Happenstance

Very possible yeah. My uncle works at SEGA so I know it totally releasing next year.

It’s Sonic’s 30th anniversary next year so I wonder if we’ll get some game announcements this E3. I could see sequels to Mania and Generations.

I should check if I still own Inazuma Eleven. I had these big plans to buy and play all of them but never got past an hour in of the first game.

I'm just sad that this is launching about as far away from winter as it can. Some of my best memories from the original game were importing it from Australia and only having a couple of days of Autumn before the snow came in.

Hopefully they are far enough along to talk about it, even if just to push sales of part 1 but I think given that they already have a lot of the important assets built for it we won't have as long to wait in comparison to part 1. Depends I guess if the team went straight into working on 2 after finishing 1.

I wonder if Square Enix will talk about part 2 of FFVII at all

Here we got then. 0, 1, Kiwami 1, 2, Kiwami 2, 3, 4, Japanese version of 5, new box for 5, remastered collection of 3, 4 & 5, 6 and Dead Souls.

Ah you messed up there by saying played instead of completed

Might have to post a photo of my Yakuza collection tomorrow to put yours to shame

Oh and I don't know if you guys have seen but the regular boxed edition is also available now.

Just had my copy of the limited edition dispatched. I still haven't completed Kiwami 2 yet though so I really need to get back to that. Might put it on tonight.

That's the stuff I'd love to see. While the Mega Drive was my era, we get a lot of it from various places so I would like to be able to play some of the less accessible games from those two consoles.

You might be the only one then, it’s generally thought of as one of the worst episodes in all of Trek 😆 One thing I will say is that the first 3 episodes of Picard are basically the pilot so it might be worth watching the 3rd and then letting some build up.

Project A Parts I & II Been in a Jackie Chan mood again lately so as a load of his older movies have been getting re-releases on blu ray thanks to Eureka Classics and 88 Films I’ve been able to start watching more of them. The Project A films were pretty great with Jackie’s usual amazing fights, stunt work and comedy along with some pirates thrown in this time. I’m looking forward to working my way through more of his films. Planning on getting Drunken Master next while I wait for more of the Police Story series to get released.

I’d meant to go see Parasite yesterday with Goafer after the retro video game market we went to but ended up remembering too late after lunch and we missed the showing. Watched Friday the 13th Parts 3 & 4 instead which I’m sure was just as good 😆

Just rewatching the end of Generations. I’m sure we’ve all said it a thousand times but god dammit Kirk’s death is so crappy. For a character so important to the history of science fiction, television and cinema he deserved so much more. Can you image if they had Picard emerge from the Nexus on the planet and up in space, Kirk’s Enterprise (let’s say refit) emerged triumphantly from the ribbon to take on the space bound threat and sacrifice itself one last time with Kirk on the bridge (not a bridge).

Nah unfortunately not this time. I didn’t have the money to spare for anything expensive and found no cheap deals. I was tempted by a big boxed copy of Red Alert on PC but it would have just gone in a cupboard somewhere. The Birmingham one is coming up in a few months so I’ll probably put some money aside for it and finally get Batman & Robin.

Bad news guys. @Goafer and I went to the retro gaming market today but no Shining Force III.

There's shops and town upgrades that would happen for everyone though, right. And villagers can leave depending on what you do. So you could log off and come back, and someone else would have played/advanced your game save, pretty much. I get wanting your own island but to be fair to Nintendo, this was always how they designed AC. It was supposed to be this shared world where things could change. It was their version of an MMO.

We already basically had that with Fast 5, Furious 6 (renamed but still kept it some places) and Furious 7.

So, has everyone decided which romance option they are going for yet?

I'm surprised you didn't list "Move Along Home" as one of your favourite episodes

Looks like Fast & Furious 10 is being broken into two parts https://uproxx.com/movies/vin-diesel-fast-and-furious-10-two-parts/

I don’t think I’ll watch a direct if Nintendo do an AC one anyway. Always feels like they give away way too much information with those things anyway.
