They may as well just delay the Switch's launch to make it a launch game, if these rumors are true.

Persona 5 delayed to April.

Persona 5 delayed to April.

Apparently they had to fight pretty hard to get dual audio in the game while simultaneously working pretty hard on the English dub not sucking.

I know; it still sucks though.

There is some weird shit with the Assassin's Creed 2 remaster.

The top picture here is the original, not the remaster. The bottom is the remaster.

 

[Hailey Knight]

Ubisoft gonna Ubisoft.

 

[GasBandit]

Hahahahahaha WHAAAAT

 

[ThatNickGuy]

Let's be honest. It's not the WORST face we've seen in an Assassin's Creed game.

 

[CynicismKills]

It looks like they rebuilt the game in fucking Poser.

 

[GasBandit]

My guess is, they're still having to build assets within the performance constraints of console, so maybe some textures and models are getting better at the cost of other, less important ones getting worse. A little hard to tell though with all the egregious Depth of Field blurring.

HD remaster just means smear Vaseline over everything so you can't see how ugly it is.

I had thought the exact same thing.

Ubisoft: "The internet says Konami does bad remasters. We til they get a load of me."

Oh man, I had completely forgotten about that fresco.

Ha ha ha, nope, it's just a shitty job, turns out... you should see the ridiculous climbing animation ragdolling.

 

[PatrThom]

Decisions were made.
Some of them were not good ones.

I'm pretty sure Ubisoft once had an old gypsy woman rub their face and whisper "shittier"

 

[bhamv3]

This is obviously some strange usage of the word "remaster" that we hadn't previously been aware of.

Maybe they're just spelling it without the A and with too few S's?

--Patrick

 

[bhamv3]

Remstersss?

 

[PatrThom]

Remstersss?

That's even fewer A's.

[bhamv3]

Rematera?

 

[Gruebeard]

Arsemaster?

You know, I'm just gonna go ahead and rate your post appropriately.

I was thinking "reamasster," but yours is good, too.

Nintendo Land will soon be a reality.

 

[figmentPez]

A Legend of Zelda themed escape room is going to start touring the country. If this wasn't likely to be expensive and difficult to get tickets for, I'd love to try. It sounds like a ton of fun.

 

[Frank]

I will pay all the money to play a game as Guillermo Del Toro, or a tentacle monster Mads Mikkelson.

 

[Hailey Knight]

I really don't like being hyped for a game we've seen zero gameplay for, but I can't help be excited for Death Stranding.

Even Kojima's failures are at least interesting. I'll take that any day.
