@JohnnyMind i didn’t know it was a digital only (well probably knew but forgot), but i hope you got decent space cuz these games are quite large lol :’D have fun getting into the games tho id def recommend them and this is a pretty great game imo at least for a newcomer
@Ryu_Niiyama it’ll be an awesome physical release too (at least i hope it’s physicall), in case you were somewhat confused by the trailer, it’s meant to promote the actor you just saw, which makes sense given the tv show coming out but I can imagine this went over a few people’s heads…. Mine very much included :’ D
@JohnnyMind just giving my two cents here; while I’d adore a new version of the adventure games as a diehard fan, a full-blown remaster would unfortunately be necessary as opposed to a simple emulated port. Most versions (minus the Dreamcast one but that one doesn’t let you skip cutscenes so) have some gigantic technical issue that was thankfully fixed by BetterDX, a mod, but that’s PC only obviously. I think a full technical rework would be essential to give SA1-2 the love they deserve, rather than be left in the current state they’re in on PS360steam.
I don’t see the need for a standalone game. It was awesome as a side thing in adventure games. I think it makes more sense to have it come back in adventure 3 or something similar.
Thank you for promoting this, I love backing up kickstarter projects- uh, what is this exactly? I love Pokémon-likes, but this might be a little too zany for me or I’m not the right audience. Wish them luck though!
I’m on two minds here. There’s definitely an element of maturity to occasionally laugh at yourself (without overdoing it, as an earlier comment has alluded) but there’s something a bit odd about actively validating your bashers, which this does borderline on occasionally.
@JohnnyMind I appreciate these indirect responses, I like reading these comments. If you’re worried about potentially bothering people via a direct response, you have my permission/consent to ping me specifically in response to letters I write. Trust me, you’d be doing me a favor. xD
@FishyS I’m interested in how they’re calculated. I made a misclick and accidentally said I have zero digital games xD But my physical count was accurate (26) since that’s what I often keep track of
@FullMetalWesker I know and I know.
I posted that edit of the overseas cover because I found it humorous. I apologize if that confused you.
Also, not to bother you, but you pinged a different username. My username ends with a hyphen. xD (it’s not a big deal or anything I just found it ironic you called me out for allegedly making an error (that wasn’t there)/not paying attention while you yourself are the one who made an error/didn’t pay attention. All good tho don’t worry we’re all human)
I’m actually slowly getting hyped for this. My friend really likes this series so I’m really interested in what the smiling man is smiling about, wonder if it’s a funny joke that’s stuck in his head. Happens to the best of us.
@Yalloo oh I forgot to reply to your comment. Enjoy legacy collections, so many of my favorite games there. I really adore the classic series in particular. Don’t really have a favorite cuz so many of them are great and I replay them often. Happy pride. I extend all the sentiments expressed. : D Best of wishes. One love.
@JohnnyMind fantastic picks, a lot of games there I plan to plan to buy/play including TotK, Engage, PoP (corn) and of course, can’t forget strikers. Though I’m likely getting that on steam, less I find it physically on switch like the fate games which are my next physical purchase. Best of wishes. : D @Zuljaras Beautiful stuff, my man. I always gotta stop and admire a cool setup. : D Steam deck bros for life. ✌️
Grand Theft Auto IV (favorite game of all time, doing a playthrough that’s simultaneous with another buddy’s replay)
Dynasty Warriors 6 (ps2 version, which has more characters than the ps3 version due to releasing after, trust me you’ll need a few re-reads to understand this paragraph)
Dynasty Warriors 8XLCEDXDE (trust me that wasn’t a keyboard mash, I just happen to have bought all three modern versions of the game. CE on steam, DE on switch and DX on switch which is Japanese, I’m trying to beat all three although I’ll need an SD card, also my L bumper stopped working, that sucks)
Conker (part of my participation for the Pure Xbox club, I’ve also voted for Gears 2, hence why I’m playing Gears 1)
Way of the Samurai 1-2 (both fantastic games, this is the best samurai sandbox game, if there’s even other games that fall under the label)

Re: Sonic Fans, Don't Get Your Hopes Up For A Standalone Chao Garden Game
@Bunkerneath yeah to be honest this needs to come back. Don’t care how they do it I just miss digi-devices in general and similar stuff.
