Gotta start fast they say

Honestly, if this game is anything like the first entry, it’s probably best to hold off on it until people set up a crazy amount of zip lines and other stuff. Haven’t watched any trailers tho so I’m assuming we’re still delivering da packages like in the first game

Sucks that I can’t play this on modern consoles because I skipped over PS3 when college/attempting to date (failed tho whadduppp)/sports/family/life got in the way. Would love a remaster or anything really so I can have my own opinion about it tbh

If I’m already going to buy it Day 1, do I even bother watching the ten minute trailer? Will it spoil a ton like Yakuza 8’s did about Kiryu? That trailer spoiler reveal was so brutal and kill any impact that reveal made in-game tbh. I have PTSD from it 😭😭

@Nalim that would be amazing but it doesn’t even have a physical disc nor steelbook for $230ish I believe. Plus, $230 is a lot 😭😭😭😭 I’ll buy a piggy bank and start saving today tho 😂😂😂

Dang, would’ve loved for this to be June 24th on my birthday. Guess I’ll settle for birthday week.

That’s it: I’m buying it and playing it solo with one controller in my hands and my wittle little toes manning the second. It’s much easier than me finding THEN making a friend. I did ask my dog if she’d play and she walked away

On the finale chapter of Pirate Yakuza so I’m going to do some ship battles before starting the last chapter. But damn, I have had an absolute blast with it. RGG had something here they could work into a stable side franchise like Judgment if they desired to. Majima always delivers. Always.

Wonder Woman could’ve been a really cool and fun game. But I didn’t have a lot of faith in it tbh. Sad for the people working hard on these games to be cut off. Feels like such a waste but businesses have to business I guess

Haven’t started yet but I will tonight. It’s my little treat to myself after a hip replacement (no, I’m not 80. I’m 79). Majima with his own game is going to be amazing no matter what

Thank the heavens I finished Ace Attorney in time. It was such a blast to play/read through.

@get2sammyb yeah I was definitely agreeing with that take. It just seems like a no brainer to let previous owners/players upgrade it for $10 and get something for it. Instead, I think a lot will just wait for it to hit PS+ or avoid it altogether which is a shame. I really enjoyed Days Gone and would’ve been pumped to replay it on the Pro tbh

Ehh, I probably would’ve done the $10 upgrade if they allowed the PS+ copies. But I’m not buying a secondhand copy (despite preferring physical) just to upgrade it to play a second time. It would’ve been cool but I’ll wait until it eventually hits PS+ Extra

More Lies of P is always a good thing. It’s a nice appetizer before the inevitable sequel 😎😎

The great fortune gold undies is long overdue. I’d proudly wear them everywhere

I guess I’ll just watch The Traitors USA because I missed an ep due to a major surgery. I was going to play some Apollo Justice and take it easy tonight.

Day 1 even though I can’t play it then; I just had a hip replacement so I won’t be around my system for a long while 😭😭 but I will always support RGG when they crreate great spin offs such as King Pirate Majimaaaaa

Leaks on a hentai site are normal, just not these kind of leaks 😈

Ngl I didn’t play any new releases this month. All I played was Apollo Justice, Stanley Parable, replay of Tales of Arise (still working through) and some random NCAA Football dynasty games

This is wild to me. Although I think the plot could be perfect for a movie, this seems like a big risk. My bet is they just wanted to purchase the rights very early before it potentially booms into a bigger money investment. Still, I’m down for this even if the game hasn’t been released.

Pretty underwhelming for me. I’ll claim all three of them, but I doubt I ever touch one of them. Oh well

Preordered the base version. I don’t really have any games that I like coming out besides Yakuza & maybe first Berzerker. So a no brainer for me. I hope it’s wicked 🔥🔥😎😎🔥🔥

They probably don’t want crazy fans going after the voice actresses even more. There’s always a few whackos that will take these shipping wars to a whole new level

@ShogunRok can people who were chosen for January’s mailbox submit again for February or are you guys trying to give others a chance? I have a fun, more broad topic I’d love to write about but don’t want to overstep. Thanks for giving us readers a chance to shine and great work everyone who got chosen 🤩🤩

Much love for including mine in the first newsletter 😎😎 It’s great to see a lot of readers here pumped for The Witcher 4!

The Stanley Parable and probably a replay of something else that I haven’t decided on yet (if I have time to after the NFL Conference Championships).

@MikeOrator the funny thing is it’s like “normally” 97% just the side content that’s goofy not the main story. The main stories tend to be pretty damn serious IMO. Going from deadly serious to goofy as all can be substories to back to an intense story brawl is what makes Yakuza games so damn fun so I’m 100% with you my man

Laser cannons add to the realism of Majima’s pirate adventure. Back in the day, you couldn’t set sail to find any treasure without a few laser beams heading your direction. It’s kinda underutilized nowadays, but RGG knows what’s up and that’s lasers

They’ll end up upgrading the whole trilogy to PS6 eventually anyways. Still day 1 for me no matter where it launches

When everyone zigs, it’s time to zag 😎😎😎

Me: “Babe, you can’t buy groceries for two months. I just invested in EA stocks. Don’t worry though: we’ll live off of gummy worms until it skyrockets like GameStop did.”

Imaginary wife: “I thought we were investing in Capcom.”

Me: “Nah, only an idiot would do that.”

Imaginary wife: “Yeah, well I just invested in a divorce lawyer who’s big into Capcom stocks.”

Me: “You’re going to regret it!!! EA to the moon, baby!!!”

Imaginary Wife: “……… Goodbye, CWill97.”

So yeah, zag-a-lag and buy EA stocks. Nothing could go wrong 😎😎😎

Yeah I think I’m day 1 buying this. Let’s go!

Extra has been worth it for me. Premium has been a major letdown. I’ll be tiering down to Extra once my stacks expire in like ‘28 or whatever

@Czar_Khastik anything free has to be a scam. That’s why I pay my wife every night

I’ll be downloading Ragnarok & Gaiden for replays and Medievil 2.

Still haven’t played the Valhalla DLC, and Gaiden was such a blast. Highly recommend both Ragnarok & Gaiden. Although Gaiden is a terrible starting point, I feel as if the combat is as refined as ever. Played Medievil 1 a few months ago and really enjoyed it

Damn it, I thought Tales of Arise was a PS+ Essential title. Now I’m gonna have to pull out my disc when I replay it 😭😭😭 Yes, it’s a lazy man problem but… I’m lazy.

Scarlet Nexus is a lot of fun. Story isn’t anything special but the combat system is fast enough to have a blast with over time. I believe that game was on PS+ Essential

Yeah that change is weird to me. A huge plot point is Strohl battling his own perception on nobility and what it stands for. So by taking out the whole army section, it makes that a little less clear to me. Plus Hulkenberg cutting down the bandits was the “Woah, Atlus isn’t messing around” moment for me right at the start. I thought the beginning while slow in-game could’ve translated well and fast enough in the manga.

@ShogunRok I just submitted mine. I hope it’s what you guys are looking for. If I need to change anything including the topic, let me know! I thought it was an interesting subject though 😂😂

It’s 2025 and the headings are still a work of art

Never change, Push Square

I just want the Banjo games to come here. I played them a crap ton as a kid but never actually finished them

Do I replay LAD Gaiden’s PS4 version next week or just be patient for Majima’s game? I bought the PS5 physical version on playasia and have been kinda regretting not grabbing the PS4 one instead. Gaiden is fantastic and a must play. Ragnarok is amazing as well! Awesome month 😎😎

I just hope that the wildfire relief efforts actually make it to the people in need. There are many suffering with home/belonging loss not to mention potential injuries/death(s) in the family. It’s horrific what’s happening so I hope the support gets to the right people

Prayers up to everyone affected and all their loved ones 💙💙💙

Dang, I really enjoyed spending money for feautures that should be available Day 1 for free

I’ll check it once in awhile but I’m not buying a game just to earn a few extra coins. I check it mainly for the “play this game and get 50 coins” which adds up after awhile

I didn’t bother because I really disliked True Colors. I just thought it was going to be more of the same and I didn’t like that same. It’s a shame because I really enjoyed LIS 1 and Before the Storm

@RBMango yeah that’s a great point tbh. They destroyed that major Kiryu in IW “update” reveal that 100% didn’t need to be in trailers.

Do I really want to watch this even though I’ve already preordered the game? Yes. Should I watch this? Probably not. Will I watch this? Probably yes because I’m a sucker for anything Majima

Would’ve been cool if they made special Pro plates just for the employees. All the PS Studios should do that, a controller or both as a bonus tbh. But I assume that’d get pricey eventually. Any extra perks to retain/keep talent happy is cool to me though

Imagine if Hugh Hefner bought Naughty Dog thinking it was something completely different instead. ND would’ve had fifteen brilliant and well-developed women protagonists with some lovely “features”. Oh man, Mr. Hefner you let me down big time there 😭😭😭

NCAA Football ‘25 Dynasty. I created what I think is a cool promotion and relegation system.

Unicorn Overlord I’m going to keep going at as well
