Ace Combat 8 is, simply put, tremendous. The feel of the planes is so different from previous entries, and the "always on your back foot" story really hooked me. It's the longest game in the series I think, and that really helps you connect more with your crew. Easily GOTY for me right now.

I've been playing a lot of Ace Combat in advance of 8 releasing, and I had no idea the 3DS game was just a remake of Ace Combat 2. No way I'll be able to finish it before 8 hits, but will be nice to do a few missions here and there when I commute this week.

Had heard about on it on forums, but I’ve run into the issue of a 3DS cart failing. Went to dump my copy of smash bros for 3DS which had worked fine around last year, and the file on cart shows as corrupted. The dump itself is unusable as well, and original hardware can’t even see the cart ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

In this weird gaming funk where I have Fire Emblem sitting right in front of me, but instead I'm playing Ace Combat 4 on my Odin for Retro Achievements.

Checked out the JP pricing for the iPhone Duo and it's an eye-watering 365,000 JPY. I don't care what the exchange rates are, and costs of memory aside, for anyone paid in yen, this shit feels like it costs 4,000 USD. FOH with this.

I am a huge fan of these CD releases that get the sort of vinyl case treatment. I’ve really enjoyed this new GITS season and the OST is exceptional.

Oooof the prices for the LE console and controller. The console is just the JP region locked version and it's 63,000 JPY. The controller w/ stand is 12,000 JPY... I know they'll sell out so FOMO has a grip on my wallet, but this is gonna have to be a hard pass.

I wasn’t necessarily hooked after the Switch 2 reveal but the last few days of KH trailers have been really charming. I think I’m ready to get a little optimistic about it.

Having a great time so far with Beast of Reincarnation. I feel like there's probably a few patches it needs to get on PC, so I might pause for a bit to see if some of the more annoying pop-in and technical hiccups get smoothed out.

Fire Emblem is looking good, but my main takeaway is that the OST is going to be incredible. Already liking what I'm hearing way more than Engage's.

Wow that new Ghost in the Shell is exactly what I'd hoped it would be. Also that guest artist's key art at the end of the ep was incredible. (not gonna spoil who it is, just go find it).

I finished The Adventures of Elliot last night and I have to wonder if the folks who gave it low reviews went through the effort to get the true ending. I left off feeling really satisfied with my 22 hours, and each escalation in the story between the bad, good, and true endings felt great to unlock

I'm not even sure what I can add to the chorus right now, but it sure does feel like this hobby is well and truly cooked on all fronts.

Remember the internet before Google, before algorithmic feeds, before monolithic social media corralled us onto the same handful of apps? When small, *personal websites* and webrings linking them together reigned supreme? Time to bring it back.

I bought this due to the post he’s referencing and I’m ashamed I didn’t get in on this game earlier. It’s sooooooo fun.

Tidus and Zanarkand are coming to Dissidia Duellum on the 30th of June. I had thought maybe they'd bring Yuna into the game first, but Tidus looks really fun to play. Honestly this game continues to be a really good time and I've been playing a few rounds every day since it released.

Oh my Dad was issued a pair these in basic training in the 80’s, they called them BCGs (Birth Control Glasses). Glad to see our proud traditions continuing.

Finished the classic DK challenges. They were pretty easy and I find this approach to “achievements” to be pretty cute (minus the time limited aspect of it). I’ll tackle the Bananza ones a bit later, but I hope they do more of these.

I finally took the time to watch The Boy and the Heron. When it came out originally, my own son had just been born, and it just sort of escaped me. It's an incredibly moving and thoughtful film. I really didn't know what to expect, but it certainly wasn't something this lavish and deliberately paced

Vanillaware on PC is crazy to me. Let's get Dragon's Crown Pro on there asap. FF Resonance looks dope. I'm generally pretty happy with that direct, but boy the predictions vs. reality have got some folks on tilt.

First Light is really top tier. I’m having such a great time in the actual game and the in between stuff feels just as good as any modern Bond film. Lenny James is SO good as Greenway.

Persona 6 leaks? Hmmmm I want to believe. I do like both designs and this close to Sony’s event seems about the right timing for something like this. Let’s see…

I feel like I'm alone on my island in liking the DQ12 protag design. Also these are just the same guy right? Should we just call that shot now?

Spiral Nemesis @riskbreaker.bsky.social · 27/05/2026
Very pleased with how the updated DQ12 looks. I wasn't attached to the old logo/title, so let's goooo! DQ5 themed DQMonsters is neat, but had assumed we were going to see at least one additional remake announced.

Had to sneak a bit of Dragon Quest into my wardrobe (T-shirt, DQX Zoff Glasses) at the office today in honor of the 40th.

Snagged a Helios GITS beer from my local supermarket and decided to crack it open today. Not without a photo shoot though.
Please ignore my dust. Ghost in the shell beer staged with a ghost in the shell glass and two ghost in the shell coasters

While I wasn’t a longtime fan, I did get a chance to see him play at a small theater in Saitama a few years back and it was a great experience. What a loss.

I'm really happy with new FFXIV announcements. I largely dropped off after 7.1 as is normal tradition with the patches, but with the roadmap of announcements, I'm starting to feel the itch to slowly start catching up. As a DRG main, I felt very good about the demos they showed of the new systems.

Spiral Nemesis @riskbreaker.bsky.social · 23/04/2026
Yeah this looks great. Can't wait.

Spiral Nemesis @riskbreaker.bsky.social · 14/04/2026
Another solid character release for Dissidia. Firion is really well designed and I actually appreciate his street look more than his traditional one. I think Rikku and Clive are next up based on the roadmap, but I'm quite curious when we'll start seeing the "Chaos" folks show up.

Those Pragmata scores, especially for a game that was long MIA and thought to be hanging out in the dumpster with Deep Down, have got me very excited to try it out. Seems like it doesn't overstay it's welcome either. You love to see it.

Sometimes choice paralysis has you so frozen you just go play Final Fantasy V instead of engaging with anything else because that's easier.

The rumor of a new Starfox game has got me checking out the Starfox campaign in Starlink. It’s really well done actually… despite being a Ubisoft game from that era there’s a ton of Starfox dialogue and cutscenes. This might just tide me over.

Spiral Nemesis @riskbreaker.bsky.social · 02/04/2026
Biggest surprise for me this year is how fun Dissida Duellum is. It’s not perfect, and really needs a landscape mode and a PC client, but this could have been an absolutely killer “premium” game. Art and OST are well done too. Sad to think this will get killed off like the rest of SE’s mobile fare.

I have to say, I was ready to dump all over the new Dissidia, but as a low impact kind of thing, I enjoyed the few battles I played. Can definitely see me playing a few rounds on the bus. Honestly I think it's the least abrasive gatcha game SE has put out, esp compared to Ever Crisis.

I really want to be further along in Pokopia, but I just keep. playing. Marathon.

Spiral Nemesis @riskbreaker.bsky.social · 07/03/2026
Practice and quali were both really fun to watch, and I hope we’re in for a really weird F1 season. The new cars are pretty fun to watch imo despite some of the complaints I had heard from the drivers.
000
Spiral Nemesis @riskbreaker.bsky.social · 06/03/2026
Other than the original games and thinking the art design looked neat, the new Marathon had not occupied any space in my brain. Jumped in as my first extraction shooter and it sure is overwhelming in and out of the gameplay, but it’s a great time.
