I see Luca Stadium, honestly, which is pretty much in the same design ballpark (pun not intended)

If you think Evangelion was convoluted enough as it is, expect it to get even worse (complimentary)

Yeah, if it's a tenner, go for it, especially if you loved the base game. And especially if you liked Aigis since she's the protagonist for it

There are mixed opinions about it, although I have yet to get round to P3R myself yet

I'd stick with just the base game, see how you feel about it and then decide if you want another 20 hours of it, since the story content you get is an epilogue

Hell yeah Folklore is rad. Just wish Sony weren't leaving it trapped on the PS3

Assuming a hypothetical 2027 (originally planned) release, that is exactly how long every other PS has lasted, roughly 6-7 years, so the cycles aren't getting shorter

Instead, big titles are now taking the length of a console generation to make, so the current gen feels like it's barely started

Xiaoyu has always been my historical Tekken main but I really latched onto Kuni in Tekken 7 so this is the best goddamn news

Sure, let's get reviewers to review the reviewers, but we'll need to confirm they're good reviewers too, so we'll need someone to review the reviewers who are reviewing the reviewers

And so on, obviously

Remember, we're freezing the income tax thresholds to fund this (which benefits the rich that we won't increase tax on)

The thing that frustrated me in that thread was his insistence on never browsing and exclusively relying on reviews to shape your taste

Which I feel is a great way to miss out on the less publicised stuff. Nothing more exciting than stumbling on something in the wild that becomes a new favourite

I mean, it worked on me (and it was worth it!)

The only thing that comes to mind when I hear that name is a Beastie Boys song, so no

There's also zero guarantee it's even a real license number, considering how often AI loves to just make stuff up

What's fascinating about this for me is the fact that he (seemingly) had the forethought to take a picture of his license plate but couldn't rub two brain cells together to go find that picture himself

Customer psychology is legitimately fascinating

(They're right, of course)

Side note, I am especially interested in coverage of the upcoming Tomb Raider remake, so please get in touch if you need someone who knows that series inside out!
