It could be time to iaijutsu-draw your wallet on the cheapest AC Shadows Gold version I’ve seen yet. Not gonna lie, not a huge fan of games costing more than a hundred bucks, but this already (Origins-sized) massive game will include two upcoming expansions, plus an extra mission at launch. Knowing that, I’m shur-i-ken appreciate this price better now.
In retro news, I’m celebrating the 27th birthday of Fighters Megamix, the Sega Saturn’s answer to Smash Bros before that was even a thing. Sega of the ’90s was especially 3D fightin’ obsessed, so the concept here was simple—smoosh a bunch of brawlers from the Virtua Fighter series, Fighting Vipers, and other games into one punch-a-rrific package. I remember being particularly stoked with the ten weirdo unlockable characters, like some Sonic the Fighters contestants, the palm tree from AM2’s logo, a gun-packing Janet from Virtua Cop, and a *double checks memory* Daytona USA NASCAR.
