Yes, the topic does seem remarkably dry to be spawning it’s own IP.
Terraforming Mars is looking great.

Just got word from Asmodee that early access on steam should be happening in May with full release (pc, iOS, android) in Q2.
I should be getting a key soon and I’ll report if multiplayer is asynchronous or not. The press release we received just says online multiplayer, so I’m a bit worried.

There is a new iOS CCG called Uncivil War that looks like it is based on the Civil War. I’m not expecting much, but the concept is welcome.
Huh, For some reason I thought it would be a marvel licensed game, but it’s based on the American civil war instead. I’ll give it a go anyway

One review seemed to suggest that the game is merely War, but some cards have powers. Let us know how it goes.
I gave it a couple days a little while ago. That review is entirely accurate.
War, but the cards you play have abilities. Each time cards with the same value are played by each player there’s a multi-card duel, which was about the only time you could perform combos and was the only real fun bit for me.
Solid pixel art, but the gameplay didn’t keep my interest.
Paradox announced a release date of April 24th for Battletech. This might make me buy a laptop if it is good enough.

Sounds like CCP (EVE Online) is making a Hades Star clone.
I really really really hope it is good. I want this turned into a franchise so much it hurts. I may have spent too much on everything Battletech/Mechwarrior (Novels, Sourcebooks, Models, Computer Games) but my body is ready to spend some more.
…boy is my body ready to do so…

According to AppShopper, Splendor has updated to include the Cities expansions. I own the cardboard expansion but have yet to play it. I do know that it is a modular expansion, though, with multiple ways to expand the base game. Cities are just one of the modules included in the tabletop expansion.
Warbits is on sale for .99.
Does anyone know if it is possible to play a 3-player asynchronous game?
Saw this… I’m cautiously optimistic and hoping for something good…
Wow, Shenmue I&II coming to Steam this year with some limited upgrades.
Good preparation for Shenmue III then. I haven’t played them but was always interested. Even better if they get a PS4 port…a man can dream?
They are coming to PS4 as well.

I played the first one on Dreamcast and the second one on XBox. Honestly the most exciting thing about this is probably the Japanese voiceovers, because I fired up the first one on a DC emulator not that long ago and the English voice acting was just so, so bad.

That’s a given. I get really mad when publishers decide to cut corners and remove the original language version.
One reason I have so much fun in Yakuza Kiwami is that they removed the ATROCIOUS dub of the original altogether. Also Mark Hamil’s Voicework was way overrated as frak.
It’s nothing short of a Miracle that Yakuza 2 was even released in the West after that stain of a dub in Y1. And that so late in the console generation lifecycle back then.
Although they learned from their mistakes and this time didn’t bother with a dub.
So yes give me Shenmue in all it’s subbed not dubbed glory
