    I feel this on a lot of levels. I have to take out loans > $30,000 a year just for school, and I will need to continue to do this for the next three years at least (with no income to offset this). I have cut back on collecting. However, I don't want to completely abandon what I'm interested in. My strategy is to buy a figure that I want, keep it for a few months, and then sell it to make up the cost of the next figure I'm interested in. This has kept costs low, while letting me experience a lot of different figures. I'm not particularly attached to any one item, so this is easy for me, but may be more difficult if you're interested in holding on to everything you buy.

    Rocket League on the go is the biggest announcement for me from this E3.

    That "angel" pose just doesn't work for the Hi-Rez given how thicc its legs and hips are imo. Similar to the issues suffered by the PG. Having said that, the wings look amazing.

    Completely off topic, but I interviewed at NYU for medical school and was staggered by how expensive everything is. I stayed in the most sketch hotel/dormitory (with four strangers sharing a room) and it was still > $100 a night. More on topic, I'd like to use my switch a bit more, but the sparsity of games got me frustrated. I had a Wii U, so a lot of the recent "new" announcements don't do anything for me. Just wish splatoon was coming out earlier in the summer.

    I think the proportions of the hi-res are just a little too strange for my tastes. Feel like the GFFMC hits the design bang on to how the wing zero was shown in endless waltz, especially with the cool wing re-design to add more feathers and articulation.

    I'm still seeing F91 MB available to "reasonable" prices on eBay and what-not. Seems like Bandai may be producing more product now? Hopefully this trend continues for Wing Zero

    That picture F360 posted looks really good, regardless of Candy finish. I am definitely in for one! Get to re-live all that Gundam Wing elementary school-era angst.

    The mold looks awesome, but I really hope they don't go the route of that super shiny candy-finish looking paint-scheme, especially since GFFMC are usually finished in matte.

    I find it very strange that Bandai opted to make both a Hi-resolution and GFFMC Wing Zero EW figures, considering that both lines (arguably) cater to the same market-base. I'll definitely be in for a GFFMC version though, as I prefer the more canonical design presented here to the Hi-resolution variant.

    So I got far enough to beat the first palace since I had the weekend off. I think I agree with you. I think the issue for me is that Ultimately, I feel that Persona 5 will end up between 4 and 3 for me. Obviously these are all games that I really enjoyed, so it's high praise regardless. We'll see if my thoughts change as I progress further through the story.

    TBH, I'm not really far at all. Just a few days in since I haven't had time to play. Maybe you enjoyed the P4 cast so much cause they were all happy-go-lucky, which cannot be said for the somber/professional P3 cast? At least, that's the reason why P4 was so enjoyable for me. Atlus needs to include a brosuke in every game as far as I'm concerned

    Does anyone have issues with screen protectors peeling off due to the heat of the system in the dock? I just put a tempered glass protector on mine, and have heard that this may be an issue with use in docked mode.

    Persona 5 has mad style. Even the menus are glorious
  14. Archer
    Honestly regret grabbing mass effect. Shoulda jumped on horizon instead. Game just doesn't feel as captivating as the original trilogy.

    Just never understood the draw of Destiny. I purchased it at release with a few friends. We had our fun in the crucible for around a month, but the story never held our interests. We eventually moved on. I'll have to admit that I'm not someone who really enjoys farming for loot/gear, in any game really, nor do I have time these days to commit to the grind. Just bought Persona 5 though, so I suppose I'll have to make time...

    Good lord Edit: The game came out in September 2014. It's only been around 2 years since launch. How is 226 days of gameplay possible?

    Picked up Kingsom Hearts 1.5 + 2.5 HD. Silly naming metrics aside, the game offers a ton of content for the price, especially if you've never played the originals (I think it's 4 full games and 2 cutscene remastered movies). well worth the $50

    Thoughts on the transforming head? The videos I've seen make it seem like a cool but finicky gimmick. The mouthpiece seems to separate easily, without even engaging the lever on the top of the head. I think I'll stick to the parts swapping head when I get it. Interesting that they didn't go the route of the unicorn (GFFMC), which retains perfect head transformation without the finicky separation issues.

    Lol, some eBay sellers have it cheaper after shipping costs. Since NY isn't a second hand reseller like mandarake, I find it strange/sketchy that they can do mark-ups like this.
  22. Archer
    For some reason, I'm not super into how the F91 product looks in real life. Maybe it's the high gloss finish, or the paint looking "sloppier" to my eye, but I feel that the greyer promo pictures look much better than the actual thing.
  23. Archer
    Dang, sorry to hear that. I'm on PS4, and the game has been an absolute blast so far. I really hope it starts working for you.

    Grabbed a copy of Nier Automata, excited to play Platinum's next masterpiece (going off the reviews). Also got a copy of Wildlands with three other guys, hoping the highest difficulty makes us work strategically.

    Yeah, Seed and Seed destiny had so much re-used animation. The only re-used animation in IBO that I can recall is the Gusion RFC's scissor attack.
