Can we just get a new game?

Did you ever play A2?

I only played the PlayStation and first GBA titles.

Wild Konami could resurrect Vandal Hearts. Ensuring the quality is the same as Ogre Battle or FFT.

Absolutely! I would take a new game in a second.

I played Advanced and A2 but come to think of it, never finished A2. I have been watching GBA online game releases on Switch, but to my knowledge they have never come up.

The Vandal Hearts PS3 game was okay, but it lacked a bit of what VH on PS1 had. I never actually played Vandal Hearts 2, but would love to have both come back as classics.

I love all tactics games outside of a few (Disgaea being the big one that never clicked with me). It is probably my favorite genre of video game.

I tuned in and saw he was fighting Genichiro

Genichiro fight was pure art. Harnessing the lightning mid air was mind blowing.

Supposedly Sony tried to the exclusivity for Starfield. MS bought Bethesda

I think that was the best fight in the game.

rocksteady’s last 2 have been awful.

hopefully they can do an old school batman game.

 

[Ricky D]

What were their last two? Suicide Squad and ???

I enjoyed the Arkham trilogy and wouldn’t mind seeing a new entry. It would be dope a different Batman or maybe a bigger focus on stealth. Idk just something a bit different.

dead rising remaster is great!

as an og fan of the original it’s hitting most of the right notes HOWEVER it is definitely easier with its more streamline approach

i have some mix feelings with the lighting as well, i preferred the more anime/cartoony colorful look of the original

but those are all just geek nitpicks, having a chill time with it so far

 

[HNL HI]

i've held out on the ps5 for this long but im in on this special edition...i still think about the 20th anniversary ps4

Any Day 1 PS5 owners still have theirs?

Mines still works great. Even after the fire a year later.

The plates have smoke stains on them but i figured i would just leave it like that.

Gotta do an internal cleaning. Haven’t done that in a while. Add new thermal paste as well.

 

[Bad Religion]

Interesting looking game!

TBH, all of the boss fights in Sekiro were absolutely breathtaking.

I think the most memorable to me was the headless ape. It looked like a regular enemy....then I kept running towards it and realized it was a fkin giant.

When the ape turns around and looks at you

Microsoft has recently been doing some great stuff for accessibility.

Game was perfection.

Still have a Day 1 and works perfectly fine. Added an internal SSD and black plates. Think it's why I'm leaning more towards the controller and eventually trading towards a Pro down the road.

If ya had to compare launches, how would you compare the OG PS1 to the rest?

Probably got PS5 with Miles Morales, Demon Souls and Astros Playroom

Then

PS2>PS3>PS4>PS1.

Man, this industry is on such an unsustainable march.

The thing is, it got good-to-great reviews, and made it's money back after 3 days on the market.
