Anyone here play video games?

Been playing Metroid Dread all day, I'm surprised by how difficult it is. The one boss took me like 10 times to beat it. I die pretty often too. I've played every single Metroid game even the last one on DS and I didn't find them this difficult.
I tried getting in to Far Cry but it was driving me crazy all the cut scenes, forced stealth in part, and the hand holding. Not a good start for a game at all. Just STFU and let me go explore and shoot stuff.

That reminds me: have you ever heard Metroid Metal @Filthy ?
-
Kind of sounds like Rush, no I never heard that before.

I'm about 8 hours into (not counting the trial and error gameplay and deaths, the in game counter only keeps tabs on the most current progress) Metroid Dread and it's definitely the most hardcore game I've played since the 90s. I can't tell if I am having fun or not but I like it and hate it at the same time. Not feeling the one hit death of the Emmi but otherwise the game is fantastic. Probably the game of the year unless Halo is amazing.
Forza is absolutely fantastic too. Worth a try on Gamepass just to play the introduction part… You drive a Ford Bronco down the side of an erupting volcano... The graphics are the most next-gen I've seen yet. Blows away anything so far and it's not even close.

I have gotten pretty far in Metroid. I think I finally beat the last one hit kill robot. Trying to play this game on joycons was frustratingly difficult, so I got this cheap dongle that lets me use a real Xbox controller on my switch
-
Beat Metroid. Great game. It couldn't believe how tough some of the bosses were.

My Walmart has the Switch OLED model in stock if anyone wants one (that lives in the US) and wants me to pick them one up. Maybe for their kids…

I got a Pandora box that has over 10,000 arcade games on it. I was tempted by those Arcade 1up cabinets but they are quite large and expensive and this was only $150 and does a lot more
It has every:
NES
SNES
Mega Drive
PC Engine
A lot of N64 ROMs but not all (because the emulation is broken)
And 10,000 arcade games
It's pretty cool but it's kind of annoying that you can't access the dipswitch/service menu. So like a lot of games the blood is off by default or the difficulty is high by default, so you can't change it.
I'm pissed they did not include NCW versus NWO Revenge with the N64 ROMs. I'm trying to see if I can either get the company to add it to their database or run the ROM from a flash drive. So far no luck.

Very excited for this
-
I enjoyed Sniper Elite 4 a ton
-
Beyond belief

finally got that call for a PS5!! everything I said about waiting for a pro version has gone out the window. down side is that I only got 3 days to play it before I fly out..
-
@louisbosco how's that PS5?
I'm so excited for this game… I'm glad it's going to be on PC because playing this on PS4 was pretty painful.
Love the music and the art direction so much
-
@Filthy it's been brilliant mate. so far, I've only been using it to play Fifa ultimate team. but the load time and gameplay is miles better than the ps4 version already. astro's play world has been a blast to, showing off the capabilities of the new controller.
looking to get Spiderman and ratchet and clank before god of war comes out later this year..
-
Yeah I know what you mean… That's what I meant about PS4 versus PC and Series X being painful. I hope you enjoy it. I want to play Ghost of Tsushima on PS5 so bad
-

For sure looking forward to Sniper Elite 5, the fourth was real fun and the co-op was pretty decent. Dying Light 2 comes out in less than 2 weeks, been waiting years!
-
^have not
Gonna spam a few trailers for stuff from the past two days
This is out today
This is out soon and also on Xbox and Switch
Finally, if you look on the previous pages I had expressed disappointment that the game looked very rough. But I am happy they pushed it back and added a ton of polish and single-player. Looks really good now.
