Here's my full review for Beyond Good & Evil. My opinion hasn't changed much from my disappointment earlier in the week, but give it a read.
"Beyond Good & Evil: 20th Anniversary Edition is here, but for 2024 it feels a bit antiquated and doesn't live up to the hype. It's the gaming version of "You had to be there"." everyonesarcade.com/2024/07/05/r...
Review – Beyond Good & Evil: 20th Anniversary Editioneveryonesarcade.com Beyond Good & Evil: 20th Anniversary Edition is here, with improved audio and visuals. But perhaps you had to be there the first time around.

We do reviews for everyone! What does this mean? All of our reviews cover the basics, with a scoring system out of 10. If you just want to see a regular review, don't worry, we've got you covered for that. A small thread...🧵

Still earlyish in-game, but Beyond Good & Evil: 20th Anniversary Edition feels exceedingly average. I get why it was good at its time. I can appreciate a lot of people who loved it then love it now. But as a newcomer to it, I don’t get the hype.

I've put a lot of hard work into Everyone's Arcade and I'm finally starting to see a bit of pay-off on that hard work. If you get the chance please give my pages a follow and check out the site regularly, it will really help! Linktree below for all the socials and the site.

If the three games they have listed for this showcase is all they are showing.... I won't bother tuning in. It's already late in the day for me anyway. Would be cool if they throw in a surprise, but it sounds very focused.

I don't suppose I have any members of the press on here who might be able to answer a question for me? Been pending approval for Capcom's press site for a long time. All other approved me rather quickly. Wondered if there's any support for it?

Anyone played what they consider to be their GOTY yet?

Published one article this week that did fantastic on Search Engines (almost nothing ever does). Guess I'm an SEO Expert now. (Spoiler: I'm not and I have no idea why it took off)

Calendar all updated as a result of the Nintendo Direct. Plenty to look forward to and some big reviews on the way for later in the year hopefully.

Would like to watch X-Men: The Last Stand tonight, but my three-year-old has been struggling to get to sleep with the lighter evenings 😰Wish me luck this evening.

Best place to sell video games in the UK? CEX offer abysmal prices for cash. eBay is tempting but I'm wondering if there's anything better out there?

X-Men day for me today. Lunchtime X-Men '97, followed by an evening of watching X2 in my X-Men movie catch up.

Anybody else find any social media under meta so difficult to grow an account with, whether it's interactions or followers? BlueSky and Twitter have been great for my @everyonesarcade.bsky.social page, but anything Meta has been awful.

I'm mega excited for this game. Haven't really played any SMT before, only Persona, but this looks incredible.

I don't know if anyone else does this, but when I'm writing a review, even if I've used it a million times, I still have to google the occasional word to check its definition to make sure I'm using it correctly.

Something I really appreciate about Final Fantasy XVI, is the ability to pause cutscenes.

I love Persona 5 Royal for many reasons, but one in particular is that it made every other RPG in my backlog feel like it wasn’t that long and I could easily focus on and beat a 50 hour RPG as an adult with a kid and a full time job.

Anyone happen to use Chiaki4Deck? Back in January, streaming was perfect from PS5 > SteamDeck, but now (after some updates) I keep having problems

I think it would've been a great idea for GameFreak to port Pokemon XY over to the Switch prior to the release of Pokemon Legends Z-A. I want to replay XY but digging out the 3DS to play it on a smaller screen isn't the one.
