Personally I hope more companies than one realize "8 hour beat em ups that play wonderfully" is an achievable ideal! Because I love games like that and wish more were made

Me too. Beat-em-ups are by far my favorite game genre. The shovel knight team has floated the idea of more Double Dragon or of a Battletoads game, so you can let them (and the rights holders) know about your interest.

In my experience if that happens it means you don't actually need any more sleep you lazy bum and you can go ahead and just get up and get working on your gaming

Oh, speaking of Kingdom Hearts, there was a great conversation in my local Gamestop the other day. Some guy was asking about Kingdom Hearts Collection or whatever it's called.

Guy: So it collects 1 to 3?
Clerk: No, 3 isn't out yet, it collects 1 to 2.
Guy: So it's 2 games?
Clerk: No it's 6
Guy: :confused:
Clerk: *deep sigh* Well,
"It's 1, 2, and some prequels and spinoffs."

Done.

Got a key for the DUSK beta. It's so good. If you miss games like Quake 1, you should keep an eye on it. Also, the soundtrack is by the guy who did the sick-rear end music ROTT remake:

It was by Ed Boon and the MK people, but definitely one of my favs from them. Would love to see a new beat-em-up from WayForward too though.

That would rule.

One of my personal "wishful thinking" games for a while has been an FF game that's made by Platinum and set in a world like FF1/FF4's, but with a more realistic art style. You could play as a Dragoon, a Red Mage, and maybe a back knight or a black mage who's combos all involve spells coming out of 'em. Comboing Malboros and dragons in the face, stylin' on Chaos, learning classic FF spells.

Basically a platinum game that looks like this, is what I'm getting at:

But yes, in the aggregate a game with old-ish school Final Fantasy stylings and Platinum gameplay would be incredibly rad if for no other reason than Platinum at least seems to know how to code a decent camera.

Final Fantasy's definitely tried their hand at DMC clones, fighters and that kind of thing before, but it's always been marred by clumsy execution, bad cameras and just the worst visual design.

Dissidia was better than I expected and is still the best simulation I've seen of how fights work in anime where characters kind of wail away at each other with minimal effect until one of them lands their special technique.
