I don't know if they've set a date for Catherine: Full Body, but you can mimic the experience by watching old episodes of the Red Shoe Diary's, slamming your head against a wall and having a friend call you stupid.

Are you joking? Supposedly Sony is integrating that shit into PS5....that's the rumor.

No I'm serious. If you aren't going to get huge visual gains over Pro and One X then do something that would be worthwhile and give a notably different experience. I like the idea of VR, I just want it integrated from the start and not as some expensive add on. If they can surpass the resolution of the Rift on PC to get rid of the low res look and it's cheap enough, I'd be interested.

Hmmm, Nintendo is hosting a Benelux tournament for Splatoon2. Interesting idea and open to players of all levels...  BUT you need a full team of 4 to participate Sad Poo to that.

I've started seeing people in Splatoon called "GGHero". My fame is spreading. I have a billion videos of me being the last survivor on Salmon Run whilst everyone else is dead. If only I could mash them all together and put them in one long video.

SE Underestimated Huge Octopath Traveler Demand Square Enix Issues Apology

Amazon USA and Japan have sold out of Octopath Traveler It's on back order with a long wait

Apparently it's sold twice as much as Bravely Defaults opening sales. Square has resorted to asking for people to buy the digital version. My copy arrived today Grinning As did this:

Yet whilst searching for this image I came across........... the following:

Marina is hot.  There, I said it.

As for the 'hook' of next gen, I'm thinking the platform holders could make a good case for next gen on CPU alone.  "IT'S FULLY 4K" doesn't really speak to the imagination, and games already look so good that it'll be hard for people to tell.  But if they can show us scenes with huge armies, densely populated cities or believeable AI, I think that will make more of an impression.

”Square Enix has decided that it wants to focus on original titles for the Switch. If Octopath Traveler does well and this is something that appeals to fans, we want to focus on Switch. Please pick up the Switch if you want to play games like Octopath Traveler.
- Producer Tommy Asano

Also this story is hilarious:

Van Damme was “coked out of his mind” during filming of Street Fighter movie, says director​ - he kept trying to Sonic Boom everyone

Everyone remember Band Aid right?

I buy all Switch games digitally...I can't be bothered with that tiny ass cart awkwardly going into the top of the unit. Though, the only game I have right now is Mario Odyssey. LOL

it is a hassle. I wish they could have come up with something more user friendly than that horrible fiddly lid. Still, I prefer physical media and didn't want to shell out for a huge micro SD card, so fiddly cards it is.

I prefer physical media formats for my games as well as other things like movies, music, and books.

I ordered a copy of Octopath Traveller on Friday through Best Buy here in Canada and my game will be here tomorrow.

This is the best description of a game I've ever read and I've never even played Catherine.

I actually like the game, but I stand by this description 100%. It's easily the most frustrating game I played last generation from both a gameplay and sexual level.

I prefer physical media bit for a portable the convenience of digital is tempting. Problem is some of these games like RE Revelations are 25gb so huge micro SD cards aren't really an option. I like the cart slot on switch. As someone who had a tablet without a protective card cover I actually lost 2 microsdcards because the tablet would randomly pop them out if you put any pressure on it. The tiny size of the cards made them impossible to find too. With switch the physical carts were the best and only option. Even a large storage capacity would still have you emptying the fridge for new games. Discs wouldn't work. Sdcards are expensive for the larger capacities.

If you have lost micro SD cards, than that's due to a badly designed slot.  I've had a couple of tablets with slots without a cover, and you really need to push the microSD in pretty far for it to spring out.  Nintendo usually is pretty good with hardware, they could have made a decent slot without the stupid lid.
