Who would ever call that trash that Pizza Hut sells a good pizza? Their wings and sides are the only redeeming qualities about them.

Domino's and this is the easiest poll ever.

Impressions

I believe that, if they're sticking with this UI, "Materia" will probably be where the different kinds of Command Materia will go, such as Steal or Manipulate. Just my own theory so far.

Impersonations

Wow, have to use a specific store (that overcharges for S+H) just to get a single pin. Really enticing, guys.

What the hell

I once smelled some really good cinnamon rolls

• Don't give me impressions
• When are you getting a non-Nintendo gaming system?
• Do you like the horror genre? Like for films or games or whatever?
• Where do you go for a quick and cheap food fix?

Holy shit this game got no play over here.

Anyway...this is easily one of my favorite horror games ever now.

If anyone cares to read my review, click the spoilers. I don't actually spoil anything in the story though, so no worries.

Spoiler: Welcome to the Family

Against cynical perspectives and traditionalist die-hards, "Resident Evil 7: Biohazard" manages to expertly combine the intense first-person combat of "Condemned: Criminal Origins" with the resource management, intriguing puzzle design and crazy horror + science fiction themes of traditional "Resident Evil" all with a setting new to the RE series: the Bakers' plantation, set in a fictional city of the southern Louisiana, complete with swamps and barns.

Gone are the forced co-operative trends of the latest RE games such as 5, 6, Revelations and Revelations 2. Gameplay is a mixture of isolated exploration, crafting ammunition or useful drugs like medication or psychostimulants to highlight items, figuring out puzzles such as rotating objects to cast a specific shape of shadow, and of course fighting back against hideous creatures with your various weapons, generally with less ammunition than you'd feel comfortable with in those situations. Yet the game (at least on Normal difficulty) still feels fair, as you have a very effective block that absorbs most enemy damage, as well as a quick crouch for attacks that are aimed at your upper torso. There were still a few times where I wasn't sure how to avoid damage, but not nearly enough to create frustration.

This game knows how to keep surprising you throughout its generally 7-10 hour campaign (unless you speedrun.) The story is well fleshed out with memorable characters and moments that will stick with you long after the credits roll, and the Bakers' estate feels like a tribute to the original Resident Evil game's Spencer Mansion: an area you'll be exploring for the majority of the game, with various parts locked until you find the right items to gain access. There's even a recreation of the shotgun puzzle from the first game.

The few criticisms I have of the game spur from the sort of rushed sensation the game goes through toward the end, with an unclear point of no return, as well as an ending that feels a bit incomplete. Still, this is a journey worth experiencing, and the cast definitely earn their place among such series mainstays as Jill Valentine and Albert Wesker. Of the "Resident Evil" games I've so far completed, which includes REmake, 4, 5, 6, Revelations, and now this title, Resident Evil 7 stands as my second favorite...just because "Resident Evil 4" is literally perfect.

They say the Aqua figure is from 0.2 but she's clearly holding Rainfell and not Master's Defender

What does this have to do with the Kingdom Hearts series or our own forum beyond pushing some person who happens to be famous? Nothing against Austin but this is not news worthy.

I feel bad for Xion that her only real game appearance was in the worst playing game of the series.

I even brought that up too :\
