As someone who never much cared for FF7 in the first place (even OG, except for the wow factor of its cut scenes back in the day), my preference easily goes to Clair Obscure
@Jrs1 Can't answer for everyone else but, afaic, watching the bests of the bests, you also find new techs and way to strategize your games... As well as the thrill of watching whether your favorite will win or not.
Whatever the field you are into, watching experts applying their savoir faire is often entertaining and enlightening imho ^^
@AhmadSumadi Why ? Is she hated? Not up to date with tabloïds.
Just thought she looked the part in star wars solo and Falcon/winter soldier séries... Not talking about the quality of either feature/show, just her part.
@LiamCroft Hello Liam, how did you feel about side content? When I played Tsushima, I felt like the missions tied to the main story were strong but I gave up on the platinum for side quests (farms to free mostly as far as I recall) ended up boring me and felt too repetitive to to me.
Fate and Invincible interest me ^^ I already did P5T, found it cute, cool, easy but still with that Persona touch on the story. Really dug the new characters and some cut scenes/theme music.
@DonkeyFantasy I live in France and one of m'y best childhood friend lives in Quebec. We fight and chat together almost every sunday at the sale hour. That is very close to inviting a friend and couch pvp. We do laugh and rage and talk about Silly things. Only différence is snacking. Crunching sounds through the mic are a no-no
I played the demo this summer and while there was a lot to love, I found the gameplay pretty hard to figure out correctly. Most notably, getting the hang of the "fighting" part when cops are involved. Really hope it's a bit less "rough" in the final produc as, again, there was a lot to love IMHO
@ShogunRok Hello there, is there a chapter select of some kind once we finish the game we can just play through it, without worry and, then, go for a selective collectathon ? ^^
There is something very disturbing with their lipsynch... Also... It's hard to explain, but it looks like there are different art direction, depending on the sequences... like, different games from the same genre... bizarre IMHO.
I am the target audience so there is no way I can resist, I am just too weak, must buy IMHO.
Max did a second vidéo watching, I believe, the devs playing high level matches and you can see the game showing much more of its real potential ^_^
Ps: nevermind, you put the video I thought of on. Mea culpa Xb
@AccessibleDaydream I played Kurasawa mode for immersion and here is my experience:
1) I played Ghost Of T pretty late in its life cycle and, although it was a beautiful game on release, it showed its age when I booted it. The Black and White helped hiding what could have looked dated (realism doesn't age well in video games).
2) However, anything related to finding a coloured item was a bore.
3) Not linked to black and white mode but, I guess it's part of the same experience, I think Ghost of T is lipsynched to English and not Japanese and, depending on your eye for details, this could bother you.
All in all, IMHO, this mode helped me getting in and probably made me play the game longer than I would have otherwise. However, if I ever intend to play Yotei, I'll probably keep the colours on since the game will be pretty new and certainly display some of the most outstanding graphics available. Maybe... if there is like an intense emotional duel and I need to get "in the mood" you know? For drama
I am a bit tired of having to watch more feet on display...but I guess they know their audience xD Aki, Manon and Jamie look particularly on brand though IMHO
Sagat looked great in the trailer though
Not a fan of johnny World tour trailer usually but I really liked the idea of the menacing tiger aura, very shonen, and the giant sized feeling from the camera angles and all.
Nice! I have KOF XV but a friend of mine living in Canada confused the region when he bought Diablo IV expension, so he gave me the code for free... I just needed to core game to try it Jusant is intriguing, heard many good thing about it.
Quite interested. It's a game I couldn't finish on PS1 (wasn't my PS1) so it's kind of a lose end from my own IRL character arc
However, I wished they'd have given it the same kind of graphics Triangle Strategy (which I still must play) or Octopath Travelers had. This game, and FF6 FWIW, really would have deserved it IMHO.

Hard agree.
I'd buy an anti A.K.I device in a heartbeat
In the mean time, I know you're enjoying Ghost Of Yotei though (at least I hope so)
Re: Capcom Refuses to Back Down on Crazy Street Fighter 6 Pay-Per-View Plan
@Korgon
I heard someone suggesting being able to watch it in the sf6 hub and I thought this could have been a nice compromize.
Maybe, even linking it to a mandatory in game Capcom cup outfit/stage purchase.

Oooh... You know, it's funny, and not that important anyway, but I never realized she was a black woman.
To me, she was... Just looking like Aloy, mostly orange with wild hair...
Like, the same color chart somehow... Not sure if it makes sense lol

Re: 8 PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for September 2025 Announced

Wait, did you actually see her (real face and all)? Or is it a form of speech just to say you went to ger concert?

Not a fan of johnny World tour trailer usually but I really liked the idea of the menacing tiger aura, very shonen, and the giant sized feeling from the camera angles and all.
