Origins I wouldn’t call perfect, but it did feel like a much needed departure from the norm at the time. Black Flag was the only game that stuck out from the series outside the Ezio trilogy, but the other AC games kinda just blended together.

I’m with you on that one. If it works, it works. For a couple more years, at least.

Wow, this is a pretty big deal. The persona series has been locked on Sony consoles for the past 2 decades, for who knows what reason.

They should just start bundling the game with an external hard drive.

The studio is cursed, I tells you. Cursed to make games as if it were writing books with no ending, forever.

It ran fine on my PC, but I still had horrible pop in and loading issues when it wasn’t installed on an SSD. The game just does not want to be on slow storage, so I can only imagine how bad it’ll be when playing it off a Switch cart or SD card.

It’s my first run with it. I haven’t gotten that far in, but gameplay feels like a culmination of all the past games’ mechanics, which feels nice. I’m liking it.

Final Fantasy VI and Tales of Vesperia. I’ve built a whole backlog of PS3 and 360 games to play over the past couple months, including other Tales of games, but if I move on from the RPGs I’m playing now I’m probably not gonna pick them back up for a long time.

Microsoft store in a nutshell. When it works, it works, but if anything goes wrong, there’s little to nothing you can do short of a complete reinstall.

Not here, though. EA actually did a good and open sourced an old game. Well, the only catch is that you also have to make your own tweaks open source as Psyk60 points out, but that’s it.

Under the GPLv3 license, a whole heaping helping of nothing! Anyone can go as nuts with the source code as the license allows.

Probably just a PR rep doing their best deflect blame, as they are wont to do. Doubt this tech they supposedly use even exists.

Kotaku was merely a shackle to keep his delaying powers in check.

This dumpster fire of a Spring semester is finally behind me, so I have more time to do important things like cook and desperately try to hold onto my job. Also play games.

I don’t really understand what this fan is even supposed to do. For one, the Switch doesn’t get even remotely as hot in portable mode to necessitate an external fan, especially the more efficient Mariko revision models. Even if it does, your hands aren’t anywhere near the hot zones. Same for modern phones, where you…

Just buy a repair kit or some replacement joysticks if you have the tools already, as long as you have good tweezers to grip the ribbon cable right. Replacement sticks are super easy to find, usually in packs of two for around 10 bucks, and iFixit has a great teardown guide. It takes 15 minutes, tops, to open it up,…

Yep, much like FFVI, the GBA version is the best official version, with the Steam version butchered all the same.

Yeah, they’ve already been upfront with this Starfield thing taking priority. Hope the risk pays off.

This feels like the gaming industry equivalent to the darksydephil unboxing video.

Ha, forget Konami. What the hell is Koei Tecmo going to do with the dang thing?
