FF7 Remake Theme Song и другие финалочные новости января

Скваря представила главную тему ремейка семёрки трейлером, который спойлерит ну совсем всё. Я даже не знаю, осталось ли что-то в качестве сюрприза или уже нет.



Тем не менее, всё до сих пор смотрится хорошо. Все изменения и дополнения выглядят органично и логично. Удивительно, но претензий всё ещё нет.

Ладно, песня мне не нравится.



Уэмацу, меж тем, написал только заглавный трек, а остальное - Хамаудзу (10, DoC, 13, 13-2, 13-3, World) и Судзуки (13-2, 13-3, Mobius).

...eh. Исимото не могли позвать?



Тем временем Номура продолжает кормить нас Версусом: в длс к кх3 Ёзора, который практически Ноктис, - не просто босс, а главный герой концовки. Которая выглядит как тот самый трейлер Версуса.






Мне после финала кх3 немного пофиг на то, что там происходит, но насколько же забавно видеть, как Номура цепляется за свои нереализованные фантазии, и то, как ему в рамках кх позволяют творить вообще всё, что угодно.

Ну и последнее важное: Мёбиус закрывается. Туда ему и дорога, он был куском говна. Одно беспокоит: раньше на Мёбиус уходило внимание Китасе и Ториямы - как бы оно сейчас не распылилось на что-то ещё.

Xbox One X (as-is condition, console only FOR REPAIR, PARTS ONLY NOT NEW IN BOX, YOU MIGHT NEED TO FIX THEM understood? NOTNEW) $139.99 (Ebay seller)

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Microsoft-Xbox-One-X-1TB-Black-Console-as-is-for-repair-or-parts-only/264227168298

 

YMMV obviously--I ordered two of these a month ago and they have been running fine for me.  All I had to do was reinstall the newest system update and they have both been fine with no issues.  One system's issue noted was "freezes" and the other was "no video". 

 

It says he has only 2 in stock, but I bought two a while back and the listing has remained active for the entire time with stock available, so he probably leaves the number low to keep demand going. This is probably a bulk buyer who doesn't extensively troubleshoot the systems.  I am not affiliated with the seller.  Cosmetically, the systems are nice enough to trade in without taking a refurb fee when stores re-open for business.
