@Northern_munkey I’m glad I’m not alone. Balatro wasn’t bad but I didn’t get the hype for it. Ball x Pit on the other hand was one of my absolute favorite games last year, it was so fun and addictive.

Fantastic month. Monster Train 2 is such an addictive game.

This looks absolutely awesome.

@IronCrow86 happy 40th!

I will very happily not be getting GTA VI. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Castlevania Belmont’s Curse has consumed me.

Cult of the Lamb for $10 is an absolute steal! I hadn’t binged a game that hard since I was in high school.

@Fluberuper I hear that’s the best way to go into it. I haven’t played it yet either, but I plan to eventually, so I’ve intentionally not looked anything up about it.

@BrockSmith I didn’t get terribly far into it before I stopped playing but that was because I’ve been too busy to give it the attention it needs, but with that said I absolutely loved what I played and plan on getting back into it on my Christmas break. The combat was smooth, story was intriguing, characters were well written and acted, and i personally love the time mechanic because it keeps me from trying to do everything and inevitably getting burnt out.

@Banjo- sadly, I’ve only played the original so I’m not sure.

Getting my scrib doon on and some Pokopia.

Anyone who hasn’t played Toy Story 3 shouldn’t sleep on this one, it’s actually a fantastic game. I can’t even say it’s because of nostalgia, I just played it for the first time about four years ago.

That game length sounds perfect to me. This is a day one, for sure, the demo was excellent and I can’t wait to play the full story.

I started Cronos: The New Dawn on Switch 2 as my on the go game. I also started up Wolverine, I’m only on the first area but I’m enjoying it.

@RomanRiz thank you! All I hear is Kojima defense and glazing, but he comes across as a spoiled nepo baby who was told no for the first time, to me. I can’t imagine he’s easy to work with and he’s constantly over budget, it was bound to happen at some point.

I can’t wait to see this!

@GirlVersusGame always a great day when you get to quote Eric.

@wildcat_kickz I must issue a stand down!

Mostly Onimusha and Dawnwalker, but I’ve been working my way through FFIV too, so I might throw some of that in if I have some down time.

About what I expected for a score. I’m looking forward to it, but I’m glad I went Dawnwalker first.

@Ravix Witcher Come Deliverance 🤣

The Blood of Dawnwalker and Onimusha Way of the Sword will consume my life, hence forth.

This game is fantastic, but quite janky. A patch or two would go a long way with this one, the story and gameplay are there, it just needs some polishing.

@dwayne91 which isn’t terribly priced, but I’d have to buy a system, controller, and memory card too. I can’t bring myself to justify it… yet.

@dwayne91 that’s how I played it too! A friend down the road had it before I had ever heard of it. I borrowed it from him and got fairly far but never got to beat it. I’ve almost bought a PSOne and BFM online recently, but man that game is expensive. I’ve been praying it’d come to the PS Store.

I just want Brave Fencer Musashi 😫

I can be hit or miss for my enjoyment/use of parrying in games. It was crucial in Sekiro and to this day it is still my all time favorite combat system, but I ignore it in most other games unless it’s a must. For those saying they’re awful at it, knowing Insomniac and their accessibility options, I wouldn’t be surprised if you could open the parry window.

Orrrrrrrrr give me $100 million and I won’t, but I will say, “Thank you!” I’m not against Brutal Legend 2, but I’m more for having $100 million.

@D6rkLordS6t6n you perfectly summed up why I’m loving this game.

This is my most anticipated game, I can’t wait to finally play it. Reviews are definitely proving it was worth the wait!

Perfect, Fable games were never massive but you could spend so much time on them. I’m good with this length.

To my surprise, I’m playing Star Wars Zero Company. It’s got some weird bugs, but I’m really enjoying it.

This, Onimusha, and Blood of Dawnwalker are all I’ll need for the rest of the year. I can’t wait to play those three.

I really don’t have any interest in grabbing this, but I watched the reveal just for the fun of it. Jason seems dull as hell, but otherwise it looks absolutely fantastic. I still don’t plan on grabbing it and if I do it won’t be at release, but it looks like GTA fans are being reward for their patience (or lack there of in some cases).

I’m not really into westerns but Guns of Eschaton looks pretty good. Spine looks ridiculous and I can’t wait.

@KonstantTrouble she has face tattoos, that picture certainly doesn’t make it easy to tell.

It’s fever dream Mega Man. I kinda love it.

Hear me out now… a full furry style Rush suit for Diana.

I’m working my way through Cult of the Lamb Woolhaven mostly. What a masterpiece of a game. I’m also playing KH, I guess now that KH4 seems like it’s actually going to release I’ll replay what I’ve played and catchup on what I haven’t. Lastly, my son and I have been playing Halo together. He organically found his first skull last night, I’m so proud. 🥹

@PaperAlien I believe in their latest video they said that directional combat was an optional thing, you can choose to play it traditionally.

Already have it pre ordered, this is my most anticipated game for the rest of the year.

RIP in peace, another one gone far too young.

I beat the main campaign of Splatoon Raiders. I’ll also be playing some Beast of Reincarnation. I finally hit the bullet and bought Cult of the Lamb, I absolutely love it, but they don’t make it easy to get the wood needed in the game, I can’t make anything right now because I can’t get enough of it. Finally, I played the Mistborn Deckbuilding Game solo and took on the Lord Ruler.

I still have my 360 copy of this. Let me know when Battle for Middle Earth, Two Towers, and Return of the King shadow drop, those will be day one!

Farming sims aren’t my thing, but this game is stunning. I’m quite intrigued.

@IronCrow86 I was with your comment on the IGN review and I’m with it here! Soulslike has been such a quick way to pull my attention away from a game. There’s been so many incredible looking games that I lose interest in because of that tagline.

I seem to be in the minority here but I don’t feel like he’s that great of an actor. This is pretty disappointing to me.

I’m on day one of my family vacation, but the Switch 2 came with me. I’ll squeeze in some Splatoon Raiders if I’m not sleeping.

Gasp.

(I need more text.)

As long as “What’s right for the game” is more of it and from IO, I’m in.

I can’t wait, this looks great.
