It's a Studio Trigger anime with a cyberpunk setting. That's all I could have asked for, so I'm pretty excited for this.
@nomither6 Anime is basically just any Japanese animation. So there's a huge variety of anime, ranging from family-friendly shows such as Sailor Moon or Studio Ghibli movies, all the way to the more graphic things such as this show.
Sounds like a fairly decent remaster, I'm excited for it. Pac-Man World 2 was the only one I played back in the day, so hopefully that can get a remaster next if this one does well.
I've just started with it, and it's fun so far. The mix of looking after the cutesy animal followers along with battling in the dungeons works rather well.
There'll be some fun announcements, but probably not enough to justify the two hour runtime. I'll either have it on in the background, or just catch up on the highlights afterwards.
Most of this news sounds great, but I am concerned about them adding cities over time. Best case scenario is that we're getting some cool single player expansions. Alternatively, it could mean that the game will feel incomplete at launch, or that the single player and multiplayer could be heavily coupled together.
Persona 2: Eternal Punishment was never sold over here in Europe, so I'd love for them to make it accessible on modern hardware. Similarly, a remake of Persona 3 with the gameplay improvements and extra protagonist of P3P along with the extra story of P3 FES would be great.
Nice to see some Etrian Odyssey representation, with it in 10th place. I do wonder how they could make it for current consoles though. The Nintendo DS and 3DS were perfect for its manual map drawing features due to that bottom touch screen.
Cats are great, but I wasn't going to play this. It seems to be one of those games that get critical acclaim, but where I just don't get the appeal. Maybe I'm missing something about this game.
I'd be happy if the single player is as good as GTA V. But it's been a long time since they've last made a GTA game, they've lost some writers, and then there was all the issues with the trilogy remake.
Even that $20 price seems a bit high due to all the grinding and microtransactions that are involved. I'm in no hurry to pick this up, but might give it a go once it goes on sale.
I had an absolute blast with this game back when it was given away with PS Plus. But with the MTX changes along with how Epic delisted the Steam version, I'm reluctant to get back into it.
There was a heavy focus on the big shooter and horror games, which isn't the stuff I'm normally that interested in. So the event was fairly dull for me.
Studio Trigger can make some brilliant anime. I'm particularly fond of Kill la Kill and Little Witch Academia. This is something that I'll be sure to check out.
So, decent enough and there's nothing majorly wrong with it, but there doesn't seem to be anything particularly amazing about it either. Still, I'd enjoy it, so I might pick it up at some point.
@MickOnYourFace I must have saw the battle pass mentioned on Nintendo Life. The twitter link at the bottom of this article leads to a humble page with a bit more info if you're interested.
Battle pass though. I'd like to see more monster catching games pop up instead of just Pokemon being the main notable game in this genre, but that battle pass makes me very reluctant to try out Temtem.
Those sorts of messy grids detailing the various editions and DLC make me hesitant to purchase this. Spending time trying to figure out the correct way to buy this is hassle.
I wonder how they can proceed with the story after the events of Portal 2, but the writers should be able to come up with something great. The recent Aperture Desk Job had something that would work well with Portal 3.
Might be a cool feature, but it's not an option that I'd ever use. For me, much of the appeal of these kinds of games is that it's your decisions that'll affect who lives and dies.
Remember all those rumours saying the PS5 would be backwards compatible with PS1 and PS2? I'm not going to trust these kinds of rumours until there's an official announcement.

Re: No Quidditch Matches in Hogwarts Legacy, But You Can Still Fly a Broom
That's a bit of a shame, but not a deal-breaker for me. As long as there's a good mix of other side-activities, I'll be happy.
Re: Tour the Hogwarts Legacy Common Rooms, New Gameplay Clips Shared
Those common rooms all look great. We don't often get to see them except for the Gryffindor one, so it nice to get a good look at the others.

That is both creepy and terrifying. I love it.
Re: Hogwarts Legacy Delayed, Launches in February 2023
That's not too surprising. Hopefully it's worth the wait.

Nice to see it reviewing well. That's quite a nice variety of arcade games in it.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 435
As it's hot outside, I'm going to stay indoors and play lots of Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak and Persona 4 Golden.
Re: Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course Passes an Impressive Sales Milestone: One Million Units Sold
Glad it's doing well. I had a blast with it. For people that enjoyed the base game, this expansion is well worth getting.
Re: GTA 6 Needs to Exceed Players' Expectations, Rockstar Admits
I'd be happy if the single player is as good as GTA V. But it's been a long time since they've last made a GTA game, they've lost some writers, and then there was all the issues with the trilogy remake.
Re: Hitman 3's Free Ambrose Island Map Finds Its Target on 26th July
Nice, I've excited to try out that new area. There's quite a lot going on in that trailer, so it should be a fun map to explore.
Re: The Devil in Me Is Classic Hotel Horror, Out for PS5, PS4 This Year
Focusing on man-made traps this time around instead of the usual monsters or the supernatural has sparked my interest.

That's looking fun, it's caught my interest.

Nice, I'd been wanting to try this out. As long as they don't mess up the remake, I'll give it a go.
Re: Inspired by Danganronpa, the Social Thriller Game Inescapable Launches on PS5, PS4 Next Year
That is a lot of inspiration they've taken.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 433
Cuphead and Monster Hunter Rise. Both of them have just received big expansions, that I'm currently having a blast playing through.
And I'm still making my way through Persona 4 Golden, which I'm super enjoying.
Re: Go Behind the Scenes with Insert Coin: The Making of Arcade Paradise
This looks fun. Hopefully the minigames can capture the magic of the old arcade games that they're based on.
Re: Danganronpa S: Ultimate Summer Camp Out for PS4 in July

Re: Pac-Man World Re-Pac Brings the PS1 Platformer Back with PS5, PS4 Remake
I had a lot of fun with Pac-Man World 2 back in the PS2 days, but never got to play the first one. So I'm quite excited for this remake.
Re: Mini Review: Fall Guys (PS5) - Free-to-Play and Still a Blast Despite MTX Meddling
I had an absolute blast with this game back when it was given away with PS Plus. But with the MTX changes along with how Epic delisted the Steam version, I'm reluctant to get back into it.
Re: PS Store Mid-Year Deals Sale Includes 600+ PS5, PS4 Game Discounts
Yakuza Remastered Collection is 60% off. That'll keep me busy for a while.

Would be cool if they made it available on modern hardware. The game looks fun, and I'd be up for giving it a try.
Re: Test Your PlayStation General Knowledge - Issue 11
4/15. The Simpsons one was the only one I knew for certain, and I didn't do well with the guesses.
Re: Soul Hackers 2 New Trailer Debuts English Voiceover, Pre-Orders Available Now for PS5, PS4
Atlus doing their standard DLC practices. In that case, I might wait for the base game to be heavily discounted in a sale before getting it.
Re: Poll: Was Summer Game Fest Live a Show to Remember?
There was a heavy focus on the big shooter and horror games, which isn't the stuff I'm normally that interested in. So the event was fairly dull for me.
Re: Cyberpunk 2077's Edgerunners Anime Actually Looks Awesome in Teaser Trailer
Studio Trigger can make some brilliant anime. I'm particularly fond of Kill la Kill and Little Witch Academia. This is something that I'll be sure to check out.
Re: Danganronpa Stans Absolutely Need to Have Yurukill: The Calumniation on Their Radar
I'll definitely give the demo a try. Hope the game's great.
Re: Literally Face Off Against Opponents in Street Fighter 6 with Interactive Versus Screen
Wouldn't a literal face off involve tearing off the opponents face though?
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 429
It's a mix of games from me this weekend, as I'm playing The Stanley Parable, Bioshock 2, and Persona 4 Golden.
Re: Persona-Inspired Action RPG Eternights Announced for PS5, PS4
This certainly has my interest. Hope it turns out good.

Geoff's events never end up being as good as the hype, but that's quite some list. There's bound to be some great announcements featured.
Re: Kao the Kangaroo (PS5) - A Fun But Flawed Platforming Throwback

Re: Test Your PlayStation General Knowledge - Issue 9
9/15, my best score yet on these quizzes.
Re: Embracer Group to Buy Multiple Square Enix Studios and IPs in Huge Acquisition
That price seems oddly low. Embracer Group is a bit of a mystery to me, so I can't tell whether this is a good thing or a bad thing.
Re: Test Your PlayStation General Knowledge - Issue 8
6/15. I only knew two of them, but had some good guesses.
Re: Sony Confirms PS Plus Subscription Stacking Has Been Blocked
Subscription stacking had been acceptable for a long time, so it's not right to suddenly brush it off as a loophole.
It's a poor move on Sony's part. It wouldn't have been such an issue if they'd just announced this ahead of time.
Re: The House of the Dead Remake Coming to PS4, Out Next Week
I'm interested, but it depends on whether the controls are okay on PS4.
