I'm not opposed to an Alex Kidd revival

Well that got me curious. I tried for a long time to get Werewolf tabletop games going in High School. Spent way too much on reference books and never got more than two sessions out of a group. My brother was very into the Vampire game around the same time.

Last I heard about the property was the news that White Wolf imploded in on itself after publishing some racist idiocy in a few sourcebooks. The parent company cleaned house and I guess they license the property out now. (Which led to the wrestler once known as Gangrel in WWF to officially buy the trademark on the name)

That appears to be the correct Optimus Prime to get me interested in this title. Graphics are a tad underwhelming, but the multiple battles all happening at once implies maybe a strategy game of some sort? I'm intrigued.

I think the cast in Volcano High are supposed to be dinosaurs.

Demon's Souls remake! Now just release it on PC so I can actually play it.

Bloodborne is also coming to the PS5, and is rumored to be coming to PC as well, eventually.

I think the cast in Volcano High are supposed to be dinosaurs.

I've heard others say that as well now. "High School dinosaurs just prior to the asteroid hitting" it seems.

I wish they were more specific about it.  It's giving me indie VN vibes, but there's no gameplay footage.

[Pak-Man]

I skipped the PS4, but after all the games I missed out on, I may just have to side with Sony as my Nintendo-supplement this gen.

What's backwards comparability looking like? Will I get to play all the games I missed last gen?

*Gran Turismo returns.

*is intrigued*
