@AhmadSumadi Mostly I was being cynical but yah, it's an uphill battle. It's not impossible but there is a reason he's beloved and synonymous with the character. Put that against how there have been 10+ Superman, Batman, Spiderman, etc. I mean, it speaks for itself.
Sometimes a performance just knocks it out of the park such as Mark Hamill's Joker or the late Kevin Conroy's Batman. Amazing performances that redefined the characters. There is a chance for this to happen with Wolverine but it will be tough to upstage Hugh Jackman.
Happy to see those "modern day" parts removed. They always feel jarring and pull me out of the game. I get it, the "animus" blah blah but yah I don't like it. I don't want to sit at a cubicle - I just want to be a pirate.
Love searching for gear upgrades and exploring so RPG elements, stats on gear, sounds great too. I'm in.
@Anti-Matter DQ3 HD-2D remake (out now) is a good place to start. Then DQ1-2 HD-2D out in late October. All incredible games if you like the feel of a grand adventure and controlling a full party (Though DQ1 is a single character game).
Fun game that I enjoyed but the gameplay was a bit disjointed. Starting the game (and story) out midway through the anime was the first thing. The game should tell you about it or at least give a summary.
The missions were fun but I wasn't sad to see it was a short game.
@Jedihillis Serious question - is there a point where it kicks in? Not looking for spoilers but I have tried the first game 3 times and cannot get into it. I loved old Metal Gear games should I not be expecting a similar experience?
I just ran out to the Wind Station and now it wants me to run all the way back to Central Knot City? Geeze. I feel like there needs to be more stuff happening between destinations.

Oh this is awesome news. All-you-can eat-subscription model just hurts us all in the long run.

Re: Who Is Playing Wolverine in Insomniac's PS5 Game?
There will only ever be 1 Wolverine.
Re: Atelier Resleriana: The Red Alchemist & the White Guardian (PS5) - A Vibrant RPG That Transforms Grind into Gold
Looking forward to some turn-based battles. Yumia, imo, was a few steps in the wrong direction.
Re: Ghost of Yotei (PS5) - The Greatest Sucker Punch Game Ever
Too many games coming out right now but this one is definitely on my radar.
The Beast
Atelier Resleriana
Yotei
Final Fantasy Tactics
Dragon Quest 1&2
Silent Hill f
It's a packed quarter.

Re: Nerfed PS5 Console Silently Releases with Less Storage Space
Just buy a 2TB M.2. Never worry about hard drive space again (this gen).

Re: Final Fantasy 7 Remake Trilogy's Conclusion Will Not Be PS5 Exclusive
This is a good thing. Exclusives are not good for anyone.
Re: Dragon Quest 7 Returns in Reimagined Form, Out for PS5 in February 2026
Looking forward to replaying this one. That said, I'm glad it's "streamlined". A 100+ hour game just isn't in the cards for me anymore.
Re: Dead Island 3 Teased as Dead Island 2 Passes 20 Million Players
Make some likable characters this time around.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Hollow Knight: Silksong?
@KundaliniRising333 It has a few frustrating balance issues but I love the setting, combat, and crafting. It's a great game overall.
If you love the medieval era and enjoy games like Dark Souls, Salt and Sanctuary I recommend it.
Re: Ghost of Yotei PS5 Consoles, Accessories Available to Pre-Order Right Now
Yoteeiiiiiiiiiii
We have waited for you for so long...
Soon...
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Hollow Knight: Silksong?
Playing Mandragora. Excellent game so far.
Re: Hollow Knight: Silksong Release Crashes Storefronts Like Steam, Not Even Live on PS Store
Cant buy anything on steam right now because of this game.

Re: Resident Evil Requiem Has Third-Person Camera for Those Who Found Resident Evil 7 Too Scary
Tried a replay of RE:7 in VR and quickly decided it was just too real.
Re: Devil May Cry, Dragon's Dogma, and Rival Schools Combine in Capcom Legend's New AAA Game
Oh yes, so there is hope for a successor to Dragons Dogma.
Re: Capcom's Going All-In on TGS, Games and Showcase Announced
Guess Dragons Dogma is just orphaned now. Sad. At least we got DD2.
Re: The Next Tales of Remaster Will Be Officially Announced Tomorrow
Nice. I had Xillia but would be in on a remaster since I didn't finish it.
Graces f had me from the start.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Mafia: The Old Country?
Just finished this one. Excellent linear game with an above average story. Really enjoyed this one.
Re: Death Stranding 2 Delivers Five Hour PS Plus Trial Next Week
@Max_the_German Very true. I'll fix it.

Re: Trails in the Sky PS5 Remake Reportedly Double the Length of Original Game
Knowing these games it's probably all dialogue.
Re: Hideo Kojima Alone Is Currently Working on PlayStation Exclusive Physint
I wish I could understand what people like about Death Stranding.
Re: Now It's Being Sued, Blatant Horizon Rip-Off Removes Copycat Artwork
Feels like they did it for the exposure knowing they would change the art style.
Re: Game of the Month: Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound (July 2025)
A lot of nothing this month.
Re: Innocuous Days Gone Tweet Attracts Xbox Fans Like Flies to Slaughtered Freakers
What does "xbox coded" mean?
Loved Days Gone. The more people that can play this gem the better.

What? Popcorn and controllers are a perfect match.

Re: Interview: Out Today, Ready or Not Is the Modern, Relentless Rainbow Six: Vegas for PS5
PC players have turned on this game in a major way. Stands at Mostly Negative now on steam.
Re: PS5 Pro Support Live for This Month's Best PS Plus Game
@Rangers420 Same. I really wanted to like this one. On paper it sounds like something right up my alley but got bored in a forest area some hours in.
I'll have to give it another try.
Re: Atelier Ryza Trilogy Returns in Massive PS5, PS4 Triple Pack
Fantastic trio of games.
Re: Game of the Month: Death Stranding 2 (June 2025)
So much nothing to choose from.
Re: Overlooked Action RPG Granblue Fantasy: Relink Just Topped a Solid 2 Million Sales
Fun game that I enjoyed but the gameplay was a bit disjointed. Starting the game (and story) out midway through the anime was the first thing. The game should tell you about it or at least give a summary.
The missions were fun but I wasn't sad to see it was a short game.

Can't wait (and pay for) for Ghost of Yotei.
Re: Interview: Final Fantasy Tactics Veterans on Remastering an All-Time Classic RPG
I'm sad Matsuna hates pixels and went w/ that same ugly smear from Tactics Ogre...
Re: Atlus JRPG Metaphor: ReFantazio Tags on 1 Million Sales Since Launch
Insanely good game. Loved it and also loved Clair Obscure. I bought both for full price and think the both deserve to be played by any turn-based fan.
Re: Atelier's New PS5 Protagonist Looks Like a VTuber, And That's Fine by Us
@AhmadSumadi
Totally into turn-based Atelier.
