Why now’s the best time to get into the Pac-Man World series
Posted on 2 weeks ago by Ethan in Features, Switch | 0 comments
One of my personal highlights from the recent Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase was the Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac reveal. That was really the only highlight from the Partner Direct for me, but it was a big one! I grew up playing Pac-Man World 2 on GameCube and never thought we’d be looking at a full-on remake over 20 years later. If you’re a fan of 3D platformers, then it’s a great time to try out the Pac-Man World series for the very first time.
Today, we’re looking at Pac-Man World Re-Pac on the Nintendo Switch, which is a remake of the original Pac-Man World on the PlayStation. Normally, the remake costs $30 – but it goes on sale a lot, which makes it even more accessible for those looking to try the Pac-Man World games for the first time. The digital version has dropped below $10 numerous times, so keep an eye out for sales if you’re interested in giving it a shot.
Super Mario Odyssey vs. Donkey Kong Bananza – comparing the games, deciding which is better
Posted on 2 weeks ago by Ethan in Features, Switch, Switch 2 | 0 comments
Donkey Kong Bananza has been out for over a month now, and it’s been met with glowing reviews and plenty of excitement. I gave it a great score in my own review, but after writing it there was one specific question on my mind – is it better than Super Mario Odyssey? In a way, you could say comparison is the thief of joy, but this gave me an excuse to replay both Odyssey and Bananza to form a conclusive answer. And by “conclusive answer”, I mean “an opinion backed up by a couple thousand words’ worth of explanations”. So today, we’re doing a Super Mario Odyssey vs. Donkey Kong Bananza analysis, comparing their strengths and weaknesses, and seeing which one comes out on top – if any. Do keep in mind that we’ll eventually discuss spoilers for both games, so you might want to bookmark this post and come back later if you’re trying to avoid Donkey Kong Bananza’s ending details.
