Bloodstained Ritual of the Night (PS4 version on PS5): Game completed, all trophies obtained. Fatal Fury City of the Wolves (PS5): Finished Arcade mode with Kevin. Bloodborne (PS4 version on PS5): Defeated Ebrietas (Isz Root Dungeon) and obtained my first Abyssal Blood Gem. Devil May Cry 5 (PS5): Dante Must Die difficulty unlocked.
Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night (PS4 version on PS5): Got the trophy for jump kick 10 times without touching the ground; defeated Bathin. Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves (PS5): Completed the Episodes of South Town with B. Jenet. Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth Complete Edition (Switch): Reached Episode 14, defeated Ebemon. Guilty Gear Accent Core Plus R: Completed Arcade with Faust. New Tales from the Borderlands: Episode 1 completed.
Hyped by Monster Hunter Stories 3. Also, happy with Persona 3 Reload, Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment, Yakuza Kiwami 2, Borderlands 4, The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales and SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance.
Overall, it was a good direct (although too much EA); the JP Direct had more variety.
Resident Evil 3 Remake (PS5): Finished the game on Hardcore. Fatal Fury City of the Wolves (PS5): Arcade mode finished with Andy. Borderlands 3 (PS5): Cistern of Slaughter completed. Them's Fightin' Herds (Switch): Finished Arcade mode with Oleander. Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus R (Switch): Arcade mode finished with Chipp and Bridget.
-Metaphor: Refantazio (PS4): Finished the game, really good. -Metroid Prime Remastered: Omega Pirate pulverized, 10 Artifacts obtained. -Borderlands the Pre-sequel (PS4): Wilhem at level 20, used a second control to help with the To Arms! sidequest. -Elden Ring (PS4): defeated Rellana, Twin Moon Knight after 4 tries. Happy weekend and gaming everyone.
So basically, former dev with have too much free time makes a forced comparison between different games and uses the excuse of "realism" to prove his point.
That's good. The "americanized" japanese games, like dmc (2013) or Bionic Commando (2009) or Bomberman Act Zero or Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z were a really bad idea.
Metaphor: ReFantazio (PS4) Trial of the Dragon: Bygone Legacy completed, 8 days until the final battle. ENDER LILIES: Quietus of the Knights (Switch) Ending B obtained.
@Serpenterror Killer Instinct wasn't a F2P, the free version is just a glorified demo. Killer Instinct Anniversary Edition is the complete game. The F2P model was a lie told by the IGN "journos", then, other journos repeated the same misinformation instead of investigating on their own.
This soundtrack, despite what some people say, is really good. Some of my favourites (in no particular order) include Rocket Run, Big Boss Blue, Jangle Bells, Stilt Village, Jungle Jitter, Crazy Calypso, Sub-Map Shuffle, Frosty Frolics, Water World, Rockface Rumble, Cavern Caprice, Krematoa Concert, Cascade Capers and Chase.
Although Link looks weird with that nose, the JP box art represents the game, unlike the NA box art with the sword that don't appear in the game or that curious empty spot that looks like an open space for a shield.
Metaphor ReFantazio: Unlocked the Masked Songtress Archetype, currently farming in the Spire of Blind Faith.
Dino Crisis: Finished the game (so good).
Fate Grand Order: Almost finishing the Part 1 of the Lostbelt 7 (only 3 fights left).
Have a great weekend everyone.
Metaphor ReFantazio: Farmed tons of exp. in the Forsaken Tower, unlocked the General Archetype, secured an infiltration route in the Charadrius and reached the Rank 7 on Brigitta's social link.
There is something wrong with that list, where is Suicide Squad KtJL, Skull and Bones or Concord? Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat and Metal Slug Attack Reloaded are good.

Also, happy with Persona 3 Reload, Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment, Yakuza Kiwami 2, Borderlands 4, The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales and SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance.
Overall, it was a good direct (although too much EA); the JP Direct had more variety.
Re: Scott Pilgrim EX Brings More Beat 'Em Up Action To Switch In "Early 2026"
Looks really cool. I wonder how many playable characters will have.
I liked the first game, the movie, graphic novels and the anime.

Re: Former Rockstar Dev Throws Shade At Mario Kart World, Says New GTA Will Be Worth The Price
So basically, former dev with have too much free time makes a forced comparison between different games and uses the excuse of "realism" to prove his point.
Re: Elden Ring On Switch 2 Will Introduce Two Brand New Character Classes
Played the game many times on PS4 (so good).
The 2 new starting classes and the Tarnished DLC are a surprise but a welcome one.
Also, Shadow of the Erdtree is included in the Switch 2 version.
Re: Borderlands 4 Release Date Moves Forward, But Switch 2 Remains Unclear
So, 2 weeks early.
Probably the Switch 2 version will have the same date as the PS5 version or maybe a few days later.
Enough time to save for any version.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones
I like the JP art more.
The map of Magvel is better background than the blurred background in the NA art.
Re: Marathon Isn't Currently Planned For Switch 2, Unsurprisingly
Not interested with that game (mainly because it's a extraction shooter)
Hyped for Metroid Prime 4, Borderlands 4 and Doom.
Re: Donkey Kong: Bananza, A New 3D DK Adventure, Is Confirmed For Switch 2

I like the colors and the DK redesign.

Rest in peace Val Kilmer.
Condolences to his family and friends.
Re: 'RAIDOU Remastered' Brings ATLUS' PS2 Supernatural RPG To Switch This June
This was a surprise.
So happy with this announcement (never had the chance to play the 1st game before).
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Nobunaga's Ambition (SNES)
I like the JP artwork (good detail including 4 in-game portraits)
The NA artwork was cut in half (and the "BE RUTHLESS" is unnecessary)
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (22nd March)
Metaphor: ReFantazio (PS4): Last Dragon Trial completed, 6 days until the final battle.
Rogue Flight (Switch): Finished the game 2 times (Beta and Gamma endings)
Skullgirls 2nd Encore (Switch): Finished Arcade mode with 2 teams (this game is really good)
Happy weekend everyone.
Re: Sakurai Says Japanese Developers Should Avoid Trying To Appeal To Western Tastes
That's good.
The "americanized" japanese games, like dmc (2013) or Bionic Commando (2009) or Bomberman Act Zero or Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z were a really bad idea.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (15th March)
Metaphor: ReFantazio (PS4) Trial of the Dragon: Bygone Legacy completed, 8 days until the final battle.
ENDER LILIES: Quietus of the Knights (Switch) Ending B obtained.
Happy weekend and gaming everyone.
Re: 'Azure Striker Gunvolt Trilogy Enhanced' Announced For Switch
That's an amazing news!!!
I have the first 2 games on 3DS and I really enjoyed them, so I don't mind playing them again along with the 3rd one.
Re: Skullgirls Dev Is Off The Game, Taking Legal Action Against Publisher
That''s messed up.
The game itself is still really good.
Also, some people claiming the game will go back to it's "rightful owner" doesn't make any sense when this has literally nothing to do with him.
Re: Pokémon Legends: Z-A Trailer Confirms Starters And Mega Evolutions, Coming Late 2025
Looks good.
The Mega evolutions are back and that's really good.
Totodile!!!
I like the new combat system.
Re: Monster Hunter-Style Free-To-Slay 'Dauntless' Is Shutting Down
@Serpenterror Killer Instinct wasn't a F2P, the free version is just a glorified demo.
Killer Instinct Anniversary Edition is the complete game.
The F2P model was a lie told by the IGN "journos", then, other journos repeated the same misinformation instead of investigating on their own.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (8th February)
Metaphor: Refantazio: Reached the final month (this game is so good).
Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights: Got 6 of the Stone Tablets (1 left).
Re: Sega's Next Football Manager Game Has Been Cancelled
The "transition to the new game engine" seems the main reason.
EA could learn a few things and being more creative with their generic sports games.
Re: 'Nintendo Music' Adds Another Donkey Kong Soundtrack, Here's Every Song Included
This soundtrack, despite what some people say, is really good.
Some of my favourites (in no particular order) include Rocket Run, Big Boss Blue, Jangle Bells, Stilt Village, Jungle Jitter, Crazy Calypso, Sub-Map Shuffle, Frosty Frolics, Water World, Rockface Rumble, Cavern Caprice, Krematoa Concert, Cascade Capers and Chase.

Have a great weekend everyone.
And Happy Birthday @JohnnyMind
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Zelda II: The Adventure Of Link
Although Link looks weird with that nose, the JP box art represents the game, unlike the NA box art with the sword that don't appear in the game or that curious empty spot that looks like an open space for a shield.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (New Year Edition)
Metaphor ReFantazio: Unlocked the Masked Songtress Archetype, currently farming in the Spire of Blind Faith.
Dino Crisis: Finished the game (so good).
Fate Grand Order: Almost finishing the Part 1 of the Lostbelt 7 (only 3 fights left).
Have a great weekend everyone.
Re: Guilty Gear Strive’s Next DLC Character Will Be A Free Update On Switch
That's really good.
Let's gooo!!!
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Breath Of Fire II
The Japanese cover art looks so good.
The NA cover looks like a poorly drawn comic.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (Christmas 2024 Edition)
Metaphor ReFantazio: Farmed tons of exp. in the Forsaken Tower, unlocked the General Archetype, secured an infiltration route in the Charadrius and reached the Rank 7 on Brigitta's social link.
Have a great weekend everyone.
Re: King Of Fighters XIII Global Match Scores A "Limited Edition" Collectors Release
That collection looks really good!!!
Although already have KoF XIII (the original version on XBOX 360 & the GM on Switch), it's an amazing game.
Re: Metacritic Reveals "The Worst Video Games Of 2024"
There is something wrong with that list, where is Suicide Squad KtJL, Skull and Bones or Concord?
Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat and Metal Slug Attack Reloaded are good.
