I guess they figure 3-5 are modern enough that they don’t need remasters. Kiwami 1 was based off the 0 engine, which is an updated version of the one used in 3-5. So all they need to do is update some textures (probably by reusing some from 0 and Kiwami 1) and maybe some character models and they’ll look about as good…

Once there was an explosion...

What about Yakuza 6?

I’d argue that Blade Runner is not an example of this because the director’s cut was as it was originally intended by its creator.

You also said “constant tweaking has resulted in zero masterpieces in any medium.” Key word being “any medium.” Video games often benefit from post-release tweaking, and you can find similar examples in other mediums like film. Blade Runner is probably the most obvious example; the initial release was okay, but it…

They plan to patch out most of the issues by the time you’d go away, but keep that in mind in case you…

It was briefly shown off during Xbox’s indie showcase, so it’s at least being released there.

Personally, I really like E3. Sure, companies could just announce stuff whenever they felt like it, but I find the anticipation of knowing that things will be announced but not knowing what they are (or seeing more info on games I’m already excited for) can be a lot of fun, provided the conferences aren’t a wet fart…

Oh, no. He lost his job on a $200+ million blockbuster. Now he has to settle for another $200+ million blockbuster. What a travesty.

No he’s not. He’s got a guaranteed gig coming up with JW3, one that will almost certainly get him out of director jail. He’ll be fine as long as he doesn’t fuck up again.

Yes. It’s about a young woman who’s locked in an insane asylum and about to be lobotomized retreating into a fantasy that’s also so terrible that she retreats into another fantasy within her other fantasy.
