Apparently Wanted: Dead sucks according to IGN

https://www.ign.com/articles/wanted-dead-review

I still want it... but not at the launch price. Wishlisting until it drops some.

I support that kind of marketing strategy if you're dealing with a stinker.

Really lean into it and go to town on a bunch of snowflake streamers.

you're guaranteed to get the, "I'm buying TWO copies of Hogwarts Legacy" distinguished mentally-challenged fellows to promote the hell out of your garbage game then...

I got Wanted: Dead on Steam (because of the return policy!) and just played it for an hour. I liked what I played enough to keep it. The game seems pretty fun to me and as promised, reminds of something from the PS3/360 era. It's jank and the story is dumb, but I've enjoyed the firefights and running around slashing up enemies. On normal it doesn't feel as hard as Ninja Gaiden did to me, but you can still die in 2-3 hits if a blade-wielding enemy attacks and you don't counter in time. They will also swarm you given the chance.

I don't mind restarting a section after dying (they do give you two chances plus you have health packs), but the game not saving upgrades you do, if you die, is pretty dumb.

Seems a 4K remaster of the old ass Pharaoh game is getting released today. Good year for gaming so far. I can just replay old shit. Dead Space, Metroid Prime: Remaster and now this Pharaoh game. The System Shock remake is supposed to be out this year.

Give me a remastered Thief 1 and 2 with raytracing please.

I also got Wanted Dead and played through the first mission.

Seems pretty fun. Could use some sort of lose lock on when going into melee though.

Got to looking up next gen Gundam games. Nature of the industry is every game is some multiplayer service game or mash up. No grounded one year war types.

In the search I learned people revisited Gundam Target in Sight/Crossfire. The PS3 launch game that ran at 15 fps. Everybody said it was trash. Could be an any port in the storm deal, but now people are saying it’s not bad? Most are emulating it to get past the frame rate hang up. Tempted to try it out.

"Alright now that the deal is done we're excited to bring Call of Duty to Nintendo for the 2024 holiday season"

"Fantastic, it'll be a great fit for the Switch OLED system!"

"Wait, what about the new platform?"

"You want to release it on Gameboy Classic?"

"No... we thought there was a Switch 2"

"We have nothing to announce regarding new hardware at this time, we have a legal agreement for full feature and content parity

"But it's never going to run on the original Switch, can't you just release new hardware"

I am still hyped for this game, but the teaser demo thing they released a few months back on Steam for cheap was very rough. It is called El Paso, Nightmare.

Well, Sony Japan doesn't really exist anymore.
Most companies like SEGA would be a significant downgrade for Mikami.

So what's left is back to Capcom or Nintendo, Square Enix, Bandai Namco.

Asimov is a hack. He could have resolved the whole Foundation series by just having Harry Seldon shotgun everyone to death.

Not sure where it came from, but I'd be pretty confident that it would run in English otherwise they wouldn't be selling it on Amazon.
