I still never understand why people compare this to No Man’s Sky. Completely different games.

Anyway, the game is fun. A little repetitive but I’m enjoying it. Star Fox does help but I’m enjoying playing as Eli as well. The digital edition is much more worth it unless you want the toys.

I do think Ubisoft missed an opportunity to give each console an exclusive character. Ratchet & Clank would fit perfectly in this universe and would have given the PlayStation version much more appeal.

Wow, that's really cool. I noticed he seemed out of breath during one of the phone calls while I was swinging through the city and thought, 'that'd be cool if he would speak normally if I stopped swinging. But that's impossible.' And kept swinging lol.

@solocapers Do you mean connecting directly to the PS4? Cause that's what I usually did. I think I used the wrong words. I would bring my PS4 somewhere and then remote play there lol. But as a handheld playing PS4 games away from the console, I was never able to get that working.

@Biotechzilla I forgot there's a 4g Vita, huh? Mine is WiFi only. And people got that to work "on the go?" (Sorry, I had to. Don't kill me!) That's cool.

I guess my point was just that the Switch makes the hybrid thing so easy that it's something people are more likely to use.

I think a big difference is that the Vita just isn't very good for "Console Style" games. It's missing two shoulder buttons, doesn't have clickable sticks, and honestly isn't very comfortable to control. And Remote Play only really worked over Wifi so it wasn't really portable.

With the Switch, there is literally no difference in how you play. The only real difference is the screen size (excluding some porly optimized 3rd party games). And with Switch, it's extremely easy to ...well... switch between the two modes.

I also think attitudes may have changed with the Wii U as the one thing people seemed to universally like about it was the ability to so easily do Off TV play. So the Switch took that idea and finally made Off TV play untethered. Which I think people have actually wanted, it just never was done right.

This would be an automatic buy if it starred Troy McClure.

I played WipEout HD to death on my old PS3. I can't even count how many hours I must have spent playing Zone Mode. I had no idea this was coming so I'm very excited about this. Time to put together a new racing playlist!

@kyleforrester87 Wow, that's impressive. Hey look I did it too!

Funnily enough, I'm sort of glad about this delay. The last couple months have seen a string of great games coming out and this will give my wallet a little breather

I will say that part of this probably comes from what playing video games has taught us. In most games, you can do everything. The game waits while you do every side quest, catch every fish, grind to get your character to a specific level, find every upgrade, etc. I think after years of playing games, that must sort of ingrain in us this idea that we need to do everything, experience everything we want, which in real life, is simply impossible. So we feel stressed out when there are 3 huge open world games we want to play but 3 are coming out the following month. There are so many games now it becomes a race to finish the game to get to the next, instead of just enjoying what we can and not worrying about missing out. They are just games after all.
Also, the video game industry seems to convince us that we need to play new games now or our lives are not complete.

Was not expecting to see a Les Mis quote lol. Looks pretty awesome, though I'm sure I would never be able to make anything substantial with it.
