Hey Tea, I really wanna order Ace Combat 8 - another supplier has the Deluxe edition; are you guys getting it too, or should I go ahead and order it?

I thought that new controller collab was with the Japanese singer LiSA and I would've bought it if it was her. No idea who this other person is lol

Also looking forward to replaying Stellar Blade on Switch 2. Wonder if it will have a one-handed handheld mode

That price on the Switch 2 version of Cyberpunk 2077 is such a good price. What a great game, and how CDPR managed to get it looking as good as it does and run as well as it does on Switch 2 is amazing. Loved it on PS5 and love it on Switch 2. Nice thing is that even the expansion is fully on the Switch 2 cart.

Disney and Fox Merge

by Shelly van Heerden on 31 July, 2018

Friday saw the shareholder vote for Walt Disney Company's purchase of 21st Century Fox for a staggering $71.3 billion, which will now add to Disney's already extensive film and TV portfolio.

Large names, such as Avatar, the Alien franchise (ed - sob), Home Alone, Family Guy, and The Simpsons will fall under the Disney brand, even though The Simpsons will still premier it's 30th season on FOX on 30 September 2018. However, Fox News, Sport and other related media will fall under a new creation, "New Fox", and Disney itself won't be too involved with these company assets.

What we know is that Disney is trying to get their paws on the heroes - or anti-heroes - X-Men, Deadpool and Fantastic Four (and so are we). This finally means that these three big names will be joining in on the Marvel Cinematic Universe fun, bringing with them the opportunity for flicks such as the long anticipated Doctor Doom (ed - or the ability to churn out even more standalone movies every year).

Disney still have a full schedule ahead in terms of MCU releases, with Captain Marvel, Avengers 4, and Spider-Man: Far From Home on the horizon, but big plans are surely in the works. It may take a few years but we look forward to a few (less disappointing) reboots.

A conundrum of killing all the things, but also into unicorns and glitter pens. Wears her allegiance on her sleeve. Lok’tar ogar!

YES! AWESOME NEWS!!!!!

@Bob A more mature FF, where Reed & Sue already have their two kids. I don't think we need another origin story.
& please, a proper Doctor Doom with Latveria!!
Wonder if they will go with X-23, for the new Wolverine?

Bob the Third

They already looking into casting the Fantastic Four, they looking at a more mature Reed and Sue Richards, something like the Future Foundation version of the F4.

The talking John Krasinski as Reed Richards and Emily Blunt as Sue Richards (not Storm, as she would already be married in the MCU version).The director who shown interest to direct the F4 movie is Teyton Reed (Ant Man and the Wasp).

Also Scott Eastwood as Johnny Storm.

We may not see them in their own movie for a while; however, they may start to make appearances in other MCU movies in Phase 4.

And with regards to Deadpool…they going to make him a Disney princess…he would be scaled down, something like 90% and make cameo appearances in other MCU movie (please give us the Spiderman / Deadpool, rubber chicken high school hallway fight)…

They also to recast Wolverine, and his suit, a yellow and blue version of the Captain America suit
