Eventually yes.. its getting good reviews

I started it today. It is fun, and it’s fucking hard. The bosses are absolute bastards to learn and then to defeat. Looks like there are 16 levels. I’ve done 11 so far. I feel like I’ll be lucky to beat it. I’ve read that when you do, you unlock hard mode and need to beat that to get them
“good ending.” I have no interest in that at all.

There are aspects of this that feel like Ninja Gaiden, but it feels more like Strider with really shitty dialogue. The game is fun, but it doesn’t feel serious like the original games did.

Currently playing Cyberpunk 2077 and Donkey Kong Bananza.

I've never really played an Assassins Creed game but Mirage just came to Gamepass so figured I'd check it out. If the first hour is any indication, it will have the worst voice acting of any game I've ever played. It's brutal.

Indiana Jones DLC in a few weeks that I'm just counting down the days to.

The voice acting in Odyssey was horrible as well, but it really amuses me. I’m impressed by how much they record.

I loved Indy. I don’t think I’ll get to the dlc right away, but I look forward to hearing your thoughts once you’ve played it. I’ve played a lot this year, and I think Indy was my favorite experience overall.

I pre-ordered a physical copy of the new Shinobi and I got a Steam Key with it. Does anyone want the Steam Key? I assume anyone can use it.

Silksong has provided a great first impression, but I haven't really been in the right frame of mind to play it much.

Had silksong not dropped I would've bought shinobi or gaiden

I never beat Bart's Nightmare on the SNES when I was a kid. So I've been playing it on an emulator. Gosh this game is unintuitive, annoying, and ridiculously difficult. Half the time I don't know what I'm even supposed to do. But I can't stop playing it.

whats that emulator name?

This is an Anbernic RG353P. It runs on Android and has got a bunch of emulators installed. You can load your own ROMs or you can order a pre-loaded SD card with a bunch of games. Runs great on games up to Playstation 1.

It's already pretty old, there are plenty more advanced retro handhelds out there, but I still use and love mine

I almost buy one thats built like an arcade. Im happy i didnt do it for home, but thats something the office will get eventually.

all the 90s simpsons games were awful and really hard.

forgot about that one.

The Simpson's: Hit & Run is a GTA-like and pretty good. It's probably the best Simpson game.

I finally used an internet map/guide (IGN) to complete the “Where are the wells” side quest on Zelda TOTK.

Hadn’t played any video games in quite a while and no real desire to any time soon.

I would rather get some sleep!

Why not just set the sheika sensor to detect wells?

Cursed Golf. It's a bitch.

Too many games!

Skate isn’t perfect but the gameplay is fun.
