Metroid Prime, until 4 comes out on Thursday

Re: What are you playing? (December 2025)
 

I'm still early into Doom: The Dark Ages, having only finished the second level. At my current pace of a level a day, that'll take most of December, so hopefully I pick up the pace! I would say "especially with Metroid Prime 4 coming out this week", but I think I still might prioritize Game Pass stuff before my subscription expires, which would make Indiana Jones next.

Still smashing my way through Donkey Kong Bananza.

Woke up to find Jigsaw Puzzles Ultimate's Advent Calendar was up! (along with a 600+ piece monthly puzzle which gives you a token to get one of the unlockable puzzles you want regardless of size) Every day of December either gives you a puzzle, puzzle unlock tokens, golden pieces (have to build up and the bigger the puzzle the more pieces needed), etc. Today's puzzle is quite meaty. I'll be doing a lot of puzzling this month!

As usual, I'm playing Games from a Decade ago:

Darksiders III

Just bought Shadows of Morodor on Sale so I may be starting that soon.

Re: What are you playing? (December 2025)
 

I just started Ball X Pit after finishing Winter Burrow.

Ball X Pit is addicting.

I have no fucking clue what I want to play and it’s frustrating as fuck.

Re: What are you playing? (December 2025)
 

My extended break from Final Fantasy VII: REBIRTH is still ongoing. As such, I am currently replaying this gem:

Picked up on sale and played through Islets over the weekend. Very charming little metroidvania.

Re: What are you playing? (December 2025)
 

Got Immortals: Rise of Fenyx free from Ubisoft and have been playing it nonstop. What a fun game, having way more fun with it than I did with Breath of the Wild.

Re: What are you playing? (December 2025)
 

I started Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, aiming to finish that before my Game Pass Ultimate subscription expires in a few weeks. I just couldn’t really get into it. Maybe it’s one I’ll revisit down the road in case it’s more of a mood thing.

I don’t really know what’s next for me, especially given my enormous backlog! In the meantime, I got LEGO Party! for my wife as a Christmas gift, and I’m having fun with that. Errr, more than she is at the moment.

Arc Raiders. My buddy and I are having a blast rolling around just doing shit. First game in a long time I have enjoyed for this long.

I've been playing High On Life this week and it's so weird but fun.
