Not reading the rest of the thread so it may have been covered, but it does not seem to be possible to start a new List on mobile.

The Xbox release is the first time Goldeneye has had halfway decent controls. That feels pretty major to me. Maybe one day it will happen for Metroid Prime, too.

EDIT: I would like to take full credit for Metroid Prime getting a re-release with good controls within two weeks of this post.

I don’t know anything about ultra short throw models, but I use an Epson projector as my main tv for movies and gaming and I can’t imagine ever going back to a TV. Quality varies with price, of course, but the mid-range model I use looks as clear as a good TV and can be used in a fully lit room.

I've only finished four new-release 2022 games so far this year, and I'd order them:

1. Pokemon Legends: Arceus
2. The Quarry
3. Horizon: Forbidden West
4. Kirby and the Forgotten Land

HM to Xenoblade Chronicles and Nier Replicant, which aren't 2022 releases, but were new to me.

I swore off clickers in general after spending hundreds of hours getting all of the Xbox achievements in Clicker Heroes. My time is worth more than that.

Easy 0.

I’ve glanced at a couple over the years and found them basically impossible to navigate.

Returnal is an obvious winner for me.

The rest of my top five is probably something like:

Metroid Dread

Resident Evil Village

Halo Infinite

Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart

Unless I’m misreading something, in Australia the increase in subscription price is actually less than the price of buying the Animal Crossing DLC separately. If you were going to get that, it’s a total no-brainer here.

I enjoyed the Xbox version of Third Age, but I remember finding an abuse-able infinite loop of spells that more or less trivialised it completely. My enemies literally never got a turn once I figured it out.
