PS2 Backlog Committee

I figured old man. It was never directed at you . I apologize if it came across that way. Sony is going to do what makes them the most money because capitalism. Vinyl still exists after all so there's clearly room for games to exist physically. Though I think Sony's haphazard announcement was ****ing stupid, shortsighted and anti consumer. But boycotts are principled. I haven't crossed the threshold of a Target in years even before the mass boycott because my local Target treated the community like an op. And Target still exists. Good on you old man for following through, I knew I liked you for a reason!

Bruh. PLAY INFINITE WEALTH!!! Loved that game, it was an all timer for me, likely top 5 gun to my head. It has its issues but the hits are always out of the park. And you will definitely get a kick out of Pirate Yakuza. Just a breezy delight...until that ending. Which is ultimately hopeful and offers closure. I really loved Pirate Yakuza's ending...

I have always wanted a straight up video game musical. They start the game with a musical number. They end it with and even better one during the credits. They rocked out on both. Like 3 more song and dance numbers or rhythm based boss fights would have been the goddamn dream come true...I will have to settle for the opening and closing but we were right there, man...

Just replay Puppeteer crim! I remember you playing the game back in the day, although I can't remember your opinion of it. I just have a hazy memory fragment of discussing the Moon Bear King with you.

It's on my all-time favorites list. While the gameplay was merely serviceable, the presentation and narrative were sublime imho. Really the only game of its kind in my experience.
