I'm glad that the Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster series is getting another shot in the domestic physical space, but they're still going through with that $74.99 price. https://www.square-enix-games.com/en_US/news/final-fantasy-pixel-remaster

@silver_huskey Definitely hope that's just a one-time thing. Nothing makes the heart skip a beat like a blue screen.

ICYMI I wrote about the experience of attending my first Otakon, during which I had a great time despite a few unfortunate and bittersweet low points, for a @damagecontrolblog post. https://www.dcgameblog.com/2024/08/cognition-dissemination-my-otakon-summer-vacation/

I posted on @damagecontrolblog about my experience with going to Otakon for the first time this year. I had a great time, even if there were some low points. https://www.dcgameblog.com/2024/08/cognition-dissemination-my-otakon-summer-vacation/

One of the wildest aspects of GameStop disappearing Game Informer's archived content in an instant is how they also deleted a bunch of very recent pre-release content for Dragon Age: The Veilguard. It's possible they still had more content to post, too.

It's probably not going to happen (they'll just continue the promotion elsewhere, and it's months away from release), but EA and Bioware should retaliate by threatening to not sell the game at GameStop.

There's nothing like getting a jury summons to sink The Real Post-Otakon/Vacation Blues to a new low. They make sure to send me one on an annual basis, because I guess no one else is answering these.

ICYMI I wrote about how the recent roster announcements for Mortal Kombat 1 have confirmed (konfirmed?) that NetherRealm Studios are the Kings of Guest Kharacters for fighting games, for better and worse, for @damagecontrolblog. https://www.dcgameblog.com/2024/08/fighting-games-friday-the-kings-of-guest-kharacters/

@silver_huskey I'm planning to say that I'm taking this personally. They have crossed the wrong Dio. 😤

ICYMI I wrote about the potential for SAG-AFTRA's striking voice actors to win the deal they need over gaming studios this time, after sadly coming up short the last time around, for a @damagecontrolblog post. https://www.dcgameblog.com/2024/07/cognition-dissemination-will-the-voice-actors-win-this-time/

This is an absolutely brutal set of layoffs at Bungie, even if it was easy to see coming given the current trends and Destiny 2 not retaining as large of a player base. https://www.gamedeveloper.com/business/destiny-developer-bungie-cutting-220-jobs-after-exceeding-financial-safety-margins-

I posted on @damagecontrolblog about whether the SAG-AFTRA voice actors striking against big video game companies have a chance of emerging victorious this time around. https://www.dcgameblog.com/2024/07/cognition-dissemination-will-the-voice-actors-win-this-time/

ICYMI I wrote about the possibilities that Capcom can undertake for Mega Man's future, since they're considering their options, for a @damagecontrolblog post. https://www.dcgameblog.com/2024/07/cognition-dissemination-suggestions-for-mega-mans-future/

I posted on @damagecontrolblog about the future Mega Man games that Capcom could make, since they're still only "considering" how to continue the franchise. https://www.dcgameblog.com/2024/07/cognition-dissemination-suggestions-for-mega-mans-future/

ICYMI I wrote about how the evil old men of fighting games just won't quit, between Heihachi in Tekken 8 and M. Bison in Street Fighter 6, for a @damagecontrolblog post. Maybe another one could come back too. https://www.dcgameblog.com/2024/07/fighting-games-friday-perpetual-country-for-old-men/

I posted on @damagecontrolblog about how the old men of fighting games just won't leave, between Heihachi in Tekken 8 and M. Bison in Street Fighter 6. There could be room for one more in Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves. https://www.dcgameblog.com/2024/07/fighting-games-friday-perpetual-country-for-old-men/

ICYMI The Quarantine Control series on @damagecontrolblog reached the 225th installment, in which both @silver_huskey and I wrote about The Boys' fourth season, while CWTyger recommended "Go on Through" from Afro Celt Sound System. https://www.dcgameblog.com/2024/07/quarantine-control-225-gday-there-system-boys/
