I'm actually really interested in this game- waiting for your review before I purchase. I have fond memories of the classic point and click adventures on PC.
Great review, Dave! I'm surprised at how well Perfect Dark still holds up. I just picked up Batman and Forza Horizon 2, so I'll need to way a few weeks before picking this title up. I can't wait. Best bargain in years.
I too, find it hard to commit myself to a 40+ hour JRPG. I'm married, have two little boys, and a full time job. When a title releases that I just can't pass up, I sacrifice sleep.
My copy will arrive at my doorstep tomorrow. I feel good about the reviews- it's a PSP remake, so I didn't expect a new groundbreak game in the series. Are you getting it, Dave?
I own the first Titanfall and thought it was only mediocre. It reeks of a game that was rushed due to pressure from the Publisher and/or Microsoft. No single player campaign, and the visuals look really outdated (like a 360 game). I do think the IP has a ton of potential, and am excited to see what they do next.

I have a ton of respect for Bonnie Ross and her long career at Microsoft, but this needed to happen.

When can we expect a review, or did I miss it?
Re: Talking Point: What Games Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue Sixty Five
@Utena-mobile Unfortunately you cannot get ride of those jaggies on PS2 lol. I've been wanting to find a way since 2000.
Re: Talking Point: What Games Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue Sixty Five
@Tasuki
I as well. I play a ton of SNES/Genesis. 16-bit was easily my favorite generation. And like you said, you just put the game in and played.
Re: Talking Point: What Games Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue Sixty Five
@Tasuki
Fantastic taste in games! I see we are the same age-that explains it.
Re: Talking Point: What Games Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue Sixty Five
Streets of Rage 2! Also, just picked up Batman and Forza Horizon 2 for XBO. It's going to be a fun weekend.
Re: Review: Batman: Arkham Knight (Xbox One)
@SuperKMx I'm sure I will! Thanks!
Re: Review: Batman: Arkham Knight (Xbox One)
I'm getting this for my birthday next month!

Re: Talking Point: What Games Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue Fifty Nine
The Witcher 3. I have a feeling I'll be playing this for a long, long, time. I'll also fire up Rayman Legends for some spectacular 2D platforming.
Re: The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - 30FPS Lock Patch Coming Soon
I hate to sound like a performance snob (I promise I'm not!) but an unstable, choppy frame rate drives me bonkers.
Re: The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - 30FPS Lock Patch Coming Soon
@SuperKMx Thanks!
Re: The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - 30FPS Lock Patch Coming Soon
"The patch will allow users to lock the game to 30 frames per second."
Do I need to manually choose a setting for this? Am I reading this correctly?
Re: Talking Point: What Games Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue Fifty Eight
Witcher 3 @ a locked 30fps! Woohoo!
Re: EA Confirms Need for Speed for Xbox One
Assuming this game turns out to be a solid racer, we'll have some fantastic games in this genre. I'd like to see a new Road Rash!
Re: Out Today: The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt (Xbox One)
Just bought it!
Re: Review: Rogue Legacy (Xbox One)
Another fantastic, insightful review, Dave! This game looks great! I really like the art style.
Re: Sorry Xbox 360 Owners, The Next Gears of War Is Xbox One Only
This makes me happy.
Re: Batman: Arkham Knight Delayed Again
If delays mean a more stable, polished experience at launch, I'm all for it.
Re: Talking Point: What Games Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue Forty Nine
purexbox and nintendolife are my favorite gaming websites. The community is amazing!
Re: Hideo Kojima Leaving Konami and Metal Gear Solid?
I LOL'd at your MGS reference "Kojima? KOJIMA!!!!"
Re: Talking Point: What Games Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue Forty Nine
I noticed!
I'll be playing all that free Titanfall DLC
Re: Round Up: Final Fantasy Type-0 HD Reviews Are Without Regret
@DRL
I too, find it hard to commit myself to a 40+ hour JRPG. I'm married, have two little boys, and a full time job. When a title releases that I just can't pass up, I sacrifice sleep.

Re: Talking Point: What Games Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue Forty Eight
Ori! I need to play the living hell out of this game, because on Tuesday FF Type-0 arrives at my door step!

Re: ToeJam & Earl: Back In The Groove Kickstarter Adds Xbox One Stretch Goal
Here's hoping! The XB1 library is getting better and better. I can't wait for the Holiday's.
Re: ToeJam & Earl: Back In The Groove Kickstarter Adds Xbox One Stretch Goal
I'll be really disappointed if we don't get this on XB1 :/
Re: Titanfall 2 Is in the Works, Coming to Multiple Platforms
I own the first Titanfall and thought it was only mediocre. It reeks of a game that was rushed due to pressure from the Publisher and/or Microsoft. No single player campaign, and the visuals look really outdated (like a 360 game). I do think the IP has a ton of potential, and am excited to see what they do next.
Re: Titanfall Season Pass Goes Free on Xbox 360 and Xbox One
I guess they're never releasing that "resolution patch" huh?
Re: Review: Ori and the Blind Forest (Xbox One)
Hell yes! I cannot wait!
Re: Ninjas Invade Xbox One in Shadow Blade: Reload

Re: Tic Toc Games Confirms Platformer The Adventures of Pip for Xbox One
Looks great, Dave! I am so excited for these fantastic look Indy games.
Re: The Flame in the Flood Will Make Its Console Debut on Xbox One
This game looks awesome!
Re: Weekly Wrap: Too Many New Games Edition
I'm really excited about the possibility of Raging Justice being great. Even the name sounds like a 90's brawler!
Re: Raging Justice Aims to Reinvent the Side-Scrolling Brawler
I agree, Dave. I too, cannot pass up a 2D beat-em-up, so I hope this one is good. I'm not a huge fan of the art design, however. Hoping for the best!
Re: Battletoads to Make Their Radical Return in Shovel Knight on Xbox One
I find this news bittersweet, honestly. Does this mean that the long rumored Xbox One Battletoads game is this? If so, I'm disappointed.
Re: Talking Point: What Games Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue Forty Six
Axelay!
Re: New Arkham Knight Trailer Shows Off Batman's Many Foes
@TylerTreese
Haha- I'm just poking fun at all those people caught up in the "Resolution Wars". I wish it would go away.
Re: Feature: These Are the Xbox 360 Games We Want to See Remastered for Xbox One
I really don't want to see anymore remasters, honestly. I am ready for new, next-gen (current gen?) experiences.
Re: Neverwinter Launching on Xbox One at End of March
Intrigued....
Re: New Arkham Knight Trailer Shows Off Batman's Many Foes
This game looks incredible! But if it's not 1080p I won't buy it.
Kidding!
Day 1 purchase for me!
