The urge to burn through the gauntlet and circle back around to improve the grades is high. That said, it pays to take it slow and appreciate the finer details. One of them, a secret alternate boss phase in theCupheadDLC, is low-key blowing my mind for a few reasons....

That’s 3/4 as in everyone but myself, mostly due to the fact that I couldn’t get mybucketpast airport security.

Still a ways off Shenmue IIImight still be set for December 2017, but that hasn’t stopped developer YS Net from updating us every month or so, and this time, it has modified the official website. The project seems to be rather slow-going, but it’s making progress, as evidenced by the newest video below, showing off an area called “Bailu Village Hut.” As I’ve said before, I’m pretty careful with what I back in terms of crowdfunding, and I think this is something that truly can’t afford to fail....
