It's been about 5 years since the last one. And HSG > Mario Golf. Out of Bounds is still the GOAT golf game. The online tournaments in that game was golf multiplayer perfection. That one had the best courses and characters as well. I was not a fan of Everybody Golf that came out on PS4. What a huge disappointment that game was. They tried to make it open world like every other game wanted to be and it just flat out sucked. I only played the demo of the VR one and it was just alright but I never bought it because it had like very few courses and no online. I'm hoping Clap Hanz is working on a PS5 one.

Man that game didn't last too long did it? Speaking of mobile gaming, I know there are a lot of people who don't like mobile games and I get that. But I think games are kind of like clothes, in that there are certain games you play in certain settings just like you wouldn't wear a suit to the gym or your gym clothes to a white tablecloth place. I don't want to play something I'd need time and focus to get something out of like Bloodborne while I'm waiting on my car to get fixed, like I don't want to play (insert mobile title) when I'm home and could be playing a high quality game at home. It's all about setting for me. Quote Link to comment

Wellman Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Folk waiting on Nintendo or really anyone besides MS to bring the heat. But 2020 while it didn't derail the machines that are major publishers completely it did slow them all down. And Nintendo is a secretive bunch of jokers so those hoping for big bombs should probably not. DarkSakul 1 Quote Link to comment

Yeah, that corporate mind set has got the company wholesale to where they aren't even going to bother to compete on their home turf because that NA and Europe audience is too stacked and their name alone means they won't have any competition from MS when it comes to small to mid range sized developers in Japan, who will stick with Sony or at worst also go in with Nintendo.

Well it doesn't look to be the case well the former at least. The developers in question have basically already jumped ship to Nintendo but some of them are actually forgoing release on Playstation because of Sony's sudden Puritanism. It's weird to see a quirky Japanese game available on Xbox, PC, and Switch but not PS. It's becoming more common though.
