So how was your 2019? Mine wasn't great but this year is a new year and hopefully it'll be fantastic. I'm not optimistic this being a Presidential year...but at least we'll have some games. January is always slow so not much this month but still a few things I think the thread will be excited about. Then later in the year we have things like FF7 Remake, Last of Us 2, Nioh 2, Animal Crossing, Resident Evil 3 and Cyberpunk, plus two new consoles probably. But that's the future, what do we have this month?

Dr Kawashima’s Brain Training (Switch) – January 3 (EU)
Monster Hunter World: Iceborne expansion (PC) – January 9
The Blind Prophet (PC) – January 10
Atelier Dusk Trilogy Deluxe Pack (PC, PS4, Switch) – January 14
Tokyo Mirage Sessions FE Encore (Switch) – January 17
Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot (PC, PS4, Xbox One) – January 17
Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection (PC, PS4, Xbox One, Switch) – January 21
Moons of Madness (PS4, Xbox One) – January 21
Kingdom Hearts 3: Re Mind DLC (PS4, Xbox One) – January 23/25
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Remastered Edition (PS4, Switch, Android, iOS) – January 23
Journey to the Savage Planet (PC, PS4, Xbox One) – January 28
Warcraft 3: Reforged (PC) – January 28
Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire (PS4, Xbox One) – January 28
Through the Darkest of Times (PC) – January 30
Wizardry: Labyrinth of Lost Souls (PC) – January
Uragun – Steam Early Access (PC) – January
Cook, Serve, Delicious 3 (PC, PS4, Xbox One, Switch) – January

So everyone have a good year and be good to each other and hopefully we can all get to the other side of 2020 ok.

I wish there was a good Gunbound. They are apparently making a Gunbound 2 and it looks really bad.

Obviously a mobile version would be an IAP hell and all, but even for that this just looks bad. Gunbound had a pretty distinctive art style, it was also already perfect for visual clarity at mobile sizes. Big chunky shapes, distinct edges, the iconic googly-eye. This looks like Ragnarok Online or Maple Story fanart or some poo poo. Did anyone ever invent a Gunbound that wasn't born holding hands with a terrible business model? I know Worms exists, but never felt quite the same. Plus theres like a million of em and they vary in quality widly

I thought there was a third-party old school Gunbound server out there? But I don't remember if it's just pre-cash shop outright or they did something else with that stuff.

I think it was the first game I encountered what evolved into today's IAP mtx hell. Back then I hated myself for even thinking about buying their coins or whatever to get the cool ships and clothes. Just a bummer because there was a time where it didn't have all that poo poo, you just got in game, hit random hoping you'd get the dragon or knight, and ya would start blastin. Just for the fun of it!

You better believe I was a dumbass kid who blew what, $10? on getting that phoenix to complete my stat spread. Though I at least had enough self-respect to build unique fashion ensembles that also had decent stats...

A few background characters become playable I think. We probably won't get a full list of upgrades until release but there's a decent number of smaller things too iirc

There's some things but I think the main addition is "playable on a console owned by more than a few dozen people".


It's a very old and overdone complain but I'm still disappointed we didn't get a more SMT and FE style game, like a post-apocylptic FE-style game that has demon recruitment.

I did a looot of window dressup in that game. They knew what they were doing, let me preview how cool I'd look if I had this or that, while never letting me forget I couldn't afford it. I remember trying to find some trainer or hack to get me the items anyway haha
