A Mario/Rabbids crossover RPG? Wait, what? I'm all for crossovers, but this one just sounds a bit too out there. The Rabbids are just annoying little spazzes and ruin whatever they appear in. Honestly, I'd have preferred Mario and Dragon Quest having a crossover, since the two franchises teamed up for Fortune Street previously (a wasted opportunity though, since that one should have been an RPG). Those two would make much more sense than putting the Rabbids in Mario's world.

Final Fantasy XV: Soon we shall see the twisting, writhing masses of complaining gamers speak their thoughts on this game (possible pissing and moaning about how this game is "not a genuine Final Fantasy" sold separately). XD

Steins;Gate 0: Speaking of, RPGFan did a review of the seven-disc Steins;Gate box set that covers music from the games and anime about a week ago: http://www.rpgfan.com/soundtracks/steinsgate-complete/index.html

Square Enix might be responsible for the two biggest franchises in the world of JRPGs, but that doesn't mean they haven't produced a few clunkers


Understatement of the decades! Laughing

Well have to see if 15 join that sadly growing list

I recall a note somewhere that the Japanese release of Hollow Realization on Vita got a version 1.03 patch recently, which reportedly helped address some of the issues from the initial release over there. (The North American version of the game on Vita is currently at v1.01.)

Is there any truth to this, or is the Japanese incarnation at a different version at this point in time?

I find it interestingly surprising that The Rabbids are still in the spotlight even with their not-so-great reception they've had over the years (at least from my perspective). Since I'm no Rabbids fan by any means, I personally don't see myself enjoying this rumored crossover of it with Super Mario; however, more power to those that are wanting for it to happen.

It should be mentioned that the SAO games take place in an alternate reality where events have played out a little differently, and certain characters are either introduced earlier or are around longer than before.
