What year is it?
[Coming to you a little late, what a busy week it’s been! This was a special week for me too, as I proposed to community member Madoka Malika (yes…she said yes) ~ Stephen]
Okay, we all know what year it really is. How could we forget 2016: the year that murdered everybody? But if we were to look only at recent game releases like Owlboy, Final Fantasy XV, and The Last Guardian, you’d think it was at least 2010 right now. Soak it in, people! This is probably the closest we’ll ever get to traveling though time.

Soul Calibur’s 20th Anniversary Video Gives Glimmer of Hope for 6th Title
They’ll give everybody’s favorite character Kilik for free and charge for literally everything else. Characters, costumes, weapons, stages… you won’t even be able to play three matches in a row without buying continues. It’s brilliant!

Citalis, Which was Once too Hard, is Now too Easy
Honestly, did anyone not read that as “Cialis”?
This week’s Commenter of the Week is Teanna Werefox for their response in an article about the Sonic anniversary art book. Not only did they go for the double sarcasm combo, they also reminded me that Gex was a thing. Man, when I was a kid all I ever wanted was Gex action figures for some reason. I kept staring at the advertisement in ToyFare magazine and then searching for details online about when they were coming out. Alas, they never did.
And that’s another week in the books, fellow Dtoiders. Until next time, may all your toy-related dreams come true.
