A week that I’ve been waiting for since December 3, 2015.
Things we missed last week: Early Konami shooter Juno First (not to be confused with the Academy Award-winning Elliot Page vehicle) in the Archives.
Nine years, three months, and 15 days ago I did the Downloads for the release of Xenoblade Chronicles X (a few days after I reviewed it) and now we’re going to run it back on a system people actually own. And I’m going to slowplay this one, so if I’m going to review it we’re probably looking at Easter because it’s gonna take that long. Still, we’re going to all disappear for several weeks on Thursday. Deal with it.
Among the poor bastards competing with Xenoblade Chronicles X this week are fellow RPGs MLB The Show 25 (non-early access edition) and Atelier Yumia (Allyson has a review in progress), or the scrolling shooter Assault Suit Leynos 2. Also, this week’s EggConsole game – Gulkave – is a shooter, so it should be relatively playable.
