I get where you're coming from as far as lack of originality and not wanting gaming to pull a Hollywood where they start remaking EVERYTHING. I just see enough brand new stuff that interests me not to be bothered. As a movie buff who usually prefers the originals, I can understand the general sentiment.

Also, Yakuza Kiwami was the most recent remake I played and by all accounts it is genuinely just a better game in all aspects than the original Yakuza. 

Dying Light is another interesting one I need to play the original of. KHIII did look good, but is the 3-in-one package Sony showed off basically the trilogy (would buy) or ... The naming conventions in that series are so damn weird. Wtf does 2.8 final chapter prologue mean? DMC5 looks fun. I'll have to download that free copy of Ninja Theory's DmC, though I know that was a spinoff. 

I've never gotten into Elder Scrolls and as someone who never played a lot of these games when they came out, I don't mind the remakes/remasters. My view is those are for people like me and people who played the originals can just ignore them. I don't like the "here's a title card" thing either though. Something about people saying Nintendo "won" E3 with Metroid Prime 4 being hinted at irked me. Like sure, it's cool it's coming, but you don't even know what it looks like. 

I liked the first Monkey Ball and wish they'd put a Monkey Ball game in the Yakuza arcades, since they already have the character toys in the crane games. Can't say that series is something I've thought about much since though. 

Update: Tunic is XBOX exclusive and I also think Ori looks cool. Sessions looks good and I miss skateboarding games, but I mainly miss their soundtracks and don't love a lot of modern top 40, so XBOX has more exclusives that appeal to me than I thought/remembered, but still no real system sellers. 

That sucks, man. 

Love the riffs. Always prefer metal with melody. I know I've heard this band's 80s stuff and dug it, but can't remember song names. 

Is that a picture of Prince near the end of the last video?

That's not necessarily where I'd go with it. They're good people for the most part, some things just need to change as far as communication within that department. 

I'd love to say it's "game time," but I've got to find a way to shrink any potential gaps in my resume first. 

I just want certs to sell myself better, honestly. But I want those skills to transfer to air-conditioned, seated environments. 

I need to learn coding. 

I'm sticking with Sony this gen for exclusives, but will look at MS soon if they don't upgrade other services. 

GamePass is certainly leagues upon leagues above PS Now. I know you meant more than that, but that's one point of comparison Xbox wins without question. 

Ghosts absolutely looks derivative, but I've not played many AC or similar games and the setting is interesting enough to hook me in.
