Things I've Learned This Week (Video Games)

-There's a Raiden V.

-There's a console port of Raiden V... for the Japanese Xbox One. Let that sink in.

-There's a spiritual successor to the Wonder Boy Monster Land/World games, which is even made by their original creator, called Monster Boy. Here's a trailer with a super upbeat Japanese song.

-The Japanese Hotline Miami Collected Edition release has an awesome cover. I would so buy it just for that... if it had a lower price. Edit: the reviews in that link say HM1 is on a disc, but HM2 is a download code. I don't understand the existence of this product now.

-Witch & Hero 2 is apparently coming out next week. Was not expecting that. (Edit update: turns out it's the week following.)

-A new Pang game is coming out next month. By DotEmu..........

-The new Hitman game is coming out today as I write this, and I am super bummed about it. I want to play it, but not a small fragment of it. As much as it pains me, I'm going to wait for the completed version. Also, as I literally started to write this, I just read news that the disc version has been delayed until January 2017. Yay.
