Alright my Switch sluts. Help me decide.

Linkā€™s Awakening or Astral Chain? :thinking:
(Feel free to include why)

Just copped Dead By Daylight and Untitled Goose Game on it. Trying to decide between one more game and Iā€™ll be good for the month.

Accurate. Like we get it, u hate. But must u be so vocal about it?

Astral Chain. Its a new game with a lot more replay value then LA. LA is a beat for beat remake and has less over all content the Astral Chain.

Am copping LA soon as I have the extra cash

Edit: Iā€™d go far enough to say Astral Chain offers a new action game experience with a new way to play action games while LA isā€¦wellā€¦Links Awakening. Great game an all but you know exactly what you are getting with that one.

My answer is Links Awakening. I am extremely bias though.

Linkā€™s Awakening because itā€™s fucking fantastic.

Astral Chain on the other hand I knew I wouldnā€™t like after about 2 seconds of a trailer.

Links awakening, Fun classic Zelda title that does not take it self seriously and you can play it ether 5 min at a time or marathon it

Kinda toughā€¦If you actually want something new with some Platinum Goodness? Astral Chain. If you want to experience as really fucking great remake? Linkā€™s Awakening. Iā€™d say though, if youā€™ve played Linkā€™s Awakening before Iā€™d probably hold off on it and experience Astral Chain first. Linkā€™s Awakening is amazing but aside from the brand spanking new coat of paint, redone music and the chamber dungeonā€¦itā€™s essentially the same game. If you havenā€™t played Linkā€™s Awakening before though then thatā€™s back to being a tough decision for you.

Personally would give the edge over to Astral Chain purely because itā€™s a pure new game.

As others have said LA is if you are a Zelda fan and never played it or did and loved it. There is nothing new besides the graphics and the dungeon builder is less about building and more like rearrange some things. It is a great game and still such but not much new.

Astral Chain is a new action game that while if you are Platinum fan has some similar elements you can recognize but is a new experience and far more forgiving if you have no experience with other Platinum games then you will get with their older titles. Although donā€™t buy the two player tag line, that is just impossible and unfun to use.

The choice is yours

The dungeon builder has a few challenges, and a few challenges do net you stuff like a piece of heart or secret sea shells

Get both!

Whoooooaaaa.

Thatā€™s crazy unexpected and a huge blow to Sony. I wonder why heā€™s leaving. He was such a good public representative for Sony.

rumor is some sort of internal struggle going on at sony. prob find out in next couple of weeks. hope the who wants backwards compatibility anyway? guy isnā€™t on deck

Not that I care too much as I got a working PS2 and PS3, but if the PS5 got full backwards compatibility with the entire PS 1, 2, 3, 4, PSP, Vita and Mini Libraries, then Sony got a Winner.
Hell I be happy with just the PS1 through 4 as backwards compatible.

Right before the presumably PS5 announcements and some major releases.

Fucking wild.

I really do hope more info comes out. Itā€™s incredibly random as well as worrisome that he steps down so suddenly after being with the company for over 30 years and helped spearhead so many internal studios for Sony and first party games.

This could be really really bad for Playstation
