John Daub of Only in Japan has been having some Gundam-related pronunciation issues lately, too.

I sense you have a lot of unresolved anger you need to deal with. A comments section is not the place to do it in, my friend.

They can, and do, file gameplay-related bugs in their reports. I’ve seen Must Fixes that were not TRC or XR-related stop a title submission attempt before. Usually, it will come back as a recommendation to fix, though. It honestly depends, though, on how thorough the team on Sony or Microsoft’s end is being.

In the…

So much for map integrity testing.

“Remember Tamagotchi? It’s BACK...in smart form.”

Stuff like Death Stranding, Beyond: Two Souls, Detroit, and Days Gone have appeared on PC. So, it’s not like Sony-funded games have not appeared on that platform.

Yeah, if there’s no free upgrade for existing owners, then I’m waiting a long time to pick this up.

Here’s hoping the online play is a bit lively and also links up with the Japanese version. I picked that up back in 2019 and that part of the game never had anyone available to play. The rest of it is quite fun, though.

The RE film series suffers from several problems:

1) They are too divergent from the source material to be good adaptations of the games.
2) Any time they tried to put game elements into the movies, it stuck out like a sore thumb. It never felt organic or necessary. Just Paul W.S. Anderson going “Look! Remember that…

Getting a Table Tennis 2 would require Rockstar to actually make stuff again. What I mean by that is at the pace we saw back in the PS2 era. I’d love for them to make smaller-scale titles and work with some of the IP they haven’t touched in many years.

Sadly, at this point, I can’t see it happening. GTA Online still…

That this even got past internal/external play-testing, along with constant QA runs & feedback, is surprising. But, I also know how developers can be when it comes to what they want to do with their games. Even if the ‘vision’ might come at the expense of player enjoyment.

Activision is going hard on CoD, since it feels like it’s all they have left. I know we’ve had some Crash and Tony Hawk stuff, along with Sekiro. But, like, what else has Activision really done lately? For such a big company, their release slate seems extremely anemic.

MK9 was fun, since it allowed folks to go through the first few games’ stories again with some surprises. MKX wasn’t as good, but I liked that it kind of moved us into MK4/Deadly Alliance territory with a lot of new stuff to see.

MK11 takes all the worst time travel elements it can get its hands on and just says ‘fuck…

Honestly, this can’t be worse than MK11's plot, which was pretty damn bad (then got worse with Aftermath).

Good Times is solid. Haven’t had it in years, but they have great burgers.

While I was still working for Take-Two (2K, specifically), a lot of stuff that got delisted from anywhere was due to music rights. BioShock 1 & 2 before the remasters was pulled, then had music replaced before going back up. Same with the first couple Mafia games.

For the RE2 one, I just signed into a different PSN account. Not a big deal, since the game is just on the horizon.

Such an easy shot to make, but damn it, you get a star. 

“Good smoke”

That’s where I’m at. I plan to go back as soon as I can, so I’m a-okay with taking another stroll down to Osaka.
