Well we're never going to see this dude again, especially if he starts downloading mods.

Megaman Legends
Megaman crash-lands on Kattelox Island with his hot mechanic girlfriend... or sister? Not by blood.
She’s like “Mega Man, we need more refactors,” and he’s like “Okay Roll,” and then he goes into the sewers and shoots robot wolves from Hell.
GAMEPLAY: The gameplay loop is: go into a ruin, find three key cards, unlock a battery, grind scrap for upgrades.
Mega Man topples every time he’s hit. There’s no grace period. There’s no aiming reticule either. Also, auto-lock plants your feet so you become a stationary victim. Don't bother using auto aim on moving platforms. It just goes haywire.
This auto-map is terrible. Is this room above me or below me? "Yes.”
You will miss a key card, you will wander for fifteen minutes.
The enemies are camouflaged with the exact same PS1 diarrhea green as the walls. You don’t see them. You just hear that little electronic “boop” which means they've clocked you. The reaver bots are not cute mascots. At max power you’ll pump a dozen shots into them, and the bigger ones don’t even stagger. Combat isn’t even that lucrative: the money drops despawn in seconds, and trying to collect them often means sprinting directly into crossfire.
Meanwhile, enemies love to camp just outside doorways, so you’ll open a door and immediately get stun-locked into a ragdoll routine. It’s slower than classic Mega Man. Way more cautious. You have to methodically clear rooms.
The special weapons are a scam. Limited ammo, expensive to upgrade, and you can only equip one. But if you don’t bring the right one, you’ll hit a random wall you can’t break and have to walk all the way back to the surface like a fool.
The bosses are damage sponges and you start every fight in a killbox. After experimenting with strategy, I realized the best tactic is just guzzling E-Tanks and trading hits to see who dies first. 4/10
GRAPHICS: Legends has that proto–cel-shaded look. It’s readable. Honestly, it looks better than Xenogears. (Exiting a room in that game felt like paperwork.)
The wilderness is technically just a big hallway. But they disguise it well. "Wow, nature." 9/10
SOUND: Capcom music is high effort. Every municipal building has its own theme. Didn’t they get the composer from Resident Evil to do the cartoon sewer tracks? It does add tension, though. I like the little environmental sounds: whistling trees, weird lonely wind and stray dogs barking in Old Town. 7/10
STORY: Have you ever played an action RPG? Then you’ve played Mega Man Legends. Ruins, amnesia, cyclops robots. The final boss is just a torso that’s like, “Humanity must be cleansed". The game ends with zero answers about why the world flooded or who Mega Man actually is.
It’s post-apocalyptic but in a chill way. The city feels alive with traffic and wide streets. The vibe is so cheerful, it’s like a slapstick anime setting.
The city hub is divided into walled districts to keep pirates out. Pirates with airships.
So the walls are basically decorative. There are three main wards and each one has an NPC who’s important for ten minutes. You’ve got Budget Columbo, the Mayoress with no neck, and Wily moonlighting as a boat salesman. I continue to wonder why Mega Man even has a third crew member on the ship. Gramps does not meaningfully participate to events.
And then the villains show up: the Bonne family. Tron Bonne sends out these little Lego men to rob the bank. The Servbots start shelling the town with robot tanks. And when you blow up the tanks, the Servbots eject. I chase the little plastic men down and execute them.
The Bonnes are paint-by-numbers anime villains. Tron’s the tsundere genius. Teisel’s the loud recurring boss who’s like “Next time, Mega Man!” And then there’s the third sibling who’s, uhh....Bon Bonne is like a robot baby who does absolutely nothing. Their giant mech encounters are often more entertaining than the ancient reaverbot bosses.
Roll and Tron are supposed to be this harem. Needless to say, Tron steals the show. It is slightly contrived how quickly she falls for Mega Man.
Roll's contribution is stopping you mid-dungeon to ask, “Mega Man… maybe these giant murder robots are guarding something?” Yeah that's usually how it works. The crew also insists that the SNK boss at the end "wasn’t built for combat.” Blow me. 8/10

If you played WWZ or Space Marine 2 its the same game again with a new coat of paint. They keep making liscensed titles with the same engine and the same enemies.

For the John Wick game, I personally think they're going to copy the hitman formula without the freedom the bond game is likely going to go for. Basically another uncharted clone.

im hoping its kinda like sifu
replicant, the story isnt tied to the awful gameplay so easing that burden the way to go. The original is painful to play. Also the original has a really bad translation.

Play the Replicant remaster. Gameplay and graphics are vastly improved. As far as I'm aware the only difference between the original Nier here in the West (Gestalt) and Replicant is the protagonist, the story / gameplay is essentially the same.

Speaking of Ratatouille, did anybody know that THQ published four different ports of a Ratatouille video game on ELEVEN different platforms?
That has to be a record of one game released on the most platforms simultaneously.
they already have resident evil 1-3 and silent hill 4 (not 2 or 3 though which have pc ports)

They're decent steps, FF7 is probably the highest profile retro game they've got.

Might be a schizo theory but maybe it's because Konami wants consumers to eat the remake slop. Wasn't there rumors about 1 and 3 getting the same treatment?
No because they had 20 years to release them before the remake, they just dont care.

I've been playing songs of Styx a lot and that game really gets me by the balls. Fantasy city builder with depth of mechanics and fairly unique and detailed races. Playing each race feels like a completely different experience and there's lots of replayability.
My only complaint is that I fucking hate how research works.

Finished the Front Mission 1 remake just now and while I'm glad these "remakes" are exposing more people to the franchise they feel like cheap cash grabs and not much else. Proper remakes of 4 and 5 with modern graphics would be great but I'm not holding my breath.

The Studio that made Robocop Rogue City has filed for bankruptcy, shame actually kinda liked that one even if the DLC was complete dogshit.

I fucking hate how every PvP game now has to be either a hero shooter, an extraction shooter,and a battle royale, cant ever have plain arena games coming out (that doesn't have NASA level system requirements and performs like shit even if you do, fucking Cod) out of the three of those I only enjoy Hero Shooters, other than OW and TF2 it feels like anything else is boring
