There is exactly one game I'm excited to see released and everytime I see a vid I get more hyped.

This is really old, but the moment in Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People where you have a puzzle involving ruining Coach Z and Bubs' battle of the bands act by switching the music to make Coach Z dance in different directions than the intended choreography and accidentally do a dance move called "Roll with the Punches" all over Bubs' face was absolutely hilarious, even though to get there you had to know what was coming

They should make another one of those. Hell, I'd settle for a remaster with an actual ending.

i bought Tekken 7 a couple days ago (its on sale 85% off) and just beat the story mode. i am disappointed that after giving me a button prompt to throw young kazuya off the cliff in the prologue, they didn't give me one to throw heihachi off the cliff into the lava at the end.

also the nameless reporter narrator guy has some of the absolute worst voice acting i have ever heard in my life. holy hell.

It's going to be difficult for Tekken 8 to top T7's roster. that game has one of the best rosters of any fighting game ever. The biggest issue with T7 though is that unless you have friends to play against, the game basically has zero interesting content outside of competitive play.

The best Tekken ending is the one where all the old characters discuss how they can keep going on in Tekken.

This also contains my favorite Tekkenism where everyone in this video is speaking their own language but everyone can understand each other just fine.

I do really like how most of the fighters in Tekken speak in their native language. I don't think any other fighting games do that.

I like that Kuma took a soul searching trip to live in the forest as a bear to reconnect with his primal instincts to improve his bear karate because Heihachi told him to.

I was thinking about how tekken is maybe the one fighting game series where my mains have changed over time instead of staying loyal to the same couple characters forever (kid - hwoarang/teens - asuka/adult - leo)

I will be in my 30s for tekken 8 so it is possible I'll need to switch to heihachi or dr bosconovitch

Kiryu and/or ichiban would loving blow my mind, I'm shocked harada and nagoshi haven't already teamed up on this.

Maybe we'll even get yagami now that his psycho talent agent croaked.

Wasn't the gameplay in Anthem pretty solid, the problem was lack of content? If they reskinned Anthem and redid it as a singleplayer game you aren't supposed to play forever, couldn't that be quite good?

That was part of the rumor that claimed this game existed in the first place and was going to be made by Motive after they finish Dead Space, so seems very likely

it was serviceable in the sense that it controlled fine and otherwise worked as expected, but it's really nothing a typical AAA studio couldn't cobble together in a few months on their own

the actual combat loop of anthem was like ME:A but with linear progression and narcoleptic powers, which is exactly as tedious and unfulfilling as it sounds

the literal only kinda neat feature of the game was flight, which might be the only legacy it passes on now that it's slowly sliding further and further into obscurity

The one thing about Anthem that stuck out to me as really well done was how well the suits animated during flight. They looked really really good, lots of great little animations for turning, momentum, little boosters activating when appropriate. It really sold the feeling of speed along with the weight of these mech suits.

That's about all that I can think of that was especially good about the game. Even the actual feeling of controlling the suits in flight could be pretty bad, depending on your control setup. I hated the flight controls on kb/m for example, though with a controller I thought they felt great.

the one thing that stood out to me from the demo or beta or whatever was popping the shields on an elite enemy, doing some hp damage to it, and then watching its shields recharge to full during my reload

The thing that stood out to me in the demo was going in as a group of three and some fire giant or whatever knocked us down and it bugged and we got to stay on our knees forever until we turned it off and tried again

The second thing that stood out was some trigger not working and restarting a third time
