I had almost forgotten about this a bit, which shouldn't happen. Man, the next few months are full of games. The first episode of LiS2 arrives in one week.

Pretty much the same as with GTA V, then.

#34: Sooo uuuuh...

Brad's out of the picture now? I mean that was really fitting and all, but damn! Birdcough!

Yeah, it'd be rough to play it now. Kyle played its sequel just a week or two ago, so that gives you the idea. Though this first one is much better in practically every way. Slicker and smoother, kinda. More memorable environments and villains, boss battles.

The voice acting and many of the specific lines (together with Stan Lee's) in Neversoft's Spider-Man are etched on my mind, I can hear them whenever I please. I really feel like that game was one of my watershed moments in gaming, being 12-13 around that time. (Maybe even in molding me into me in bigger picture.) I was so in love with it, unlocked everything and found all the comics etc. The black Symbiote Suit was definitely my favourite with its unlimited webbing. And that first bank heist level, I've no idea how many times I played it, just toying with the enemies every possible way. Everything was just so damn fine in this game back in the PS1 era, The presentation, like stated above.

Really would've liked to see the guys play that VR Marvel game, hopefully it stays on the schedule for the future. The beat 'em ups were still cool, too, especially the first one between Brad, Huber and Blood.

Sony follows the suit: https://blog.eu.playstation.com/2018/09/19/introducing-the-playstation-classic-with-20-pre-installed-games/

"Almost 25 years ago, the original PlayStation was introduced to the world. Developed by then Sony Computer Entertainment, it was the first home console in video game history to ship 100 million units worldwide, offering consumers a chance to play games with real-time 3D rendered graphics for the first time in their own homes.

Today, we are so excited to announce that we are bringing back the original PlayStation experience in a new miniaturised version – PlayStation Classic! The console will come preloaded with 20 classic titles, including fan-favourites such as Final Fantasy VII, Jumping Flash, R4 Ridge Racer Type 4, Tekken 3 and Wild Arms."

Let's see how this does. I'm not on board yet, much depends on the 20 games themselves, of course. Which they could've revealed all right away, to be honest.

Loved that one kill from Jones. "...and that's the list." :D

In a shocking turn of events, the Desire Index is now dead.
