Star Fox Zero has alternate paths!

YES!

[Foggle]

It also comes bundled with Project Guard! Two Nintendo/Platinum collaborations in one.

It has been revealed that Nintendo managed to get back all the original voice actors from StarFox 64 to reprise their rolls in StarFox Zero.

The Fox amiibo lets you play as the SNES Arwing. That's just amazing.

Speaking of amazing: The next Kirby game looks AMAZING

Triple Deluxe was already excellent, and this looks even BETTER. Can't wait for June!

The official Star Fox Zero trailer.

Gotta say, I'm excited now.

Wait, Max Payne 4 is supposed to be at E3?!! 

[gunswordfist]

I watched some of Quantum Break on a Twitch channel I mod on right after it came out. It looks pretty damn good.

Excited to play it!

I've been watching TS17's walkthrough of the game. He is a massive fan of Remedy's past games, so he went into this with eager anticipation. His overall thoughts are that he finds the story interesting and enjoys the action to an extent, but is disappointed by the game's short length and also feels that there are missed opportunities with the gameplay and level design that could have made the game amazing.

So, overall, it's good but not great, according to him. Seeing as how I usually tend to agree with his opinions, I'll probably feel similar about the game, but I still definitely want to play it for myself.

Ah, so it is short? Remedy sure does love short titles. Twitch was acting up so I had to reload A LOT so do you have any clue how much live action the game has?

[Foggle]

There are four 22-minute live action segments, I believe.

Honestly, I don't mind if the game is short. I actually tend to prefer short games these days, since my attention span and free time are both a lot more limited than they used to be.

I don't mind short games, either, and in fact prefer them, so long as they are fun and highly replayable. In fact, three out of five of my top five favorite games can actually be beaten in under six hours each on a single playthrough.

I believe what TS17 was insinuating about the game was that the gameplay wasn't quite as strong as in Max Payne and Alan Wake to make him want to invest a lot of time into playing it over again beyond his initial playthrough and the walkthrough on Hard mode that he has been uploading.

Aw, that's disappointing, especially since I already felt like Alan Wake's gameplay was a bit of a step down from Max Payne's.

But yeah, I like playing short games over and over. Long games are great, but unless they end up becoming all-time favorites of mine, I'm generally done with them after a single playthrough. I definitely get more playtime out of short/medium-length games on the whole.

Alan Wake's gameplay was perfect and awesome and in no way flawed!

In all seriousness, though, it's one of my top five favorite games from last gen, so I like it more than almost everyone else. I'd actually argue that the gameplay is more refined than Max Payne, but I prefer Max Payne since it's more my preferred style of gameplay.

That's most Platinum games in a nutshell.

I also love Devil May Cry 3 despite being pretty short, as I've replayed it over a dozen times, and while Ninja Gaiden Black falls under the intermediate length of games (longer than 10 hours but under 20 on a first playthrough), it's significantly shorter on replays once you know what to do.
