Yep. She's understandably traumatised after her first kill but then literally seconds later it's all like "let the slaughter commence!" as you mow downs hundreds of baddies like it was nothing. Such tonal whiplash.

Damn, we had it real hard in the UK then. Everyone had a Mega Drive here. I had only ever known one person to have a SNES and I had never even seen a NES until well into the PS2 era. Gameboys were the only Nintendo system people seemed to have here.

Whilst I essentially agree with you, MGSD exists because there is an ever growing group of people who would look at the original and go "eww, ancient ass PS2 game. Not playing that".
Delta isn't for us existing fans, it's for the general audience of today that value shiny graphics over all else.

It's on the Switch Mega Drive classics if you have Switch Online Expansion.

I knew nothing about Chadley in Rebirth as I didn't finish Remake on hard. They just casually drop that he's an android and I'm like "wha the fuck?". Then nothing more on it. Though I get a horrible feeling his big library will be in part 3 so you need to finish his quests in Rebirth 😭

Love the Saturn version, the special stages are ace.

Collectors edition is arriving tomorrow and I by sheer coincidence have 7 days off work. So hyped.

Never been a fan of BotW myself. It's a well made game with some great design philosophy however I just found it so damn boring to actually play.
TotK though, thoroughly enjoyed it. For me it's the better game.

Born during the NES window so there from the start I guess! Though honestly we were always a Sega family. If many of the heavy hitter RPG's on the SNES had PAL releases it may have been different!

He always reminded me of Fido Dido.

That's a bit poo, though good to know I can still access them without having to buy digital.

It's in the small print at the bottom. All of the bonuses shown can be unlocked through normal gameplay. This just grants instant access.

I used a Saturn pad to play the beta. Worked a joy for me!

My theme!

As with Remake, all the stuff lifted direct from the original game was awesome however most if not all of the new stuff was absolutely awful. Never played a game with so much padding and bloat before.

And then don't get me started on how you go back into Sector 7 and the only difference is there's a bit more rubble. Like how is any of it still standing? It would've been pancaked!
I honestly question so much of the decisions made with FFVII Remake. Even Rebirth too.
