dudeman said:I just recently acquired a PS3. Have a Nintendo Wii and a PS2 that haven't been played in probably 7 years. This one probably won't get much use either but at least I have it for a rainy day.
The PS3 and Xbox 360 are certainly outclassed by new tech but those systems and games are super cheap right now. The jump from the PS2 to the PS3 seems like a pretty massive leap to me. Still haven't scratched the surface of the 70-some games that this thing came with.0 -
I restarted Odin Sphere Leifthrasir (i have no idea how to pronounce that) which I played for about an hour about 8 years ago. It has some new concepts for game design that I felt were odd (level map design). It is made by Atlus, so with that strong pedigree I gave it a second try and I'm starting to see the genius in it.

I played Mario Kart World for the first time with my niece ... It is 7 year old approved as well as 40-something approved! It was a lot more fun that I was expecting. The open world is great and there is always something catching your I to go after.The Cow driver is pretty dope as well.Be Excellent To Each OtherParty On, Dudes!0

Part of me wanted to wait for DK to go on sale … $70 for a game is insane. The positive user reviews made me decide to go for it because Nintendo could wait a year before a sale … Mario plays the long game for extracting maximum gold coins from our pockets unlike most developers that panic and put their games on sale 2 months after launch.
It seems like a good game from the get-go, although I’m not seeing a $70 “Must Play” or “10/10” from my initial few hours. I think the launch hype of the Switch 2 and lack of Switch 2 games are inflating opinions. S-Tier would be Zelda BOTW or Super Mario Galaxy. This feels more A-Tier, which still speaks high praise.
Kids will LOVE this game. 7 year old approved on my end. Anyone that gets slight finger pain from mashing buttons will not enjoy as much for extended sessions ...

Atari has a Pac Man edition 2600 up for pre-order:Looks pretty sweet! I still have a lot of Atari games that this can play, so I plucked down for a pre-order. It also has HDMI output.
