Extended trailer...with gameplay and Tifa!

I'm loving it...and I'm crushed that it's PS only.

I might need to switch platforms.

I am currently on a third co-op playthrough of one of the Tales of-games (Vesperia on the Switch) so I've opened my eyes to the series and this looks real cool.

Look who is back

[The Dog]

[Lord Falcon]

Between Ramin Djawadi and Bear McCreary. The Rebirth track takes Godzilla's signature theme and turns it into an epic masterpiece in hype.

Watch Dogs: Legion looks pretty awesome!

I really want to see more of R6: Quarantine.

[FistofIron]

Every year I hope that Sleeping Dogs 2 will be announced. Every year I am saddened.

My roommate got mad at me for dissing his former ninjitsu instructor’s technique. I didn’t even know that was his instructor when he was showing me the video I was just judging based off of what was shown.

If your roomie doesn't want critique, he shouldn't show people the teacher's stuff.

But martial arts are like an ego-feeding ground. Start with a skill that involves conflict, romanticized as a 'life or death' thing. So it's considered important. Add a large dollop of ego, mostly male (occasionally female) since this is about 'me better than you', again in that whole 'fighty' situation. Pour on the idea that 'if it's so important, then I need to be learning the best style around, at the best school, from the best of the best teacher' (thank you Hollywood), rather than 'I need to learn something useful/fun/whatever from a school that suits my needs due to proximity, training method, and so forth, whatever those needs might be' (Self-defence? Fitness? Fun? You decide!). For garnish, sprinkle on the teacher-student link, where people with lower self-confidence latch onto the idea that if THEY'RE not the best, their teacher MUST BE, and in so doing feel better about themselves (because they're learning from the bestest).

Stir, let sit, and bake to get a pretty bitter dish.

People don't like it when someone questions a single thing about their style/teacher/training method/school/whatever. After all, for something this important, why would they be learning this, at this school, from this teacher, if they weren't the BEST? Ergo, they must BE the best, and anyone who critiques anything calls the whole thing into question.

I find that cross-training can help with this perspective, but I've also met people who cross-trained who basically exemplify the above with regards to whatever style they happen to be training in at that time.

Me? I figure anything gives me an opportunity to learn something.
