Possibly due to the amount of work it would require to get it to run on the Switch, look how long it took Respawn to get Apex Legends on Switch.

The reason for the multi-platform of the Show has been public domain for over a year at least. Something the fanboys need to do, is do some research.
Will be interesting to see what the EU antitrust regulators says on Microsoft's acquisition of Zenimax Media. If that goes through.....Fanboyism is going to get even more toxic than it already is.

There's a demo for SkateBird on Steam. It's a little rough, but it's still in development so hopefully that changes. If it's cheap enough I'll buy it regardless because I want to support indie developers who try something new.

Ok - but how were the bird sounds? Were they varied / repetitive / high def / non-fatiguing?

What are you, some kind of anti-avian?
There's a slider to adjust the bird sounds. I made that up.

Depends how you play. Its a full sandbox. I trained my character for the adventure/exploration/espionage side of things. Others can be combat oriented, and others centered around mining and manufacturing.

Gears Tactics is pretty fun. I played the 1st XCOM a while back and enjoyed it. This game is similar in style while still pulling honoring the GoW series. Once you get the hang of it it's pretty fun, albeit a slower pace than the regular Gear games. Didn't think I would enjoy it was much as I am.

For anyone who hasn't played it, Ghost of Tsushima is on on sale on the PSN store... $50 or so. Definitely worth it for that.
I don't finish too many games (or even start them lol) but this one is a small handful I completed in the last 10 years.
Starts getting repetitive by the third act, but overall it's pretty stellar. It gets a lot of comparison to RDR2, but it's more akin to Far Cry 3. Tight gameplay and fight mechanics. Cheesy but somewhat compelling story.

I tried to play the Crash Bandicoot remake trilogy with my kid, but the difficulty is just absurd. After hitting the game over screen about a dozen times on the Road to Nowhere level I gave up. My daughter is disappointed because she wanted to save the kidnapped girl, but it's just impossible to get past that level

Couldn’t believe how much I ended up playing and enjoying this game. Bought the game on sale in December due to the great reviews, didn’t have any prior interest in samurai and/or open world games, but somehow ended up spending 100 hours playing through the campaign twice and then spending another 40+ hours playing the free multiplayer add-on Legends modes.
Great vfm, and the game runs at a slick 60 FPS on the ps5. Definitely the most addictive game I’ve played in along time, so much so that it’s my one and only platinum trophy. Would recommend to anyone.

Yeah this, great game. In terms of fully finishing it, it probably helps that it's quite a short game...or at least in comparison to the marathon-style games I'm used to playing (AC, GTA/RDR, etc). I wasn't ready to say goodbye to Jin yet after only 6 weeks! Think I'll circle back and play it again once I'm done Valhalla.
Definitely DL Ghost if you haven't played it yet, it's worth it.

I'm like 120 hours into Valhalla and while I'm enjoying it there is that feeling of it becoming a marathon. Part of that has to do with me having to get all the good gear and do as many side quests as possible of course as there's just something in my brain that prevents me from just sticking to the main quests of games to blow through it quickly.

Sounds like the average AC experience, haha. Yeah man, I'm the exact same way with side quests. I basically roughly make my way in the direction of the next main quest, and will tackle any gold, blue or white icons that happen to pop up in that general direction along the way. And I won't move on to the next shire until all those glowing icons have been conquered (save for bosses/animals too levelled up for me yet). Makes for a long game for sure.
I really like this one, and there's lots of improvements in many areas over the past couple AC games...but for some reason I haven't cracked out on it the way I did Origins/Odyssey. Even on weekends I find my average session for the day to be about 2-3 hrs max, whereas I could play the other 2 basically all day.
I think part of it is AC just happened to cover my top 2 alltime favourite historical periods in back to back games (ancient Greece, ancient Egypt), whereas I've never been overly interested by vikings or their lore. But maybe it's something else too?

I also gave up although did make it past Road to Nowhere before getting stuck at Heavy Machinery.
I heard something that the developers changed the hit box from rectangular to oval, reducing your margin for error in what was already a very difficult game.
Nothing wrong with developers making a challenging game but sometimes they forget it also needs to be fun.

I've never been a big RTS fan but I enjoyed XCOM 2 so I decided to give this game a shot. It's a lot more fun than I expected as well.

I've played a bit, I personally am not a fan but if you like Minecraft or games such as that you'll like it. Friends of mine keep raving about it
