  • it’s a mentality a lot of Japanese publishers share, especially Capcom. They’ll continue to produce what they feel are “safe bets” as far as games that sell and tend to ignore “fan favorites”.

    The problem is Square firmly hooked their horse to the Final Fantasy cart and that cart has been in sore need of repair for awhile. I mean hell even FFXIV Dawntrail was…eh not their greatest expansion.

    The sad thing is Square has some great IPs that they haven’t touched in decades. Brave Fencer Mushasi, Parasite Eve, Bushido Blade, The Bouncer, Chrono Trigger, Breath of Fire, Secret of Mana, Front Mission, Tobal. They could even make a new FFTactics that isn’t just another re-release of either FFT Advance or the regular one which is all they seem to do.

    And then on top of all that remember years and years ago they bought Enix and what did they do with that? nothing other than pumping out Dragon Quest and Tomb Raider games. Remember Enix also had some great IPs too like ActRaiser, Grandia, and Star Ocean.

    They have all these fan favorite IPs but if the Title doesn’t have Final, Kingdom, Raider, or Quest in it they’re not interested and surprise surprise the fans are tired boss.














  • and all of what? 2 airlines? maybe 3 or 4 internet providers with dedicated lines while the rest have to use Rogers.

    I mean hell it’s obvious Canada has a competition problem and the liberals, cons, ndp have zero desire to do anything about it. We even have a competition bureau that gets so little funding all they can afford to do is issue reports and studies.

    It’s going to get to a point where they’ll rename Parliament Hill to “Roger’s Parliament Hill” or rename Nathan Philips Square to “Bell Centre Square”.

    But this shouldn’t surprise anyone. The government of Canada hasn’t given two flying fucks about the people LIVING in Canada for literal decades. It’s just one massive dog and pony show to line their own pockets.






  • oh it was great. I used to try and get in the magazine by drawing on the envelopes and mailing them in. EGM and I think GamePro used to have artwork that people mailed in.

    Also prior to the Internet this was THE way to get cheats for games. every time a new issue came out I always checked the back to see if there were cheats for a game I just got.
