From the thumbnail I thought this was the Overlook hotel

This weekend I will play and finish Chronicles of the Wolf! I got both the Switch 1 and the PS5 copies just to support the indie Castlevania fan Migami (Mig Perez).

On the site I have the great Castlevania Chronicles which in Arranged mode on easier difficulty is playable otherwise it is one of the hardest Castlevania games out there!

And in Resident Evil 4 Remake I am about to exit the Village area.

Happy gaming everyone!!!

It was (and still is) a very disappointing game.

1. They tricked the audience with the trailer. Actually, they straight up lied!
2. The used pure shock value for the fun of it.
3. The whole premise of "Revenge BAD!" is stupid and childish.

The ONLY thing I liked in the game was the environments. They are beautiful!

I could not care less for ANY of the characters.

This weekend I am treating myself with Castlevania Symphony of the Night on its original hardware! (FINALLY!) That's right! "What is a man? A miserable little pile of secrets!" and all that!

On the side I will be blasting in Serious Sam: The First Encounter and some Diablo-like gaming in Heroes of Ruin!

Have a nice weekend everyone!!!

If a game does not have a playable build on the disc/cartridge it is not a physical edition it is a plastic DRM key.

And on top of that it is not the whole game on the disc. They do the "Early access" crap, so they want only the people who paid for the access to play it.

I hope they lose money.

This weekend I will have some tries at Castlevania Dracula X Chronicles and Castlevania Legacy of Darkness! This year I have beat many Castlevania games for the first time so training to be better in more is my goal

On the side I have Quake 1 and Cyber Shadow

Happy gaming everyone!!!

This weekend will be as casual as possible and the games I chose are Batman Arkham Origins, Wolfenstein The Old Blood, DooM 64 and Super Castlevania IV!

Happy gaming everyone!

Can't vote because I did not get it. If someday they release a normal physical copy of the game, I will play it.

I finished it at the start of this year. A little late to the party and I haven't played 1 or 2. It is a good game.
Little clunky controls but the atmosphere and the stories are amazing!

@Bionic-Spencer I am almost certain that those idiots did it because of the exclusive pre-order for early access.

The same thing Ubisoft did with their latest releases and that is why they can't be played from the discs either.

If physical editions leak earlier those who bought the early access will cry that it is unfair as they paid for that privilege

And that is why the game is NOT on the disc so they can control WHEN you can install it and play it.

And that is why they do not deserve my money for that release.

@GirlVersusGame that is a Paladin from WoW with Tier 2 Raid armor set called Judgement armor.

It is a mashup between the original 2005 version and the latest "remastered" version of the set.

@KingPev It is ok for a modern WoW expansion. But the game is so fast now and so ... spammy that every class feels identical.

This weekend I will play on a small nostalgia note called World of Warcraft. I will level just a little in Season of Discovery after not playing for over a year!

On the side I have Exhumed and Silent Hill 2

Have a nice weekend everyone!!!

I have this weird feeling that Ramsey is dead inside. I do not know why

If you PAY for a physical edition, it should contain a playable build of the game on the physical media. If NOT put a giant label ON the box like the Switch 2 key-carts so people would know and place a disclaimer when pre-ordering online. They OWE US this much.

@GirlVersusGame A DooM trilogy switch cartridge cut in half I had to destroy it to get a replacement from LRG I did not want to throw it away, so I made a sculpture to display it

You can see it better here in this article in Nintendo Life
https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2022/05/random-doom-fan-has-a-novel-way-to-display-a-destroyed-switch-cartridge

@Perturbator yes! It is like a hidden gem! Also the story is amazing!

@PlatinumMikey enjoy the game! I hope to play those games in the future!

And as a bonus they have the game on the physical media 100%

This weekend I will start a new playthrough of DooM Eternal on the Switch.
Also, such a shame that the disc of DooM The Dark Ages does not contain the game, and you need internet to install it and play it. Despicable

I will continue my save in Singularity on the 360 and play some GTA V as I have never touched the story like at all This will be interesting.

Have a nice weekend!

@Oprahs_cellulite Because the publisher decided to put a few MB on the disc and it is worthless. If I was digital only gamer, I would've bought it, but I am not.

All of my games are physical releases that actually have a playable build on the media.

This is the first time they do this to a DooM game btw!

Unfortunately, I will not support this release.

IF LRG do a proper release someday, I will get it but this release does not deserve my money.

I will NOT support that now. Down the road if LRG do a copy of this DooM like they did with the others I will buy it. This is my first skip on a DooM game ...

@Northern_munkey Apparently you own 1 or 2 games on disc?

ALL of my PS5 and PS4 games can be played JUST from the installation from the disc without ANY internet connection.

I own:
PS4 - around 110 games
PS5 - 23 games

Is it just me or like 99% (or dare I say 100%) of the women in the GTA 6 trailers are really thick?

I am either blind or there is no variety at all

@naruball Oh yes! I am waiting for that as well.

However, I am still angry that Ubisoft tried to kill the franchise. Besides Heroes V, 6 and 7 are so generic that it hurts me. They are still fun but unlike the old titles I can't play them for long periods of time.

And I finally found a colleague that likes HoMM 3 to give away my sculpture to free some space to make more

@GirlVersusGame Those are some of my favorite units in Heroes of Might and Magic 3. That is why I decided to make them.

A Vampire Lord

And a Cyclops King
https://mightandmagic.fandom.com/wiki/Cyclops_king_(H3)

More Elden Ring for me. It is harder to play a Faith character than a Quality one, at least for me!

I cleared Limgrave and the Weeping Peninsula. Now I am in Liurnia of the Lakes and hunting for dungeons

On the side I have Heroes of Might and Magic 3 Horn of the Abyss on the Steam Deck and Octopath Traveler on the Switch

Happy gaming everyone!!!

@rusty82 thank you!

This weekend I will play some Blasphemous 2 on the Switch.

I also started a new character in Elden Ring. This time I will try to play with a Faith build

And lastly, for some nostalgia, Shadowgate Classic on the Gameboy Color

Happy gaming everyone!!!

I hope that there is a physical edition down the line. But if it is to happen it will be LRG given their relationship with Bethesda.

@Czar_Khastik that guy is out of town for Easter so no gaming for him

I post first because I know the time. That is all if they change it I will not be the first.

Hehe

@GirlVersusGame Thank you! And I learned a new word! I had no idea what patina means! Praise Google!

@Jaxx420 beaten it only 2 times and I want more. It is one of the closest games to perfection

This weekend will be AWESOME!

I got my first copy of Castlevania Dominus Collection!

In the past 3 days I 100% Castlevania Dawn of Sorrow ... again, and now I am moving to Portrait of Ruin! My goal (like every time) is to get 100% map, 100% item drops and all weapons + spells

On the side I have the glorious Elden Ring and continuation of the journey of my Crusader in Diablo 3!

Happy gaming weekend everyone!!!

PS: When I made the sculpture of the warrior jar from Elden Ring, I thought how cool it would be to put a Switch cartridge of Elden Ring inside. But with those key-carts this seems ... painful

@GoatFace04 the Barm Stoker's Dracula games on Mega Drive/Genesis/Snes, Gameboy and Nes are different games

There is one for the Sega CD I think and it is a different game as well.

The Genesis/Megadrive one is not hard at all. People do not refer to it as a good game, but I really like it.

Also if you ever play it please play the Megadrive/Genesis version over the SNES one. The soundtrack is waaay better even if both are the same game. And there are different gameplay differences that are better on the Sega version.

This weekend I will play some Diablo 3. Started a new Crusader currently at level 46.

I will play one my childhood memories Bram Stoker's Dracula for the Mega Drive! Awesome soundtrack btw!!!

And for relaxing some Ninja Turtles games from the Cowabunga collection

Happy gaming everyone!!!

Hmm people comparing TLoU with Skyrim is weird because Skyrim is actually good and replayable

Skyrim deserved to be on every toaster and calculator in the world!

I will try and finally finish Resident Evil 2 VR. I am on the last part, NEST.

Continue with my second playthrough of Resident Evil 4 Remake.

And last, I will try out Metal Slug Tactics!

Have a nice gaming weekend everyone!

@themightyant Also it means that Ubi do not have any room for future mistakes. They have to play safe.

I expect layoffs or as they call it "restructuring to get out of debt" ...

Why are the Ubi defenders not happy?

We thought that the company is gone for sure. Now it will continue to exist in some pathetic form for a little longer.

Be happy!

That is good news for me. I get to save money! Hurrayy!

@BAMozzy "It doesn't matter if the Disc has ALL the game and its 'perfect' at launch as you'll still have to install it from the Disc to your internal Storage to 'run' from there, not from the Disc itself."

Yes, because the direct disc reading is too slow for the current and previous generation. Also, it is better to install from the disc and use it only as s key because it does not spin constantly, thus being a strain on the optical drive and the disc itself.

So, installation is better.

@Ralizah This is so true! Every time I see such a thing I think of that Johnny Somali character, and I hope he gets what he deserves!

I also wish all of Europe was treated like you said by people from other regions

Ahh another article about the success of Assassin's Creed Shadow! I think there are not enough of those here!

Those are certainly created to inform right? In case the people did not understand how successful the game is from the previous article about is success.

One of the best gaming experiences I have ever had

@RoomWithaMoose Why net loss? If someone else buys them and continue to develop their franchises with better decisions isn't that a win for the gaming industry?

If you really stick to the French representation, I guess it has some value for you. I've never thought about that. There are only a couple of Bulgarian games, and I loved seeing them being played but I am not being particularly proud of that

@RoomWithaMoose The Legacy will be the only good thing that they leave behind. I can't see them making the gaming industry better going forward, especially with that leadership.

I will remember AND play their previous games, but the industry does not need another bloated whale that will burst any moment.

Same goes for Blizzard, they are bad for the industry as well, even if they made some of the MOST epic, defining games of all time.

Those 2 and Microsoft (the gaming department) are my most disappointing companies that plague industry.

@RoomWithaMoose Sorry but I can't see a future without massive layoffs for Ubi. They dug themselves into a hole. If I am not mistaken, they are also being sued right now, for misleading the shareholders?

The most positive future for them is for a new company to get their franchises and keep a small portion of the staff for the future projects.

Even after the Shadows success (I am still not certain of it) it will be just like after Veilguard. Massive layoffs because of higher management.

The gaming industry is in a really bad place right now and bloated companies like Ubi are the main thing that is wrong.

PS: And yes, a physical edition with DRM is my most hated thing for most gaming products. I mean sure I do not like certain agenda driven directions but if it is optional I can enjoy a game.

@RoomWithaMoose I am fine being without Ubisoft. They can be bought, assimilated and renamed. Just like 3DO for example (let's not forget that Ubi bought the HoMM license and butchered the games ). No need for all the people to lose their jobs. Ubi had a golden age, but something happened, and it is really sad.

I am against ALL DRM from ALL companies. I do not care about microtransactions as long as they are 100% optional.

@tameshiyaku PC/Steam is 100% digital, I only care for console physical releases. PC for me is strictly with Internet in mind

And by proper physical edition I mean get the game, put it in the console without internet connection, install it and play it.
One time login after installation is a no go for me. This is DRM and I hate it

@tameshiyaku Could you please share which Capcom games can't be played from the physical media without internet connection?

I mean the game is on the disc/cart but you have to download something from the internet to play.

I am aware of Resident Evil 1, 5 and 6 on the Switch but that is not DRM. They just cheaped out on the cartridge size.

@AhmadSumadi Sure, it is what he said in the transcript but still to see the DRM that followed with Avatar, Outlaws and now Shadows I am sure that he meant it. Because without the Ubi servers you own a plastic coaster, not a game.
