I’m slowly making my way through DQXIS. I’ve never completed a DQ game before (despite trying VII and VIII). Hopefully this time will be different.

I also plan to play Zombieland Double Tap: Road Trip. Yes it’s expensive, but I love twin stick shooters and got the physical version so don’t mind paying a bit extra.

Might also play more Grid: Autosport!

Water Ski. It's almost as old as I am, and very basic, but I like that Hamster are releasing games that are a bit obscure and don't make it to the usual retro collections. It's stupidly hard, though.

I’m playing more Road Fighter, trying to break into the top 10 on High Score mode. Not sure I’ll manage it, though.

Also playing Grave Keeper. It’s frustrating in places, and the dialogue is woeful (“when you next encount him”), but I kinda like it.

I finished SageBush within 2 hours of downloading it. The story is decent, and it’s very atmospheric, but it’s also really short.

@Daftbomb. They are VERY different types of game, too. Grave Keeper is a rather simple twin stick shooter game with basic rpg elements and some truly awful translation for the instructions/dialogue.

I’m on a retro kick this weekend. Road Fighter is one of my favourite arcade games, so the Arcade Archives release is keeping me busy.

I’ve also started Doom 3, as I never really gave it a chance back when it came out.

Oh, and I’m playing The Sinking City on Xbone because I like the Lovecraftian elements.

I downloaded and beat Crypt of the Serpent King. It’s a first person dungeon crawler, but with real time combat rather than the “turn based” style of Etrian Odyssey.
It’s decent enough, especially for the price, but the lack of variety does hamper enjoyment a little. Each level only has a single enemy type and a boss, which males things a bit samey.
Will now carry on with Star Sky and Hammerwatch.
