Someone give me a reason as to why Vicarious Visions being absorbed into Blizzard is a good fucking idea. You put out bangers like THPS 1+2 and the N.Sane Trilogy, then get forced to fart out the rest of your legacy in the WoW mines. Horseshit.

The Persona music has hit Spotify. https://open.spotify.com/artist/4hFBhdNVZZuVk5FYThUwaN?si=mtOMnbmbT72F4fPa6h9Myw

Hades, Ghost of Tsushima, Age of Calamity, Doom Eternal, Tony Hawk 1+2, Kingdom of Amalur Re-Reckoning (seriously).

EDIT- system glitch, do not go. Date is still the 10th. Best Buy Cyberpunk pre-order folks, check your order status. I got the confirmation email that it was available today and some folks on Reddit have already gone and grabbed theirs.

Rolled credits on Age of Calamity yesterday and had a blast the whole way through, aside from that annoyingly depressing map music. Enjoyed how they handled the story but I can understand some folks' grievance with it. Now working on the [spoiler] quests.

THEY DID IT. THEY STOPPED WITH ALL THE TEASES AND SHOULDER NUDGES AND ALL THE "HEY TWEWY IS IN KH BUT NEW GAME FUCK NO," TYPE OF SHIT. SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW.

My one singular gripe with Age of Calamity (so far) is that the map menu music is depressing as all hell and gets annoying after 2 minutes. Brilliant goddamn game - but can we at least get some hype before going into a mission?

I say this as someone who doesn't have a horse in this bullshit-ass dick measuring race between two dumbass companies, as a Black man who is graciously, patiently waiting for this living hell of a year to finally be over: FUCK. TIM. SWEENEY.

Hey SquareEnix, either announce a TWEWY game or shut the fuck up. I'm happy y'all still recognize the game but at this point all this teasing for random shit is putting a bad taste in my mouth.

A very decent Switch sale popping off at Best Buy.

Just wrapped the NMH 2 remaster and I've gotta say that for all the improvements it made to the original, NMH 1 definitely had the more memorable boss fights.

Insomniac added the Spider-Verse suit to Miles Morales and my jaw is on the floor. Crazy bastards did it and did it right. Damn

Yikes if true.

Anyone remember the last time Michael Pachter made sense?

I'm getting less bummed out about Steve's inclusion and getting more excited to get my hands on them. I'm really interested in how they play and I hope they drop on Saturday after the presentation. And Sakurai roasting Nintendo for this was a highlight

Well that was frustratingly awful. Honest congrats to anyone who nabbed a Series X pre-order. Best Buy decided to be a tease with one in my cart for about an hour before telling me they ran out.

Haven't seen the conference yet, but looking at the news it looked a banger. Miles Morales coming to PS4, new FF and GOW, and playable Vergil (PS4 too, hopefully?) My money is going to the Series X this year, but that's still a damn good show.

Interesting news - NIS is delisting Rodea from the Wii U and 3DS eshops on the 29th. However, they've deeply discounted the physical versions of both games at their online store. Could make for a nice little collectible. (Link in comments)

I'm sorry, what?

Wrapped up Borderlands 3 this past weekend. TLDR; surprised that the writing gets better over time, love playing as a sarcastic Irishman, and I begrudgingly...like Ava. Despite her bullshit. Want to post more thoughts later.

DOOM Eternal got a patch that nerfs weapon swap speed to the point where it's no longer a character action game. Apparently it was done for fairness in the MP no one plays. Damn.

Back in on Borderlands 3 after picking up a used copy at my local shop, and maaaan what the fuck is this inventory management and how was/is it a good idea?

Was loving Minecraft Dungeons on my Switch until I ran into the infinite loading glitch. How lovely.

Bouncing off W101 super hard. The mechanics aren't clicking and it's getting frustrating not seeing attacks coming at you due to the perspective. It's insanely charming for sure, but I'm not having as much fun with it as I'd hoped.

Hey Dtoid - I'm looking to upgrade my chair game. Been researching the Secret Lab Omega chairs but was wondering if y'all had suggestions or opinions on Omega or other options.
