I Am Setsuna launches 19th July for PS4 & PC
No worries! I really want I Am Setsuna to be successful for Square because I'm interested to see what other classic RPGs the Tokyo RPG Factory use for future games

I Am Setsuna launches 19th July for PS4 & PC
The game is available for pre-order on Steam for $40/€40. Fair to say it'll more than likely be that price on PS4 too. Some aren't happy given that the game is digital-only, but I don't mind all that much. As long as the game justifies the price-tag then it's fine. Plenty of other games offer shorter campaigns for far more money, so we'll see.

I Am Setsuna launches 19th July for PS4 & PC
I'm looking forward to it for sure. I've heard the same notes about it being similar to FFX, but I'm hoping that's just the premise and not the entire story

Which Blizzard game have you played the most?
World of Warcraft. While I am currently taking a break from the game, some of my best gaming memories come from my time in Azeroth.

The Football Thread (association football)
Germany are without a doubt the strongest team in the competition, imo.

Who is your favorite character from Finding Nemo?
Oh I still love Finding Nemo. It's a truly amazing film. My dislike for Dory stems largely from Ellen. I just find her voice irritating. Finding Dory is an unnecessary sequel in which I wished Pixar would not have done, but no doubt I'll be there day one to see it. Dory is fine in small doses, having her front and centre is a little bit too much.

3rd party games for Wii U?
I wasn't aware there was any third party games for Wii U. I kid of course. Hmm. Games that spring to mind are Shovel Knight, Shantae, Lego City and Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate. That last one wasn't really for me, but I can see why others would dig it.

Favorite Underrated Games?
Not sure if The Last Story was that underrated, it was definitely overshadowed by Xenoblade Chronicles though. I hope Nintendo do something with that IP for their next system that's for sure. I picked up Pandora's Tower on the Wii U VC, but haven't had a chance to play it yet... Regardless games I can think of off the top of my head (can't speak for their sales though, but I feel not a lot of people got to experience them). Final Fantasy: The 4 Heroes of Light, the game that Bravely Default was spawned from. While the game is far from perfect, it was a solid RPG for the DS I felt. Trailer BoxBoy! From the creator's of Kirby, this game is definitely one that slipped under the radar of a number of people. Reviews for the game are solid and it has received a sequel in Japan (still hoping for it to come here). It is one of the most intriguing puzzle games I've played and one that I'm glad my 3DS has. The game is only $5/€5 as well and for the amount of content on offer it's a steal of a purchase. I cannot recommend this little title enough. Trailer There's a number of games that I can think of that are good, but I'm not sure if they are underrated. If I could use this opportunity to say though, I think Chain of Memories is the most underrated Kingdom Hearts game out there. If I can think of more games I'll edit them in though.

Why does Overwatch not have a story?
When compared to previous Blizzard games, it's easy to be confused as to why it has no story mode. They'd rather just promote the lore in cinematics, comics, etc. rather than doing a single player mode. Their focus for the game is entirely multiplayer based and it's clear they wanted a shooter of their own to be represented in the eSports scene. I do think hope is not entirely lost on a single player mode. The demand for more story is there and if Blizzard have a good idea on how to make such a mode then they'll no doubt look into it. A good example I can think of is Hearthstone, that game launched originally with really only a practice mode for single player, but they then added Adventure Mode to the mix. Overwatch is getting a lot of buzz from the community and the cinematics in particular are getting praised. I'd say hang tight and eventually Blizzard might give a SP mode. Chances are there just isn't one available at launch and they'd rather just not say there is one.

The Football Thread (association football)
It was mixture of disappointment and anger for me last night after the game. The referee was shambolic and I do feel a lot more decisions went against us than for Sevilla. I can see why we had our goal disallowed, but for Sevilla's 3rd goal to be flagged for offside only for the referee to say otherwise was the icing on the cake. If the handball against Firmino wasn't a handball then it still should've been a penalty for the challenge on him. However, when you lose a game it's easy to blame the referee. While we definitely didn't get any bit of luck from him, the team simply didn't show enough passion in that second half. We should've killed the game by half time as Sevilla were very poor. Considering the teams we had to beat to get to the final I'm disappointed that Liverpool didn't try and go for it more. I remember watching highlights from the Champions League final in 2005 yesterday and I could see that team were fighting so much to turn the game around. The Liverpool team yesterday didn't show that same desire. Despite Toure being absolutely solid at the back, our defence let us down (mainly Moreno). It'll be more difficult for us to attract the best players now in the summer with zero European football next season, but that team will be ripped apart. It's not Jurgen Klopp's team. We've been heavily linked with a move for Mario Gotze, but even I have to wonder if he'll join us. On a positive note, we have zero excuses to do poorly in the league next year. I'm proud of how the team played to get to the final and hopefully the experience will do them good. I'm disappointed even now, but I've followed Liverpool long enough to be familiar with the feeling. Regardless YNWA and all that.

What games do you hope appear on Sony's E3 press conference?
Kingdom Hearts and NieR. Oh how I really want NieR to get that type of publicity. Other than that, I hope for surprises and not a lot of VR.

Favorite Kingdom Hearts Soundtrack? (OST)
That's a really tough choice. Each soundtrack has some good songs. Toss up for favourites though, either Kingdom Hearts II, Birth by Sleep, or Chain of Memories. I'll give Chain of Memories the vote cause I feel nobody will pick it haha. Really had a great soundtrack on the GBA. Edit: The HD Remixes definitely improve on both KH1 and KH2's soundtracks so I gotta give praise to them too!

Favourite character to play as?
Aqua for me at the moment is so fun. I've finished her story and I've moved onto Terra now (still have Ventus to play as well). Playing Critical mode and it was infuriating at first, but she gets really good there around Radiant Garden or Disney Town then everything was alright. I forgot how broken Prism Rain is too o.O Can't wait to unlock the Final and Secret Episode that's for sure. Terra is definitely more popular than I thought he'd be! I always found his bosses to be way harder than the others, but he absolutely ruins the small fry in the worlds.

Ideas for the next KH saga
I'd like to see a more well rounded saga. You can see Nomura has more or less made everything up as he's gone along since Chain of Memories. Now that he has said there will be another saga maybe he can plan his story out much better this time. While I'll always respect that Sora will be the main character and that is honestly fine by me, I'd like to see others get maybe a game or two to shine. It's hard to say who I'd like to see as we don't know the outcome of KH3 yet, but I'd love a full game where you play as soley Aqua. 0.2 is a good start, but I'd easily drop money for her own game. Mickey Mouse would even get my vote for a game of his own (or at least a playable segment in a different game). I'm not too fussed on what worlds show up to be honest. I'm certain that Toy Story will be added in KH3, but I as long as Marvel and Star Wars don't show up then I'll be happy. As for characters, I'd love Oswald to show up. Preferably in a role that isn't a shoehorned cameo. For now though, I haven't really thought much about what the next KH saga could bring. Heck, I haven't even really thought much about KH3. Just taking the news as it comes

Pokken Tournament Outsells Street Fighter 5
Pretty surprised by this, I feel the hype around Pokken has severely dropped. I know I haven't played my copy in over a month. It's a good game though so I'm happy to see it has done well. They probably won't release new fighters via DLC at this point, but I hope they might consider a sequel in the future. I'm disappointed in Street Fighter V to be honest. I really wanted to get it and the beta was actually alright, but the lack of single player in comparison to previous games was the reason why I didn't pick it up. Sure it's getting content next month, but it's still not enough imo. I know they said Street Fighter V was only getting one version, so I hope that maybe in a years time the game will have far more content and be hopefully cheaper. I'm in no hurry to pick up the game in its current state. At least Splatoon had single player content and working multiplayer from day one though

The Football Thread (association football)
We had better beat them. Both extremely excited and nervous for tonight's game. Liverpool never make it easy for themselves so it'll be edge of the seat stuff from the first minute. Regardless, YNWA!

Is Overwatch Over Priced?
While it is an FPS, not every hero has guns. Like there's swords, shurikens, grappling hooks, among a bunch of others. Some characters specialise in support so you can heal team members and stuff too. Though I can understand if FPS' aren't your cup of tea, I personally am not very good at them and tend to stay clear, but I gave the Overwatch beta a shot and it was fun. Splatoon is great too! Really interesting take on the shooter genre! I'd love if/when Nintendo make a sequel!

Is Miyamoto a Detriment to Nintendo?
I'd hardly call mirroring the Gamecube version a remake. I'm pretty sure the Wii version came out before the Gamecube one in parts of the world. If a PS4 version of a game has 1080p resolution and an X1 version doesn't, does that mean the PS4 version is a remastered version of the X1 version? No. Twilight Princess on Wii is not a remake of the Gamecube version. Twilight Princess HD is barely a remake either even if it now supports the gamepad, amiibos and HD.

Which is your favorite Pokémon generation?
While I started with Ruby, my favourite gen is II (along with their remakes in Gen IV). Gold/Silver/Crystal are the only Pokémon games which I feel has vastly innovated on the generation that came before it. Since the release of Gen II, I feel Game Freak have taken baby steps when it comes to evolving the series. Even with the Gen IV remakes they had every Pokémon capable of following the trainer which no Pokémon game has done on such a large scale. Day/Night cycle, breeding, 16 gym badges, expanding on the storyline from the previous generation - are just a few examples of why GSC stand out for me. Even HGSS are easily top of my favourite Pokémon games ever because they take GSC and make it gorgeous to look at. Also you think "7.8 too much water" is bad? Can't forget IGNs review of Heart Gold / Soul Silver:
