@Husky_Khan I am thinking of creating the index of this thread, the idea came with the Horror gaming thread you made a while ago...I remember you did create other gaming threads, would you mind sharing them here as well?
Would I ever... In Reverse Chronological Order. Now be careful... some of these threads might have upwards of two replies, and on occassion from someone other then me!!!
I actually excluded a fair bit of individual games, sales threads and indie games I put up threads about since they seem too minor to be significant. So like I made threads about RE3 and RE8Village but only put up the RE General thread here.
Mortal Kombat:
Warner Brothers Games is going to publish Mortal Kombat 12... or Mortal Kombat 1 rather, since it's basically a reboot. It's expected to be released sometime in 2023. The last time the series was rebooted was in Mortal Kombat 9 which was released in 2011 or therabouts and it was an awesome...

Activision-Blizzard Megathread:
The thread all about Activision-Blizzard... Blizztavision... Actiblizzard.... Bobby Kotick's Instrument of Ushering in the Apocalypse for he is the AntiChrist mentioned in the Book of Revelations and that companies goings on. To start off in a positive note... and by positive I mean not...

Baldurs Gate 3:
It was announced at E3 last year but they've been working on the game for a few years. 350 people working on the project. Be interesting to see how this develops. Been ages since I played the old one, and the remade games are still gathering e-dust in my digital library. Maybe I'll try and play...

Diablo IV:
And Diablo IV even has a trailer. Looks like you'll even be able to play it on your PC or Console, not just your mobile device!

Metal Gear Solid:
Taking a cue from the (well deserved) success of the Resident Evil remakes perhaps. Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, which is the one that takes place during the Cold War and is an origin story in case your not sure off the top of your head, is being remade. The original game came out in...

Final Fantasy VII Remake:
It's not just for movies anymore, yet another high quality (or at least high priced) remake/reboot of a popular video game series is going to be released on April 10th, this time for a legend in video game history, 1997's Final Fantasy VII. It certainly looks beautiful, though on a glance...

Warhammer 40K Space Marine:
Not even a thread on this yet, you bunch of cucks. I didn't even realize this was being worked on until the trailer dropped. As a franchise I assumed it was Dead since that's all anyone ever seemed to say about it. But it looks like it has been worked on enough that they made a cinematic...

Cringe Games Journalism:
We have a Cringe Journalism thread but not one specifically for Games Journalism and with such a lucrative year of excellent takes by Games Journalists, it's a real tragedy. Especially with Cyberpunk 2077 now showing a spike of cringey bad takes on how awful gaming is. this seems as good a time...

TTRPG Guide to Woke Companies:
Someone on TheRPGSite.com made a list or index of woke and apolitical companies on their forum. It's been making the rounds and getting some traction and according to the original poster is a 'living document' which will be updated. TTRPG Guide to Woke Companies Green These are entities that...

Doom Game Franchise:
"We will send unto them only you." Story Trailer dropped. It is filled with glee and more of the quality content we expect from the revamped Doom. Needless to say, it looks metal as errr… Hell. 😇 The Alex Jones version(s) hasn't been released yet but remain hopeful.

Metaverse Gaming Discussion:
I figured might as well broach the subject since it's coming up more and more now with AR and VR stuff and not just from Facebook rebranding itself. But we've had folks like Bobby Kotick, formerly of Activision, babbling about the potential of the 'Metaverse' and others from Microsoft and...

So Poland's new Prime Minister is a badass Karate champion. Her name is Lidia Sobieska and she's a Karate Master who hails from a political family and adversary of the ruthless Mishima Zaibatsu. When her homeland comes under threat from Heihachi Mishima and his Tekken Force, she took up the...

Midnight Suns:
This was announced awhile ago. The X-Com game format I think is loaded with potential for all sorts of franchises. It would be amazing seeing you build and lead a WH40K Inquisitorial Squad or a Star Trek Away Team or a squad of Clonetroopers or other Star Wars Operatives through various...

Bethesda Megathread:
There are threads for a lot of their more famous properties, but they make a lot of stuff/crap. But I'll start this thread off with something more lighthearted. The Deathloop and Dishonored settings are connected according to Bethesda's Twitter... and of course due to in game references...

Overwatch Franchise:
The reviews seemed mixed as Overwatch 2 is geared to be released soon, saying it adds complexity... but of the messy kind, not the fun enhancing kind. https://www.pcgamer.com/overwatch-2-review-in-progress/

Grand Theft Auto:
Apparently (to the surprise of no one) the Great Theft Auto Trilogy will be released later this year with sexy new modern enhancements. https://www.pcgamer.com/grand-theft-auto-the-trilogy-confirmed/ And sadly, this trilogy isn't including the original top down madness of the first two Grand...

Cringe Mobile Gaming Ads:

Dragon Age Franchise:
I did thoroughly enjoy playing Dragon Age: Origins but after the semi-enjoyable Long Vacation in Kirkwall that was Dragon Age II I never even bothered to weave the tapestry and play Dragon Age: Inquisition. Yet apparently, after many years, Bioware has released the name of the fourth...

World of Tanks:
https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1407200/view/3056224118608141455 Looks like World of Tanks is coming to Steam. I'll be honest, I assumed it was already on Steam but I guess it wasn't, which in hindsight makes sense. No dumb 'Mandela Effect' theorycrafting here. Anyhow now you can join...

Soulsbourne Game Megathread:
Today is apparently the 10th Anniversary of the Dark Souls franchise. Though Demon Souls is considered part of the family and was released in 2009, it was in 2011 when players first awoke in the Undead Asylum to Oscar, Knight of A store, helpfully freeing you by dumping a corpse in your cell...

God of War:
So the Playstation exclusive gameplay trailer for God of War: Ragnarok, the sequel to the much well regarded God of War 2018 game, has been released. So it looks pretty cool. I see Kratos is still grappling with his past and really not wanting war with Asgard. Freya still seems pissed about...
