With the new Tomb Raider games coming in the future I finally decided to start the 3rd one of the last trilogy. I really liked the 1st two and this one is shaping up to be more of the same. People call them Uncharted Clones but I don't see the problem with that.

Finished Banishers: Ghost of New Eden on PS5. Very pretty, hit a couple clipping issues/bugs. Overstayed a bit for me at just over 25 hours to complete; it definitely hit the point where I just started main lining about 18 hours in. Lot of content that I chose not to do. Good story too that I liked.

The retro collection sale didn't include the big pieces of furniture. Those have migrated to my other room and I've gotten my modern consoles off of their random furniture onto something much nicer looking.
PS4, PS5, PSTV, Xbox One X, Xbox 360, Wii U, Switch 2, PSVR all hooked up to this getup.

One of the systems I still have to beat a game for this year was gameboy color. Went to start Zelda Oracle Seasons but the save battery in it is dead. Sidetracked myself and played through 6 Golden Coins. Haven't played it since I was a teen. Still a damn good game.

Nesters Funky Bowling is an enjoyable play. I put 2 hours in; no matter how consistent I clicked, I couldn't get more than 4 strikes in a row. Got a 200, and discovered the only way to get credits is through a debug menu I called it. I'm counting it as beat since there is no way to "win" the game.

Finished T2D No Fate. Very short, start to finish on normal just over 47 min. Some replay value based on choices. This feels like the T2 game we should've had in the 90s. Games then were trash. Term on Sega CD completely awful; in fact this one felt a bit like that. Probably wait for a sale though.

No surprise here. Love a classic beat em up. Had a couple friends over and played start to finish, took about 90 minutes. Great visual appeal, beautiful animations. A joy to play.

Another down. Blood Wake on the OG Xbox. Twisted Metal in boats. Waaay too many escort missions. Game could've been cut in 1/2 and been better for it. Multiplayer arena combat is something I'd like to try with it at some point though. Visually very good, decent music, and fun gameplay.

Getting toward the end of the year and my usual goal of beating 1 game on each system I own is getting hard with little time left. Decided to do PS1 and 2 today. Time Crisis and Vampire Night. Both Lightgun shooters. TC wasn't too bad, VN was hard as hell. Both of course are well worth your time.

I do not regret being part of the problem, buying the updated version and sinking another 14hrs into it. The PS5 release is gorgeous and the game is so fun to play through. Also, now having dumped the online trophies I went for the plat too.
