Games: News & Releases

I only keep an ice thin respect cuz they'll localize Yakuza 5 (and hopefully Yakuza Zero), but besides that, they're still in my shit list (along with EA, Capcom and Konami).

Four different ways to beat the mission shown at E3 this year in MGSV: TPP





There was going to be two other ways shown on how to beat this mission too, but Kojima decided not to record them because he wanted to let the players figure it out.

I was already at an unbelievable hyped level for this game, now I am somewhere even higher after watching this. September 1st can't get here any faster!



Oh, and this actually happened.

President of Nintendo, Satoru Iwata, has passed away


Wow, this came out of nowhere. Even if I didn't agree with some of his business decisions recently, he still did some great things for the company before and even as the president and you never want to see something like this happen to someone, especially at such a young age. RIP Iwata

Very sad news.

"On my business card, I am a corporate president. In my mind, I am a game developer. But in my heart, I am a gamer.” - Satoru Iwata

I'll be honest: after the N64 days, I stopped giving two damns about Nintendo. I always considered them a vapid shadow of what they used to be in their NES/SNES days. Lukewarm consoles, narrow minded vision about 3rd party developers, focused on very niche groups... you name it. Anyways, the sudden death of Nintendo's president might bring some sort of shock in the gaming industry.

I did not expect it AT ALL, came out as a shocking and very sad news to me!

I'd like to point out that besides being a gamer and passionate about what he was doing, he was also one of the few japanese people to take care into speaking in english during the Nintendo directs, even if it was mostly phonetical, I always thought this was a subtle hint of him really trying his best to reaching out to us gamers, rathan than simply speaking in japanese and have translated subtitles, I really hope I'm not the only one who paid attention to that.

R.I.P Iwata

That's my $100 pledged for Shenmue 3. See you all in the credits

Speaking of Shenmue 3, its Kickstarter campaign finally ended with the all new record of 6 333 295 $ pledged for a game project on Kickstarter!

Now hoping SEGA will get their heads out of their arses and propose a HD compilation of Shenmue 1 & 2 before the third game ever get finished.

Yu Suzuki said Sega are looking into it, but they wanted the amount of fans who pledged to be over a certain amount first.

oh they are now? I missed that news!

If Sega truly wants to stop being a shit company and are actually sorry about betraying their fans and want to regain their trust again like they said in a statement last week, an HD collection of the first two games to help out the best designer that company has ever had getting recognition on his big game and forward would be a fantastic start, especially since its an episodic-based series where you need to play the other games to understand whats going on the newest one.

"This isn't Sonic! WE NEED MORE SONIC!"

Team Yu had a Facebook post up at one point asking for fans to make another account and pledge a dollar each to artificially bump it up so that Sega would be satisfied, but the post was removed.

Their sorry asses if they don't. They talk about gaining lost trust from fans, but if they keep doing dick moves like that (in spite of 6 million dollars worth of VOTES!), they'll just go to the fuck list along with Capcom, EA and Konami.

They have answered to the many reactions about the Famitsu interview, insisting that they will do the necessary to become a loved and trusted brand again!

It's also interesting to note something that wasn't talked much about, Haruki Satomi is the SEGA Games division CEO since April and the grandson of the current SEGA CEO Hajime Satomi who expressed earlier how SEGA betrayed their fans trust.

Konami once again being a shit-tier company. News about what a toxic environment the workplace in that company leaks.

I will say this once again, Fuck Konami.

Oh dear.

..

Looks like Eurogamer won't be invited to Konami's slot machine revivals anymore.

Ha! Very good.

My boss is at Gamescom, I told him to plaster Kojima's name everywhere. Looks like someone beat him to it.

Welp, MGSV spoilers have leaked onto the Internet. I will take my leave. Farewell until I beat the game.

King of Fighters 14 got announced today. Looks like it's following the style that SF4 set

(And LOL at the XB1 players who don't get to play it )
