I may do this with Nier today

If using the Japanese store want a minor inconvenience that I know if also have to go back to for any dlc, I'd probably just say gently caress it and get Nier that way as well

It's out on Japanese PSN and it apparently had an option to play it in English

I'm happy they finally officially announced the pc release date for Nier and that its only 10 days later. I needed the breathing room to inhale all these good games.

Hard Core Mode is a new difficulty setting for the main “Shantae” mode in Shantae: Half-Genie Hero. This mode is designed to provide an old-school, tough-as-nails challenge to players who miss the days of rage-quitting and throwing controllers.
What to expect in Shantae: Half-Genie Hero HARD CORE MODE:
  • Pain and suffering!
  • Harder hitting enemies!
  • Faster enemy patterns!
  • Faster scroll speeds!
  • Remixed enemy locations, and more of ‘em!
  • New Boss patterns, attacks, and stats!
  • Healing Items capped at six!
  • Re-balanced magic items!
  • Poor Shantae!

I'm very okay with this.

Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


You shouldn't buy the DLC for Inquisition separately, just get it all for ~20bux when the GOTY edition goes on sale.

On the one hand, I want to hold off on getting Zelda since I know it's going to take focus away from Horizon and Nier: Automata.

On the other hand, it's loving Zelda and it looks so good

They didn't have it because the difference between JP and US release is small so they didn't bother. I'll just wait for Tuesday. I bought Madden 98 for the Saturn instead

Woah, they're making a movie based on Sleeping Dogs. I know the developer went kaput but maybe this means they're making another game with a different studio?

Just get Pseudo Saturn working so you don't have to bother with looking for Saturn games.

I don't think I could call in sick to work when i'm not sick.
Worrying about if they bought it, how it reflects on me. would make me regret calling in sick.
They just need to implement work from home and it would be perfect.

This is why I bought Maddwn, it was the cheapest US game so I can do the disc swap. I currently only own JP games

Ah, good luck and good gaming, then. The disc swap poo poo made me super nervous but luckily you only have to do it successfully once.

I would assume the hook to a Sleeping Dogs movie... would be Wei Shen hanging a dude literal hook. Or someone getting impaled on swordfish heads. Or a new version of "Yellow Fever"

Wii U has very slightly worse contrast. That means black isn't quite as black, colors in general are a little dimmer, that kind of thing.

Emphasis on the very slightly, though. It's a miniscule difference that is probably 100% unnoticeable when you also factor in the differences in how TVs show colors. It's something that was much more noticeable in the E3 version but, well, that was nine months ago so clearly it changed.

Is that the only difference?
