    I love my 6p but have a smattering of issues with it. Tend to restart it frequently on accident (or it locks up and restarts) and I appear to have some of the wifi issues that have plagued the handset. Frequently it gets stuck and I have to restart it when I get home for it to pick up and...

    Resident Evil 7

    Just be sure to try it before falling in love with the idea of one game only to find out it makes you sick. Have a couple friends like that w/ the RE demo (Drive Club as well)

    Yeah, they showed it from before the boost-back burn all the way to touchdown, very few frames lost. Was pretty awesome.

    Sometimes, it just seems like they are content just making Amiibo related to some of those and calling it a day.

    Peter Moore did try and dispute the 'it's a 360/PS3' port of Fifa but quoting the 'customized for Switch' bit of the PR, but then wouldn't speak to anything else. Kinda siding w/ Eurogamer on that until they prove otherwise. We haven't seen anything about Frostbite being able to run on Switch...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    It's probably my most played game every year, but not sure I'd touch a Switch version if it's 'customized for Switch' and that translates to 'port of 360/PS3-style game, no chance of physics, Frostbite, etc' All along EA said they were developing 'a' game for Switch. If this sells like...

    Yeah, they discontinued and recalled the Wii U so it wasn't an option on the shelf next to the Switch.

    Nintendo says Switch won’t replace the 3DS "In our view, the Nintendo 3DS and the Nintendo Switch are going to live side-by-side," Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime told Wired in a recent interview. "They’re going to coexist just fine. We’ve done this before, managing two different...

    So there are only 4 games available for US launch, everything else is 'launch window' (which is apparently a full calendar year from launch the way they're using it) ? lol. Zelda 1-2-Switch Just Dance Skylanders Most everything else is TBD or has vague release dates.

    We played New Angeles last night. It was a fun game, a lot of negotiation, but people tanking just for their investment really kind of sunk us. Think people did a poor job of seeing the big picture and that brought the game down a bit. We're still arguing about why people did some things, so...

    PS+ is the same as it always was, quality differed because the PS3 had been out for 4+ years when PS+ started handing out games, which also allowed them access to more AAA titles as the generation came to a close.
