upcoming games & movies

Anyone heard anything about the new crazy taxi or streets of rage yet? When is it getting released?
Dunno about Streets of Rage, but I heard the new Crazy Taxi and Jet Set Radio are gonna be 2025 at the earliest.
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle....

... a horrible...HORRIBLE name. Just add the word "Jerk" at the end of the title and start shuddering.
Even worse than 'The Dial of Destiny'. It really screams adventure and excitement doesn't it? A dial and a circle. Brilliant.
 


Also, since SEGA is reviving their other titles, I am looking forward to the new Shinobi game. I doubt they will revive Shenmue through this new initiative, but one can dream.

sounds like furiosa is a good movie. i plan to watch it in the cinema.

ign gave it 10/10 and empire gave it 5/5

 
assassins creed shadows, trailer.


The Assassins Creed franchise has always been the drizzling shits in terms of lore, story and gameplay. However, this game looks incredible in terms of the potential story it could tell. Biggest concerns will be the gameplay itself and the way they choose to execute the story. Looking forward to seeing what develops.

personally, i was a big fan of the ps3 era assassins creed games, when it felt like the over all story was going somewhere but once they killed off desmond i lost interest.. but having said that, done right, a japanese open world game could be good.
 
Best looking game in the franchise outside of True Colors. October 2024 release date.

 
Disc generation appears to be on its last legs with the Xbox Series X introducing an all digital model

I might actually want to get the Sonic Generations rerelease just for the Shadow stuff. But may wait for some time since it’s apparently even shorter. I remember borrowing the original for a week and still feeling like I was sort of hopped for how long Sonic games typically are.

I am a big fan of Mafia 1 and 2 and Mafia games taking place in Sicily in the early 1900s could be a fun ride.

It is too early to judge of course. The teaser does not show anything substantial.


 
The Good: looks a bit like Sleeping Dogs & Sifu.

The Bad: looks a bit like Wanted Dead, Ninja Gaiden & WET.


 
Just a few things I’m looking forward to..

Movie - the naked gun (in keeping with the previous naked gun movies, the intro of this trailer where Liam Liam Neeson character is a hero, is most probably just a dream lol)


Movie - warfare


Movie - superman


Tv show - andor season 2


Tv show - South Park season 27


Game - doom dark ages
 
I’d like to say I’m looking forward to more games since the Nintendo Direct, but with the prices for the games without the tariffs even apparently being considered yet, I have to set my foot down and say no more to this company I’ve more or less supported my whole life, unfortunately. It’s too bad, the one game exclusive to Switch 2 I’d love to play being the first 3D Donkey Kong since 64, but I’ll have to settle for watching someone else play it or wait for other means to become viable. Also hoping the Daemon X Machina sequel comes to PC eventually as the first one did.

Glad at least MP4 is still going to be on Switch 1, know it won’t have the sort of awkward looking mouse controls but hoping gyro is still a thing. I still have many other titles to get, Echoes of Wisdom, Xenoblade X rerelease, probably a couple others in the past year not coming to mind at the moment.

I did recently join a Steam family thing with some friends and so all of a sudden I’ve got all these new games to play…well, not all new, but new to me to try. Already had fun with Yasuke Simulator, beat Shadow Generations, have Earth Defense Force 6 right now. Got them in a list on Steam here, let’s see…Baldur’s Gate 3, never finished Bastion, Black Mesa, never beat Catherine either, both Doom 2016 and Eternal, Dragon’s Dogma 2(though still have the first to finish already), maybe I’ll try Morrowind, finished Fallout New Vegas once before but never got a chance to try the DLCs so I’m excited for that, maybe I’ll give the FF7 remake sequel a shot, Fran Bow, this hole digging game, A hat in time, Indika though I’ve kind of spoiled it for myself, Lost Judgement, Yakuza 8, Majima pirate game, Metaphor whatsit, Paradise Killer, Persona 3 and 4 remasters, Pheonix Wright trilogy, Psychonauts games, Sleeping Dogs remaster, Sonic CD, Supreme Commander 2 I might try to finish, Tales of Berseria and Vesperia, get to finish Tomb Raider Underworld, Transistor, Ultrakill, Space Marine 2, Yooka-Laylee, Zone of the Enders 2 remaster. Probably more I’ve missed but man that’s a ton that will take me some time I’m sure.

I’ve got lots of games to play (switch/ps5/xbox gamepass), so for me there is no point buying a switch 2 at launch.

The new Donkey kong look good but I’m interested to see what the new super Mario game is going to be. The one game the switch 2 is getting which I want to play is legends of Zelda Windwalker. I played it on the GameCube but gave up on it..so it would be nice to complete the game.
