Video Game General 6.4: New Halo? What else?

Sony put PES 2019 back on the PS+ free games list for July.

Edit: apparently this is just an add on for people who already own PES 2019?

Sony mustā€™ve caved in to Konami. Literally nobody was upset Detroit replaced PES this monthšŸ˜‚

Kill La Kill IF collectors editions are up for preorder. Exclusive to ArcSystems store.

Great to hear, my nephew loved watching letā€™s plays of Cuphead, although I wonder how they will handle the devil, soul taking and the various subtle vices they have in the game.

Football fans were upset about it. A lot of them wanted to try out the game since FIFA went to shit thanks to ultimate team.

Konami wasnā€™t the issue, EA was. Sony has an exclusive promotional deal with EA for FIFA. I canā€™t see EA being happy with Sony giving out free copies of FiFAā€™s direct competitor.

PSN has a really good retro sale going on right now.

Mortal Kombat reboot casts Joe Taslim from The Raid as Sub-Zero

Wonder whoā€™s gonna be the main character. Good ol Lui, Sonya, Cage? Or will Sub be the man this time?

It would have to be Liu. Sonya isnā€™t an MC anytime and Johnnyā€™s MC shine doesnā€™t come until WAY later down the road (and even then itā€™s his daughter thatā€™s the MC).

So two mediocre games and a feature no one asked for

2 Likes

Though no one asked for the rewind feature it seems pretty cool. Itā€™ll be great to have for clutch games like Lost Levels, Ninja Gaiden, Punch Out, Twin Bee, Gradius and Ghost & Goblins.

Better than constantly reloading save states.

Rewind feature is fantastic. Just because no one asked doesnā€™t mean it isnā€™t a great idea the majority of users will love. Like thats so dumb. If people only made stuff people asked for weā€™d have nothing because the vast majority of the things we have we didnā€™t know we couldnā€™t live without till we had it.

Also damn man are you depressed or something? Your constant negativity about almost everything is starting to get concerning. Do you pay for NSO? Iā€™m gonna take a wild guess and say no. So why do you give a fuck? You dog on Nintendo like Po dogged on Capcom. Po basically went fucking insane for 6 years, we donā€™t need nor want another episode.

So I ask this seriously. Are you alright man?

Thanks for asking, I feel fine.

I feel Nindy is dogging us with their choice new games lately. Donkey Kong 3 and Wrecking Crew? Really? Like What was it a few months ago, Tennis, the Black Box Tennis that came out with the system launch that offers nothing. I donā€™t feel like Nintendo digging in that deep for quality titles.

I tried the trial membership, I uninstalled their NES Emulator before the trial was half way over.
I rather they bring back the old VC model of getting classic games. I rather Re-buy the games than to play a subscription service. I know it supposed to be a bonus for having to play Online.

Also I seen the rewind thing before, I think it was the Genesis collection on Xbox One, not a fan of it.
I rather they spend that energy elsewhere.

Alright good. Iā€™m glad youā€™re fine.

A lot of people do like rewind features, itā€™s a baked in feature in a lot emulators for a reason. Iā€™ve used it from time to time to learn sections in shmups for scoring because it was a great way to really dial in a route or to see how a pattern works to figure out how to dodge it. I donā€™t use it often but it has helped me get past some walls, especially in later Cave games.

So i just want to end on that yea we get it dude, you donā€™t like NSO, you donā€™t really need to dog on every single decision they make. Its not that your opinion isnā€™t wanted but that your constant negativity is draining.

Iā€™m gonna be a bit of a dick and kinda throw Stu under the bus, but Heā€™s a way more pleasant person this year then he was last year. He never had anything good to say about anything in this thread and it really drained the joy from the place. This year Heā€™s seems to be in a much better place. Heā€™s not like giddy about everything or some shit, but Heā€™s been a lot more positive to out right excited for stuff and things he would have been negative about last year he seems.to be less eager to talk about in such a constantly negative manor and itā€™s really nice to have him around now.

Can you just likeā€¦chill a bit? Can we get you at 8 instead of an 11 perhaps?

I dunno maybe Iā€™m being an old whiny bitch, but youā€™re kinda annoying to have around sometimes man.

Im trying to choose my words carefully, Im not trying to be a dick, Iā€™m try in to be a friend. If i am wrong everyone let me know and i will kindly shut the fuck up.

You know what, looking at this

The library isnt as bad as I thought, there some titles that would have to be Auto-includes on the list.
There also some titles I am asking why? Mostly the sport titles, Tecmo Bowl and Super Dodge ball are the exceptions to my Sports Hate.

I dig most of that list I owned and played a bunch of those games as a kid and still own quite a few of them. I mean thats the whole reason I just spent $320 dollars on that Framemeister which is kinda silly when you think about it. If I didnā€™t still own most of those games I would probably be really tempted to sub and have them in HD and on the go.

There is a depressing lack of Castlevania on the list that hurts my Soul tho lol.
