A pal came over with his shit load of games, sampled...
Switch: Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild. Looks really Good, plays smooth and the game seems really deep. This game alone wanted me to go out and get a switch. Wasn't too fond of the tiny controllers but a regular one can be purchased. This Switch console would be the best thing ever on a boring bus or car ride.
Mario Cart 8: Not bad, pretty identical to the last Kart with excellent graphics and impressive tracks. If a person still drank and partied it would make for a pretty fun drinking game.
VR: Far Point. The gun is super ugly lol. Like somebody took a sewer pipe, spray painted it white and stuck buttons on it. But none of that matters...once you boot up the game the graphics are jaw dropping. You look down and see your arms holding a futuristic rifle straight out of Halo or Destiny. You're on this sand covered planet and fighting these large spiders that jump right at your face, I actually flinched because I hate spiders. I eventually got motion sickness because I'm an old fossil but it was incredible, like crawling inside your T.V to play the game. A FPS but inside the world. My pal said it's really too short though, that is a major downside.
The Last Guardian: PS4: Picked up at a part he couldn't get past in an underground well. Noticed very quickly how shitty the camera is in this game. Dive under water and forget having good controls and a camera that makes sense. Your Dog/Dragon/Bird thing will follow you around and (sometimes) follow your commands. Some of the puzzles are very tricky and take some time to figure out. What I love about this game is that it doesn't hold your hand and show a fluorescent fucking arrow to tell you where to go next like a lot of games of the same genre. You have to figure that out on your own with your little tattooed Jungle Book guy. A guy that seems to have too much animation. Touch the controller in one direction and he'll dart off, bang his head on the wall and fall on his back...very touchy. We had a laugh at how over the top his movements are, I thought you could move this giant jar laying on its side, it moved a little so I experimented to see what button does the shove motion, instead of shoving he leaped over the jar with his arms and legs flapping behind him and down a large canyon to his doom. Face slap. There's a section that is pretty excellent where you fight a evil dog dragon and trap yourself in a cage to avoid being stomped, then have to figure out how to escape by running around and rolling the cage. Really cool. Got near the end but ran out of time to see the finale. From the 3.5 hours of playing it's a solid 8.5 / 10 game for tricky puzzles and good graphics. The knocks against are the frustrating camera, super touchy Jungle Book guy and Dog Dragon companion not always listening to you.
