Rival Schools 2 was amazing. I'd be down for a new one.
Funny - remember when the "traditional 2D" took a momentary back seat to "3D" fighters like Virtua Fighter, DoA, etc. and now most games are taking it back to traditional 2D. |

Why do I keep hearing Pokemon GO is worthless in articles if it made so much money already? I am sure, there will be a drop at some point but kids will love this game forever and a day when they keep adding in the other generation of Pokemon.

Actually starting to get really hyped for Final Fantasy XV. Read an interview a while back, where instead of the usual big corpporation non-answers, dude pretty much said "yeah final fantasy has been shit for a while".
I'm paraphrasing, but point is, what I've gotten from everything I've been reading and watching, is that they genuinely want to make a good ff and bring prestige back to the franchise. On a somewhat unrelated note, I really want a console Dissidia. Vita is dead in the water, and ff isn't going to save it. Bring that shit to ps4 sony! |

MMhmm - XV is shaping up to be quite nice indeed.
The demo was entertaining enough to keep me coming back to it. I would also like an Ehrgiez, the Smash before Smash with better characters God Bless The Ring. |

The Elder Scolls movie can be really great. The world is rich in lore to make it have a solid foundation to build on. Soooooooooooooo many great stories they can go with at that.
Cast Patrick Stewart as the Emperor from Oblivion and I'll throw my money at it |

THQ is BACK
OK, Nordic Games just rebranded itself after buying the trademark, but they did buy a lot of old THQ franchises as well as the name and they claim to have 23 products in development. The IPs they have: Quote:

Why would you rename your company to a name that sounds like you're the subsidiary of a dead company?
Especially one that died due to bankruptcy caused by an insane amount of debt and years of financial struggles. |

If they just renamed themselves as "THQ", it wouldn't be so bad.
Or even as "Nordic THQ". But "THQ Nordic" is a strange one to me. |

That's not a parody trailer. They have actually made it. First demo at Gamescom is actually happening. The device is just hooked up to gas cylinders with manual control from booth managers though. I imagine a mixture of hydrogen sulfide and mercaptanes maybe.

They made good games but invested in bad tech/peripherals that didn't pan out. If they stuck with good games they would be in business today. So, good games will help this brand succeed and make people forget about Pictionary/UDraw.
