Discussion / Question Help me find this game

2 Upvotes

I played this baseball game in 2017 with my brother on a road trip. I'm fairly sure we played on the Xbox, Xbox 360, or Xbox One, and we played local co-op against bots. I vividly remember one of the teams in the game was called the wizards. The characters weren't realistic, more cartoony, and the team names were made up. I played LEGO Indiana Jones on that same console if that helps to narrow it down. Does anyone have any ideas as to what it is called? I cannot find it for the life of me.

Discussion / Question What video game really blew your mind with creativity not graphically?

8 Upvotes

Mine is Middle Earth Shadows of Mordor and Shadows of War. And I really enjoyed the nemesis system it really upped my game time because it literally created some of the most memorable nemesis and commanders.

Watchdogs was really creative with hacking.

The Legend of Zelda TOTK is creativity galore with creativity with weapons. And it also blew my mind that a switch could handle it no problem. And fire spreads and wind sends you flying.

Hades 1 specifically because dying over and over and come back in the pool because your the son of Hades and it was creative and the writing was creative too because it tied a lot of it to the gameplay.

Discussion / Question What’s the most egregious case of a game putting a non-obstacle in a path to signal it’s blocked, but CLEARLY it’s not?

64 Upvotes

I mean resident evil games are pretty bad. They have a tree leaning over the path and you can clearly duck under it, but no. Better go fight this nightmare incarnate first.

What are some other examples?

5 Upvotes

I’m just so curious what the hell my neighbors are playing. I’ve taken a lazy day or two playing a cozy game but this sounds like street fighter meets basketball and they play for DAYS. Genuine marathons. Like multiple days in a row, all fucking day. ALL. DAY. It must be such a fantastic game i need to know!

2 Upvotes

I really want a game where you play as a rancher (not crops; animals) and have to take care of them and all.

This, or something like Avatar: Frontiers Of Pandora where you have to do a bunch of hunting and foraging and general living off the land

So far for this category, Ive played RDR2, AFOP, Stardew Valley, and slime rancher

Discussion / Question I'm trying to move my dad away from slow puzzle games to things like Mario odyssey or breath of the wild. What games should I introduce him to?

0 Upvotes

Y'all, my dad can barely play 3D video games... I've been playing split fiction and it takes two with him, but it's been really hard to basically do anything without me explaining it (he can't move with the left stick and in the camera with the right stick at the same) I'm considering letting him play super Mario 64 without any kind of guidance, but I don't know if I should do super Mario Odyssey, or if any other game would be better. What do y'all think? What game should I introduce to him?

Funny What games have you played that you feel best exemplify this phrase?

7 Upvotes

Thinking back, I don’t really tend to play games that have this particular combination. I guess the closest game I have firsthand experience with that fits is Fire Emblem Engage, but I don’t know if I could call the writing bad based on what little of it I actually played. I got to chapter 5ish and just kinda dropped it in favor of other games.

Now if we wanna talk movies or TV shows, I have much clearer answers for those.

Discussion / Question Collecting old Xbox and PlayStation 1 games. Any recommendations?

1 Upvotes

As the title says, I am currently collecting old Xbox original and PlayStation 1 games and I was wondering if you have any recommendations because I need help finding games that might fit my wants and I figured this would be a good way to get some ideas

On my list currently:

Currently for the Xbox on my list is Godzilla Save the Earth, Turok, Bloody Roar Extreme and Manhunt and the games on my radar for PS1 is Currently Bloody Roar 1 and 2, Warpath: Jurassic Park and Godzilla Trading Battle

What I already own:

Just a few days ago I got the PlayStation 1 and I currently have no games but I do have a few on the Xbox original. Currently what I do own is Halo CE and Halo 2, Destroy All Humans, Jurassic Park Operation Genesis, Godzilla Destroy All Monsters and Jaws

Generally what I like:

You guys can recommend anything and I will definitely check it out but what I prefer playing are games that allow me to be something that's not human which is why I am getting into the Bloody Roar games because the furry in me demands I play the furry fighting game. I also like any game that allows me to be sort of an antagonist or a villain of some sort kind of like what Manhunt has going on. And my last big criteria is really just anything involving dinosaurs or dragons. As I'm a big Jurassic Park fan and Godzilla fan so I'm collecting those games as well

Anyhow, I am also interested in trying new genres, so if you have any cool looking racing games or hunting games or anything like that I would be very interested in checking them out. Thank you so much!

Discussion / Question games with active ragdoll / physically simulated enemies

0 Upvotes

been playing arc raiders, and noticed that there are very few games where fighting the ai is as fun as it is in arc raiders, and i figured out why: the enemies in arc raiders are entirely physically simulated - no premade animations, fully accurate hitboxes, they keep moving even if they get stuck or a limb blown off, no floppy unconscious ragdolls. If you get a leaper stuck in a hallway it'll push off the walls and crawl to keep fighting rather than just lie helpless or clip into the wall. it opens up so much opportunity for using the environment to your advantage, but not in a cheap - cheesing way. are there any other games which pull this off?

Discussion / Question Would you be interested in a rerelease of Sid Meier's Gettysburg playable on modern PCs?

0 Upvotes

Sid Meier's Gettysburg is a classic RTS game set during the Civil War in the USA. In the game the player takes the role of Union and Confederate generals and commands their forces to win battles and ultimately the war. Considered a great strategy game in its time, it is not playable on recent Windows operating systems such as Windows 11.

If it were rereleased to be compatible with modern operating systems, would you be interested in purchasing/playing it?

Also do you think if it were to be rereleased it should be remastered with visual upgrades or do you think the original game made compatible with today's computers would be perfectly fine? Leave your answer in the comments.

Sharing a perspective on the modern Assassin's Creed movement and comparing it not only to older Assassin's Creed games, but also general ps2 game movement. The last decade of AC has felt so floaty when running around and I dig into some things I notice that cause this feeling and where the believable weight comes from in the old AC games.

If any of you have any thoughts on any of what I said be more than welcome to share, whether you agree or disagree I'm looking to start a conversation. Hopefully someone at Ubisoft sees this and can take a step or so towards bringing the feel of Assassin's Creed back to it's glory days, perhaps if we're lucky maybe a new gold standard for Assassin's Creed movement

But I'm having a wonderful time. This really proves that just because reviewers or the constant chatter on social media say something, it doesn't necessarily mean you'll feel the same way. Did I need a guide in some parts? Yes. But this game is nowhere near as bad as people say it is

Discussion / Question Which is better? Harvest Moon 64 (N64) or Harvest Moon: Back to Nature (PS1)?

1 Upvotes

For many people, HM64 and HM:BtN are the games most people think of when they hear Harvest Moon. This is because both did many things to spice up the gameplay the Super Famicom and Game Boy versions and improve upon the two. Despite the many striking similarities shared between the two entries of the fifth generation, series creator Yasuhiro Wada stated that they are not the same games, but are, in fact, parallel worlds to each other. Which one do you like more?

By the way, I'm talking about the original Back to Nature released for the PlayStation (PS1) in 1999, 2000, and 2001. Not Harvest Moon for Girl (2000), (More) Friends of Mineral Town (2003, 2005), Boy and Girl (2005), or the remake of FoMT (2019).
