Pokémon Scarlet - really good game minus the obvious performance issues.

I've finished the main game / most of the post game, just need to work on the Pokedex now which will take some time.

Playing through A plagues tale requiem with some halo infinite MP on the side. 

I don't know what I'll jump into next, have to check my backlog. 

That game's poster reminds me of Grave of Fireflies by Studio Ghibli. Man, I don't want to watch that film ever again.

Portal RTX

...soooo pretty.

Edit: and I'm done.  Forgot how short the game is.

Now playing Quake Dimension of the Past. 

 

FYI:  Amazon Prime gaming has Quake w/ “The Scourge of Armagon," “Dissolution of Eternity,” “Dimension of the Past,” and “Dimension of the Machine" for free.

Very nearly platinumed Death Stranding Directors Cut on PS5 it's been a most expected awesome journey considering I thought I'd be bored shitless when I started it months ago!

Finally got Platinum with 250hrs playtime and the only game played over the last 3.5 months! It will be missed.

Trying Return to Monkey Island now, apparently it's really good.

It is - there was only one thing that upset me but I won’t spoil it.

 

I have been bored and wanted to play something new

 

i totally missed the outer worlds - when people said it was amazing I always though it was the outer wilds game they talk about which I did not like

outer wilds is like borderlands 1 and even better (I got sick of crazy amounts of loot in later versions)

 

And the cheesy alien world RPG got me hooked - playing though the expansions now - though some talk is too “politically correct” it is almost laughable- I enjoy a good laugh

Mass Effect Legendary 

 

wow I am having totally different experience then when I tried ME2 and then Me1 afterwards 

me2 was good before and me1 was not

 

now everything is amazing - I enjoyed me1 like I could not before and playing me2 now 

 

It is real nice to have such improved games and playing them in a row with the same character

 

 

as I love sci fi - this is a treat I did not expect to be honest

Just finished Stray last night. Unbelievable game, albeit short.

I didn't expect it to be as gritty, yet beautiful as it is. Soundtrack is on point, and a few callbacks to HL2 as well that I certainly appreciated.

People who whine about Stray because it is a “walking simulator” and not dead souls like game just don’t get it

 

i loved stay for the atmosphere- story and gameplay were good enough to for me to keep exploring the world that fascinated me. 
 

I really enjoyed stray a lot. I am not sure it is a game to write more lore about - but for a few hours of pure wondering about it was fantastic 

 

 

ps. Almost done ME2 legendary and it is a lot of fun - now that I stared from the beginning and know the lore - everything seems more exciting- then jumping in ME2 with zero knowledge like I did last time or trying to catch up on me1 when it was super dated in graphics and controls already.

 

Last time I quit me3 early on because i did not feel the game - now if all my character decisions carry on - this will make so much more sense 

 

TLDR - Mass Effect Legendary- if you like sci-fi and did not already enjoy the games - it is a good time to try it out

 

i did not like the idea of constantly remaking games but in this case the remade trilogy makes perfect sense

Totally agree. I actually need to finish the legendary trilogy. I stopped somewhere on the first game and never went back, but I was thoroughly enjoying the game. One of the last good Bioware games. I also need to finish DA: Origins for that matter. :p

    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
