Honestly, its not that big a deal. People ask others out and get rejected all the time, sometimes even in public. I've had some friends who had some really rough rejections when asking girls out, yet neither myself or other friends in our circle judged them for it.

The best solution is to just move on. Maybe you could have picked a better time to ask her out, but honestly I wouldn't call this situation a friendship-killer. There might be a little awkwardness between you and her, but based on your description of events, it'll probably be both minuscule and short lived. Your being far too hard on yourself and giving this way more importance than it actually has. This is a pretty tame situation all things considered.

I don't know if I'd use the word regularly, but I still go back to it often enough. There are some great exclusives on the PS3, plus it has a lot of great PS1 and PS2 games available.

So if your playing Kiwami first, the next step should either be to play Yakuza 0 or Yakuza Kiwami 2. Personally, I'd do Yakuza 0 first, as it's linked to some of the characters in 1 and 2 and gives a little more backstory and development. Plus, half the game you play as Majima in a tuxedo, and how can anybody say no to that?

Glad your enjoying the game! Yakuza has this magic ability to somehow be dark and suspenseful, yet over the top and hilarious without either side losing any luster.

@danielpacheco: So far, it looks like they're just remaking the first MediEvil. I'd love it if the second was also included though.

As for what I'd THINK, I have no idea. Crash and Spyro were the two big faces of the PS1, FF VII was its biggest RPG, and MediEvil and Oddworld were the underdogs. A lot of PS1 games could end up getting remade. As for which ones I'd LIKE to see, I'd say...

Mega Man Legends 1+2

Final Fantasy IX

Final Fantasy Tactics

Ape Escape

Castlevania Symphony of the Night

Brave Fencer Musashi

Threads of Fate

and MediEvil 2

I'm probably forgetting a few others, but these are from the top of my head.

The game will be compatible with gamecube controllers, or everybody can use separate joycons or pro controllers. So yes, you only need one console and one game.

Honestly, I've lost all hope and interest for this franchise. If a Star Wars movie, ANY STAR WARS MOVIE, has to rely on DVD/Blue Ray sales just to break even, then what else is there to say about how far its fallen?

When I saw the first trailer during E3, I thought it looked really, really bad. But it honestly was even worse then I'd imagine. Who wants to watch two to three hours of pretentious talking and exposition and not be able to hear ANY of it?! And how generous of them to STAPLE those talking/not-talking cutscenes over the already horrible game part of this "game". It really says something when the most positive critic score on Metacritic basically says "well it's severely flawed but at least its.....different?"

Also, the main character's love interest and mother are played by the same actress. That ALONE makes me not want to see what the voiced cutscenes reveal.

Two that always come to my mind are GoldenEye N64 and Spider-Man PS1.

I have respect for GoldenEye, despite not having played it as much as other people: it did bring shooters forward in a big way and had some really creative mechanics in it (plus I just love old-school Rare). But honestly, it is TERRIBLE to play nowadays. Aside from the obvious graphic aging, the controls and aiming are honestly practically unplayable nowadays. There are multiple N64 games like Banjo-Kazooie and Ocarina of Time that you can still go back to today and have an absolute blast: but GoldenEye is honestly, in my opinion, one of the worst aging games ever.

As for Spider-Man, I loved this game as a kid, but it is really clunky to play nowadays. The combat especially is for the most part a stiff mash-fest where you just smack the punch button with not a lot of thought to it. Also, the characters' faces are.... melted. They are all melted. Especially Black Cat, Punisher, and every single henchman. It's not all bad though, there's lot of clever little details and some of the boss fights are fun. Plus, there's a surprising amount of goodies to unlock. All in all if you went back to Spider-Man PS1, there's still some things to appreciate, but you'll have to forgive a LOT.
