I don't like them but I know a ton of people do. So in the future, look out for Monster Hunter @iPwn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually traded in my Xbox towards my switch and haven’t regretted it. I do miss playing Diablo 3 tho. I haven’t played Mario kart yet but have heard it’s fun as hell. Zelda is pretty amazing. Mario Odyssey is awesome. The indie games have been extremely popular on the system like Golf story. IMO the games will just keep getting better. I think in the beginning developers were unsure about the switch but now with the amazing numbers it has made, they will start coming out with even more games as well. Best part is the handheld mode. It’s basically the only way I play it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is like the largest issue I have with it. Marketing, and if there's enough money behind it, it probably will become an olympic sport.

Broncofan Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 (edited) My only caution about Zelda: BoTW: 1. Be prepared to play 60-80 hours minimum to finish the main story barebones. 2. If you are a completionist like my 11 year old is - 250 hours. And still going lol. 3. Once you play this game it’s hard to go back to any other action RPG. Or frankly any game. That amazing. Until this game Last of US was unmatched as my all time favorite game. Now they are neck and neck. I’ve gamed since Link To The Past and I’ve only played 4 Zelda games not married to them so I don’t say the above lightly.

League is crazier than that. There are 10 North American LoL teams in the pro league. 5 Teams have some kind of involvement with the NBA (Rockets (Clutch Gaming), Warriors (Golden Guardians), Cavs (100 Thieves), Buck's co-owner (Flyquest), and Rick Fox (Echo Fox)) I would say 3 teams are major esports franchises (Cloud 9, Team Liquid, and Optic Gaming). And the last two are practically the founders of LoL esports in TSM ans CLG. They also aren't shabby overall esports franchises, but I hesistate to call them top. Although to my knowledge, Team Liquid isn't actually backed by Disney, they share like a commom invester or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
