I have it but haven't felt compelled to play it. I perceived it as a Jean Reno shooty game rather than a cutting-up-demons-with-swords game. I'll have to fire it up soon if it's an argyle fave.

Thanks for the movie reviews, izzy and argyle.

I had thought about taking the grandkids to see Coyote vs. Acme, but then I heard it's more of a (silly) courtroom drama than a traditional Looney Tunes flick that little kids could enjoy, so I'll probalby just watch it myself.

I don't know anything about the series, but I think you should buy it. :P


Ha, it *is* calling to me.



Man, you really need to correct that. They've ported the first, maybe the second as well, to modern consoles I know.


Yep, Onimusha 1 and 2 were given the HD treatment, and 4 (Dawn of ...

Still working on the post-game for Expedition 33 and cleaning up trophies. Mixed reviews on Wolverine, but I still think I'm gonna buy it to play after I finish Expedition 33 - I haven't had any expectations for it, it's just been on my list for something I thought I'd enjoy.

Eh, I didn't play my PS5 extra-hard that week, if it helps any. ;) Any reasons they give are crap to cover their true goal - they get a lot more $$ when you buy digital than when you buy physical, plus if they're all digital then you'll pay whatever they say. No competition. That's the proverbial ...

Glad you haven't yet gone to your eternal reward. Bad time of year to be sick... hope you're feeling better!

Played recently: Titan Quest, Dragon Quest Heroes: The World Tree's Woe and the Blight Below, Dragon Quest Builders

Finished: nothing

Added to backlog: nothing

I was like Goldilocks with the porridge last week. Took three attempts till it was just right.
