Video Game General 2: Definitive/Remastered Edition

@The Smiling Pony  
That would be so cool. A remake of a game..within an existing game that’s also its prequel.

So, the Launch Edition of Valkyria Chronicles 4 is on sale for $30, if anyone wants to pull the trigger on getting the game.

@The Smiling Pony  
Maybe.
 
@Lord Goku  
Well, it’s not that bad tbh.
 
@DreamSoda  
A remake/remaster would be cool.

 
Goth Coco, doing goth things.

And the 4* G-rank quests are completed. That leaves 5*, the one with the elder dragons, as well as the high-rank DLC quests, than I’ll have everything cleared before the fight with the G-rank Spiky Dragon.

@PonyPon  
I just watched it. The Handler as Mr. X is what sold me on it.

@The Equestrian Zodiac
 
If I hadn’t already bought it I would buy it again.

@Meanlucario
 
How does EA keep getting away with this?

@Background Pony #1997  
Because most people who are buying the game aren’t in the know.

@Background Pony #1997  
They have an exclusive license to FIFA and other major sports leagues, and people really like their sports fandoms and mythos.

@Meanlucario  
No?
 
People don’t buy sports games because they like how it plays the sport itself, they buy them because they have whatever meathead millionaire is popular that year or whatever team they’re a fan of.

@The Smiling Pony  
In that case, I blame America’s obsession with sports.

@The Smiling Pony  
Or people just likes soccer.

@Meanlucario  
It’s not just the US.
 
@E-123  
If they did, they’d have been buying the good football games, instead of the ones with licensed players and teams.

@The Smiling Pony  
OK, people’s obsession with sports. And what other sport games?

@The Smiling Pony  
Frankly, I’d rather play NES blackbox Soccer, or Megaman Soccer then any EA soccer game personally.

I have no interest whatsoever in sports video games.

@Background Pony #1997  
Me neither, but I do like a few retro ones, (like the NES blackbox games) and Wii Sports & it’s sequel Resort.
 
I know many gamers hate motion controls, but honestly after playing Wii Sports bowling, every other button-based bowling game seem kinda lame in comparison, and just doesn’t capture the momentum, physics, precision, or realistic feel as well as holding that Wii-mote did.
 
I honestly wouldn’t mind a new Wii Sports type of game for Switch, or a more improved sandbox style NintendoLand game with more minigames, unlockables, & depth, but it seems unlikely now. In fact, it seems most Mii games are dead now unfortunately.

@Meanlucario  
The many that’ve existed since the mid-90s with generic fictional teams or that licensed lesser leagues. This stuff has been going on since Madden games in the 8-bit era. I don’t care about sports so I don’t follow them.

Masae Anela is currently doing a LP of Okami. She has even gotten a shout out from the official Okami Twitter page for doing so.

The only sports games I played were Dodgeball and Ice Hockey on the NES.

The only sports games I genuinely liked are NFL Blitz ’99 and NBA Jam for the N64.
