Gaming hot takes? (lemmy.fmhy.ml)

Any weird/controversial opinions? I'll start. Before the remake, the best version of Resident Evil 4 was the Wii version. The Wiimote controls old Resi's tank controls better than any other controller at the time. The PC version had a bunch of little bugs and detractors that the Wii version just doesn't have.

I'll extend this by saying that the Wiimote is actually pretty damn good for shooters, and particularly good for accessibility. Not having to cramp up my hands to press buttons is awesome for having arthritis. Aiming with the Wiimote and moving with the nunchuck just feel really natural, you barely have to move your fingers for anything.

The Apple II is still the most fun I've ever had playing games. Even now, I will regularly go back and play games like Snake Byte and Swashbuckler in an emulator.

Gaming has been actually dead for almost 10 years.

Occasionally the body twitches, but virtually all of my purchases in the last long time are just catching up with all the great things created before the collapse.

Microsoft buying Activision/Blizzard would be the best thing to happen to WoW in a long time.
