Re: Talking Point: What Was The Video Gaming 'Theme' Of 2022?

darkswabber

For me it was a year of catching up and playing games I’ve always wanted to play. From finally finishing the yakuza series including spin offs to finally playing uncharted 2 and finally playing the original 6 DK/DKC games on NES/SNES to finally playing persona 5 royal.

It’s also the year I got addicted to fortnite with no regrets, the year I accepted beating old games with rewind is a legit way to beat old games for me and the only way to do it with my low skill level.

And lastly it’s the year I got back into arcade racers, JRPGs and rhythm games after years of not playing those genres despite absolutely loving them as a kid.

I’m still playing Persona 5 Royal and Fortnite.

I did order a handful of switch games recently with River City Girls 1•2 and Harvestella but I won’t play those for a while. Seems like I’m getting some Xbox, Ps5 and Switch games for Christmas, I did ask for Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart and Gran Turismo 7 so that would be nice.

Just finished the story mode and 4th season pass of Chocobo GP for switch and also beat Donkey Kong Country 1, 2 and 3 for the first time ever last week, also NightShade.

Currently I’m at 198 unique games beaten since 2017 so I’m gonna beat 1 more game on the NSO virtual console apps and after that I’m gonna play Persona 5 Royal as game number 200 seeing how Persona 4 Golden got me to list and rank all my games beaten since 2017 in the first place.

Was playing Vampire Survivor on the Series X but I bought the Pokemon Switch OLED so I’m replaying some games to see how it looks and compares. Stuff like Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and “Pokemon Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl.

Also beat Forza Horizon 3 a few days ago and I’m anticipating the release of Pokemon Scarlet/Violet.

Decided to keep God of War Ragnarok as a Christmas gift to myself.

EDIT: started playing Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory to see how that looks on the OLED and I got hooked so I guess I’ll play that until pokemon releases.

Re: The Nintendo Switch Has Exceeded 114 Million Units Sold

@Quarth ps4 is still selling well but sony stopped tracking it. It sits around 125 million units sold but my guess is the actual number when it’ll be discontinued will be between 130m and 135m units sold.
That being said I think the switch will end up around the same number, probably a bit higher.

After beating Forza Horizon 4 and its 2 expansions recently I’ve decided to start playing Forza Horizon 3. Sadly the expansions for 3 have been delisted.

Also beat Super Mario Bros 2, Super Mario Bros 3 and Kirby’s Dreamland 3 in the past week so I started playing Kirby 64 a few days ago.

And like always some Fortnite.

Started playing Lego Batman: The VideoGame on ps3 after I discovered my Xbox 360 disc is missing.

Also started playing The Crew 2 on my ps5.

Finally I’m trying to get the last Fortnitemares quest done in Fortnite on switch and ps5.

Not much as I’m going to a retro game convention on Sunday after 6 months of saving up for it.

Yakuza: Like a Dragon. Last one of the maingames I need to beat, after that I only have dead souls left for the spin offs (counting judgment, lost judgment and Fist of the North Star: Lost Paradise).

Besides that fortnite should have a end of season event this weekend so probably that too.

After those are done I might pick Life is Strange 2 back up or I might start with Strangers of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origins

@clianvXAi only people that refuse to try out fortnite have that opinion.
It literally does the F2P model perfectly. All cosmetics, one time payment gives acces to every subsequent battle pass if you manage to get every pass to level 60/200. And a free skin every 2nd pass if you manage to get to 100/200 every time. The game is well made, offers a wide variety of game modes, has amazing events etc.

Beat we ❤️ Katamari this week and got the platinum for Ghost of Tsushima.

Playing Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Torna the Golden Country at the moment and still want to finish up Life is Strange 2. Also like every week some fortnite.

Not much besides those. Maybe I’ll start Two Point Campus or something else.
