XboxEra Community Hangout |OT12| The Dirty Dozen

Same here, I downloaded Gears 1 Ultimate a few days ago, played some chapters and the game is still freakin’ awesome. I was surprised by how much more difficult the game is when compared to the rest of the series…like Hardcore is just a tiny bit easier than what Insane is on Gears 2-5, enemies are aggressive AF and you get a lot of damage even by Hammerbursts…though to be fair HB is really good in this game, in both the MP AND the campaign.

Also Gears 1 still has the best Gnasher and the best OST in the series IMO. Can’t wait for E-Day, I have a feeling that this game is gonna be something truly special.

Decided to finally check out Nintendo Switch Online with all the retro games.

Since I never finished Ocarina of Time (I know) I decided to check it out. It immediately reminds me you of how there was not a lot of handholding back in the day. I had to find the Deku Tree and completely forgot where that was after SO many years. And you can easily go the wrong way. Had to find a sword and this happens to be in a area after a crawlspace.

Since a remake or remaster has not been announced, I think it’s time to go for it. And I’ll grab a guide for the water temple, since that’s where we got lost as kids back then and never went back to it.

OoT already had a remake on the 3DS, and it was fantastic, FYI.

It is stuck on 3DS though.

Nintendo is weird. I would buy it again on Switch in an instant. It’s hard to go back to the N64 version.

Yeah, but I don’t have one anymore. Never been much of a handheld gamer. A proper console remake or remaster is what I’d like, but alas.

I remember RAAM on Hardcore was a chore back in the day.

So many great memories jumping back into MP, at the same time I was quickly reminded how bad I was. :sweat_smile:

Space Marine 2 looks too good to be true.

It is amazing that this game gets re-releases and no already announced sequel in sight.

But too good to be true as in doubts Saber can do this?

My only complaint if I have to be that guy is the missing light beam. Something is “odd.”

I had Fighting Force for the PS1. It was pretty awful. To this day I think damn this could have become SOR4. Thankfully Sega wasn’t dumb enough to let that happen. Funny thing is Core ended not putting it on the Saturn. (Diehard Arcade was a vastly superior 3D beat em up anyway) The less said about Fighting Force 2 the better. Still sucks to see things like this skipping xbox though. Especially when it’s something actually worth playing.

I might be on crazy pills, but I think the switch one, collectively looks drastically better.
