I had never played a minecraft until the Switch version. Cannot believe I missed this game for that long.



Around the Network

I am currently playing Dark Souls 3, and I still have Uncharted 4 in the box.

At some point, I also plan to play the Xenoblade games as well.

Undertale?
I just finished it a day ago.

It was quite great.



In the last decade I've been late to play most everything. Still have a launch day Assassin's Creed 2 in the cellophane. There are exceptions every year, new games that jump ahead in the queue, but yeah, I'm behind for the most part.

I'm playing through Fallout GOTY edition right now. Snagged it for 5 bucks earlier this week, so it was certainly a good deal. Aside from that, I have played plenty of games late (ME trilogy, Skyrim, Fallout NV, all the Halo games till the MCC, almost all the Assassins Creed games, ect).



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

I just finished Lego city undercover on switch.
I was always interested but didn't want to get a wii u for one game.



Bet with Intrinsic:

The Switch will outsell 3DS (based on VGchartz numbers), according to me, while Intrinsic thinks the opposite will hold true. One month avatar control for the loser's avatar.

I need to play RDR.

Judge me.



Most of them, seeing that I grew up loving games but having a very limited games collection, because my mom didn't condone it as a way to spend my time and my dad being to poor to give me any outside of birthdays and christmas.

That's also the reason I'm much more of a handheld gamer nowadays, despite owning a playstation and three games as well as a thousand demo disks, I only got to play it when my mom was out and I had to hook it up and unhook it every time I wanted to play because she didn't want the 'thing' in the living room. Much easier to just ie in bed and play your gameboy than go through that hassle every time.

I remember saving up for months to be able to buy the legend of zelda oracle of seasons after being gifted ages for my birthday by my dad. So I had a few games that I kept replaying and replaying until I was old enough to have enough funds to actually buy my own stuff. I won my DS in a contest, because there was no way I could actually afford one it came with Professor Layton and the Curious Village, wich had just released at the time. I was ecstatic.

So, yeah I could actually feasibly do a SuperNovas never played:____ series.



I missed Xenogears.

Passed it as another "733t billy bad ass ponytale aZn and robots fighting" game that was prevalent at the time, didn't even know it was a RPG.

Played it during 360/PS3 and it became my #1 favorite game bumping Final Fantasy II (IV) off the pedestal. Deepest most mind blowing story of any JRPG to date.

Which is cool because now I can genuinely affirm it's not nostalgia when I bring it up because I played it for the first time myself when it was already three generations old, confirming that old RPGs truly are timeless.



Almost all of the games I play. I just finished Mutant Mudds (2012), and just started Swords & Soldiers (2009). I recently played The Wind Waker HD, since I missed it on the GameCube. That was originally a 2002 game. I have been playing Splatoon recently. That is only a 2015 game.
