Beyond all the other reasoning and conjecture, the Blackhawks’ firing of Joel Quenneville means Chicago’s Stanley Cup window is closed for good. There will not be a storybook fourth championship for the core of players who rescued a franchise. If Jonathan Toews, Patrick Kane, Corey Crawford, Duncan Keith or Brent Seabrook ever gets another chance to lug the Cup around a jubilant city, it won’t be Chicago. Tuesday’s decision by general manager Stan Bowman to remove Quenneville and promote 33-year-old Jeremy Colliton from AHL Rockford was proof the Blackhawks have squeezed every drop from their decade of excellence....

Besides the inclusion of purchasable costumes like Cloud and Tifa from Advent Children, and the map incorporating landmarks from the other games, The First Soldier largely keeps to itself.

The Final Fantasy 7 Remake concept art may actually be somewhat surprising to past Final Fantasy 7 players. The art features much more modern building, layered with wires and signs as if the future was simply built over the past.
