Have yet to see it but damn from all accounts I hope he and Alex Smith got along because Smith will probably be the best person to talk with over the next year of recovery.

I think that was on the Amazon Buy 2 get 1 free sale they got going.
 
Buy 2 get 1 free
 
It is not just limited to games but the stuff that is available as part of the deal is... average.
 

You might have to hold on to that HDD, the PS5 at launch doesn't have options to expand the SSD. You might be able to still run it through the old HDD unless I am mistaken and that is a future update as well.
 
Edit: Honestly best to keep the PS 4 on standby even if you get the PS5 at least for the first few months to avoid any issues that might pop up.

Armageddon's intro was definitely something I watched a lot of back in the day.  There's just so many good moments in it with Stryker's sucker punch and Shang's 'OH SHIT!' face when Zombie Kang shows up.
 
I don't know how I forgot for a moment how Blizzard is usually amazing at setting the tone for their games before you play.
 
More intros that I can think of
 

Read the House/Power of X mini series and then go from there. Even though the trades a little behind I recommend reading all the follow up titles by trade. They’re called Dawn of X. They put all the issues of the follow up titles in chronological order 

November around the 38 yard line is cursed for Redskin QBs. I hope Kyle has  full recovery. I don't pray much but I pray that doesn't have to deal with the complications that Alex did.

Have yet to see it but damn from all accounts I hope he and Alex Smith got along because Smith will probably be the best person to talk with over the next year of recovery.

The audience being uncomfortable as Dave was pushing their buttons was brilliant. "I can't tell the truth without a punchline"

RIP Alex Trebek

RIP Mr. Trebek.

Sheeeitttt, one of the first things that came to mind for me was from the king of cinematics, Blizzard with my beloved Diablo 3....the game is now 8 years old and I still let the intro play sometimes....
 
Another one of my favorite opening sequences ever is also playable, actually--- the GOAT herself, Bayonetta:
Mannn when I first experienced this greatness...

 

Most games don't have intros like that anymore and it's kind of disappointing.  *grabs his cane and sits in his rocking chair* yessirrreeeee...Used to put the game in the console and read the manual while the intro played to further hype me up for playing.  Used to be my ritual for anytime I got a new game.
 
 
Soul Calibur II is def up there for really done intros.  It STILL gets me hype.  If we're talking about intros then gonna throw a few others in there.
 
 
 
 

Taking a break from Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle (which I’ve been writing about in the Switch thread. HINT HINT)  to finally dip my toe into the Yakuza series. 

 
I have the whole Kiryu Saga on PS4 but have never played a Yakuza before. The most experience I have with them is watching an ex I had over 10 years ago who was obsessed with the series.
 
Oh, and watching people from REDACTED post combo videos and promotional trailers. 

If it is Star Wars related and not a path to whining forever on why you hate a particular movie or aspect of the franchise I see no reason why not.

Management.
 
Although their recent issues are only partially on them, Sammy Sega or however the company calls itself has mostly been surviving due to their arcade and game machines. That bitch 'Rona especially in the Asian countries where they know about and partially already did social distancing just about killed them especially in an anniversary year they probably had some live events that had to be scrapped.
 
Edit: But on the IP mismanagement, it seems like they just never found out how to capitalize on their popularity rather it was their overseas success or their local streaks in significant ways. 

I know I was like I get the kid likes other animals but he should be able to tell another sentient species . Kid is obviously spoiled rotten given he apparently will eat anything smaller then him raw. 

it would be nice if other companies bought the IPs --- new-era Altered Beast and Golden Axe would indeed be of interest to me.  A new Space Harrier would be good too.  I'm still bitter that "Planet Harriers" never got a chance because the DC died before it could become a reality.
 
On another note though...
HADES - I unlocked a fist/gauntlet weapon now; forgot what it's called but of course it's awesome.  The fight I just had with Megaera ended in such a cool way ---I remembered that I had "deflect" with the gauntlets, so when she got to the point of spamming energy projectiles.... I defeated her by punching several of them right back to her.  Delicious.
 
Yes, folks...don't resist it.  You need this game in your life.
 

See, that would be the good timeline. The timeline where Silent Hill never died and Bloodborne isn't locked to 30 FPS on a next gen console. 
 
We're in the bad timeline. Riots consume America. Sega is dying. Cell has won the Cell games. Most fighting games STILL don't have rollback. 
 
Shit, we might all already be in Silent Hill right now and not even know it. Endlessly looping in this cycle of suffering until we learn our lesson... 
 

 
 
 

You can't even play PT on PS4. New game or not, they will continue to bury that demo and anything involving it. 

Square Enix and their Western branch that used to be Eidos or Crystal Dynamics always mess themselves with spending too much on the game development so even when the game sells well they still under perform expectations. Same shit happened with EVERY game in the reboot Tomb Raider franchise and I want to say that is why they let the Hitman developers and IP go as well.
 
Also they shot themselves in the foot leading with the game as service media push on a licensed game of all things.
