Haven't played anything lately due to school lol.

Only game I think I beat lately is Mega Man 11.

Gonna binge Smash Ultimate the minute it comes out.

Bought a GameCube controller, Kirby Star Allies, and Celeste during Black Friday.

No planned purchases for the time being.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

1. Currently playing Spyro: Reignited Trilogy, Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu, DELTARUNE, and Child of Light.
2. In the past month, I have finished playing Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate.
3. Will be playing Super Smash Bros Ultimate, Kirby Star Allies, Guacamelee, and Monster Hunter World.
4. Haven't done any.
5. Not sure. Thinking of getting the Pokeball Plus for Mew, though.
6. Here's my YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/pcgamecrazy



First of all: For the poll question I had to vote Smash Bros obviously, but I'm also pretty excited for Katamari Damacy (I played a little of it on PS2 on a convention many years ago) and the Sega Genesis Collection. I never owned a Sega Genesis, so this will be my first contact with stuff like Phantasy Star and Shining.

What games are you currently playing?

Well, my most recent purchases were Pokemon Let's Go and Civilization VI. I have played a bit Pokemon and sunk into a session of Civilization. I played the first Civilization and Colonization back on DOS, but since then haven't followed the series, so some mechanics are new to me. And I have to say, it is even more complex than in the past. I like that in a game. I should win my first session though soon, I am already at 1880 or so and in the information age, nearly all from the technology tree learned. So it shouldn't take too long. I completely missed the window on religion though, so I had to extinct a civilization that was close to taking a religious win.

What games have you completed in the past month?

Due to work it is hard to put enough time into a game to finish it, but the last one I played through completely was Starlink.

What games are you planning to play soon?

Well, December has started, so Smash obviously. My also preordered Sega Genesis collection. I wanna buy Sega Ages Phantasy Star too then it comes out. Katamari Damacy I haven't preordered. It seems it is not available physical here. Maybe I buy digital or I get a japanese copy, unsure. But for the moment I wait that it is shown here in europe, maybe we get a physical edition after all.

What gaming related purchase have you made recently?

Civ VI and Pokemon Let's Go and a Pokeball Plus. I also got Layers of Fear.

What gaming related purchase are you planning to make in the future?

Well, Smash, Genesis Collection and Katamari.

Share some gaming stuff, etc (i.e. your youtube channel, drawings, etc)?

I think about playing Shadow Warrior. I see it is made like Duke Nukem 3D (which I liked) and maybe that is fun too.

Right now I'm playing a game called Dog Sled Saga. It's basically a dog sled manager game where you take your own team to the top of the dog sled circuit. It has a nice pixelated art style and is just a very relaxing game to play overall. I've completed two or three games in the last month, not entirely sure how long ago it was that I finished Yakuza Zero. More recently I've played through Final Fantasy VIII and Gravity Rush 2.

Don't really know what game I'm gonna play next. I've been wanting to play another JRPG soon, but there are a lot of options right now. I've got Suikoden 2, Wild Arms 3, Ni No Kuni II, Lost Odyssey, Grandia 2 all still waiting to be played, and I've also wanted to go back and replay some titles like The Legend of Dragoon and Rogue Galaxy. So we'll see. As far as new purchases go, I've been buying some games for christmas mostly. I got Ni No Kuni II, Monster Hunter World, Shadow of the Colossus Remake and Nier: Automata for the PS4, and I also got a few games from the PS Store christmas sale. Honestly, I've bought too many games recently. It's gonna take forever to get around to playing all of them. 

For that reason I'm also not planning on buying any more games in the near future. Too much stuff in my backlog as it is.

Maybe I should've said I reached the point where I saw the credits for the game.

Lately I've been playing The Legend of Zelda (NES) a lot. I've also been playing BotW again in the past few days, since I finally bought the DLC.

My brother has Smash pre-ordered, so I'll play that a bit when it comes out, but not too much since I have exams soon.

I'm also interested in Sega Mega Drive Classics, which is releasing on the same day as Smash, but I'll probably wait with buying it until I actually have time to play it (so February or March I guess).

Almost nothing for the past couple of weeks except 2-3 hours of Zelda:BOTW

What games have you completed in the past month?
Valkyria Chronicles 4 a month ago

Zelda:BOTW, Need to finally finish Shining Resonance:Refrain, Maybe Persona Dancing games and Smash Ultimate
