3 remakes I would buy: DK Country Returns, Wind Waker, Xenoblade X. If I get any of these Ill be very happy considering we're at the end of the Switch. A new mainline DK would be awesome and is something I can see happening. A far out wish would be a sequel to Astral Chain.
I've kind of decided to not buy anymore games for the Switch while I wait for Switch 2, however, if they have figured out a way to remake Xenoblade X I'm preordering ASAP.
Diablo IV. The newest season is pretty good. Gonna hit lvl100 for the first time. Im also playing the new Alan Wake 2 DLC. And if I have time I'll hunt down some more outfits in Stellar Blade.
I'm rotating between Stellar Blade, Witcher 3, and Diablo IV. Im also really trying to get into Fallout 4 and Baldurs Gate 3 again but those games just arent clicking for me at all (yet).
PS5: Stellar Blade Bossrush mode and 3rd run to collect every outfit. I cant wait! Game is so good and I keep coming back even though I already platted it.
Recently finished: Hellblade 2. Incredible game. Really enjoyed all aspects off it except Senuas slow ass walking. Took me about 7hrs to finish without a guide. Will go back for the rest of the collectibles. Another GOTY contender for me.
Sidenote. I now wish a new Xenoblade game would drop this year so that I'd have one new "blade" exclusive game across my consoles fighting over GOTY. lol. Have a good weekend everybody.
Some of these games have already been mentioned but Baldurs Gate 3, Cyberpunk, Elden Ring, Red Dead 2, Gta 5, Street Fighter 6, Sea of Thieves, whatever Call of Duty game is hot right now, make sense to me.
Next games probably wont happen but I'd love to see Helldivers 2, A plagye Talr 1 and 2, and Death Stranding.
As for launch IPs by Nintendo I'd love to see a new Xenoblade game or X as well as Donkey Kong and Super Mario Oddyssey 2 and maybe MK9.
Loved TotK. How they built on BotW and made an equally great if not greater experience is an incredible achievement to me. My favourite moments was finding all the tears and watching the cut scenes unfold. Finding the mastersword gave me goosebumps.
Stellar Blade and nothing else. Played first playthrough blind. Second playthrough Im looking up trophy related stuff because theres no free roam. Have a good weekend everybody.
@sanderev Im kind of disapointed by this generation ps and xbox, but at the same time there have been a lot of great multiplats that ive enjoyed. My biggest gripe with this generation and switch is all the remakes. Im so tired off it. Love seeing Stellar Blade on top because its a really good game.
My Xbox and Switch will be collecting dust until Im done with Stellar Blade.
My first impressions so far: combat, music, graphics, design and skilltree are phenomenal. I especially love the bossbattles.
Story and VO is fine. Nothing special.
Some of the platforming sequences are annoying but its no dealbreaker.
Im playing completely blind and having a blast. Also love that the game got ng+ where everything carries over. Will be playing Stellar Blade A LOT.
@SBandy1 thats because the first two books are just a bunch of short stories that takes place at different times. A much better read than the tv adaption pulled off. The main story and its epilogue book is a very good read though. And easy to follow (despite a lot of characters and stuff happening).
3 books in 2 seasons. Lady of the lake is pretty long. And they're skipping the epilogue all together? No Cavill. Yeah. This will be a rushed mess. At least Netflix will actually finish a show they started so theres that.
PS5: Street Fighter 6 and Fallout 4 (backlog) Series X: Witcher 3, my fifth playthrough or something. Havent played it in years but decided to do another run and take my time with it. Such a great game. I love being back in Velen. Switch: Super Mario Wonder (backlog)
PS5: This week I platted Helldivers 2 and Street Fighter 6. So theres obviously only one thing to do. Play Helldivers 2 and Street Fighter 6. That is until Stellar Blade comes out. Switch: Supermario Wonder (backlog work) XSX: Nothing
Sidenote. SF6 might be the best modern fighting game Ive ever played. Its just so smooth. And Ive been having a lot of fun playing Helldivers with friends and strangers. Even had some randoms willing to help me with some coop trophies.
Switch and XSX: Nothing. PS5: I'm close to platting Helldivers 2 and Street Fighter 6 so that's my goal before Stellar Blade comes out. Have a wonderful weekend everybody.
Yeah. Its really sad that he is alone at his birthday party. Two guests and a price increase would have been better tbh. However, this set will look great surrounded by all the others.
I find myself a bit in a slump as of late. Plenty of games to play but as soon as I boot one up I just turn it off again. Except Halo Infinite. Im considering buying Helldivers 2 though... so maybe that.
Series X: Baldurs Gate 3, just got to act 2, hope the story picks up, game is a bit of a drag imo. PS5: Nothing, waiting for supposed the ff7r demo. Switch: Nothing.
Recently finished: Tekken 8, got the platinum in one sitting which was a first for me as far as trophies goes. Loved the story mode, best one yet. Fighting is awesome but a bit too easy tbh.
Depends on the game but, short answer. Yes. I cant stand spoilers. Makes me either want to stop playing or finish it just because I bought it, and not because I care.
Recently finished TotK. What a game! How Nintendo managed to top BotW is mind blowing to me.
I also earned the platinum for Alan Wake 2 this week. Another incredible gem I highly recommend.
Having completed those two games means my GOTY run only got one game left and that's BG3 on Series X.
HOWEVER, I'm very tempted to buy Tekken 8 so yeah... And to make things even more "difficult" I also want to preorder FF7 Rebirth because I never played the DLC for the first one which comes free with the preorder. I also wouldn't mind trying TLOU2's Rouge mode. Decisions... decisions... Have a good weekend everybody.
PS5: This week I have been absolutely hooked on Alan Wake 2 so I have put everything else on hold until I got the platinum. My Nintendo and Xbox are on a well deserved break.
It's -30c where I live so I'll be gaming a lot this weekend.
PS5: Alan Wake 2
Switch OLED: Zelda TotK
Series X: Baldur's Gate 3
Recently finished:
1. Super Mario Wonder
Such a fantastic and fun game. Played it coop with the missus. Had a great time. Many of the levels had a "wow" factor I found entertaining.
2. Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty
Unlocked all the endings and I must say, what a great game and DLC it is. Played Cyberpunk at release and hated it (even though I reached one ending) but now, the 2.0 version is another game completely and the DLC adds so much too it. I highly recommend this game even though it is a bit depressing.
I'm going hard on the gaming front this weekend and I love it.
PS5: Alan Wake 2 and GoWR Valhalla

It's crazy, I bought TotK on release and in the end it didn't even hit my top 3. I was shocked when I found out.
