Not sure if this totally counts but my favorite is the Chao raising systems in the Sonic Adventure games

I can’t think of any memorable “hacking” type ones as they all just become a chore by the end. Fable II has some wood chopping, pie making and lute playing that wasn’t so bad if you can get a high multiplier going.

As for actual “games within a game” then Shenmue series has many gambling and arcade machines. Roll it On Top, Lucky Hit, Darts and then Arterburner, Space Barrier, Outrun and Hang On.

PS5 and a Steam Deck aren’t massively different in price. Building a PC can be relatively the same price during sales depending on your expectation. And then the games on PC are so much more often cheaper, that it saves a lot of money on that front.

Over the last few years, I have bought countless games for Steam at a few bucks or less that were $20+ on PS.

And that’s not even getting into how garbage Sony customer service has been for over a decade when you need them.

I might regret wasting money on a PS5. I play Steam Link or Steam Deck more than anything today, and this is likely my last console Gen. Steam also has controller configuration settings that make playing older games so much nicer. Some games I never thought I’d comfortably play with a controller can be modernized very well with enough tinkering.

The Nintendo Switch is an appallingly slow and clunky piece of handheld. Nintendo hardware is slow and their UI, eshop, and general software designs suck. They are immensely restrictive about game saves, ownership, and transferring things to new systems, and their stuff is needlessly pricey.

I don’t even bother with Xbox. PC for that.

I don’t know if it counts but Red Dead Redemption introduced me to Liar Dice! Now I freakin’ love Liar Dice!

Rockstar loves minigames. They even have an arcade in gta online

FICSIT Productivity Packer Deluxe (Satisfactory). It’s a fun little game available at The HUB once it is fully upgraded. You take Tetris-like pieces and arrange them to fit within a square, completing as many squares as you can within the time limit to determine your score.

Then again, the real mini game in Satisfactory is the planning that goes into your factory while you are not playing the game. It’s the game that just keeps on giving.

thanks_shakey_snake,

The minigame is a spreadsheet on one monitor and a production planner on the other and it’s awesome 👌

Sometimes, it bothers me that this community has been taken over by the pc gaming bros. I guess it’s reflective of lemmy as a whole. After the burst of new users, you got a lot of diversity systemwide.

But that’s gone again now, and we are just left with the overly technical people who are going to circlejerk about the same things over and over.

Lemmy just didn’t stick, and this is what we have left.

Blackmist,

It was the same on Reddit as well.

PC gamers supposedly everywhere, meanwhile you can barely buy a decent GPU for the price of a PS5.

BorgDrone,

But that’s gone again now, and we are just left with the overly technical people who are going to circlejerk about the same things over and over.

I’m one of those ‘overly technical’ people and have zero interest in PC gaming. I prefer my PS5. I don’t want to mess around with computers too much in my spare time when I already do that for 40+ hours a week at work.

Anaconda in TimeSplitters 2, mostly for the incredibly catchy music.

I believe the correct answer is the loading screen minigames from Dragon Ball Budokai Tenkaichi 1-3

The Yamcha Spirit ball one had me actually trying to hit each item every time there was a loading screen lol

I’m really enjoying my Xbox Series X with a Gamepass subscription. I’ve played a much wider variety of games than I normally would have.

You’re right though, the jump between generations is getting less and less noticeable. N64 to Gamecube was like night and day.

The Mystery Ranch Catalyst might fit what you want. Comes in a few sizes, but it’s a very sleek pack that is well built and durable.

They are designed for motorcycles but this is what I used commuting on my bike. One outer pocket, an inner flap and the rest is open space. Expensive, but nice

DeepChill,

The Max 28 looks interesting. Thx!

My partner and I got a PS5 when they became available and only played a couple of games on it. It mostly collects dust now. I’d attribute a lot to PlayStation’s games becoming more available on PC.

Detroit: Become Human fits the bill perfectly! It’s a great game with some of the hardest choices you’ll ever make in a game period.

2077 cyberpunk only plays out badly

Drewelite,

The saddest ending is the one where you win.

sealhaslupus,

technically on par for a dystopian game
