Right now:




My next local multiplayer game will be Mario Kart World, and I’m eyeing Metaphor Refantazio as my next single player game. Maybe the Switch 2 Welcome Tour shoulda-been-a-pack-in if you count that as a game.

Still Halo: Infinte. My fav franchise, sans Guardians. Still love how it hasn’t changed too much. I do like fast travel, not sure I like the bombs wheel and grapple. Mine seems to default to this sensor thingie and it took me the longest to figure out how to change it. But same old Halo is perfect for me now. It’s like a comfort game. I really want to get into Doom: The Dark Ages, but Halo’s got me in its grips right now. At least I’m finally using the Xbox again.

I've been playing through Nine Sols, but I may be too old for some of the parrying needed. Hit a boss that I can't get down. The game has a Story Mode, but you can't go back once you change it.

I can hear the me who got through Sekiro yelling every time I miss the timing on a parry and die.

Disney Speedstorm - new half season Thursday.
Disney Dreamlight Valley
Revolving picross game

Right now Expedition 33. I still have to finish Kingdom Come 2. I plan on playing both Pillars of Eternity games soon, and finishing Atomfall at some point. And if I am bored maybe Doom: The Dark Ages.

I am a few hours in to The Last of Us Part II (remastered). Beautiful looking visuals, as expected.

However,



Well I'm having a fantastic picross run. Piczle Cross Adventure went on sale for a buck and I'm about halfway at 5 hours. Then Picto Quest went on sale for 79 cents, also about 10 hours to finish, haven't gotten to it. Then Squeakcross released and it's just massive, that's the one I'm finishing first, just started, loved the demo. Then when all of that is done, keep at Piczle Cross Rune Factory which is the most massive.

Monster Hunter Wilds (Playstation 5)

Shadow of the Tomb Raider, after playing the first two many years ago.

I'm having the same non-intuitive-puzzle problem I had with Indiana Jones, but the feel for the franchise is gradually coming back to me.

^that's next on my list after I finish TLoU 2.

The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
(SW2)

Playing Doom: The Dark Ages

I still prefer 2016 and Eternal, but I am having fun.

High on Life (XBSX)

Finished Wind Waker.

I was planning on starting up Indiana Jones, but I may jump into Link's Awakening and see how much better it looks on the 2.

Just Mario Kart World for me.

I’m determined to play games I already own… so I pulled out my PS4 disc and used it to download the PS5 version of…

Jedi Fallen Order (PS5)

I put 3 hours into it tonight. Still getting use to the controls.

Weeks after release, I'm finally playing a Switch 2 game other than Welcome Tour.

Spending most of my time with Dune Awakening, but I'm also jumping between Mario Kart World/Splatoon 3/Metroid Dread on Switch 2 when I'm away from my PC.

Took yet another break from Final Fantasy VII Rebirth to play through the story campaigns of Mortal Kombat 1. I had a great time with the New Era (although I felt it was a missed opportunity by not letting you play as JCVD Johnny Cage during the big finale), but Khaos Reigns fizzled out towards the end. A shame since the latter showed promise.
