it for sell as well and it comes with a plush of the Prince. The price difference is $30 though. And I have no idea how big the plush is. And it doesn’t specify if it’s a digital or physical copy.

Yeah…I’m sticking with the Steam/PC version of RE5.

im hoping a 3rd party company makes a silent hill type game, the last 2 or 3 games were bad. At least RE2 remake was the last good horror game I played. Other then that I cant think of that many good action horror games besides FEAR and dead space, but both of those seem dead also.

Have you played the Evil Within games? They are solid horror games. The second game moreso than the first.

Yeah. I don’t even like horror games really but the Evil Within series is phenomenal.
