Apparently, fans being resistant to change (new characters being introduced, the status quo being changed, etc.) has been a concept/issue/problem for a really long time. I was reading some older issues of the Fantastic Four, and I came across the letters section, where a reader refers to the first appearance of the Silver Surfer and Galactus as "pure trash", and says that the first appearance of the Black Panther is "just as bad" as the Galactus issues. (at least another issue in the same section is more positive about the Black Panther)

I probably could have pointed to the outcry that brought Sherlock Holmes back from the dead, but that seems different, considering that it's the main character of the story getting killed off - in this case, the letter was complaining about new characters being introduced.

I also like the idea of Kratos slowly warming up to Hilda as along the journey to finding her and Twig a way back home, she begins to remind him of his daughter Calliope and remembering the humanity in him if there was any way to atone for his past sins. Also growing warm of how close of friends Atreus is becoming with Hilda through the story.

Pitch, no elevator this time: On a trip to NEW YORK CITY the MYSTERY INC. crew solve a mystery where the culprit ends up being a REAL GHOST and meet the city’s infamous gang of heroes, THE REAL GHOSTBUSTERS. Both gangs get along well, except for Velma. She knows ghosts aren’t real. These men are obviously scam artists! And when she teams up with the infamous WALTER PECK to prove their fakery she accidentally unleashes a much bigger mystery to solve! Will the gang ever forgive her? And will the long arm of the law?

It's release was in 2003. I miss this, but it's former developers migrated to develop Fork Lore. Each soundtrack in game of Chaos Legion were the most engaging and resonated with my lifestyle from the PS2 era. Of course, it remained me of an inspiration to Final Fantasy.

This is one of my favorite soundtracks from this game.

Haven't tried that one yet. Been wanting to play a rom hack for awhile. Just downloaded it now.

It’s pretty fun as a first playthrough and honestly so can replays because there’s so many cool changes to Pokémon and updates to the game itself that first time you won’t see them all.

I’ve beaten it a few times but now I’m trying to Nuzlocke it for fun.

Z25 Z25 Wario Bros. Wario Bros. I feel you two may be able to help. I tried updating my launcher so I could play the new Xenoverse expansion, but it wouldn't complete the update and it said "Can't check for updates now, try again in a few minutes or check your connection" or something like that. What do I do?

The only think I could think is maybe go to the website and redownload the launcher. Give it a separate name so you still have the first launcher, and then see if the second updates, let’s you play and keeps your saved file. I think it should keep your file saved to your computer but I’m not positive if that’s how the launcher works so getting a spare and seeing if it updates would be worth a shot

The Nairo case was a can of worms.

Now people are trying to platform ZeRo and Ally again, and I'm like... why?

It’s also not even the first time it’s happened. He’s been black on Supergirl for the past 6 years.

Well, well, Fighting Ex Layer Another Dash is due for it's availability today. The nostalgia of it all for this title in relation to the Street Fighter Ex Series, which produced former Capcom employees, particularity the vital selection that took part in the existence of Street Fighter 2.

I do wonder, if anyone here is interested or have been a follower of Arika's work?

Curious...are you casual or competitive? Either a pad or arcade stick would suffice for me personally, but of course I'm using the former for traditional fighting games such as this.

Hmmm....I would like to test the exceptional prowess from what I've observed from this generation, though, I'm indiscriminate on who I add to my account or who I face, as long as the ping is decent between us. My check will be at the ready next week, to purchase this.

Regarding the disc release for the film.

On one hand I really want to grab it right away, but on the other hand...I want to wait out in case for an eventual announcement of an extended cut...

Why do smaller games never go for Xbox when they go multiplat? I don’t get it.

I'm lacking the knowledge of that as well. Though, I would have liked to have tried the recent Killer Instinct, which is an Xbox Exclusive, because I haven't been involved with the series since the 1990s.

Well it is on PC as well so there is that. And there’s a chance it could be coming to Switch (and I hope to god it does)! I love KI.

I'm debating whether or not to keep Mortal Kombat 11, because of the size being too big, which I'm kind of lazy and paranoid to buy and switch SD cards when the mood spikes me.

I guess if I did, I could re-download Blazblue, Guilty Gear, Chaos Code, and the rest.

Guilty Gear still holds dear to me. I'll remember having my first tournament with this game in 2004 (2005?). I was more effective with the whole cast, but I've chosen Sol at the time to see if I could win that event. I've finished in 2nd place, where my opponent was too a Sol player. I'll never forget the grueling session and the expression he had of me when he was sweating alot.
