Especially odd given that Cyberpunk as a franchise has such a stable of original music at its disposal (that the show draws from frequently!), but the intro's catchy enough that I'm not mad at it.

The Yakuza 3 remake comes out in February. Wouldn't it make more sense to play that version?

Square doesn't own Tomb Raider anymore. They sold Crystal Dynamics and the IP to Embracer a few years back.

Honestly not sure whether to blame the awkward holiday timing, the staggered release schedule, the long wait between seasons, or just BlueSky in general as a platform - because I've seen the discourse happening elsewhere, just not here. Thought the episodes themselves were solid to great!

As someone who's been following it for a while now - I'm fully convinced that there is a new Half-Life that we will be playing sometime in 2026, and it would make sense to tie it to the hardware launch. I think anyone trying to specifically game out exactly when that gets announced? Hah, good luck.

I honestly hate that we finally get a direct sequel to Black Ops 2, and this is the packaging it comes in - especially after Black Ops 6's campaign was so solid!

It really felt like 343 finally nailed the look and feel of how a Halo game should play, then shackled it to a poorly-realized live-service foundation that was destined to die on the vine. Hoping that the leadership changes behind the scenes lead to a more cohesive creative vision moving forward.

And it works in a vacumn, but juxtaposed with the driving force of the first two acts (and the phenomenal character writing that Lune and Sciel receive otherwise), it just feels slightly hollow once you hit Act 3. More of the optional material should have been reworked into the actual story.

No one's having a full-bore existential crisis? No one's grappling with the fact that they've been tagging along with their universe's equivalent of a god for the entire adventure? It's just, "Okay, cool, let's tag along to Lumiere and let Maelle and Verso carry all the narrative weight."

I was telling a friend recently that Clair Obscur was my GOTY so far, but I preferred Death Stranding 2's final act, and it came down to how after the big end-of-act-2 reveal, the Expeditioners among the cast just cease functioning as people. Like, no one's having a breakdown about this?

Supergirl is next June, and Clayface is the following October, which feels like... the right vibe for each of those? I'm still getting used to this whole "feeling optimistic for the future of DC in film" thing, it's going to take me a bit to adjust.

Wait, so Druckmann quit the HBO adaptation, went back to Naughty Dog, and immediately released TLOU P2, but probably cut and structured the way the show SHOULD have been? Fascinated to see how this plays.

At least with (what I'm assuming is) the most recent one of those, you can choose from a variety of hairstyles - I was always very cautious about swapping to the original color before sharing Act 3 screenshots with my friends.

I was initially shaky on it, but the optional endgame content that opens up at the beginning of the act really deepens the new perspective you're given on the game's world - there's storytelling in those sections that I'm shocked wasn't considered essential to the golden path. Now I love it.

Konami confirmed in the YouTube description that the in-game version will feature "the staff credits and interactive elements from the original".

The core thought that keeps running through my brain is that it's like Sandfall created the FFVIIR series' equally brilliant inverse - FFVIIR took turn-based tactical decision-making and wove it into real-time action combat, and now Sandfall's done the same in the opposite direction.

I finished my 100% playthrough yesterday, yet I keep booting up that game and reloading a previous save just to fight the final super-boss again. They really found the perfect marriage between turn-based strategy and skill-based precision timing.

Do we have another source besides the FAQ, though? Because that's been the date for pre-order invitations from the Nintendo Store ever since the Direct - only external retailers were supposed to go live with pre-orders on April 9th.

This was always the date to pre-order from the Nintendo Store, specifically - that FAQ has always been there. This could be misinformation.

Yeah, inflation is something that materially affects people, but it can be hard to understand the various factors at play without a decent enough grasp of global economics.
These tariffs are the product of overt political decision-making - very easy to point to the source for anyone with eyes.

I was in the middle of work and my mom came in, out of the blue, and said: "They're saying on MSNBC that the new Nintendo system got delayed?" I was THROWN.

I saw Cyberpunk and Elden Ring, immediately went: "Oh. They're competing now", and assumed it'd be in the $399-$499 range. I don't think people are as outraged by the hardware prices as they are by the software prices, but the hardware's getting caught in the crossfire.

Okay, genuine question, as someone who would tout OOT as his favorite game of all time on any given day - has the rumor mill been abuzz about a remake recently? Because I've heard several of my favorite podcasters talking about this recently, but don't know where it started.
