ā€œAs you might remember, TENGO PROJECT’S first ever title was ā€œOmega Fiveā€ (it’s backwards compatible!), which was an Xbox title.ā€

ā€œWith the release of ā€œKiKi KaiKai: Mystery of the Black Mantleā€ (Pocky and Rocky Reshrined), it is our first Xbox title in 15 yearsā€

ā€œWe’ll do our best to support Xbox going forward. We look forward to your support!ā€

Played and finished it in 2009 after you could install discs to HDD. Had to boil disc 4 in hot water to remove some production residue, lol. Was worth it, one of the best JRPGs on Xbox. I recently started a second playthrough to get the last achievement for collecting all trash treasure.

If you now think about how insane that TGA nomination for Bungie is.

I think Alex will turn out to be right. If Sony takes over, Bungie will solely be making Service games. Sony is not necessarily known for creative freedom.

Even without Sony fully taking over Bungie, do we expect something else outside of GaaS by Bungie ?

Yeah, sadly that Bungie seems to be gone anyway.

I played the game before installing was a thing or at least before I knew about it

I loved the game but the absolute worst thing about it was the horrendous load times getting into a battle, I only got like half way through the game because of it

Then years later I started again but installed all the discs, reduced the load times massively and made the game so much better, I imagine it’s even better now playing on Series S/X

Love to see it. Looking forward to that and Shadow of The Ninja next year! Speaking of Ninja, hopefully Ninja Warriors finally makes it’s way to Xbox.

Oh it absolutely is. I think it was 20-30 seconds on 360 from DVD and now its basically instant. Makes it a different game.

This is why we can’t have nice things… I’ve long said that if the media actually used their platform to educate gamers on the process of game dev (you know… like every other industry’s journalists are able to do - the vast majority of game journalists are the equivalent of having someone write only about cars… while knowing nothing about cars), there would be a lot less of this. Again, in my direct example, I can’t recall the last time a car expo was cancelled due to this nonsense… it’s not like the Porsche elite stormed the cons when the company decided to move almost exclusively to turbo chargers (that was a big deal back in 2013… but still no cons cancelled due to death threats).

Instead, most of them just love to lob grenades at all targets and then play victim when people provide pushback
