Starfox has such a unique cast of characters, but Fox McCloud often takes the spotlight. If you could choose one Starfox character to get their own standalone game, who would it be and why? Whether it's Falco's cocky attitude, Peppy’s wisdom, or Slippy’s tech skills, there's potential for some interesting spin-offs. What kind of game would you want to see for them? Adventure, racing, or something totally different?

GameCube had a ton of great party games perfect for game nights! Whether it was competitive multiplayer or co-op fun, there were so many options. What was your favorite GameCube game to play with friends or family? Did you stick to classics like Super Smash Bros. Melee or Mario Kart: Double Dash, or did you have a hidden gem that stole the show?

The Nintendo 64 controller is often seen as bulky due to its many buttons, but was there a reason for all the extra inputs? Was it trying to accommodate new gameplay styles, or was there a specific game design purpose behind the unique layout? How did the button-heavy design impact game controls and player experience? Would the N64 controller have been better off with fewer buttons, or was it ahead of its time?

Luigi has starred in several games over the years, each with its own unique charm. From the spooky adventures of Luigi’s Mansion to the platforming fun of New Super Luigi U, there's something for everyone. Which one stands out to you as your favorite, and why? Is it the thrill of ghost hunting, the quirky gameplay, or perhaps the nostalgia of a classic title?

With Bowser being such an iconic villain in the Mario franchise, each game gives him a unique twist. From his classic appearances in Super Mario Bros. to his more complex designs in Super Mario Odyssey, there's a lot to choose from. Do you prefer the classic, fiery menace, or the more evolved, multi-dimensional versions of him?

It feels like Xbox has lost its way when it comes to creating standout games. Aside from a few titles like Halo Infinite (decent single-player experience but the multiplayer was a crapfest to say the least) and Forza Horizon, there’s a noticeable lack of innovative and memorable exclusives. They’ve acquired a lot of studios, but the results haven’t been up to par. Is it just me, or does it feel like they’ve forgotten how to create those must-play experiences that defined them in the past?

The Xbox 360 had a ton of great RPGs, but some flew under the radar. What do you think is the most underrated RPG from that era? Whether it's for its story, gameplay, or unique features, let’s give some love to those hidden gems that didn’t get the attention they deserved. What RPG would you recommend to those who missed it back in the day?

Phil Spencer claimed sometime ago that Xbox can't compete, regardless of how many great games they create. What do you make of this statement? Is it an honest reflection of the gaming industry, or does it reveal deeper issues within Xbox's strategy? Does this mean Xbox needs to rethink its approach, or is it just a realistic acknowledgment of the current market dynamics?
-
With recent shifts in Xbox’s strategy and decisions, such as the push for Game Pass and changes to exclusives, some have questioned Phil Spencer’s leadership. While he’s been praised for bringing Xbox into a more service-oriented approach, others feel his choices have led to setbacks in the console’s appeal. Do you think he’s done a great job steering Xbox, or is he not living up to expectations? What do you think of his impact on the gaming brand?

I’ve recently been diving into PlayStation history and came across some interesting tidbits. For example, did you know that the original PlayStation (PS1) was originally intended to be a collaboration with Nintendo for a Super Nintendo CD-ROM add-on? It’s crazy to think how that partnership fell apart and led to the creation of the iconic PlayStation brand! What’s some other lesser-known fact about PlayStation that blew your mind?

Do you prefer sorting games by genre, release date, or maybe even how often you play them? Are you using folders, physical storage, or just relying on the digital layout? Any tips for making it easier to find what you’re in the mood for?

With the current generation of consoles well underway, how do you think PlayStation is managing its exclusives? Are their first-party titles living up to expectations, or do you feel they're falling short? How does this compare to Xbox's Game Pass strategy and Nintendo's unique approach with the Switch? Do you think PlayStation is doing better, worse, or on par with its competitors in terms of exclusive content?

In recent years, PlayStation has made significant moves towards digital services, like expanding PS Plus and embracing digital-only consoles. How do you feel about this shift? Do you think it's a step forward, or do you miss physical media and the experience of owning discs? Are digital services improving the gaming experience, or do they create new challenges for gamers?

I recently stumbled upon the PSP camera accessory and was curious if anyone here has used it. It seems like a fun little add-on, but I wonder if it was truly worth the investment back in the day. How was the quality of the pictures and videos? Were there any standout games or features that made it a must-have, or was it just a novelty item?

Facts. When I heard that sound, I just knew I was in for a good time. -
Which Charging Dock Do You Use for Your PS5 DualSense Controllers?
killamch89 replied to killamch89's topic in Playstation
He ended up going with the PS5 Dualsense charging station because according to him, it's made by Sony so you know it'll work flawlessly with the Dualsense controllers. -
Do You Think PlayStation Will Release Another Handheld Console?
killamch89 replied to killamch89's topic in Playstation
According to Bloomberg, Sony are working on a new handheld. I had posted this question like three days before that piece of news came out. -
What’s a PlayStation demo that convinced you to buy a game?
killamch89 replied to killamch89's topic in Playstation
For me, the first demo I ever got with my PS1 had Metal Gear Solid and that's what got me into the series in the first place. There was also one that came out on the PS2 that had both Primal and the first Ratchet And Clank game on it and that's what convinced me to buy both games back in the days. -
How Can Sony Evolve the DualSense Controller?
killamch89 replied to killamch89's topic in Playstation
Personally, The DualSense is amazing, but I think focusing on basics like battery life would make the biggest impact for most players. It’s frustrating when you’re in the middle of an intense session and have to charge. Sony could also work on durability, especially for the adaptive triggers and sticks, since these are prone to wear over time with heavy use. Solid improvements in these areas would make the controller even better in my opinion. -
Thoughts on the PS1 Multitap for Multiplayer Gaming?
killamch89 replied to killamch89's topic in Playstation
In my opinion, the Multitap had potential, but I felt like it was only worth it for a handful of games. Many PS1 titles were still designed with only two players in mind, so unless you loved games like Twisted Metal or sports titles, it could feel underused. It was cool, but not essential for everyone. -
What's your favorite demo disc from the PS1 or PS2 era?
killamch89 replied to killamch89's topic in Playstation
I loved how demo discs gave us access to games we might never have tried otherwise. One that stands out for me is the PS1 disc with Metal Gear Solid. It blew my mind and totally changed what I thought video games could be. Nowadays, I feel like we’ve lost some of that discovery, even with all the free-to-play games and online betas. -
What’s Your Favorite Sly Cooper Game and Why?
killamch89 replied to killamch89's topic in Playstation
Honestly, Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves is also my favorite. The sheer variety of gameplay blew me away, from recruiting new characters to the epic pirate battles. It felt like a culmination of everything the series had built up to, and the multiplayer minigames were a fun bonus. -
My favorite has to be Up Your Arsenal. It struck the perfect balance between humor, story, and gameplay. The multiplayer mode was also way ahead of its time - my friends and I spent countless hours battling it out. It’s a classic that holds up even today.

For me, It's definitely Captain Qwark. His mix of arrogance, incompetence, and accidental heroism never fails to crack me up. Plus, his over-the-top narration in Up Your Arsenal and A Crack in Time is legendary. He’s the perfect example of a loveable goofball you can’t help but root for (and laugh at).
