Honestly? Square-Enix would do well to put the series to rest already, and leave people with fine memories instead of sour experiences.

that's not very far away, and it sounds like they have good reasons to delay it. i'd prefer a game that releases in a finished state, than one that feels bad and has to be fixed post-release with patches.

Releasing half-finished games is THE in thing to do so far this gen. Tongue

On the plus side Persona 5 pre-orders skyrocketed in Japan. Went from around 20th to 2nd.

I spotted a boxed Atari 2600 and a boxed Commodore (not sure which one) in a charity shop yesterday.
They won't sell them in-store because they're putting them on eBay instead. Sad

There are not one, but two Atari 2600s in my town that are both loose and priced over $70.

One's a light sixer, the other was a four switch. I sold boxed models of every 2600 but the Junior and only had my minty Vader break $70.

Not always!

Just almost no reason to worry about it now. It sells no copies and you kill it. It sells a ton of copies and you debate fixing it or moving on to the next project if the fix is not cost effective.

Win win!... For everyone but the consumer.

True story - at a game store yesterday evening, I witnessed Andrew Wiggins asking the clerk if they had Mario Kart Double Dash.

They didn't. Sad

Nice guy, though.

I decided to record myself playing Gran Turismo 3.
I was using PCSX2 and my keyboard.

What could've been...

This looks butter smooth, and aside from a few spots where it seems to dip to N64-level graphical quality for a moment, and a couple spots where enemy heads were missing with floating hats, and whatnot, this looks like it would have been a sweet deal.  I wonder if there's any chance this has been or will be dumped somewhere so that JTAG'd 360's could play it...

Still, despite the change to the Daniel Craig likeness in the Wii update, it's actually a very good port of the game, and plays like a charm.  A friend bought it a while back and we enjoyed a nice duel match where I kept finding the golden gun and obliterating him.  It was glorious Cheesy
