It's on my list, and I'm hoping to get to it this year, but there are a few ahead of it right now. I've heard nothing but great things about it, and it looks like it's right up my alley.

Re: The Backlog Check-in Vol. 324: 3/16/24: Alone in the Dark/Dragon’s Dogma II/Princess Peach: Showtime!/Rise of the Ro

I'm hearing really good things about Dragon's Dogma 2 Yeah, it’s been getting great reviews. The new Alone in the Dark and Rise of the Ronin have been getting good reviews too. My list of PS5 games that I want continues to grow, I’m hoping to get one this Christmas. I've been hearing more mid revie...

Crim continues to make the rest of us look bad. ;) Keep it up, sir! Glad you have enjoyed Guacamelee izzy. I don't recall getting too stuck on a boss - it has been a minute tho. The only thing I really recall was a very difficult platforming section, and I want to say it was for one of the optional ...

Lies of P - I played some more of this last night, and I gotta say, the more I play the more I like it. I love the Bioshock vibes I get from the environments and the general "steampunk automatons gone haywire" thing that's going on. I've taken down another boss as well, this one on my firs...

I played Guacamelee on PS4 as well (I think) - could have been Vita tho. Was a while back. What I do remember is that some of the platforming gets NASTY towards the end. It's still a good game, just has some frustrating parts.

I still need to play the second one.

Re: Argyle's GOTY 2023 Thread!

06. River City Girls 10860801-river-city-girls-screenshot.jpg There is a very, very short list of developers I still trust to give me a good time with a game, enough so that all I really need to know is that they were the ones making it to sell me on it. WayForward is on that list. So I went into R...

I heard about that this morning - very sad. :( He was instrumental in shaping both anime and JRPGs.
