    Gonna be on the lookout for that Onimusha 2 remaster trailer that ends with the on-screen text "Available Today" 🙏 bonus points for "Free for PS+ members"

    [PS Plus Members Only] Buy 2 PS5 Accessories and Save 20% on a $100+ Purchase at PlayStation Direct

    Ahh damn. The 20% off is only on the accessories, as the fine print says.. no getting 20% off a PS5 Pro by bundling it with two accessories.

    Crow Country @ $16. I've been watching that one since before its release and was hoping for a bigger discount, but might cave. The demo was fun. A nice indie take on PS1-era survival horror.

    Yes yes yes yes. I've been wanting that Onimusha 2 remaster ever since I finished the remaster of the first one a couple of years ago. Googled it every once in a while to see if it was going to happen, and the consensus seemed to be that the Onimusha 1 remaster sold too poorly for it to happen...

    Yup, I've tried other ports, and other systems on that port, and other TVs entirely. Also the plug-in order stuff. All these debugging steps of swapping out a piece of hardware or a cable, or unplugging everything and plugging it all in in a new order - some combination of these things has...

    Could be, maybe (HDMI cables). I've tried more cables than I can remember. Still strange that I've never run into this issue with PS5/PS4/Xbox One/Xbox 360 despite pulling from the same bag of cables. People say the Switch dock can get wonky if you plug things in in the wrong order as well...

    I've had so much trouble getting my Switch to work in docked mode that I rarely play it anymore. If I decide I want to play a game on it, I know there's a 90+% chance I'll have to spend 15 minutes fiddling with it to get it to show up on the TV without flickering black, so I don't even bother...

    Great deal, I'd strongly recommend it. I held off on the pixel remasters for a long time because I figured the difference wouldn't be that big over the originals to warrant the price, but it's totally worth it for the QoL improvements alone (with the new VFX and multiple languages being a huge...

    Flashbacks to that time someone on Twitter posted photos of Kojima's farewell party from Konami, and then Konami put out a statement saying he was just on vacation and denied knowing anything about the party.. lol

    If you're serious, probably doable in a few years if you spend a few hours per day studying and practicing. As a kid, I went from writing my first HTML (the website's surprisingly still up) in 2000 to my first C++ game in 2003, just three years, so anything is possible... :)

    Regarding that programming games bundle that was mentioned earlier - Shenzhen I/O is a hell of a game if you're into its very very VERY specific niche: Assembly programming and wiring up low-level electronics/IoT devices (think Arduino Uno and the like). Good way to learn and practice both, as...

    Vita was a beeaast. No handheld felt as comfortable to play as the Vita Slim IMO, perfect shape and lightweight. Outdated today, but super impressive hardware for 2012. My dream is that, one day, Sony builds a new smartphone-handheld hybrid with a fold-out controller, much like they did with...

    I haven't heard of any of these, but at a super-quick glance, most of them look interesting. Trying to decide... Has anyone played any of em and would recommend them?

    My thoughts after trying out some Indie games as a lifelong AAA game consumer

    Solid list. I thought I played a lot of indie games but I've only played a few of these, lol. Sea of Stars: I agree, didn't turn out to be my cup of tea either. I love JRPGs and I love the art style, so I really liked it at the surface, but I couldn't manage to get pulled into it. Small...

    Pretty much. I enjoy reading people's personal Top 10 lists, like Frisky's. Good succinct descriptions of what people liked about a certain game. That's helpful for me in finding recommendations on what I might want to play. Professional journalists, on the other hand - I get a vibe that most...

    Palworld @ $22.49, can't recommend it enough. I've been playing this with my wife and son and it's a lot of fun. Take the gameplay loop of multiplayer Minecraft (the base-building + survival aspects, not the lego art) and add Pokemon and woo it's Palworld.

    Final Fantasy VII $4.79 on Steam https://store.steampowered.com/app/39140/FINAL_FANTASY_VII/ Like Final Fantasy IX, the mod scene is pretty wild for this one. You can transform the graphics quite a bit, and there's even a mod that adds voice acting to the entire game. Mod installer...
