TheCrochetNerd64 is back for Part 4 of Shadow Hearts for the PlayStation 2 here on #SuperOldGameSaturday to pick up after the jaw-dropping intermission we had last month, but like with Part 4 of the last game he was in on, SarandreaAntonio is back on the show to add to the atmosphere and, like me, give his first-time reactions to this game and where we're currently at. This time, Alice Elliot and Li Zhuzhen are in Europe and heading off for their latest exorcism job, which takes them to a village close to a haunted castle that may have otherworldly creatures, new party members and both new and old friends and foes. After we finish our business there, we get some significant plot developments and hit up other areas in the second half of this game, including adventures in orphanages, churches, towers and much more as we all in the room and in the chat mixed it up with aspects of this game, other underrated games that mean a lot to us, a deep discussion on the Young Adult book genre, myself and SarandreaAntonio guessing where the plot is going (some of which got us into hysterics, both on and off-screen), us discussing how this game ties in with Koudelka on PlayStation (which will be the next game in this franchise that we'll play), our favorite Pokemon and much more. So, it was another great part for this hidden gem of a game that once again has me eagerly awaiting what will happen next (which we'll find out on February 18th), and I once again thank TheCrochetNerd64 and SarandreaAntonio for adding so much to this play and to all of you in the chat and watching here for the same. Hope you enjoy our latest part of Shadow Hearts (and if you like what you see here, stop by https://www.twitch.tv/captainditrag each Saturday at 7 PM EST, except for this week's show, which will be tomorrow on Friday, January 20th, to see these streams live and join/help drive the conversations on what we play each week)!

A link indicating Microsoft's interest in reviving 1 Vs. 100, an Xbox 360 favorite of SarandreaAntonio's (though this news story is from a year an a half ago with no updates, but Microsoft, please, you have fans who would pay for a return to that one here and elsewhere), courtesy of ComingSoon.net:

A link to part 2 of Proterova and my play of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, which had the RNG-based Dampe's Gravedigging Tour that we got in under 15 minutes and that only SarandreaAntonio remembered was RNG-based (thank you for remembering):
