3/3/20

[calfzilla]

Surprise release date at the end of E3: PS5 drops 3/19/20, FFVII will be release title for PS5 only.

[GAS KING]

Free BL2 DLC dropped yesterday. Its about 2hrs long and pretty good (more of the same).

[MechaGodzilla]

New star wars game looks dumb and bad

[MrNovember]

Not sure how I'm going to get anything productive done in the fall/winter; Cyberpunk, Doom Eternal, Death Stranding, Last of Us 2 (maybe?), Outer Worlds. So many good games coming

Shit, I forgot Borderlands 3! Seriously, BL3, Doom, and Death Stranding all coming out within about a month; I'm going to have to take some time off work.

Looks terrible but I have so much nostalgia for the first I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little bit tempted.

[Achtane]

I think it's gonna be wack. It might be better to leave your nostalgia in the time capsule of ps1 ff7 than to watch it get wrecked. Again

[MechaGodzilla]

nah man even if it's just ff13 (a pretty, cyber as HECK jrpg) but with decent writing and characters then it's gonna own hard

This is definitely the plan.

Ehh, I don't expect the same thing. It will just be interesting exploring the world more than anything else.

God damn it.

And maaaan, the redux’d soundtrack is gonna kill. So many absolute belters in there. Bombing run, cosmo canyon, the Dave Brubeck-esque boss theme, under the pizza...

I don't think this is real. I can't find any reference to it and the dates above don't match up.

Or

I'm just being thick and am missing the joke

Add in Ibara with some black labels and that be a rockin' package.

At least a conversion of batrider? Anything?

I don't know where you all get the time for video games. Since I beat my friend at smash I haven't played any haha.

[Achtane]

Seems like I need a Switch.
I like me some shmups as long as they're not super hard

One thing I feel a little sad about is that I'll never again experience that feeling of leaving Midgar or Balamb Garden and discovering how fucking big the world is. WoW was like that too, before Dungeon Finder and voice chat. I also miss typing everything and reading/being a part of general conversations in games instead of being called gay by a 12-year-old via microphone.

I miss server browsers and returning to the same privately-owned Battlefield 1942 server night after night to hang with the same people, that sense of community.
