    never really cared for The First Descendant, but now that they're collabing with Bayonetta of all things, they now have my full attention, also its just neat to see Bayonetta rendered on an actual modern console

    Play it.

    Warning, it is made by Nexon so expect a grindy game where the trick on how they get you is pay-4-convenience. However, it's not a gacha and everything within the game can be earned without spending a single dollar (except collaborations for whatever reason). I'm roughly 600+ hours in the game so ask anything.

    Also another warning (which is how the trailer gets you). Might actually be a skin than character again, like how people got jebaited into thinking 2B or A2 was playable.

    That's probably Viessa or Gley rocking the Bayonetta skin, but this will be the first time Bayonetta's attire can actually be editable in different colors.

    It didn't even occur to me that this could just be a skin, oh well, the game's free anyway, not like I lose anything by checking it out

    between Duet Night Abyss and Anata, I am %100 down with games abandoning their initial gacha monetization midway through development, granted said games are still F2P live services with variable amounts of grinding, but at least I wont have to gamble

    the bar for videogame monetization is so low :/

    dam, ppl have been really been hating on DBZ Sparking Zero lately, and I don't even think it's a bad game, I just think it's a game that came out 15 years too late;

    I would've been happy if it was the original Budokai series with DB Super content. However, majority of the fans prefer the Tenkaichi formula which started the arena fighters to begin with, not Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm series.

    I was actually having a conversation about someone with it. DBZ Budokai & Tenkaichi series was like the pillars of "After-school and visit friends house" moment during the PS2 days including GTA San Andreas, but trying to re-create that was almost like a lost art since said users of the past are too outgrown now to even recreate that nostalgic presence.

    This is perfect actually so I'll use myself here. Ex: I really enjoyed Chrono Trigger as a kid. Hearing the thought of a HD remaster/Octo-treatment of such a game sounds like a bliss dream.

    Now say it does happen... i'm not entirely sure if it'll ignite that same fire of young boy me vs 30 year old me now because clarity is so much different back then without immersion getting ruined.

    Honkai Nexus Anima be like "come use our expansive character creator and make an avatar that represents YOU!" meanwhile you go to pick skin tones and the only 3 options available are white, white, and lightly tanned white, bruh...

    granted it is a beta and things sre subject to change, hell they don't even let you pick your gender in the beta, but I wouldn't put it past hoyoverse to look at its current skin tone options and say "fuck it, that'll do"

    Adult Sothis at the end certainly has me interested since Three houses is basically the only Fire Emblem game I like lol but I've got no money for Switch 2 yet.

    I also liked Three houses, but yeah I'm not enough of FE faithful to buy a console just for the new game, the Switch 2 is gonna have bring ALOT more heat before I can even consider a purchase

    Spike Chunsoft in 2016: We are done with Danganronpa, no more new entries!

    Spike Chunsoft in 2026: What if we re-released Danganronpa 2 for a second time, but we overhauled the graphics and added a new campaign, that's still not a new entry so we haven't broken our word technically!

    I mean i like Danganronpa as much as the next guy, but this is getting tiresome :/

    tru tru, i guess that does make DR2 the easier game to mine for extra content, Moreso than 1 and 3, but truly i'd just prefer if DR was just left alone at this point and we got more DR adjacent games that take inspiration from DR and do their own thing, stuff like Rain Code and World's End Club (not developed by Spike Chunsoft but directed by the original DR devs)
    Camel with 2 thumbs
    Camel with 2 thumbs
    but that's not realistic, DR is just too lucrative to leave alone so we'll probably get stuff like this every couple of years, which is fine, as long as they don't get too desperate and make a DR4, because with the way DR3 ended, how can you go back and make a "buissness as usual" sequel? it would completely undermine the entirety of DR3, and even DR 1 & 2 to an extent
    Camel with 2 thumbs
    Camel with 2 thumbs
    on the flipside I guess it's possible to make a DR4 that acknowledges the ending of DR3, but how would that even work? I have no clue, and probably no one at Spike knows either hence they've been happy with all these rereleases, remakes, and w/e the hell ultimate summer camp was

    Nintendo really out here trying to win the biggest asshole in game development award huh, putting a patent on the mechanic of summoning monsters to fight for you? it's not just Palword at this point that's gonna be affected, ALOT of games are going to be screwed by this

    You know speaking of Nintendo being scummy. I'm surprised no one is talking about the fact that they are basically reselling Galaxy 1 lol. Galaxy 1 was already in 3D all stars that released years ago ; But now if people wanna play Galaxy 2, they gotta rebuy Galaxy 1 as part of the bundle. Its just extra padding so they have an excuse to charge $60-70 for this. Its pretty messed up.

    EDIT: Just read online. Seems you can buy em separately digitally. I guess that's not too bad. Still scummy that they're charging $70 for physical tho.

    dam, i wasn't even aware of that was going on with galaxy, I was probably too busy malding over the $80 kirby game at the time, and I like kirby, but 80$ for a port from 2022 that's barely an upgrade with 3 extra hours of content? absolutely not

    now that I have a working 360 I plan on doing a vanilla Ninja Gaiden 3 playthrough, mainly to see if 1, the game is as bad as I remember or was I just blinded by my disdain towards Hayashi, and 2, to see if I can beat it's Master Ninja mode w/o abusing the shit out of the SoB

    Virtua Fighter 5/FS/US character usage statistics always make me chuckle, top 3 is mostly Jacky, Akira, Sarah, dead last is always Taka, and everyone else is stuck between 2-6% usage

    What about Pai? 4th? That would match exactly with the VF guests in DOA then, lol.

    I've mained Sarah until now (except for the very first few days I ever played VF4, when I focused on Lion) but I've been thinking of switching to Vanessa.
    Camel with 2 thumbs
    Camel with 2 thumbs
    Vanessa is so much fun, whether or not she's good i couldn't tell ya

    And now that I'm on my mid 2000's retro arc, I been feelin' the need for some Vf4:evo

    But yeah, despite Pai being one of the more recognizable VF characters, her popularity fluctuates greatly, she's either in the middle of the pack in terms of usage or is in 4th place trailing behind Jacky, Akira, and Sarah

    Although in the latest poll taken this year, Pai managed to crack the bottom of top 3, overtaking Jacky, what changed? Who knows,

    weirdest DOA take i've heard in a while, but I kinda lowkey agree?

    @inochinagi Not to get bogged down with the science of the panty shot (my goodness what am I saying) but imo if a character moves in such a way that their underwear gets exposed, that's a panty shot, camera zoom or not, however there are layers to it, DOA has the natural panty shot, i.e underwear getting exposed 'cause that's just how the clothing physics would work in that scenario
    Camel with 2 thumbs
    Camel with 2 thumbs
    and then there's the cringe anime panty shot that we've all seen a million times in anime, in which there's some contrivance that leads to a skirt lift, the character gets embarrassed, the camera zooms in and pans up slowly to show off the underwear in excruciating detail, y'know, the type of thing can make even the most open minded anime fan roll their eyes
    Camel with 2 thumbs
    Camel with 2 thumbs
    although I guess it's not always cringe, like im not gonna watch Agent Aika and be like "ew, wth is this perversion" like the whole point of that show is fanservice + action girls, but there are instances where it can come off as egregious, thankfully that's not the case with DOA, it just fits in so naturally I assume most DOA players barely register it mentally

    TBH. If you put NG4, the new Onimusha, and Sushi Ghosts: Gohtee side by side; its like comparing menu items from Wendys, Burger King, and Mcdonalds. Sure they taste different but at the end of the day they are just burgers. X.x

    any here ever watch an anime called Voltage Fighter Gowcaizer? it's not great but it was directed by Masami Obari, same guy who directed/designed the Fatal Fury film trilogy, so the whole time you're watching it feels like your seeing an anime take place in an alternate universe South Town lol

    I watched it back in June. Outside of the incest (if you know, you know), it was an interesting series.
    Camel with 2 thumbs
    Camel with 2 thumbs
    true, there was some truly out of left field incest going on, it's one thing when it was happening on the bad guys side with the sibling student council members (but it did lead to a very interesting transformation, looked like a proto darling and the fraxxx type design) but we get into Kyosuke and his sis and....it's not explicit, but signs point to his love for his sis being more than just brotherly :/

    I re-watched it recently... as much as I hate to admit, it's worse than I remember it.

    Virus Buster Serge and Gravion, not so much. (We don't talk about Angel Blade...)

    seriously considering buying a 360 in the near future, 1 because it's one of the few consoles that has exclusives that I still care to play, 2 it backwards compatible with OG Xbox which also has exclusives I still care to play

    crazy to think we're reaching the end of this console generation, feels like the PS5 and Series X just came out not too long ago, or maybe my ass is just getting old lol

    Well, the PS5 for like the first two years was sold mostly by scalpers since there was a shortage of iirc chips due to various reasons so a limited amount of copies were made early on (took a long time for me to see one in any electronics-oriented shop/market where I live) since they bought it up and sold it mostly for double the original price (at least in my country).

    Even after that, its price wasn't exactly cheap, most people were just fine with their completely functional PS4's but time doesn't lie, it has been 5 years since the release of PS5, or will be around November of this year, as for eckbock, even though from a performance standpoint their current gen consoles are great, even amazing, this generation for them pretty much came and went.
