Like some others said. The next game, as I rarely replay games. But my palette cleansers used to be xtreme legends dynasty warriors 8, stardew valley and minecraft.
These days it’s usually rhythm games, in particular hatsune miku: project diva future tone and theatrhythm.
I beat Firewatch on my Xbox Series X last week and I continued playing Ace Attorney: Justice for All on Switch which I’m at the final episode for. I also started playing Baten Kaitos Remastered which is fun so far.
Beyond that I bought a handful of games including Gato Robotto, The Messenger, Neon White, Warhammer 40.000 Boltgun, Loop Hero and The Many Pieces of Mr. Coo which I might start too.
@Duncanballs the Japanese one is a regular release. It skipped the US and the European one is a limited release indeed. Glad I pre ordered it because it sold out everywhere.
I beat Starfield yesterday on the Xbox Series X after playing it for almost 70 hours. Currently continuing my playthrough of Ace Attorney: Justice for All I started on my Switch before Starfield.
Planning on starting Firewatch later and finally starting either God of War: Ghost of Sparta or Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time on Ps3. Might also start Baten Kaitos 1+2 HD on the switch.
After beating Ratchet & Clank: Quest for Booty and Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara on my Ps3 this week and A Short Hike and Gris on my Xbox Series X this week I started Playing Starfield on my Xbox Series X and continued playing Ace Attorney: Justice for All on my Switch.
Once I’m done with those I’m thinking about playing Firewatch, TOEM and God of War: Ghost of Sparta.
@MirrorFate2 we don’t know if there will or won’t be a secret character in the dlc. Casey wasn’t know to be in the game either until it released and people unlocked him. He wasn’t shown in official marketing footage until the dlc trailers.
I beat Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective on Switch a few days ago and it was amazing, cried a bit at the end. I’m currently playing Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney which is great too, just started the 4th episode.
Pre installed Starfield on my Xbox Series X which I finally found my cautious hype for again. Don’t trust Microsoft anymore TBH but I still really hope Starfield and Forza Motorsport 8 will hit it out of the ballpark.
On Ps5 it’s just Fortnite this week, finishing up some quests before the next season releases on friday. Although I’m strongly debating on starting Horizon: Forbidden West.
@eltomo you can only claim patents if you’re the first. Nintendo can prevent others from using these mechanics. Other companies can’t retroactively make Nintendo pay up for not having capitalized on it with a patent.
Beat Final Fantasy I, II and III last week on Switch without any knowledge about 2 and 3 and with minor knowledge about 1, alongside a replay of Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade and a blind playthrough of Final Fantasy VII Remake Intermission on Ps5.
Started Bayonetta on Switch which I don’t know anything about beyond having played chapter 1 and 2 on WiiU years ago.
@Pat_trick the mortal kombat released for the 10th anniversary, I think MK annihilation, has almost 60 playable characters. Since then they introduced a good 30 extra ones. In no one is its legacy roster small.
Need to beat the 5 Royal Reverie levels of We Love Katamari Reroll after that I’m done with the remake.
I’m still playing Fortnite WILDS, bought the Air Max Airie skin and the Ciri and Yennefer skins from The Witcher
Beyond that I was thinking about starting Final Fantasy VI or Final Fantasy VII through the Pixel Collection
I also just placed an order for Bloodstained: Circle of the Moon Chronicles, The Ace Attorney Trilogy, Katamari Damacy Reroll and Ghost Trick at Play-Asia so that’s exciting.
You can get 5 levelups through save the world daily, 5 through creative, half a level up through daily quests and the 14 weeklies and 13 transformers quests together give like 25 levelups atm.
Last time I raced through the BP was when I started playing during ch3 s3 to get vader.
@Daniel36 the biggest new feature fortnite added to keep the game interesting was sliding last june. Fortnite’s pretty straightforward, what it does to keep the game interesting is events and collabs.
@Anti-Matter just like how the 80s made children toys of M rated movies. Nothing new. The versions in fortnite don’t have the things that made them R rated in the cinema.
@Anti-Matter why shouldn’t it. It’s child friendly, it’s as non violent as a shooter can be, you don’t kill people you jus knock them down, the game is colourful and friendly.
Isn’t that everything you always claim games should be?
I started playing a year ago this month because a friend kept sharing clips. Then one of my childhood friends and his wife gifted me the BattlePass. Been playing a lot ever since and I absolutely love the game.
I’ve gotten 6 or so of my friends into fortnite too and they got their friends into the game. All people that either said fortnite was bad or not for them.
If you never tried fortnite but the trailers keep tempting you, even if you are sure it isn’t for you, give it a try. The game is a lot of fun.
I started playing We Love Katamari Reroll + Royal Reverie on my Switch. It looks amazing on the OLED and it’s clear the game was remade instead of remastered (played the original last year). I also finally recieved Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters from Play-Asia.
Besides that I’m playing Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 WILDS on my ps5 and switch and I’m playing the Metal Slug Anthology on my psp.
@roy130390 fortnite skins are like toys in a toybox to me. Children would give darth vader a gun to fight Spider-Man with a lightsaber and have optimus prime have tea time with a xenomorph.
And I’m all in for it. Started playing last june and put over 1.000 hours into fortnite since, got 6 of my friends hooked to, all of them swore they would never touch it ever, and we all have a jolly good time together now.
Just beat Ratchet & Clank Tools of Destruction this morning on ps3 after beating Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart the past week on ps5. Also reached level 100 in Fortnite and beat Ghostwire: Tokyo.
Might play Redfall on the Xbox Series X but I also surprised my friendgroup with a NSO+EP Family Plan on my cost so we can play stuff like Mario Kart 64 and GoldenEye together.
I’m still playing through Pokemon Let’s Go Eevee on the Switch and Tchia on the Ps5.
Also started working through the Mega Drive games on Nintendo Switch Online. Beat Flicky, Golden Axe and Dr. Robotnik’s Mean Bean Machine Yesterday and I’m currently playing Thunder Force II.
@Anti-Matter if you click on the + button when a physical cartridge is inserted and go to “my Nintendo Rewards Programme” (5th tab) and click on “earn gold points (game card version only)” you get them too.
@Anti-Matter gold points are used to buy games on the eshop. Every €1 spend on the eshop gives 5 points. Every €1 spend on a physical game gives 1 point. Every point translates to €0,01 on the eshop.
First game played was 1 on iOS First game beaten was world of on vita First mainline game beaten was 13 on ps3 Unless you count me dropping 12 at the final phase of the final boss and looking up the cutscenes online.
Why review this as a package when they’re 6 individual releases of varying quality?
Like VI is easily better than an 8/10 and II is nowhere close to an 8/10.
Not just mod videos, also romhacks, fangames and self imposed challenges within the vanilla game (which, if anyone remembers, some studios at Nintendo like gamefreak and TPC consider to be the same as romhacks.)
Beat Sonic The Hedgehog 2 and Final Fantasy IX last week and I’m currently playing Pokemon Let’s Go Eevee on the Switch and Tchia and Ghostwire: Tokyo on the Ps5
Most indies and square enix games are timed exclusive to the switch. Not really special TBH, it’s just a healthier market to choose if you can only focus on 1 console first with sales determining ports. It’s usually switch>ps4/5 and pc>xbox.
Beat Metroid Fusion yesterday and Kirby and The Forgotten Land a few days ago.
Currently playing Captain Toad Treasure Tracker on the Switch which is fun. Also playing Forza Horizon 2 on the Xbox Series X which is the only forza game I haven’t played yet. Lastly I just bought The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim VR for PS4/PSVR1 which I’ll probably play on my PS5.

Re: Review: Baten Kaitos I & II HD Remaster - A Welcome, If Flawed, Return For Monolith Soft's GameCube Duo
@Duncanballs the Japanese one is a regular release. It skipped the US and the European one is a limited release indeed.
Glad I pre ordered it because it sold out everywhere.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (September 2nd)
I beat Ace Attorney: Phoenix Wright this week and I’m currently halfway through Ace Attorney: Justice for All.
Gonna play A Short Hike before starting Starfield on Wednesday.
Re: Karai And Usagi Kick Butt In Radical New TMNT: Shredder's Revenge DLC Trailer
@MirrorFate2 we don’t know if there will or won’t be a secret character in the dlc.

He wasn’t shown in official marketing footage until the dlc trailers.
Re: Review: Bomb Rush Cyberfunk - Bleeding Cool Style But Always In Jet Set's Shadow
Getting this because the developer is dutch and I really like dreamcast games.

Beat Catherine Full Body and The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening on the Switch the past week.
I’m currently playing DC SuperHero Girls: Teen Power and I’m meaning to play Ghost Trick next.
I’m also finally back from vacation to France so I’m planning on playing Herc’s adventure on Ps5 and A Short Hike on Xbox Series X
Also will finish up Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 before the next season in 2 weeks.

Re: Talking Point: How Do You Store Your Games Collection?
I have a neat physical game collection of 1.350+ games spread across 5 ikea billy bookcases.
Just bought my 123rd physical switch game yesterday.
About 900 of my games are across playstation (about 430 ps3 games, 160 ps2 games and 120 ps4 games with the remainder being vita, psp, ps1 and ps5).
About 25 sega games, mainly dreamcast.
About 55 xbox games, mainly 360.
And about 500+ Nintendo games, mainly switch, 3ds and ds.

Re: Mortal Kombat 1 Reveals Six Fighters In Official Kombat Pack DLC
@andyg1412 it’s not just an SNES and MD game. The 9th MK was also called MK1 which was a ps3, X360 and psvita game.
And similarly to MK9 being 1, MK12 is called 1 because it’s a timeline reset while still being a sequel.
Re: The Witcher III On Switch Finally Gets DLC Inspired By The Netflix Series
Neat, was planning on replaying it on switch soon anyway. Last playthrough was at launch on ps4.
Re: PSA: For Goodness Sake, Don't Fall For This Nintendo Switch 2 'Leak'
Announcement this year with Q1 2024 release is obvious. That falls in line with a normal console cycle.
But the box and design are obviously fake.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel - Castlevania: Order Of Ecclesia
Play Order of Ecclessia for the first time last year and loved it.
Had to go with the European/Japanese boxart.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (July 15th)
I beat Final Fantasy XV Royal Edition last saterday on Ps5 and I’m currently replaying Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade.
I’m also still playing Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 Wilds on my Switch and Ps5 with friends.
Lastly I’m thinking of starting Final Fantasy VII Remastered and/or Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII Reunion on the Switch.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (July 8th)
I’m almost done with Final Fantasy XV on Ps5. Thinking about going for the platinum trophy.
After that I’m probably gonna replay Persona 4 Dancing All Night on my PsVita.
Might also start Final Fantasy VII Remastered on the Switch as I’m still in a Final Fantasy mood.
Finally I started Ravenlock on my Xbox Series X.

After barely playing any gamea for 2 weeks I started and beat LocoRoco on ps4 a few days ago and I’m currently playing through LocoRoco 2.
A friend is gifting me The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom today so I’ll be playing that too.

Re: Sonic The Hedgehog Gets Four New Lego Sets, Features Tails And Amy
I think the piece count in the tails set is incorrect because if it’s really €40 it means it’s the lego set with the best price to parts ratio ever.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (April 1st)
Almost done with Persona 5 Strikers on Switch and I’m gonna play Sonic The Hedgehog 1 and 2 on NSO next and Castlevania 1.
Was also debating on finally playing Uncharted 3 on Ps5.
Finally I’m gonna start Final Fantasy IX as soon as possible because I’m really in the mood for Final Fantasy.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (March 25th)
Beat Kirby’s Dreamland 2 and BurgerTime Deluxe on NSO last week and Forza Horizon 2 on xbox
