I’ve been on a little bit of a wrap-up streak lately and have managed to really beat a handful of half-finished video games from 2023 which have been staring, longingly at me for the previous few months. Beforehand, I had simply lined Metroid Prime Remastered up with a pleasant rug, caught a plant pot in entrance of Sonic Superstars and hung an image in the way in which of Chants of Sennaar, however now I’ve truly managed to tick them off. I’ve by no means been on this place earlier than. What comes subsequent?
Fact be informed, I’m pondering that it is going to be Outer Wilds. Having been informed for years “it’s important to play this recreation, however I can not inform you something about it and do not you dare Google it,” I’m sort of intrigued to see what it’s all about. I’ve additionally been again on the Baldur’s Gate 3 grind this week having taken a break a short time again. I am across the 20-hour mark, however I believe I’ve cleared one thing like 0.1% of the sport? Spending 19.5 hours within the character creator will try this to you, I suppose…

Asterix & Obelix Slap them All! 2 continues to supply infinite barrages of Roman troopers to pummel whereas Arcade Archives: Pole Place II is a stark reminder of how a lot better I was at these video games. My bodily editions of each Radiant Silvergun and Alien: Isolation are lastly in my fingers creating the proper weekend excuse to play them some extra. And, regardless of the technical disappointments, I hope to proceed making progress on Batman: Arkham Knight too.
Recreation of the Week is none aside from my all-time favorite (non-wrestling) N64 recreation. Jet Power Gemini was not one thing I used to be anticipating to drop on NSO however then once more neither was GoldenEye 007. It’s good to see Uncommon being correctly represented on the service. So… Blast Corps when?

I will be leaping into that and I am trying ahead to the brand new spirits and amiibo after they arrive early subsequent yr. Oh, and I am trying ahead to shredding it up this weekend in 1080° Snowboarding as effectively.

I am nonetheless hooked on Dave The Diver, and the lure of some DLC coming subsequent week mainly means it is all I will be enjoying for the remainder of the yr. Ooops…? What a disgrace it is so darn good. And my Grandia II playthrough continues and a gradual tempo. I am on the finish of the yr burnout stage — an excessive amount of to play, do, kind out, and so forth. So I believe some espresso and an excellent ebook will truly be on the docket.
