Review Deadly Premonition Origins (Switch) - A Marvellously Bizarre Cult Classic
The Grand Ol' Mind of York
There’s always been something about Deadly Premonition that has resonated with a gaming audience. Whether it be the quirky cast of characters you meet along the way, the B-movie sentimentality the pours through every scene or the fragmented nature of its mechanics, the phrase ‘cult hit’ has never rang truer. Those...

I mean, I agree with the exception that some form of report on how the game plays on Switch is important. Based on the history of the game we have:
360: Original, clunkier design, but works stable.
PS3: Terrible framerates with very little graphical improvements, heard rumors of crashing but nothing substantial.
PC: Broken as the sanity of the game itself. With one scene requiring either using the cigs for a bit before activating it to prevent it from crashing or putting the game in windows 98 compatibility, the game only functions semi-properly on the best of days and just doesn't any other time. I've had the PC version since launch and still haven't beaten it due to the fact that it takes like 5 tries just to get the thing running on each session.
I love the game, I plan on easily plopping down the 30 for the game, but I want to ensure that this version is actually playable without serious issue. I've had one person report that the sound cut out twice with having to restart the game the only fix, and less than stellar driving performance.
Just had mine update so I wonder if that's the patch to fix audio.
Apart from the audio problem this is by far the best version
@suikoden better than in ps3?
