You wait 10 or 15 years for an emulator to come out.

If all you want is to follow the story, Umbrella Chronicles and Dark Side Chronicles basically recap 1-6, I think, as lightgun railshooters (they were originally released on the Wii).

I had no idea that the fucking Saudis own SNK. I guess it’s a good thing that there’s still no Metal Slug 8, because that’s the only thing I would have wanted from them anyway.

Haven’t the slop companies not even actually bought anything yet? My understanding is that no money’s actually changed hands, and that all of this is happening because they pinky promised to buy components in the future with money they don’t even have right now. Which, yes, is basically how buying on credit works, but for everyone else that usually first requires having a reputation for being able to actually pay eventually, rather than the bubble imploding and all these companies going under before the order is even fulfilled.

When I was ~7, I got a Super NES bundle that included both Super Mario World and Super Mario Kart, as well as a second controller. Absolutely worth it.

That’s just how the Boss rolls. Can you really expect anything less from the woman who gave birth to Revolver Ocelot in the middle of a battlefield and then immediately jumped right back into the fight?

Snake-shaped gun that folds up? That’s Stargate SG-1. Neat.

If ownership is what you’re worried about, why wouldn’t you already have the installers downloaded and backed up?

Given that Elon Musk is supposed to be in charge of like 6 different companies at once and still manages to find the time to shitpost on Twitter all day, a CEO’s time can’t be that busy.

reminiscent of F-Zero

Pretty sure that’s because the guy is literally recycling assets from F-Zero GX. 🤣

At least they finally showed more environments than “flat desert junkyard”, and some jumps.

First that MMO, now this? Couldn’t you have done this slop after Horizon 3?

Ghost Trick was originally a DS game, so if you don’t care about HD artwork tracking down the DS version is an option.

That skill that lets you warp onto a beast and instantly tame it was so fucking amazing.

I was going to go for ZX3, but an Elf Wars game is an even better suggestion, which is why Capcom will never do it.

The rates are a lie…

Neat. Always happy to see more stuff on GOG, even if it ends up just being a game that I still won’t buy on yet another platform.

Draft dodger say what?

Also, that flag would only have been valid for a week in 1889.

Contextually, “late” doesn’t really work as “not on time”, though? But yeah, the article confirms that Itagaki is dead.

If you’d like to don your eyepatch and tricorn, a dev build (ie Denuvo-less) of v1.0.6 got leaked last November.

Fine print at the bottom says it’s footage from Switch 2 version, which there’d be no need to specify if it was an exclusive.

Why would they fire themselves when they’ve already investigated themselves and found that they did nothing wrong?

Calling 3 a soulslike is kinda stretching it, I think. I would say rather that 3 does exploration and upgrades similarly to 1 but has combat that’s more similar to 2. I do think they’re definitely worth getting though.

Damn, really? That sucks, thanks for the heads up.

2&3 are both “here’s what the others were doing while War was chained up for a hundred years”. Their stories are set in motion because of the premature apocalypse, and will probably have implications for humanity further in the future, but there’s no impact on War directly, aside from 3 implying

, and I don’t expect any plot points from 2&3 to come back up during 4.

As for Genesis, the main thing you should keep in mind is that it isn’t a mainline game. It’s more an isometric twin stick shooter/hack’n’slash, and the gameplay isn’t as deep as with the main games. But it’s got co-op, if you have someone to play with, and it does provide some characterization for Strife as well as showing an example of the sorts of missions the Horsemen took for the Charred Council.

For anyone having issues with the site, the giveaway code is freedomtobuygames which you might have better luck redeeming via Galaxy.

I personally enjoyed Genesis, but it wasn’t a solo Strife game. You play as both Strife and War.

I guess breaking the seventh seal also revived Fury’s horse. But also, no solo game for Strife? Sadface.

I actually played this long before I ever played actual Ninja Gaiden. At the time, I was just a wee laddie, and I remember enjoying it back then, but I’ve never had the courage to go back and replay it to see if it actually holds up.

#3 is entirely why I’m skipping the Switch 2, when I’ve previously had every Nintendo console since the SNES.

Back in Control, all the stoplight did was teleport you back to the entrance if you moved on red. That’s way too easy for co-op though, so I’m sure Remedy changed it.

Gotta milk the cash cow.

Is that supposed to be Shart? Wow, they did her dirty, holy shit.

Hey, no worries, man. That’s just how it goes sometimes. Appreciate the generosity anyway!

Ooh, AER Memories of Old, please, and thanks. That’s been on my wishlist for awhile.

Well, this has no online component, so hopefully it won’t end up like Battlefront Classic.

That’s a failure to download the installers to begin with, not them being taken away from you after the fact.

Good thing I have the GOG offline installer already downloaded.

Maybe not this specific statement, but I think it certainly highlights that everything about the game in general has been kind of a mess.

Are they actually bounty hunters? The trailer made it seem like they were gladiators competing in a blood sport league.
