I think it’s easy to forget just how wild and bonkers of a swing Strikers and its sequel we’re, especially given the context of their releases. Even though most of the game industry went through a dark / angsty / edgy phase, very little of that translated into Nintendo’s games at the time. So seeing one of the Mario…

I was eager to try the game but not willing to deal with the last gen versions (Digital Foundry did not have glowing things to say about my base PS4 or One S), but I was also nervous after hearing everything about the PC version. I decided to give PC a shot though, and have been pleasantly surprised at how good…

I can’t believe (...well actually I can) that GameStop would hire Reggie and then just ignore him. The dude’s a legend, and if nothing else being a public face for the company could have created some much needed good will.

This is shaping up to be some PS2-era nonsense and I am HERE for it.

I hope that's true. Still baffling that the last time those classics were ported to a current system was...the DS and PS3?

Hopefully true. Also wild that fixing d-pad controls on a 25 year old SNES game was necessary...

This also would’ve been an ideal time to port this classic to Switch and make the easiest profit in the world, but then again, those FF Pixel Remasters are in the same boat. COME ON GUYS.

This makes me extra bummed that FFXIV is currently being touted as PS exclusive, as it’s the only next gen game I’m really looking forward to at the moment. I enjoy using my One S so much more than my PS4, so whenever I do upgrade I’d really prefer to go with Xbox for Game Pass and features like these (plus I hate how…

Judging by XVI's image at the top of the article, I’m betting one of the trailers uses a soft indie cover of Crawling by Linkin Park.

Between this and Stranger of Paradise, Square seems to be going through a strange period where they’re nostalgic for early 00s emo-dark design. It's...certainly a choice.

Yeah, AMC is a shitty company, but also...the movie's almost three goddamn hours long. It probably does make sense to charge more for a movie that's nearly as long as two.

At first I was bummed but how many in the trailers were just in Arceus, but then I realized that game is effectively landlocked from Home and in that way kinda doesn't count...

Same here. I tried turning off the bloom effect which helped a little, but not nearly enough. It feels like the sprites should be more detailed, like FF Tactics or Breath of Fire IV level, not RPG Maker level.

I mean, seems simple to also hope to get a teaser for the next mainline games...Sword and Shield released what, 2.5 or 3 years ago? Seems like it's about time, especially with Arceus and BDSP released.

A major JRPG announced only six months prior to release? Not teased endlessly for years? Refreshing.

SE Execs: “We’re making games based on the Avengers and GotG, all of whom were included in a series of the most profitable and popular films of all time! So by extension these games will be some of the most profitable and popular of all time, regardless of actual quality or effort! And by god, load that bad boy up…

I also want VI in that style the most, but I just had another thought...OG blocky FFVII in HD-2D. Instead of prerendered backgrounds you get more depth and detail, then a battle rolls around and bam...slightly more detailed character models.

I wonder if this is part of some contractual agreement with Nintendo from when Sora joined Smash, otherwise I can’t understand why they’d bother releasing these. Even still, I wish they'd have just taken the time to properly port the first collection (which I assume is the most popular), although as ajdragoon said…

It’s wild that this occurred a few days after what largely seemed to be a love letter Direct to many retro fans...at least Square Enix is learning how to properly manage their back catalog.

The only reason I finished HZD was because I was recently laid off at the beginning of a global pandemic and literally had nothing better to do, so I definitely can't imagine playing a very similar but longer sequel right now. I like Aloy enough as a main character although she’s a little one-note, and the inciting…
