@Quintumply That's awesome news. Thank you!

@Quintumply Thank you for the great review! One of my favorite features in the last game was the ability to play the entire single player campaign in two player split screen co-op. Is that still an option in this game? Thank you!

I like how half the comment section is trashing entitled NintendoLife users for something they do on their Nintendo specific site like it actually affects them personally. Way to be gracious winners guys.

It feels so weird that this game is only a month away and yet we know so much more about it's soundtrack than its actual gameplay. How many cups are there? How does Adventure Mode work in both single player and co-op? What about online play? I know this is a bad sign but I really hope this game is good

I don't know which has been dragged out longer, Persona 5's plot, or the announcement of this game.

I'd really love to see Atlus capitalize on Persona's growing fan base by introducing them to other games in the SMT universe via enhanced ports for PS4 and Switch. Digital Devil Saga, Devil Survivor, and SMT Nocturne are all really amazing games and a lot of Persona fans are missing out by having them stay on older systems.

Yes please to anything Digital Devil Saga!

@get2sammyb I know you said another discussion for another time regarding Persona 5 needing a bit of streamlining, but I would love to see a soapbox on that from you soon. Seriously, all my friends burn me at the stake for thinking that game has way too much fat on it!

I absolutely loved this game when it first came out on Xbox 360 and I can't wait to love it again. Question is do I buy it for PS4 for its smooth performance and 60fps, or do I get it for Switch for the ability to take it anywhere, play in bed, and have more readily available controllers for co-op?

Honestly a little surprised Xenoverse 2 made the list while BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle didn't. Though it looks like I'm the only one lol

@Outlaw_Overlord They've confirmed Co Op bosses but not PvP. With the producer of all the big PS2 era Armored Cores behind this one, I'll be very surprised if it doesn't make its way in seeing as how it was such a large part of the series longevity and how this game is clearly aiming to be the next Armored Core

@LieutenantFatman Yeah that's the downside. But hey at least games like this are still being made. With any luck, we'll get a proper Armored Core sequel soon

@Hapuc You misunderstand. From my two comments above, I mentioned that I actually PREFER PushSquare to NintendoLife. I think that they generally have a tighter knit community and even though there's usually less comments and activity on articles compared to NintendoLife, what is here is usually of higher quality in my opinion. I even called this site's moderators "fairly fantastic". Which is a compliment, not an attack.

@Derpie1 I'm on both PushSquare and NintendoLife pretty much every day. Yes I know that they're sister sites with a fair amount of overlap in their community but they still have their differences. But if you look at most NintendoLife comment sections, it's usually around 200+ comments of near insanity where as PushSquare rarely gets past 70 comments with tons of interaction from their (fairly fantastic) moderators. The comments here just usually aren't this bad

Wow. Come on guys. Persona 5 was one of the biggest PS4 games of last year. We should all be curious or excited about this new announcement but instead this comment section has devolved into a bunch of childish trolling. The PS4 and Switch are both great systems and there's no reason to belittle each other over ones home console of choice. I like this community because it's usually above petty things like this and generally more mature than NintendoLife. You can do better people, better get some sleep for the day.

@Bonbonetti @LieutenantFatman @Outlaw_Overlord For Everyone hoping one of these is a new Armored Core, have you seen trailers for Daemon X Machina?? While technically not a new Armored Core, it does have some Armored Core veterans working on it and is set to release early next year!

I feel like Starlink: Battle For Atlas should be on this list

I take it someone was trying to test the 3DS' 3D effect lol

Oh wow. I saw this at PSX years ago. The dev I talked to was very nice. If I remember right, this game is a heavy blend of Earthbound and Persona with a battle system full of whacky timing based mini games like a Mario RPG. So happy to see this finally make it to PS4. i'll probably pick this up.

"Tabata left Square Enix at the end of October, and not long after, we found out that DLC plans for Final Fantasy XV had been reduced significantly."
Hahaha that's an understatement. Wasn't it mere minutes later? It's like Square had to deliver a bad news good news scenario but didn't actually have any good news lol

OK guys, this is it. No really. If you're really unsatisfied with the trend of games releasing unfinished and having to wait for patches, bug fixes, and cut content: Just don't buy the game until it's finished. If there's one thing we all know about the big name publishers, it's that they won't put out something they don't think we'll buy. So this is it. Let's start making them question those practices.
And on that note, I still haven't bought my copy of FFXV haha

Wow the only way this article could get any sassier is if the game was directed by David Cage and also starred Sonic the Hedgehog

So we can get crap like this and Star Ocean 4 remastered but we can't get a remake or remaster of Xenogears? Jeez just give the rights to MonolithSoft already!

Monster Hunter Freedom Ultimate? Lol

Haha, if you REALLY want to talk about a game just barely being edged out, look at the numbers for Smash Bros Melee. Smash 4 beats it by ONE more entry!

I don't understand how Square Enix can be such a large, successful company, and yet not have the resources to divide up labor and make two big games at once

I'm going to miss Ninja Theory Microsoft shouldn't be allowed to acquire studios after Rare 💔

@GKO900 That was a different reviewer for that game. Several other reviews from different sites did in fact give Street Fighter V a lower score for those omissions. Push Square's reviewer simply thought that the game's strengths outshone it's weaknesses and was just too fun not to give a 9 to, especially with the cut content being added in later. Cross Tag Battle is a bit different in that half of the roster is DLC. In a genre like tag fighters that lives and dies by its roster size and thoughtful team composition, this really is a huge blow to an otherwise enjoyable game. Especially when you consider a lot of those DLC characters are actually already present as CPUs

@ShogunRok Haha you're welcome I know a lot of people are more accepting of these kinds of things but as an older gamer who grew up before the days of post release patches and day one DLC, it can be really jarring some times and I quite miss getting a complete package on release day

@ShogunRok Also, kudos to you for calling Arc System Works out on their questionable practices and making them pay for it through the game's review score. If more reviewers were like you, we could have less controversial practices on our hands. And just out of curiosity, what do you think you would have given this game if 30, 35, or even all 40 characters were included in the base game?

I think it's worth mentioning that the other two RWBY characters Blake and Yang are a free download (though Yang isn't available yet), while Kanji, Platinum, and Orie are free for the first two weeks of release. That brings the roster to 24 (plus Yang on the way) with the other 15 as paid DLC that will release later

@WanderingBullet Yes. Pretty sure they will be events so you can only do one at a time. The first up is Arch Tempered Kirin (because of course lol)

@shonenjump86 Haha no. We got Sonic 3 and Sonic & Knuckles, but not the combined game Sonic 3 & Knuckles the way it's supposed to be played

Lol they still won't put Sonic 3 & Knuckles in one of these collections? Haven't seen the game on consoles since Sonic Mega Collection on PS2/GameCube/Xbox. Also Ecco 2 is one of my favorites (that sweet music!) Disappointed and will not be getting this

Pretty sure IGN already does this.

Probably going to get flack for this, but I feel that Persona 5 should be much lower on this list. Plenty of other more deserving games here.

Go Night In The Woods! Currently replaying this after all the updates.

Can they just remake Mass Effect Andromeda so it can be good this time?

@get2sammyb Just finished this for myself and I see what you mean. This was a quick little emotional goodbye and not much else, though I did really enjoy it. Good review as usual.

This reads like a solid 8 to me. Didn't see any negatives aside from the short length, though it is only a bonus episode. What would have made this better?

Whether it's a Sonic Racing game or not, what's really important here is that it's becoming pretty obvious that Sumo Digital is working on a kart racer and that's all I need to know. I absolutely loved All Star Racer Transformed

Thanks again for the update! Sword and Shield seems like one of the hardest trees to make. So many of the final element or status ailment weapons require Elder Dragon materials that a lot of other weapon trees don't have to deal with. Also, although I appreciate this guide, element and status attack numbers have been left out and that's the most important part for a Sword and Shield user.

@FoxyGlen Thank you for updating this guide. Monster Hunter has been a blast! I would love to see a retrospective look at the series with maybe a poll so we can vote on our favorite game in the series, favorite weapon type, favorite Monster, or even which Monster we'd like to see come back in World. Thanks again, and keep the Monster Hunter content coming!

Jaco all the way. He would be a very technical fighter that relies on gadgets and speed to strategically set up combos. I love scrappy, unorthodox fighters and he would add some nice variety too

I love so much that you use Burter for the cover picture of this article.

I Think honorable mention goes to Night In The Woods for its fantastic soundtrack

@get2sammyb You guys should do a similar tournament with characters you dislike more. Bubsy Vs. Big The Cat anyone?

Well...at least Sony understands the concept of love. 🎶

Been playing this series since Monster Hunter Freedom Unite on PSP and it's fascinating to see a new audience's take on the beta. Getting into Monster Hunter early on would have been impossible without my friends explaining everything. This Beta did a much better job than any other entry so far in showing you the basics and letting you get a feel for your weapon of choice. But come on guys, 20 minutes isn't long enough? Pick up the pace! That first monster can be beaten in 3 minutes easy! The second one in 6 or 7!

yeah can't find it here in the US
