2025 Gaming Year In Review!
This year I *only* played 11 games (separating Suikoden and Lunar games), so it was a very light year, thanks to various real world obligations getting in the way.
This thread is a mini review of what I thought about each one.
If you're a game studio, NOW is the best time to extend two middle fingers to Sweet Baby Inc. and any affiliated/similar "consulting" agencies.
Do exactly the opposite of whatever they tell you to do.
Another woke studio bites the dust!
Bandai Namco has shut down Reflector Entertainment, the creators of "Unknown 9 Awakening", a video game featuring an Indian woman as the main protagonist. Kim Belair, the story architect for Unknown 9, founded Sweet Baby Inc.
The game cost $100-150 million and only made back a fraction of the cost. It flopped horribly, with it hitting only 285 concurrent players at launch.
The studio had ambitions of creating a media "empire" with Unknown 9, with story podcasts, web series, and novels, but there was little to no interest overall.
The game was horrible, with stiff animation, boring combat, clunky stealth, and performance bugs that made it more like a "chore" to play a game. Some players felt the game was more like an unfinished PS3-era demo.
Studio liquidation will cost Bandai Namco an additional $23 million, costing more than the game's gross revenue.

Platinum 67 attained for Final Fantasy Resonance!
This was a wonderful game and both an unexpected and wonderful surprise from Square-Enix. I want much more of this please!
This is what I would want for a Final Fantasy VI remake.

This is evil.
Microsoft has filed a patent for an AI system that could rewrite what people say during livestreams in real time. It could change words depending on who's watching, taking into account their age, location, and language.
The idea is to clean up broadcasts by removing filler words, censoring swearing, or even replacing certain words.
The AI could also adjust the speaker's lip movements so viewers wouldn't notice anything had been changed.

And nothing of value is lost.
Today, after 31 years, we are saddened to announce that Salon is ceasing publication. It has been an extraordinary privilege. salon.com/2026/11/05/goodbye…

As someone who grew up being a loner and keeping distance from people, this episode came at a time in my life when I needed to hear it... It encouraged me to be a lot more open to people.
"You were always welcome!"
Patrick Stewart in the final scene on Star Trek: The Next Generation.
It’s extremely simple, but reveals so much of his character if you watched. Somehow his sense of duty and sensitivity, along with the admiration of his crew shines through.
RIP Captain.

Gotta love how socialism and communism are always so wildly popular in real life that the only way they can win is by stealing elections.
And the gaslighting the left always does to claim the right is a threat is on full display in Brazil.
Same shit, new day.
WTF is happening in Brazil? After Lula stole the election... AGAIN, Bolsonaro is fleeing to the United States.
The Lula regime tried to confiscate his passport, detain him, and possibly put him in prison. Their stock market also dropped 15% following the socialist regime's continued rule.
Also, there was an extremely high chance that Bolsonaro was going to win, but an unexpected extended election and Lula friendly courts, the socialists basically cheated.

Another day, another case of @Sony @PlayStation failing to serve their customers.
Sony has suffered a massive data breach affecting around 2.58 million So-net and plala customers.
Sony Network Communications says hackers accessed its member database on October 19. Leaked information includes:
• Names
• User IDs
• Email addresses
• Other customer information
• 16 bank account records, including account numbers and bank names
The company says it has not found any leaked credit card numbers or expiration dates, and it does not store customers’ bank PINs.
Sony says the affected servers have been shut down and the unauthorized connections blocked, while internet services continue to operate.

WTF is wrong with these clowns?!
They'll drop physical disc media in favor of books? 🤷♂️🤣

Imagine the outrage if I suggested someone have pistols firing at Kamala Harris.
This type of rhetoric is not acceptable in any civilization.
Jennifer Welch should be sued into oblivion for incitement of violence and slander.
This melting wax-faced goblin is demanding that DSA street animals have "pistols firing at all time" towards the Vice President.
We have a communist violence problem in this country.

And this seals the deal. I'm officially blocking updates to my PS5 and waiting for the next jailbreak update.
PS5 owners are now running PC games from Steam directly on the console, without streaming.
A project called Playden uses a Wine-based compatibility layer to run Windows games on jailbroken PS5 consoles.
Games like Cyberpunk 2077, Hollow Knight, Cuphead, Portal 2 and Dead Cells have already been shown running.
Playstation has no limits

Oh no, lol.
I had a love hate with these.
The piano minigame returns in FFVII REVELATION, with even more features and improvements. This time, you can also choose from a variety of instruments beyond just the piano.
