It's super interesting

Anyone here backing Bloodstained? I dunno, it seems to me a 16 bit style would serve it better and get more older gamers and retro fans out to support it.

Ugh,yeh. Not digging the art style they're going for. Let's hope it turns out better than mighty no. 9.

Was this the one by the guy behind SOTN or is this another MetroidVania in the Castlevania style ?

That's the one.

i didn't back it but i will play it if it doesn't suck. it looks okay but i wish the movement speed was a bit faster. only game i've ever backed was formula fusion which just celebrated it's 1.0 release on steam but i'm too busy playing tekken to get into it =\

 

i doubt it could be as bad as might no 9. that game definitely suffered from the fact that it had to be ported to like 9 consoles and they just went with putting the 3ds version on everything basically.

Dang, I'm sure in the first screenshots it looks considerably better - Like hand drawn sprites. This looks more like a PS2 game ran through an HD filter.

 

EDIT: Yeah certainly looks quite different from the first comcept art -

Here you go: 

 

It's a damn good game (so far)

They really need to announce the Switch virtual console at E3, I would play the shit out of some Dracula's Curse or Metroid Zero Mission on that thing.

doesn't look that different to me. i bet you could get similar stills out of what they currently have. the problem is that it just doesn't look as good in motion as it did watching those sotn sprites did for the first time. and at this point, probably nothing ever will

re Andromeda, I just want to say that Peebee is so munted-looking, her face makes me lol every time.

E3 2017 imminent

tekken is crazy goddamn

This looks like the game I wanted last year, probly with another $50-60 season pass though.

 

Far too much Phantom Menace, those droid things are awful.

Except they've already said all the extra maps and characters will be free...

Thank you for the reading. Those articles always make me go like "well maybe not trying to work in videogames was a good idea after all" !

 

I've been playing Emily Is Away yesterday (yeah please don't laugh at me) and the ending left me so sad/bitter that I didn't really wanted to do anything after that. Probably hit my "emotional-failures-over-MSN-Messenger" spot in a quite rough way.

dear lord that new samsung super ultra-wide thing

 

jaysus

I'm hard.

Samsung’s 49-inch ultrawide curved display is basically just half a TV at this point

Yaas, I can finally play Darius II in the proper picture ratio

 

Pretty sure that would give me motion sickness, but cool idea nonetheless.

Kingdom Hearts 3 is looking really smooth, I hope that releases sometime in the next year, probly the PS4 game I'm looking forward to the most.  Anthem could be fun as well for multiplayer.

 

Those Zelda skins in Skyrim look hilarious btw

DiRT 4 is dope af.

 

Best racing game I've played in a while after Driveclub and Project CARS, both of which were underwhelming for me.

 

I never even checked out DiRT Rally either, tempted to now since 4 is so good.
