Shines are suns are stars, though. I'd have loved a true remake of SM64 with modern day graphics and controls. Wod have bought that instantly. This, though, is not for me. I've played and still own all the games and didn't enjoy Sunshine that much. And they just updated the resolution? That's a tad lazy. Are they 60 fps? Have they updated the textures at least?

Ugh, my running has really suffered from not running for a longer period. Did a 4.33 km run yesterday in 18:41 - a pace of 4:20 - on a route I usually make in 17:30-ish. This decline is a combination of both 5 weeks of less exercise due to vacation and generally not having the energy for it (illness, mental stress due to baby-problems) and pain in my foot (below and in the ankle). Also gained 0.8 kg in the same period. I think my vacation can take credit for that, though.

Yeah, Gods & Monsters is going to be interesting to see again. I'm not hooked on the new name but hopefully I like what I see of the game.

Well, at least I get the chance to catch up with some of the older indie games that I missed for the rest of the year.

Pre-orders can now be cancelled up to a week before release. Account Information -> Your Pre-Orders -> Cancel Pre-Order.

The first couple of seasons of The Flash are great and it really is one of the best DC series out there. And the first couple of seasons of Arrow are really good as well. But be warned, the quality drops a lot as they progress. Unfortunately, CW thinks that they need 23 episodes for each season which means a lot of filler content that doesn't progress the story. If they just boiled it down to 10 episodes per season, it would be a lot better. Oh well, enjoy it!

Very spot on to my own view on the movie. I didn't care for the characters, and yeah, the mechanics were not explained very well. It was postulated as a movie that would require you to really think but I think it was fairly straightforward.

Shy Guy? If so, yeah, that's quite understandable. There should be some strategies to get through it, though.

First gameplay from the recently announced remake of Wonder Boy IV, Wonder Boy: Asha in Monster World: Looks really rough and requires a significant amount of polish to look decent. Yikes.

I can also recommend 10 burpees on the minute for 30 minutes. That was draining! Or going down from 20 with at most 1 minute rest between sets. So do 20 burpees, take a small break, do 19, break, 18, break,... Also something that leaves you tired!

Ah, so you did x burpees on minute 1, then x+1 on minute 2 and so on? Sure way to die, yeah. As a movement, I love burpees. They are so effective and use every muscle in the body as well as builds cardio. But they sure are hard.

Mega evolutions are live! But they killed it. Completely. Raid about 5 times to Mega-evolve 1 Pokémon for a duration of 4 hours - want more? Raid more! But the raids require at least 5-6 people to complete. They should have made it free to Mega-evolve after collecting the initial 200 Mega energy at least and then have some cooldown period on it instead. I really hope I don't have to bother about Megas in GBL, though. That would be a pain in the ass. Last season I got to rank 8 just before it stopped, as I'm doing quite well in Master League Premier Cup.

How many did you manage?

It does look good, yeah. I've never played any of the games (never owned a PS-console so that's why). Spellbreak looks good and is a great concept but I don't do MOBA.

I know. But it's out now. That's new.

The Last Campfire out now: Looks quite good!

So it's a monthly show? Then I can accept the lacklustre content

I'm playing Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice on Switch at the moment. A little over halfway in and well, I'm sorry to say that the game is rather boring to play, isn't it? The combat is repetitive - dodge/slam X or Y, dodge/parry, slam X or Y - and the puzzles are purely environmental, meaning that you only have to look for stuff in the surroundings to open a door, and the game even tells you when your near (at least the runes). Then they tried to make this more stressing by adding a monster that chases you but the thin is - you can't really look around much faster? So I just ended up circling the area again and again until I finally found the runes. Yeah, not fun. I'm debating with myself whether to finish this or not. It's a short game but I can only handle playing it in small bursts of 30-60 minutes and I keep thinking about wanting it to end. It's a shame, the game is visually really good looking and the audio is excellent but I'm just not really feeling it. I have Metro 2033: Redux sitting there, waiting for me, and I feel that it pulls harder than Hellblade at the moment.

Really great trailer, would totally watch that as a movie. It seems to be either inspired by or set in the Injustice universe which is cool, it's going to be exciting following this game, though it's still far into the future.

DC Fandome, a DC event, takes place this weekend.

I liked the tone of The Batman. Pattinson seems like a more emo like Batman but it's also supposed to be like Year One where he hasn't quite settled with the role yet. Not quite sure that Znyder's cut can actually save JL. But will probably end up watching it.

Looks alright to me and I think they will make it look better in the final version of the movie (if that isn't done yet, at least). ALso, good trailer.

Must not see it. Must resist! Got my tickets booked for next Sunday evening. Excuted to finally go to the cinema again and very much looking forward to seeing the movie.

Watched the first three episodes of High Score today on a sickness leave (just feeling under the weather and such) and I'm actually enjoying it. Given the name, I had expected it to be about arcade games and the people competing there but it's much more a complete history of video games. Episode 2 is almost only about Nintendo, quite interesting to watch. The third episode is a bit too narrow, I found, as it focuses solely on RPGs and early adventure games that I don't know about but it also references newer games that I have more knowledge of and have actually played.

It'll bee interesting if they can get Bale as well.
