    It will lol. I found this gaming store near me that sells games early. I was able to cop Fifa like 2 days before I'm hoping they have Mario/Skyrim a few days before release

    Picked up Mario yesterday. It was epic. I only played a little but the the little i played I was blown away. The way the combined the classic Mario from back in the day to give it a nostalgia feel was flawless. Very hyped to play it some more this weekend.

    Don't know why I haven't come in here. I do still play mostly on PS4 but with more and more incredible Nintendo titles it'd be cool to play with some of the forum.

    I've never played LA Noire and am thinking about getting the remastered version...but I could get it for waaaay cheaper if I got it the original for PS3. Is the DLC/remastered s--- worth it? @Devil White I think you're a big fan of that game, do you have any insight as to the remastered vs. original?

    I also never actually owned Skyrim, just played my roommate's copy for a few weeks one summer but I probably only completed like a 1/4 of what that game has to offer. Might be worth a purchase for me as well.

    LA Noire is great. How are Snipperclips and Splatoon 2?

    EDIT: Had the DLC on PS3 and it was good. Heard the remastered changed some bad stuff with interrogations

    I've heard great things about LA Noire, I'm just wondering if the remastered edition is better enough than the original to justify paying full price instead of like $10 to get it on PS3. If the additional content is good enough and it's remastered to work better I'm definitely interested.

    Snipperclips is a super fun/casual party game. It's only like $20 so I'd recommend it. Splatoon 2 is also tons of fun. I haven't played it since Odyssey came out but it's way more fun than you'd expect. I've never played the original so I bought it on a whim.

    I'm also wondering about Resident Evil Revelations cuz I've never played those but I love the main RE games...it sounds like it's more survival horror than action-oriented so I'm def interested in that cuz I prefer those.

    LA Noire has a bunch of new touchscreen stuff you can do handheld on switch, and they completely changed interrogations (the base system/biggest flaw of the game).

    Resident Evil Revelations 1 + 2 play most like 4 with more horror.

    Hmmm I loved 4 when I first played it but the gameplay doesn't hold up as well to me as the remastered version of 1 does and I loved 7 which is more survival-based (at least until the last part, which I didn't like as much but was still fun). I like it when you kinda have to choose "fight or flight" and have to conserve your bullets cuz there's a legit chance you might run and and be caught with nothing. But I might check it out anyway cuz it's two games for $40 (or $30 if I preorder on prime).

    Yea, I picked it up on the PS4.. It brings the game back to life and it's beautiful.. but I honestly prefer it on the other generation consoles tbh

    they changed the interrogation scenes and options to Good Cop, Bad Cop and Accuse... I don't care for that...and all of the DLC's are included in this release.

    You're not really missing much if you don't pick it up on PS4... PS3 is just as good imo

    Digital:
    Mario Odyssey
    Golf Story
    Mario Kart 8 DX
    LA Noire
    Snipperclips demo
    Also the Hulu app just in case

    (And I have BOTW for Wii U)

    I have about 10 games in my wishlist on the eshop... going all digital this time around.

    @Big Cuntry did you end up picking up LA Noire? I’m only about 3 hours in but I like it so far (I never owned a PS3/4, haven’t used my Xbox 360 in years). Got caught up in Mario Odyssey so I mostly finished that before starting LA Noire.

    So far I really like helping with the random small crimes that happen while I’m on my way to a crime scene or something. The cutscenes and the graphics are nice. And I started Mad Men a few months ago so I like that the time period aesthetic is similar

    I would never go digital, simply because all games are overpriced as f---. Not worth it. I'm staying with my retail games. I got Super Mario Odyssey for 31€ last week .
