Brooklyn 99 Cancelled, Then Not Cancelled

brooklyn 99

This week we were hit with some terrible news. Fox has cancelled the beloved cop comedy show Brooklyn 99, may it rest in peace. Twitter went nuts flaming fox and begging Netflix to be the hero we needed and save the show. Around 24 hours later however NBC picked the show up for another season. With support from the likes of Mark Hamill and Sean Astin whom Terry Crews thanked personally more on that here you can see while maybe not a no brainer for NBC, it wasn’t exactly a risky choice. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Rambo 5?

No, this isn’t a weird click bate article or even a joke. According to screenrant.com and other sources, while unconfirmed (or maybe confirmed by the time you read this) Rambo 5 is actually in the works with Stallone himself looking to both star in and direct the 5th installment of the series. While the last couple did underwhelming in the box office it could be interesting to see if an older John Rambo would be portrayed as an older man attempting to help a younger man accomplish some impossible mission, or if we simply get an old man gunning down people in a jungle. Either way we will have to wait to see if anything happens, best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

This week we heard a bit from Phil Spencer of and Microsoft plans for E3. He pointed out things do change of course, but for now he said we should be seeing some support for Japanese developers. This would be a nice thing to see as a JRPG fan as they have mostly been missing for the Xbox One. While we have all heard the joke about where are the Xbox games, mostly because of the lack of exclusives. Now we all know the jokes are mostly just that, jokes. However like most jokes there is a bit of truth to them, and this year at E3 Microsoft seems to be taking it a bit more seriously. For more info you can read here.  Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

According to gamerant some how in the first quarter of 2018, more specifically March, someone bought a brand new copy of Sonic the Hedgehog 2 on Sega Game Gear. Now honestly I don’t know if its a mistake or how a game that’s over 20 years old on a console that has long since been discontinued sells a new copy of a game but hey, its still hilarious. Enjoy the mystery my friends, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

As many of you may already know  the free battle royale game H1Z1 hits PS4 next month to the mixed reaction of many. For more specifics on the changes and a video you can look here but we are going to focus on how many people feel. Seeing as how H1Z1 was popular well before Pubg and Fortnight many would think people would be happy to see this getting a jump to console. After all, new players might revitalize the community. The issue is most PC player seem to have lost faith in Daybreak Games to deliver a solid experience to the console after years of let downs on computer. I for one remain skeptical because of how long it took for this to happen at all, but next month will be interesting. Best wishes, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

As Dark Souls fans await the release of Dark Souls remastered in May 2018, owners of awaiting the Switch version this week were given some not so good news. According to Polygon it has sadly been delayed until later this year, sometime in the “Summer” tho everyone else should get it as scheduled.

Shenmue And Shenmue 2 Remastered

For those that remember a long, long time ago, when Sega still did stuff all the time and not just Sonic and they made systems still ( I promise kids that was a real thing), they made a series that suddenly ended and just disappeared. For years rumors swirled about an HD remaster and a part 3. This isn’t a surprise since while I personally never played them, part 2 I am told ended with a clear 3 on the way. But nothing happened.

Well until now, according to, well Sega and confirmed by everyone including polygon there will be a Shenmue HD remaster of both 1 and 2 coming out this year for PS4 Xbox One and PC, and people are rightfully excited. And yes rumors still fly about part 3, which I have no doubt will be soon. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
