The Situation Room 3.0

Capsplz. All the “good” video games were released at least 5 years ago.

Hollow Knight released in 2017. Celeste released in 2018. Dead Cells released in 2018. Golf Story is an underrated Switch exclusive that released in 2017. Caveblazers released in 2017. All of these are excellent indie games on Switch that I hadn't got to experience before now that have released in the past 2 years.

None of those are names I even remotely recognize, so they’re probably not that good.

Celeste is actually nominated for Game of the Year. :U They are all so fantastic, ME, you're missing out. And they're indie titles. Of course you've never heard of them

Indie games get a pass because they’re usually better than the triple aaaaaaaaaa nonsense.

Capsplz. Everyone knows awards and award shows are rigged as hell.

You should read about the game and the impact it's had on the larger gaming community.

Very very true.

So the game collided with a few people and knocked them over. Doesn’t make it a good game, just means it’s guilty of assault.

looks Celeste up on Steam

Holy hell. That's an ancient school platformer. Almost prehistoric. Still looks kinda easy, though.

One of the reasons I rarely pay attention to stuff like the oscars and whatever else. I have no idea if they won them legitimately or if it was an arranged win.

you should go play it. It certainly isn’t.

How does it compare to the original Contra, Battletoads, or I Wanna Be the Guy?

It's similar to Super Meat Boy.

 

[Snowy]

Super Meat Boy is one I haven't actually played, but it's said to be quite challenging.

 

[Ereshkigal]

Super Meat Boy I've also not played. Never really caught my attention.

 

[Maniacal Engineer]

I’ve heard that he steaks are too low in Super Meat Boy.

 

[Snowy]

It’s free on the eshop so....


Broken image but its the demo for LGE.

EDIT: This is great... The game can't even fit on my television properly LOL... It's partly off the screen.

And catching Pokemon is as boring as we thought... pretty much everything ME and I said about the game is true.

 

[Maniacal Engineer]

Always good to know when I'm right.

 

[Snowy]

As if you had any doubt

The demo takes place entirely in viridian forest... You walk around, "battle" wild pokemon (Haha... battle), fight a few trainers, etc... and once you get to the end, the demo is over.

I give it a 2/10... and the 2 is because Eevee is cute.

Currently playing a game on The Syndicate. Here's the link in case anyone wants to spectate.

I tried to think of something witty to say in response to AE’s post above, but I couldn’t think of anything.

That’s a first.
