Supposedly died from a head injury so definitely unexpected.

RIP. This man shaped my childhood. Hope heaven is as beautiful as he imagined.

Happy New Year everyone!
Thanks for all the great content!

Really great year, but nothing will top 2017.
Zelda, Horizon & Nier Automata all in the space of a week & then you had arguably the greatest JRPG ever with Persona 5 in April.

13/20.

Not too bad considering pushsquare is an Xbox fan site😂

@ralphdibny Beat me to it😂!

Merry Christmas Everyone 🎄 !

Not much gaming for me this weekend. Maybe a few games of FIFA with my brother after the gift exchange.

Maybe some Just Dance as well. That’s kind of an Xmas tradition in our household 😅.

Happy holidays everyone!

@JeongersGaming Yeah as much as it pains me both Zack & Aerith will die- as it doesn’t make any sense within FF7 lore if they don’t.
I’m just wondering how they’re going to pull it off.

I feel like everyone that does die will die. The road taken might be different, but it still leads to the same place.
Aetith’s death is one of the most iconic scenes in video game history. Why would you not try to recreate that?

@Czar_Khastik Very good😂.You win the internet today.

Tbf It’s good to see that Street Fighter is still relevant & shaping peoples minds.

However who is looking up Gardevoir porn? A subsection of Mum enthusiast?

Tbf this is the kind of wrap-up that keeps me up at night.

Don’t ask why but I looked up the vita/3DS numbers for 2022 & it was just 0.8% compared to 2023s 1.6%!!!
That’s some ‘hard growth’ right there😂.

I do ask myself why though🤣?

Sigh. Why did I read the comments.

That’s a surprisingly low number actually, given that it launched on Extra & Gamepass day 1 & was available on all platforms.
At least everyone involved is probably set for life.

@Ainu20 @Marquez Thanks guys!

@Ainu20 Guess I’ll do some sleuthing. Probably would be the episode after that Karl Jobst video was posted.

@ItsBritneyB_tch Once? TLOU:P2 came out 3 1/2 years ago.
Most AAA games come take 5-6 years to come out. Your comment reads like they haven’t put out a new game in a decade & just been remastering/remaking.

I love Insomniac & they’re output is insane, but they’re really still just a step behind ND (or a half step). Spider-Man 2 just about cracked 90mc & their first game to ever do that.

@Marquez I only listen to them maybe once a month if something interesting happened. Did they address it at all?
I tuned in a couple of weeks after the allegations happened & there was no mention. Makes sense as they’re genuine friends.

@NotSoCryptic While all the money has been accounted for, it has just been sitting there for years & years (I think 10?), while he has been continuously drumming up donations.
So hasn’t technically broken the law, but something shady definitely went down.
Just based on interest accrued & inflation the 600k from then is not the same today.

Speculation Over the years he’s had some very expensive projects which helped grow his YouTube personality & ‘fandom’. I’ve wondered before where the money comes from especially before he blew up & grew his patreon & channel. I would not be surprised if the charity money helped ‘float’ him over & once he ‘made it’ returned that money. Again pure speculation, but that’s the cynic in me.

GOW:R Valhalla some efootball24 & I’d like to make some more progress in Final Fantasy IX.
I don’t know what it is with FF9, but outside of Tetra Master it hasn’t really grabbed me. It’s just Ok.

@Bolverkr Why? Trophy completion %?
Valhalla is available from the main menu.
Don’t have to beat the game, but it’s spoiler heavy.

I’m only 2hours in, but I’m surprised at how much story there seems to be. Really good but of content & it’s free.

I’ve missed Mimir😂.

Done. Now where’s my Hobno…DAMMIT Sammy! Every time.

@Sakai Would not surprise me if these numbers are accurate.
We get numbers for Spain & there the Xbox family of consoles sold 1K in Spain for November(750X, 250S).
Meanwhile the PS5 did 15K & Switch did ~12.5k.

I know from experience that Xbox is beyond saving in Europe.

Probably worth remembering that a small team was working on TLOU Online & it had been down to skeleton crew for the last few months.
The main team have been busy working on something else.

Isn’t this exactly what everyone wanted?

I don’t see why they couldn’t have made the game, support it for 5 years or so and then drop it.
Not every game has to live forever.

Not bad.
Strangers of Paradise, Metal: Hellsinger & Mega Man 11 for me.

1483 hours played across 33 games.
Top games:
efootball24- 404hours
Yu-Gi-Oh Legacy of the Duelist- 139hours
Dragon Quest XI S- 128hours
Skyrim- 126hours
AC Odyssey- 114hours

Playing style: The GOAT😂.
8 platinums earned- personal best despite playing the least number of games in probably a decade.

Also I’m sure the playtime tracking is off. I started efootball in February & have players with over 600appearances (Valverde & Tchouameni). Average game-time is 10mins which would put it at well over 1000hours (which seems about right lol).

Never made sense for all theses games battling it out for attention in the space of a few days & fuelling the fanboy wars.

They should consider scaling it back to what it was. Invite indies & AA studios to promote their games/concept to big publishers & investors. Could even invite some journalists to spotlight some of these games.
Just don’t call it E3 & keep fans out of it. That way the ESA could actually ‘serve’ the industry.

The games is probably late 2027? That’s a whole lot of time from now & the gaming landscape could be very different.

Sony might have allowed for a version game pass by then, MS could be on the verge of dropping out of the hardware space or going 3rd party- especially if the sales continue to fall or Marvel could’ve mandated a multiplat release like MLB did.
A lot of ‘could’- so who knows?

I’m just going to assume it’s exclusive.

Just watched the clip & thought it pretty funny. Obviously scripted with Judge being ‘played off’ as soon as he started talking.

People need to lighten up.

Going to be checking out the new update in efootball24 and back to Final Fantasy IX.
I’ve put 10 hours into it so far but I reckon at least 6 of them have been spent playing Tetra Master😂.

@LifeGirl I feel the same way. Time & place. It just that members & thousands of devs signed this open letter.
Wondered if it was addressed or not. Guess not.

I didn’t watch it, but was there any mention of the Israel/Palestine conflict?
There was an open letter sent out by the Future Class members demanding acknowledgment.

Lose-lose situation.

What can he do though? No one tunes in for the awards & the ads make the show happen. Also can’t have the show running for too long either.
Maybe the publishers/voting committee could fund part of the show to allow for less ads & more time for speeches.

The best wrap up will always be Mr T at the WWE HOF. He spent 30mins+ thanking his mother at which point the WWE just hit Kane’s music & got him to wrap it up😂.

Was planning to stay up, but fell asleep. Don’t regret it one bit lol.
Some good announcements, but nothing I had to watch live to see it.

Perfection 🤩.

I know the starting roster won’t be anywhere close to BT3 (~150), but I’d be be happy with ~70 across all DB media.
Most importantly though we need transformation customisation. SSJ should feel different to SSJ3- it shouldn’t just be a skin.

Ok that’s pretty cool. Well done SEGA.
Finally get to play Golden Axe.

Wish they had just called it World 2, but I’m looking forward to it.

@nookie_egg Again he said that at a GT event when comparing GT2(?) with GT Sport.
He ain’t wrong though. I’m sure the overwhelming majority would rather play EAFC24 then FIFA94.

So this is how Sony gets out of having to be at the game awards.
‘’Sorry Geoff. Scheduling conflicts. We’re going to get hammered at Jimbo’s farewell party.’’

As someone that plays efootball religiously this is a welcome addition.

I bet this will be a test bed for Master League. Konami said ML was part of the roadmap for 2023, but now that seems unlikely.
Reckon they’re still trying to figure out how to monetise it- beyond it already being a paid add-on/dlc, as it will likely cut into the online player base.

Happy 500!
Probably just some efootball24 & AC odyssey.

OK, this looks absolutely brilliant😂.

@Octane oh hey 👋! Mm was hiring from the community- think there was an article about it here. So some of the people were specifically hired, because of their expertise in dreams.
I’m sure budget cuts was part of it, but I reckon a good chunk of people were let go due to the elimination of their job role.

@Art_Vandelay Absolutely. Love VR. I wouldn’t want a larger experience in that anyways. Resi7 for 10 hours or so was a perfect experience. Skyrim I switched back to flatscreen after a while😅.

@Optimus Unfortunately gaming & players expectations have changed. Gamers want as much as possible for as little as possible.
Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune is a 8-10 hour game. People would not be there for that at launch for full price like in 2007.

I’d love to go back to that time, but it’s not happening. It’s worse than ever with subscription models & F2P games devaluing premier games.

‘’Kept you waiting’.

Only have MGS4 left to play. So I’ll be all over this.

Mm is more of a prestige studio (bafta winner) so them getting shut down is unlikely.

They probably scaled up with how long Dreams has been supported/developed for & unfortunately that didn’t work out.
Sucks for those getting let go, but Mm should get back to basics & start putting out actual games again- rather than a platform.

In a perfect world Mm start putting out ‘smaller’ more experimental games every 2-3 years, while the others work on the massive blockbuster’s that take 6-7 years.

AC Odyssey & some efootball24.
Might start Alan Wake Remastered if I get the time.

Credit where credits due. Bandai have supported FighterZ & Xenoverse 2 incredibly well.

Now give me a origin Dragon Ball story!

Don’t like to get political, but these guys are sure doing a great job at targeting the wrong audience & getting everyone against them.

Should’ve been David Alaba.

He actually helped design the Real Madrid home kit for this season.

I’m pretty close to the platinum in Sea of Stars, so mostly that.

I reckon it was always closer to remaster than remake anyways especially by todays standards.

This might also be a way to ease fans concerns about what they would change in a remake.
Doubt Lollipop Chainsaw would go down well in 2024. Completely different times now 🤷‍♂️.

Guitar Hero died while it was on as many platforms as they could manage.
There’s little chance that a ‘revival’ would try to limit the player pool by making it a console exclusive.
