Sorry if this has been asked before in light of recent events, but are there any multiplayer games that function like Jackbox Games (only one host copy necessary and everyone can play via phones/browsers)? I’m thinking of hosting a virtual game night with friends, but don’t necessarily want to only play Jackbox Games.

I got the peggle roguelike and it seems pretty ok from the one run I did but I'm slightly disappointed that they don't realise that one of the best things in peggle is the sliding slots



instead it's all just scattered pegs (and the physics are floatier than peggle I think but it's been a long time since I played it)



That's what looked so wrong about the roguelike peggle! I thought I was just being snobby about the worse art style, but the sliders opened up a lot of fun peggle board designs. Can't really replace it with any arrangement of pegs.

The new DOOM is much more gamey than the last one. Demons blowing up into powerup confetti and straight up 1-ups and Mario fire chains. As someone that hasn't watched any prerelease videos its kinda wild, I dig it

Yeah it's a requirement for their employees to try to push all of the various things like protection programs, subscriptions, etc. I know upselling isn't something exclusive to gamestop but gamestop is super pushy with it.

I have PS4, PC and Switch. I'll give that one a look, thanks!

I was hoping that there were some board game adaptations that would work, but most of them only offer multiplayer if everyone owns a copy. The idea would be that I could just send everyone a Twitch link and they could join from there. After looking for an hour though, I think I'm out of luck trying to find something as seamless as Jackbox.

Why not pay $60 then buy the DLC when it comes out (or be too lazy to play/reinstall the game 3 months after beating it and never buy the DLC)

Maybe gamestop will finally actually die and people will do the sane thing of selling used games to each other instead of using a middle man that literally charges double what they pay out, making their profit:effort ratio second only to Title Loan companies (who will also hopefully die)

Never preorder poo poo, no matter how much you’ll think you’ll like it. Paying today for something you’ll get in whatever number of months is for suckers, regardless of how good it ends up being.

Personal Anecdote: I preordered Dark Souls 2, put it down after a couple hours, never got into it until years later when Scholar of the First Sin came out. So, there’s a game I like a lot and still should never have preordered.

EDIT: Oh, and it also came with some preorder goodies that I literally cannot remember in the slightest. I think one of them was a really boring comic?
