Switch Sports Resort is pretty good, especially after the lacklustre last couple of entries. You get nine sports - tennis, bowling, golf, archery, volleyball, basketball, table tennis, boxing and, erm, thumb wrestling - plus prop planes, skateboards and power cruisers allowing you to explore the island and look for hidden secrets.
It feels like a big, generous package and there's much more in the way of single-player stuff to do in this than there has been before, with lots of unlocks and a full "Island Crown" mode leading you up through twenty different ranks in each of the sports. Plus full split-screen multiplayer and online, of course.
It's just nice to have one of these back on a system I own (haven't played one really since Wii Sports Resort) and we're having a lot of fun with it.
Not sure where to post this, but BioWare have just announced they are being closed down.
The games industry is absolutely screwed, isn’t it?
Absolute madness, the game is enormous already. Complaining they were cut is just ridiculous.
I’m buying it, obviously. I’m never going to finish this game.
I don't follow football so the Man City thing has passed me by, but aren't they all at it? I'd always assumed football had been just a money laundering exercise for at least thirty years now, for pretty much every major team, and Man City were just doing it a bit more or less subtly than all the others. In the same way I just assume Olympic athletes are all on drugs, just really good ones that haven't been detected yet.
I enjoyed this first time experience so much, I'm looking into the prequel/sequels and new remake, wary of the fact that after 5+ games the mechanic might get a bit stale but I think experiencing them is something I want to do at some point.
I played the first two on the original Xbox, way back on first release. I remember finding the first one the scarier of the two (although the second had better jump scares) and my favourite of the two overall. I don't know why it always seems to be the second one that gets remade over and over though, while the first one is basically forgotten.
