And about FF15, I saw a remark elsewhere to the effect: “What better way to celebrate a game’s 10th anniversary than by releasing it”. Oh, SquareEnix… oh Japan…

I LOLed.

@Lusi and Ashes: I share your general woe for current gen systems.

@Ashes3000: Sadly, your predictions are all-too-likely to come true.

There are good things on the PS4, but nothing for which I would drop everything and buy the system. The one truly jaw-dropping title in my estimation (Axiom Verge) is available on other platforms.

Bloodborne is reportedly very good, but Destiny has shat the bed pretty comprehensively.

Tembo the BadAss Elephant is out and I haven’t had a chance to play that yet. Maybe it will restore my faith in the current generation of consoles.

I have yet to purchase final fantasy XIII and won’t untill it drops to less than 10 bucks used on the grounds that it’s not what I want to see from SE despite still being an ok game. Seems I will actually have a good reason not to purchase ff XV at all. Thanks for saving me money Square! Maybe you will pull off the impossible and make me skip on the VII remake too! Things are looking good so far and hey if Kingdom Hearts 3 is aweful maybe I can skip the PS4 altogether!

I saw this thing on Dualshockers where the developers of XV went on what appeared to be an adventure tour of various locales. That was infinitely more enjoyable than what I played in the Duscae demo. What you didn't see is that they ended the tour by watching Thelma and Louise over and over again.

Love me some Dragon Ball Z. Glad to see it back after all these years. Apparently I am not alone in that, if box office returns are any indication. Shame anime as a whole doesn’t get more of a shot in US theatres. But I imagine if more US sorts were into anime we’d have to undergo an #OtakuGate to protect the market from SJWs.

Perhaps Thelma and Louise is a metaphor for the development of Final Fantasy XV.

@SN: With the developers driving off a cliff in their stupid car.

Final Fantasy XV will hopefully end like Thelma and Louise.
