The point of this game was to sate Mega Man fans after the series went dormant. Now that we have two (well, technically 4) collections of past games and a brand new game, Mighty No. 9 is even less mighty. Not a lot of people are gonna miss this one.

I remember when she was booed at EVO 2009. That's how bad she was.

This is a combo example from her-

This game looks great.

How many are gonna play it, though?

I'm personally gonna wait on it. Still have games I need to finish.

As for the review, I get why people are divided on it. "Tedious" isn't a word I'd use for 10/10 review, but it is Liam's review, he's played it, and since reviews are essentially opinions, he's entitled to it if he feels that way. He's not putting a gun to your head and telling you to accept it, is he?

I'm waiting for the physical release. The box looks rad.

I know I sound harsh, but this didn't need explaining. The profits their exclusive software make is enough to tell them how dedicated exclusives matter, and if it isn't, the slide the Xbox One has had for years will convince them. With this and how they can still make money even if it's not on PlayStation itself, I don't see anything worth worrying about.

I like the artwork very much. Soejima's style never gets old. Too bad we're probably not getting it.

Never mattered to me to begin with, still doesn't matter to me now. I've banged this drum before-

"I just don't make a big deal about it because as a PS4 owner, I can play it either way. The system already has a large lineup of exclusive titles, and already has sold many, many systems. I'm not saying they should stop making exclusives or selling units, I just don't see a reason to make a huge deal about it this late in the generation, when a ton of money has already been made. PlayStation is fine, not having it 100% exclusive isn't gonna kill them, and they'll always have more exclusives later on."

Reusing my own comment is probably lazy as heck but I dunno how many times I can say it differently.

I seriously hope we don't need to pay for freaking frame data. Something that is standard in other games like Mortal Kombat 11 (or Mortal Kombat X, a game that released two years before T7 hit consoles). That would also be stupid because the frame data is also available on sites like rbnorway and even through a dedicated smartphone app, completely for free.

I love Tekken 7, I've spent a lot of time playing it, but god post launch content has been hit and miss with it's handling.

I'm honestly looking forward to this more than some AAA games. Beat 'em Up games might be samey, but I like a game that's just good solid fun, and they're always appreciated in an era of more artistic games.

MediEvil was one of those PS1 games I never managed to play, so I will check out this remake somewhere down the line.

Everytime I see "cross between stick and pad", stuff like this comes to mind-

Uncharted 2 if you ask me was the big sign that PlayStation was turning itself around after a rough start with the PS3. The turning point where it started to look more like a quality machine with games to match.

For me personally, Uncharted 2 is just a really good game, and still the high point of the series for me. One of the best openings in gaming, with simple yet refined gameplay, a great cast of characters with a memorable villain, and graphics that still look great even if it was outdone by Uncharted 3 later on. Overall, just a well made game.

I feel sad that the graphics somehow got worse. Hilariously enough, this is the most involved discussion on wrestling we've had here in a while.

Side note, I feel like there's only three types of articles for sports games-

-Cover star reveal
-It exists
-How bad it is

I think it's a shame that we're not getting it. Looks gorgeous.

About time. Maybe I'll be able to get a decent amount of Wumpa Coins now.

@AdamNovice You're telling me. I just woke up.

"Hmm. Better check Push Square."
"Round Up: New PS5 Info"
"HUH?"

Be real, this article was only made to show off that Last of Us theme.

If this is true, March and April are gonna be a massive timesink. Between this, FF7, and Cyberpunk, that's a lot of RPG.

@Rob_230 I dunno. Yeah, there would be more time to play it, plus it wouldn't clash with other games, but it's due this month in Japan. Having to wait for a 9 month period at the earliest just for a localization would be ridiculous, and the wait for vanilla P5 after it's Japanese release was already long enough if you ask me. I know Atlus doesn't have the best track record with timely western releases, but we shouldn't wait that long for it.

I haven't been playing it recently. I only did a day of the Spyro Grand Prix, and stopped after the microtranactions were brought in, as well as the subsequent nerfing of coins gained from online. That really put a damper on the game for me.

Remember when this was a common occurrence? Now it's pretty rare for PSN to be down.

@avenovah Oh yeah, him too. That makes two for me, then.

That came right out of nowhere. Surprised he would leave, especially since it wasn't that long ago House & Kaz Hirai left. I feel like everyone I could actually name from PlayStation's execs (Jim Ryan aside) has left.

Well, wish him the best. Since he was one of the more prolific suits, I wonder who'll step up in his place.

I wanna see more on that new character from the original EVO trailer. May and Axl are nice, but series veterans know they're coming, unless the roster's getting shaken up.

Still, I am really excited for this game, and I'm currently trying to put the work in learning GG.

To me, the pain of going through Crushing on Uncharted 2 and 3 for the platinums was enough. Screw your multiplayer, I got my golden snitch!

That said, it is nice to see gamers collaborate, but boosting ain't my thing. Even if it's stupidly tedious, I'd rather get it naturally playing. Otherwise, I don't feel accomplished about it.

I know the obvious joke is pee, but the controller reminds me of the baby pods. That ain't much better, huh?

Lots of cinematics, eh? I don't think I expected different.

Looks pretty good, and hits early on into the year. Early 2020 already looks solid.

Coming from someone who only played FF7 20 years after it came out, the score in that game will be hard to top. Judging from this though, I think they'll be fine.

When I first saw that artwork, I knew it needed to be the boxart.

By now, I expect a release date. Info about this game has been slow, but if we're supposed to get this anytime soon, I'm there's at least a release window coming our way.

I'm reasonably hyped for it. I didn't think the original was as special as it's made out to be, but it was still a good game regardless. Hopefully Part II builds upon it and delivers something truly amazing.

Well, that was straight to the point, yeah?

If we're gonna get remakes or remasters, I'd rather it would be older titles, than ones from a few years back (or even yet to be released). Instead of Witcher 3, I'd like a better chance to play the first two games, one of which was never released on consoles.

And as per usual, any remake/remaster thread needs me begging for Jet Set Radio. If I can never get JSR Future, I'll take a remake of the original if there's never gonna be a new game.

I'm not sure if Sony would be willing to do something like this. Games take money to make, PlayStation exclusive titles probably have loads of money pumped into them, so would the money they could get with a game pass esque service be worth not getting as much from full price retail/digital? I get that more subscriptions = more $$$, but I'm sure everyone's seen those sales figures of other PS exclusive titles and well, they can probably afford to do it, but would it be worth it?

Would I subscribe to it? Only if I have no option, I guess. I mean, I only use PS+ for gaming subscriptions. I don't use PS Now, but I can imagine that being a base for this model. In the end, it just comes down to how it's handled and ultimately, how many of these things I'll have to pay for just to enjoy my hobby.

By the time I knew it was cross, I was too used to "ex" to change. A lot of games called it the X button too, as in saying "ex". Am I supposed to go back and correct them?

Bentley: Press X to jump.
Sly: Don't you mean "press cross"?
Bentley: Since when did we become a church?

Only 5 days away, huh? Man, September is gonna be busy.

Always been a favorite game of mine. I like how customizable it feels. In fact, this was one of the first games that showed me how deep gameplay can be.

Great review Rob. I have an itch to play this again.

Every system has it's exclusive titles. It's just the way of life. Review bombing because it's not on your preferred platform is petty and immature.

So does this mean we'll see a music collab like with Snoop Dogg for Tag 2?

Another year, another survey done.

Had a tooth pulled, so no creams for me.

Heh, bit of a surprise. I haven't played Aladdin, but I remember playing a Lion King game on Game Boy Color ages ago. Maybe it was based on this game.

EA doing something for free? Excuse me, gonna see if pigs started flying.

@Deadlyblack Yeah, I did too. I was pretty burnt out after the first Grand Prix, but I'll definitely want the Spyro characters.

Hopefully the online is better now.

I can see a sequel happening on PS4, but I wouldn't expect the original to get a port if have Microsoft a tight enough grip on it.

I wouldn't mind either or both, since the original is one of the unfortunately few titles for Xbox I was interested in. At this rate, I'd rather Sony buy the Killer Instinct dev so I can finally play that, instead of buying a separate system.

You could argue that Yakuza itself has had difficulty in the west, yet here we are now, with multiple titles in the series doing well since 0's release, not to mention Judgment's recent western release.

C'mon Sega, do it.

Well, that was a plot twist.

I might get that physical collection. I did buy 0 and Kiwami 2 but I haven't even opened them yet because I've been busy with Horizon.

@GodGamer When I say "not for everyone", I mean that the general gamer probably won't appreciate it as much as a more dedicated one would. That's why I said "I don't mean to sound like some elitist", because it ends up making me sound like some wannabe artistic snob going all "you won't enjoy this as much as I would, you plebeian, ho ho ho". Kinda like how From Software games aren't for everyone because of the difficulty curve, yeah?

Not to say you don't have a point, because everyone does have different tastes. I just felt I should clarify what I meant.

But can it beat GTA5?

Seriously though, major props to Insomniac.

R&C is one of my favorite series in general, not just on PlayStation. Considering how well done the 2016 game was, I'm eagerly awaiting anything on a new installment, taking full advantage of new technology.
