Blue Wisp

Haven't watched it myself, but I saw a picture of the cockpits...

...so there you go.

What is wrong with Japan.

The heck!? Source?

Considering this is the franchise that brought us 'No More Russians'... why am I not surprised.

That's interesting, hopefully it leads to less cover based play and more aggressive playstyles.

Mind giving a sum up of details on BO4?

No campaign. There'll be story missions regarding the Specialists ala Battlefield 4's story missions. 

Multiplayer will be boots on the ground, Specialists will return. No regenerating health, you have to manually cure yourself. 

Zombies is back with a new story and three maps. One set in Ancient Rome, one in the faux-Titanic and one with the Origins Crew set in Alcatraz, a remake of Mob of the Dead.

Eh, I really don't know how to feel about this one. WW2 was my first jump into the series proper since like... BO1 I think. In that time I only dabbled in certain modes for an hour each and just didn't find that same spark in any of them. Hell, the story became the leading reason to me even looking at these games. WW2 was able to get me back into every mode and I feel like that was honestly due to it's more simplistic nature this time around. It took a lot from the earlier CoDs and I liked it for that.

Now BO4 is throwing all that out with the kitchen sink again. Though, I can't even say I hated what I saw honestly.

Sure, I still think it's fucking ridiculous that they're taking out the campaign (honestly if I don't buy it that will probably be the biggest reason why). I also am just always going to prefer classic CoD multiplayer to... whatever this is. Though, I'm not gonna lie, that new zombie mode looks fun and if there was ever a way to get me into the battle royal craze, it's with that polished, fast paced CoD gamplay tbh.

I also have to acknowledge how dedicated they seem to be to the PC market this time around.

It's a toss up for me at this point. I'll keep an eye on it I guess.

No campaign really fucking blows. It's the main reason I started playing Call of Duty. 

Zombies looks interesting, a bit Dead Space-y, but it's really cool.

And the Mob of the Dead remake yes I like.

And Multiplayer I don't give two shits about so yeah.

Neither about the Battle Royale.

And anytime you play as Peppy there he'll sound like he's been possesed by one instead of his ususal self

"Give in. This is not sacrifice… it is evolution."

STAR FOX TEAM

ADMIT

DEFEAT

I need to play assault

@Chili Dawg it's my favourite star fox game

But even by being my favorite I can't say it's the best or even a good game. It's short and the on foot missions can be a bit... awkward.

But the Arwing sections ungh so good I love them.

And I love the Aparoids.

And the voice actors themselves are a joy to my ears. Some deliveries are again awkward but it's... Charming I guess?

It's worth giving a try. I won't say ITS THE BEST GAME EVER because I'm biased. I love it too dearly.

"Blake and Yang would be free of charge, allowing players to enjoy Team RWBY at no additional cost"

whoops nevermind I should've read everything first before complaining

my bad

I find it weird that the only new characters in this game are going to be completely free yet the characters that they have the sprites, animations, frame data, etc. for already are going to be paid for.

Why are you always late finding out about shit

Why are you always late finding out about shit

I can't into journalism man don't hate me Josh

SSMB is my only source of gaming news because I stopped reading the journalist sites and news things. 

Ssmb literally when it first was announced was flinging shit at this lol.

im dumb and slow i knows i knows stop bullying me brother 😭😭😭😭😭

Ragna has pretty interesting conversations in this game

...Cept with Hazama despite being...you know the main antagonist of the series

mistakes were made 

damn man I wish this game released for the Xbone. Damn Microsoft and your denial of japanese games

it hurts me that the switch is getting this out of all.

To be fair the X-Box doesn't do well at all in Japan to the point where people just avoid it completely.

I mean yeah its supposed to be made with Westerners in mind but they'd rather not touch something that isn't going to be selling well in their own country.

And he beat the other Six Heroes to the punch by being the first one in it

The irony is that Jubei was announced as CF DLC when BBTAG was announced

As long as Hakumen is in I'm fine with the rest of the Six Heroes being skipped.

Jubei stands unrivaled against them.

WHOA YEAAAH~

"Its been nine years..."

Oh yeah, I forgot we had gamecube emus already. Hopefully we get to that point with the switch soon too (although i'd probably buy another one just to be safe).

I'm not up to date with Switch homebrew but considering the Switch used SD Cards for some baffling reason...

I remember reading someplace that Starfox is pretty much their chosen franchise for experimenting on shit and always has been. Can't remember the source though so don't quote me on that.

re: fun games/motion controls/innovation

1. it could be fun

2. it probably wouldn't have motion controls especially since this is the Switch we're talking about

3. nothing about this seems particularly innovative; it's a standard racing spin-off that happens to be bringing back the style of Diddy Kong Racing that to this day has an extremely well-regarded story mode

wouldn't have star fox in the first place if nobody bothered to innovate

like i get not wanting a series you like to turn into something radically different (i am a sonic fan i live and breathe that shit), but let's maybe not throw the baby out with the bathwater

Maybe it's not innovation itself I have a problem with.

It's where innovation is used. 

I just want a standard on-rail shooter Star Fox game like 64 or half of Assault. Bayonetta 2 had a fantastic Arwing section. Why does Bayonetta 2 feel like a better Star Fox game than well modern Star Fox?

Sonic the Hedgehog?

That guy has it easy.

@SupahBerry As mishandled as Star Fox is, none of his games have reviewed as badly as the worst Sonic games have, and he's gotten nowhere near as many mediocre games.

Maybe so. But Star Fox has nowhere near as many games, period. But it's still a rather bumpy looking francise when you look at it:

- A near finished SNES sequel gets shafted at the last minute to make way for 64 (Though that was justified)

- Rare's once promising swan song: Dinosaur Planet, had Fox shoved into it because Shiggy wanted to Fulfill his Furry Fan-Fic Fantasies (Not really)

- Miyamoto joked about canceling the series if SF643D didn't sell

- They dragged Platnium in to help work on a Waggle-fest

So yeah, maybe it's more fair than the worst Sonic had gone through, but it still strange to see this happen to SF, out of any other lower-deck Nintendo Ips.
