Got these in the mail today so been playing them. I am a GiTS fan so not sure why it took this long for me to get this game. Psi Ops popped in for a couple min and will play more later. Seems kinda fun.

Very nice indeed.

Prince of persia, The lost crown. Playing it on my switch portable, and having a blast.  For an indie title, Neva,  is great.  Highly recommend



Slipstream was not what I was expecting it to be, it's like that racing game everyone had for the game gear but with modern features and drifting. I mean, it's okay if you like simplicity but I would not recommend.



Can't put down Expedition 33. I'm on my second playthrough on the highest difficulty

Nice one, it's soooo damn good isn't it!?!? What a remarkable game. Go for the platinum, it's really fun. I'm in the middle of my fourth playthrough on expert with rules applied that I have to reload the save if one character gets KO'd, among some slight other limitations to Pictos and it was fine until the middle of the game and my pace slowed down. Must be 110+ hours now and I still find myself going bavk in for short burts. Once I finish this I'm gonna do a speed run on normal and see how fast I can finish the campaign. There's a lot of juice you can squeeze out of the game and it's one of those rarities, like with Sekiro or The Witcher 3 which never looses it's fun factor, well at least for now, Let's see in 5 years.

I got 3 more PS2 games in the mail.  Awaiting a few more. I only put them in for about 20 minutes to see if they worked and to try them. Contra Shattered Soldier. I like Neo Contra more, but this is pretty good in the few minutes I played.  Seven Samurai 20XX. Def a B action game of its era, but I generally love my B games. It has some issues, but it should be fun for what it is. Lastly, what came in is Musashi Samurai Legend. I like the PS1 games a lot. This is def Kingdom Hearts era Nomura art, but on a technical side, it looks nice. Seems pretty solid early. When the rest of the games come in the mail, I will make a final decision on what I want to commit to finishing right now.



Bite my shiny metal cockpit!

I tried Cave Crave PSVR2 last night. I made it two minutes in the tutorial before panic started to set in and had to take the headset off. 

It was not a good idea to start this while high... You start having to crawl through a narrow twisty mud tunnel, can't see where it goes, no clue how long. Then squeeze the triggers to expel your breath to pull yourself through long parts where the tunnel vertically narrows further with the message, if you try to breath in you'll get stuck as you chest tries to expand. I made it through the first narrow part, then noped out at the second on lol.

It looked too real in my then state of mind and my imagination got out of control. I'll try again tonight while sober haha.

This won't be me

I'm going to be honest. The movie maybe terrible, but so far this game is not. It's a pretty solid Devil May Cry clone. It's the second best western take on the DMC formula after Soulstice on PS5/XSX.

Since Finishing FFXVI I played a ton more games:

-Mining Mechs

 A very simple and cheap (sometimes less than 2€ on sale) steamworld like game.  You get a robot and you have to dig down and collect gems.
How deeper you go how more valuable the gems get and you can use them to upgrade your robot or buy a new one.  Easy in concept and on sale it is almost a must for all the people who are into those kind of games.  You will get addicted and want to continue playing it till you complete it (5-15 hours range).

- Deep Space Anomaly/sky survivors (Skip them, except if you want to get some easy achievment)

- Neighbours back from hell

  

  Simple promise, your neighbour is annoying as F**k and you have to mess with him, basically get into his houseand mess with his food/bath/Chair etc and make him scared without getting caught.   I enjoy it but you are probably tired of it before you completed the game still worth a try.

- Spray Paint Simulator

  Instead of Powerwashing you spray paint,  I personally did not like that one so much, it is more annoying and slow but it got some quality of life updates recently that makes it doable....Power wash is so much more fun tho.

- Mika and the witch Mountain

  I love Kiki's delivery service so the idea of playing a witch delivering stuff in a village sounded interesting but I dislike that you kind of have to find out yourself where to deliver things at some point without some hints.  Just don't want to play a game with a completion guide next to me. Pity.

- Glover

Yeah the performance is horrible, it is maybe better to play it on N64...

-COD WWII (2018)

Only the campaign and really disliked it, the driving sections were just bad, story is mid, turret sections feel so outdated even for its time..

-Xuan Yuan Sword 7

After Playing FFXVI I wasn't sure I wanted to play another Action adventure game with RPG elements but I enjoyed it a lot.
Gameplay felt so smooth, beating enemies in 2-3 hits feels so good after FFXVI where I started to dread encounters because they could take some time...

The setting; story is a hit and miss and all depends if you like games based in China.

Game can feel repetitive combat wise but because it goes so smooth it did not really bother me at all.

It has a minigame , A chess kind of game that I normally would hate but it is done well and the challenge later on is even fun.

If you don't mind asian settings and low budget games keep this one on your check out list.

-Arcade Archives 2 Air Combat 22

Sigh, I love Air Combat 1 and I knew this is a prequel Arcade game but I wanted to support them in the hope they will port more Air Combat/Ace Combat games.

Anyway if you ever had too much beer and had eat your hangover away with a drum, well the morning after shift will take longer than beating this game. (Less than 20 min)..

- Koa and the Five Pirates of Mara

Little Platform game that is enjoyable and easy to complete, perfect game priced around 7€ on sale.  If you can't get enough of platform games check it out.

- Super Sami Roll

 Started fine but the controls make it hard and then it just becomes frustrating, I bailed out after the first 10 levels.

- Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3-4

  I get why some people are not happy with 4's changes and I don't like they cut some levels/cut music and some game decisions that feel dumb (You have to beat the whole game to unlock solo tour for a secondary character).  Still they added more characters/New levels aswell and if it gets some updates it becomes a great game now I would give it an 8-8.5.  

Also Completed Vampire Survivors latest April Update, like always one of the best indie experience of the generation for me.
