New Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer to Ease the Pain
Announced only a few days ago, Grand Theft Auto VI will no longer be coming out this year. The entire rest of my 2025 was being planned around that game release. But now it won’t be out for a fully year, next May. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day was ruined.
To ease the pain, Rockstar shadow-dropped a brand new Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer today, only our second look at this expansive game.
I don’t even know where to begin. None of that looked like in-game footage…but what if it is?! We expect nothing but the best from Rockstar, and they’ve been working on this game for nearly a decade. Maybe they will deliver graphics that good! The voice acting and characters look great. Recognized a lot of familiar voices, which is a hoot. The location looks so detailed and with such depth. The characters seem so cool.
It all just looks so real and wonderful. Which I guess will have to sustain us.
You can get some more info on the game at this link to Rockstar’s homepage.

This Fun Little Warcraft Fanimation
In my various internet travels, I always stumble upon random stuff here and there. And I like to share it. Because you good readers deserve to see good stuff as well. And that brings us to this fun little, fan made, stop motion Warcraft animation. I still love Warcraft, even if I haven’t played WoW in a very long time.
Huzzah and kudos all around! Fun little animation, very well done. Kudos to Justin Rasch for his work, as well as his whole team. I hope it’s fun to make videos like this.
Anyway, I’m going to see Thunderbolts* tonight and can’t wait!

How About a Ghost of Yōtei Story Trailer?
Ghost of Yōtei is a sequel to Ghost of Tsushima, an excellent game, and it’s coming out later this year. I’m excited. You should be excited. Should be a great game! And it’s a random Monday at the end of April, so how about a new trailer that shows off a bit of the story? Seems like a good use of all of our time.
Looks good to me. I don’t even need to see anything else about this game. I’m getting it. Maybe Day One, maybe not. Depends on when Grand Theft Auto VI comes out. Everything depends on when GTA6 comes out. But Ghost of Yōtei comes out on Oct. 2. So we’ll see! Though how I’ll be able to go from this to getting Assassin’s Creed: Shadows on sale next year should be tough.
Speaking of games, I’ve just bought and downloaded Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 this morning. I’ve finished Kingdom Come: Deliverance II and didn’t know what to move on to next, and then the internet started gushing about this Expedition 33 game. I know very little about it, haven’t seen a trailer, so I’m mostly going in blind. I’ll let you know how it goes at the end of the week.

Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is just here now
I don’t normally pay any attention to video game remasters. There are always new video games to play, so I rarely look back. But I never finished Oblivion back when it first came out. And Elder Scrolls 6 is still a million years away. So maybe…
Anyway, this game was released just yesterday with no announcement ahead of time. Bethesda was just working on this totally in secret, then just unleashed it upon the world. Better graphics, better everything, I guess. Free on X-Box Gamepass, but otherwise costing a normal amount of money for a video game elsewhere.
I might have to play this one. I’m just finishing up Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, so I need a new game to play. And like I said, I never finished Oblivion. Heck, I can barely remember Oblivion. I don’t remember what type of character I created. I don’t remember most missions or major events. So it might be like a new game for me.
Though I probably shouldn’t go from KCD2 into a 20-year-old game, no matter how remastered it might be. I need something to whet my palette.

There’s Gonna Be a Marvel Beat’em Up!
A few years ago, the Ninja Turtles got a really awesome beat’em up game called Shredder’s Revenge. It was a gorgeous game steeped in TMNT lore and characters, a beautiful callback to the classic arcade games. Well those developers/publishers are back with a Marvel Comics beat’em up game! Because we are allowed to have nice things.
Marvel Cosmic Invasion looks cool as hell! Interesting character choices. Nova with long hair? I suppose. But Phyla-Vell?! That’s a great deep cut! And there’s always a chance for more characters to be added, just like with the Ninja Turtles game. I wish I’d waited to play that until Mondo Gecko was available!
Anyway, this game looks super fun and I hope I get the chance to play it with friends.
Cosmic Invasion comes out sometime later this year.
