The RE4 remake just feels so unnecessary.  It has aged far better than 2 or 3, because of the control scheme and plethora HD updates it has had over the years.  Not to mention they skipped right over Code Veronica, and if there is a game in the series that needs an update it's that!

I agree Code Veronica should have come first, but I'm not gonna say no to a RE4 Remake.

Samurai Warriors 5 for Xbox One/S/X

It's a welcome return to the classic style of gameplay with a crap-ton of extra characters, unlockables, and modes.

That's the Cowabunga Collection, not Shredder's Revenge.  I'm not seeing any listing of the latter.

Oops

Any link to Amazon getting it as well? I'm only finding the Limited Run notification. Which... great. I'm glad I'll have a physical option. I guess this would also confirm that PS5 isn't getting a version of it either which I guess we don't really have to worry about graphics comparisons on this one so.... lol

Yeah, I have it pre-ordered for Xbox. No real release date on it, though, just an end-of-year placeholder:

Finally managed to snag a PS5.  My wallet is in the other room bawling.

No more purchases until July.

Congrats! Enjoy!

Turn A Gundam 6-Disc Collection 1 up for sale.

It is an ex-library copy, but it's also cheap:

The Halo series looks great, but man I'm struggling with the story and the lack of action. I'm gonna finish it since there's only 1 episode left, I'm midway episode 9. But give me some Spartan vs Covenant battles!

Tried to beat the original Ninja Turtles on NES again...got to the underground battle against the Technodrome.

Farther than I ever made it, which was Metalhead.

I've owned this game since I was 6 or 7, I'm 39 next month and I still can't beat it...I'm a terrible gamer.

Shovel Knight is one I should have mentioned.

Yeah, we had expansions starring other characters, and they were neat and all. But the original Shovel Knight was the best. And I want an all-new adventure instead of retreading slightly different but familiar areas. I need more 2D platforming excellence!
