I wasn't super into the idea of getting the next Spider Man as I don't play the previous ones much any more, but when I do the thing I enjoy most is just swinging around and fighting random opponents. The story parts are quite boring. But after looking at a Digital Foundry video I've decided the tech upgrades alone are probably worth it. I'll probably be getting it sometime in the next couple months.

I told my kid I'll get the next Mario when he poops on the toilet consistently. Win-win -- he doesn't, I save 70 dollars; he does, I get to play the new Mario. Fingers crossed.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

How much are PS5s in the US currently? I took one look at their price around release and haven't thought about it since. I don't play enough vidya games to justify that shit!

Alan Wake is my favorite game ever, but I would say it probably hasn't aged well from a gameplay perspective. The story is still incredible, at least IMO. Alan Wake 2 is a very different style of game.

The original Alan Wake (the 360 version, not the remaster) was just on sale on Xbox for like $2, so I grabbed that.

The Remaster was free for Playstation Plus members a few months back too. I picked it up, but have never played it.
