I just mean when there's a Zelda puzzle I can't figure out and I go, "oh, you can press up and B at the same time to do THAT. Well, I would have had this solved ages ago." But the focus on boring menus, which is a side effect of everything wanting to have "RPG elements" is something I am 100% with you on. Make the upgrades action moves and let me play the damn game. It reminds me of people who wanted to adjust every last stat before playing a round of Madden. 

I've heard the same. I wonder why.

That's newer than I was thinking, but I guess I haven't yet fully accepted it's been a decade since 2008.

I've never played a GoW, but yeah, all this talk of them slowing down the action isn't making me excited for the newer one. 

There are definitely a lot of button combinations I never try in video games the video games themselves will assume I've been practicing all along.

BG&E: Still need to play my copy, but frustrating stealth is a turn-off.

Yakuza 6 allows you to switch to first person and I didn't even think how that was weird for a Japanese-made game.

Matt hazard sounds like an older title?

I'm hoping they port Yakuza 3-5 to PS4. I don't need Kiwami versions of those, but I don't want to buy a PS3 just for the older games ... which I'm not sure I have the impulse control not to do. 

1. I might be interested in an official Genesis, if they actually keep up the supply to meet demand, unlike Nintendo. But as someone who missed out on Dreamcast games, I really just want to play stuff like Jet Set Radio/Future, Space Channel 5, Power Stone, etc. that I'm really interested in but missed out on. 

2. The comparisons to Yakuza and the fact much of their creative teams are shared is what makes me interested in Shenmue as well. 

3. A new what now?

You been playing VF5 in Yakuza 6?

We went to Lufkin to see it, so I'd imagine the Magnolia or Angelika have it in Dallas if it's still playing. 

I need to put more pressure on myself to write. I think I have enough money saved up I can take an actual break from working this summer, so I'll see if I can't pump something out. 

Wonder what the world dies thing is in reference to here ... could be so many things. Iran deal? I don't know. 

Minit sounds interesting and I like short games. 

Cool. 

I haven't had much time to game this week either, what with all the grading and such. 

I hope you are doing well. 

I really liked Deadpool as well, but I'm pretty sure I also failed the last battle before returning it to Red Box. Short, but sweet game.
