my guess is that they’ll redo the sprites, sticking close to the spritework and basically just try to make them the same but not so blocky. Modern digital displays and all that.

Gonna drop a hot take here: I don’t really care in this case.

Gonna be honest, this joke sucks and the people making the same joke in the comments suck. At first maybe I thought it was some kind of weird (I hate working at Gawker I’m gonna show them that I’m sick of their stipulations) but then you just start pointing out things that aren’t business related. It’s not funnier or…

I’d be worried if this was someone like Bethesda or CD Projekt red. Platinum has been nonstop churning out games consistently of good quality for a decade (a few lousy licensed ones notwithstanding). Especially given that Bayonetta is a pretty known quantity, I’m not worried. I imagine it was just revealed too early.

I think the closest analogue to what you’re talking about would be in film where certain props and backgrounds get re-used from time to time.

You’re making this post on a website that made its bones in the 2000s posting “top 10 hottest videogame cosplay” articles

the game starts with your character doing psychedelics for the first time and then she spends the rest of the game talking about it

Not to generalize, but I’ve noticed RE has a pretty sizable female/lgbt base and lesbians love Wesker. It’s a more inclusive group than most gaming related stuff. I suspect a lot of the hardcore fans are probably pretty on board with this. I mean of course there will be the pissed people too, as there always is, but I…

if you say so

Yakuza, imo, is only just getting to the audience that it should have had all along. It always should have been a hit with the core gamer crowed, that was SEGA’s fault on not having faith in it. Like I said though, I think that this game could be a hit with not only core-gamers but also the more average dudebro…

sims and also it’s cottage-core. I guess I should probably say goodbye to my girlfriend before it comes out and she disappears for good.

yeah, I love that we’re getting english dubs in the Yakuza games again. That said, (and I say this in the NICEST way possible) Y7 embraced the JRPG roots of Yakuza and went fully turn based. I think it’s going to limit the appeal. It’s great for somebody like me, ex weeb, and avid jrpg guy. Unfortunately, I do think…

Well, I’ve been slowly making my way through the games since the first on ps2 in 2010, and the original 2 was my favourite story. Very excited to hear that Kiwami 2 is still good!

a part of me wonders if this is STILL fallout from the original Yakuza’s failure in the west. They had a big marketing push and an all-star cast for the dub. The english writing is... definitely a product of its time. Sales didn’t meet SEGA’s expectations and critics wanted it to be GTA. The stereotype is that…

I really feel for the Yakuza team here. Yakuza has recently become huge and I believe it has the potential to be a fully global mainistream AAA franchise - maybe not GTA level, but on the same level as an Assassin’s Creed. It’s hard not to chase that kind of success, especially seeing as you can count the big AAA…

I like eva and I like getting drunk, but I gotta say, Misato isn’t a great spokesperson for your brand. It’d be like if a whiskey ad used Don Draper. She usually drinks alone, at home, and to run away from her problems, she’s an awful parental figure to Shinji. She’s basically the prototypical alcoholic. Hell, even…

he chose VF as his rival because he knew he’d never be able to compete with Battle Arena Toshinden

I was ready to love the wii u. I’d spent like 10 years loving my DS and then my 3DS. I thought the idea of a home console DS was a fantastic idea. It just... didn’t work out. There were very few games for it at launch and then nobody seemed to care to make any later on. I have very fond memories of playing Mario 3D…

If anybody likes this kind of “walking around and talking to people” game and hasn’t played Tell Me Why, I think you’ll really enjoy it. In my case, it kinda flew under my radar for whatever reason. I didn’t really like Life is Strange 2, and Tell Me Why came out alongside a lot of high profile games. I finally played…
