I would like either Master Chief’s armor or the Buster Sword from FFVII (Feel free to include weapons like I did since I was having a brain fart on the word “weapon” and said accessories instead. Side effect of not having any sugar for 2 weeks) Brydude: Do you guys think Cory in the House will dethrone Expedition 33 for number 1 on Metacritic? campfire_knight: What is/are your guilty game(s)?  For me, the definition of a guilty pleasure game is more about, "Man, i really ought to play something else that is either more new or is of higher quality than this thing.  However, i just can't stop myself from playing this game every now and again."The game that probably best fits this category for me is FF10-2.  There are better JRPGs in terms of gameplay mechanic loops, story, and sidequests.  But I have yet to find another JRPG that is centered around a bunch of magical girls kicking butt Charlie's Angel style the way FF10-2 does!!  Also, WHO THE HECK IS LENNE??🦉  What we’re playing:  Mary: Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, Hades 2, Silksong  John: The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy  Greg: Marvel Rivals, Blops 7, PSP - Lemmings, Rocket League  Brett L: Super Mario Galaxy 2 (beat), Kirby and the Forgotten Land:  Star Crossed World  Brett M: The Outer World 2 (beat), Dragon Age The Veilguard

    Press X's 2025 GAMES OF THE YEAR Special!

    Press X Join the Press X Discord: https://discord.gg/MAXtvmv2rw Topics: Making Metroid Prime 4 was originally a request from Nintendo of America; when Retro Studios took over its development, they no longer had the structure to make a MP game and had to rebuild https://nintendoeverything.com/metroid-prime-4-developer-interview-origins-challenges/ Its open-world hub was a concession to old pleas from fans for an open-world Metroid that it became too late to change course on later as people’s attitudes towards open-world games changed https://nintendoeverything.com/nintendo-discusses-its-approach-to-metroid-prime-4-and-why-it-isnt-open-world/ Pikmin 3 Deluxe rated for Switch 2 in Europe https://www.gematsu.com/2025/12/pikmin-3-deluxe-rated-for-switch-2-in-europe Jez Corden: First Call of Duty Switch version "is nearly done and launching in a few months" https://x.com/JezCorden/status/2003171421879460027 NateTheHate: The Switch 2 “devkit delivery situation has largely been resolved” (in other words, it looks like devs getting a Switch 2 devkit isn’t a problem anymore) https://mynintendonews.com/2025/12/29/natethehate-nintendo-switch-2-dev-kit-availability-has-largely-been-resolved/   Questions from Discord:  Joe: What are your biggest disappointments of the year? For me it honestly might be the Switch 2. I just think outside of Donkey Kong the first-party titles aren't the best so far. Plus, the high price of the system, charging $80 for a Mario Kart with less content than the previous title, key cards, etc. Also, Microsoft, fuck ‘em. Campfire_knight: Here's a fun question: What is your annual game(s) that you replay? For me, I probably replay Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, and Dark Souls 3 the most of any of the games I own. They are just so near and dear to my heart.🦉  What we’re playing:  Mary: Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, Hades 2, Silksong  John: The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy, Mortal Kombat Legacy Kollection Greg: Marvel Rivals, Blops 7, PSP - Lemmings, Rocket League  Brett L: Super Mario Galaxy 2 (beat), Kirby and the Forgotten Land:  Star Crossed World Brett M: The Outer Worlds 2
