So.. I don’t usually believe anything from 4chan of all places, but I’ve just seen this. What do you guys think? FFIX remake with an action combat system coming summer 2025. Allegedly. 🤔

Couldn’t be more excited to play Fantasian today! I loved it when it was exclusive to Apple devices so I am super happy it’s finally out on console. Thanks so much to Square Enix for providing me the code! #ad

I can't believe it's almost one week until Fantasian Neo Dimension comes out!!! Loved that game on Apple Arcade but it's going to be even better the second time around. Anyone else excited for this one?!

Game #29 of the year for me is complete. Dragon Quest HD-2D was a wonderful adventure from start to finish! While the credits may have rolled, I’ve still got more stuff to do so I’ll be jumping back in soon enough!

About 90% convinced I’m going to pick up a PS5 Pro in the next few weeks. Why? I need to see FF7 Rebirth in the best possible quality as I can 😎
