CC is in my backlog, I'll get around to it one day.

And crim, I'm tellin' ya you will love Adventure Pals. It's definitely kid-friendly, but it's got a great sense of humor and is just a really fun game no matter how old you are. The game is digital joy.

EDIT: I just noticed my gamer card, please no one judge me by having played Avengers. I did NOT buy it. I played it off of GamePass because they were giving 500 points if you got one achievement in it, so I played it last night until one popped. That's all, I swear, I just uninstalled it!

Argyle, fam... they're putting Spider Man all up and through that game this month... it's like $16 on sale now...I didn't like playing it but I did like Kamala Kahn and the story was good (if utterly nonsensical like on an every Arkham after Asylum level)...imma probably actually buy that ish now and give it a super undeserved second chance. No judgement from me bruh ;) .

And we're giving Adventure Pals a go this weekend :D !

Oh ok. While my list was primarily aimed at cane which is why no anime games were included :P, it can be for everyone here. I spent a while compiling it, so the more people that it might benefit the better.

Is it really that bad? I thought that it looked good enough to pick up for cheap.

Sorry, I totally missed that post. I will check them out for sure! Thanks!

Let me know if any jump out at you as I can provide more information about them if I played them.

I gave them a good look and grabbed these three:

A Knight's Quest
Aggelos
Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom

There were plenty of others that I'm sure I'd like, but I'm going to show some restraint. Nine games bought in a week is a lot for me. :P

Thanks again for the word!

She might like Ary and the Secret of Seasons, and A Knight’s Quest both of which are currently on sale at the PS Store. They’re cartoonish, comical and cute third person action platformers.

I hope that you like them. You might also want to consider getting Hard West for $2 since I know that you like tactical turn-based strategy games and western games, and Shadows: Awakening for $12 and The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing 1, 2, and 3 for $3-$4 each since they’re Diablo type games.

I appreciate the word, Phase. I checked those out and they look cool, but I'm going to stand pat at nine game purchases this week. ;)
