There's news on Leatherface in Mortal Kombat X. His variations are called Killer, Butcher and... Pretty Lady. The Killer variation is classic Leatherface from the first film and involved changing stances. The Butcher variation is remake Leatherface, Thomas Hewitt, and involves Leatherface whacking opponents with a hammer. The Pretty Girl variation is classic Leatherface circa the first Texas Chainsaw Massacre film's later half as he wears the goofy made-up mask and allows Sawyer to chuck his chainsaw as a projectile. So, like Triborg, Leatherface is technically more than one character.

Furries UNITE! *Looks up meaning of that word* Err.. nevermind. Skir should play this, wherever he is these days.  But seriously, Dust is great. For some reason, I thought it was some other game that I tried on the 360 and didn't care for. At all. But it's okay, because this is not that game, and it is fucking awesome! Edit: And the full name is Dust: An Elysian Tail or something like that, in case there are 2 Dust games out there and that's where my confusion comes from. |

The gameplay was good and solid, but that alone wasn't enough to hook me. I can see how others could like it though. |

Well, I like everything. Story, characters, music, and gameplay. Gets pretty deep later on. Not sure how far you got. I'm also playing on Tough for trophy purposes, which lives up to its name. Lol. Wizards suck and I don't know how to kill them, so I just run away. :/

That's when the quests started and I was not interested in investing in that lol. |

Ah. Those aren't that bad, really. A lot of them you'll get what you need, just from going through the levels. I'm 13 hours in, and I've completed at least 20 of them(I think there's only a total of 21, but there are trophies for completing 5, 10, and 20 of them). I'm slow, too, 'cause I'm completing each area even though I don't really need to. ^^' But it's extra money and experience. Both of which I feel I need, so I'm not getting destroyed by enemies. xD

I beat Arkham Knight and what a amazing story. It goes in my favorite superhero games of all time. Now I can focus on beating other games now that I got Mortal Kombat X and Arkham Knight out the way. Of course those games have (Definitely Arkham) has a shitload of side missions and DLC to beat. But that I can take my time with.
Anyone play the Division yet? I am downloading the Beta and can't wait to try it out.

Street Fighter V has apparently been very polarising to say the very least. I'm not sure if I should buy it now. It being exclusive to PS4 is one of the main reasons why I bought the console in the first place, but things aren't looking very bright for this game. There seems to be an extreme lack of single-player content, far less so than almost any fighting game on the market right now. There's no arcade mode, with these tiny story mode chapters being apparently the only replacements until the full story mode is released. The artwork in these story mode prequels is very inconsistent with the game itself, with Ken having a way better hairstyle in the artwork than he does in the game and Laura having a literal paper thin waist in the artwork while having far more realistic proportions in gameplay. I prefer to play solo like a casual scrub since I ironically suck at nearly all online fighting games except for 3rd Strike so this is disappointing. Also, while the characters look and animate well in gameplay, they animate terribly in the short cutscenes of their story prequels. Seeing Birdie's moustache and mouth constantly clipping through his costume is distracting and I hope Capcom fix that in later chapters.
The overall presentation of the hub menus and character select screens just looks so naff and unexciting. I was expecting it to be improved from the beta releases but it wasn't.
I don't mind the minimalistic approach SF5 is taking with its character roster since I know that it takes ages and a lot of money for even one character to be designed and animated (and it's not like MK where a lot of characters share animations), and the DLC system actually looks really cool. I have no problems with any of this. I'm also excited for the full story mode since there are many things to keep me engaged such as the mystery of Ryu still possessing the Satsui no Hado after Gouken imbued him with the Power of Nothingness but it's a bit lame that the whole thing wasn't included from the start.

They released the game before they finished making the story? Ffs, Capcom.. I never buy games at full price, anyways, but you know there will probably be multiple iterations of SFV. I'm gonna wait and buy the next one, probably, like I did with Super Street Fighter IV. I'm terrible online with fighters, too, so it doesn't matter much to me when I play it.

That's the only good thing... Capcom promised that no "Super Hyper Ultra DX Plus Alpha" editions of SF5 will ever be released. Everything will apparently be DLC, since SF5 won't experience an arcade release. As that one YouTuber guy with the hat and the long hair whom I can never remember the name of said, the game should have been delayed so that the product could be finished and refined. Capcom really aren't helping their reputation or what remains of it after the Street Fighter X Tekken debacle. |

Damn it.. I hate DLC. Just as an example of why, Watch_Dogs cost me $10. Probably even a bit less since it was part of a buy 2, get 1 free deal. Checked out that expansion Kain mentioned, and it's $15.. Are they charging extra for the full story?
And yeah, I remember the Street Fighter X Tekken debacle. I finally picked that up recently for the Vita. Has all those DLC characters included, that you would have to pay extra for if you bought it on a different platform.

I love the Street Fighter comics but I am bored and done with the games. Its the same game over and over again with no game modes or interesting DLC. It needs a overhaul or reboot like what Mortal Kombat has done or introduce new things like Soul Caliber.

It needs a overhaul or reboot like what Mortal Kombat has done or introduce new things like Soul Caliber. I've heard about that tie-in comic "The Life and Death(s) of Charlie Nash" and it sounds great. They somehow managed to find a way to reconcile all of Nash's supposed deaths over the Alpha series. Might pick that one up. New things definitely are needed to keep up interest in the series, I agree. Capcom seem to pride themselves on the idea that the Street Fighter series doesn't need to change since it kickstarted the fighting game genre's popularity when it clearly does because the formula is getting quite stale. While some elements of the story for SF5 story are quite interesting as they experiment with new character interactions (Oro meets Dhalsim, Mika meets Ibuki, etc.) and narrative types, the Street Fighter universe remains pretty much as static as a 1950s sitcom. While they haven't entirely run out of ideas, I have a feeling that a reboot of some kind may come soon. The story mode prequels are in some places handled quite badly as they try to cram in up to 4 fights in the space of about 3 minutes. I mean, why would Dhalsim, a pacifist who only fights when it's absolutely necessary, accept fights from random strangers just because? I think that Capcom got so distracted trying to think of ways to make Ryu's dialogue about his fists and the meaning of the fight sound remotely interesting that they forgot how to properly write the rest of their characters. |

You won't have to pay for the DLC of SFV. You can unlock it with the in game currency fight money. I don't think I'll be buying this one until later in the year at least when they've added more stuff that should have been there from the start. Apparently, YOU CAN'T FIGHT THE CPU LIKE IN SF4 AND YOU CAN'T ADD MORE THAN ONE OTHER PERSON TO A LOBBY! While I said that I suck at online fighting games, I love playing casual matches with a bunch of people in lobbies. Thumbs down. |

Ooh, that's neat. Probably will require a massive amount of grinding to unlock, though, I'd imagine. Thought I read somewhere you can't invite people by PSN name, too.
