No, but that's because I have absolutely no concept of time anymore and events from 2 weeks ago and events from yesterday merge into one and it's hard to remember anymore when they happened, so everything feels wasted

Evil Within 2 I can highly recommend! I’m playing Resident Evil games all month, I just finished 5 and I plan on tackling Operation Racoon and Revelations 2 this month.

Played TEW2 when it came out last year, I've been meaning to give the WiiU Project Zero game a for shake though so I'll probably do that.

it's hosed up that paper mario the thousand year door would be one of the easiest games to update visually because the only thing about its art style that really ages is the texture resolution and since everything is so simple and defined it isn't too hard to redraw everything in the exact same style and nintendo's probably never going to rerelease it

I think I’ll be trying Parasite Eve 1 and 2 this month myself. I’d like to sneak Silent Hill 3 in there as well.

Both Evil Within games are fuckin great and I highly recommend them. The first one is kinda janky but in a really charming way

today i tried to use slowdown to cheat through the mario party 1 minigames where you have to rotate the analog stick because i don't want to break my analog stick and i got to the one where you have to pedal really hard to cast light on a boo and it didn't work

parasite eve 1 is so great and amazing, partly because of how unique it is/was. Non giant titty woman main character, sort of ATB/Bullet Hell combat, it even has a story that mostly isn't garbage. I'm not sure there has ever been anything like it since then really.

I'm playing through Celeste for the third time this year and it's been several months since I played and I am loving up such simple platforming stuff that I mastered the last time and it is very frustrating

My game of the month is the Stranger Things phone game. Seriously it's like Crystalis plus Zelda plus Earthbound and whoever made it deserves to be given infinite monies to make more awesome retro games.

It has side characters other than "koopa" and "toad" and therefore Miyamoto would have to be dead and buried before it would be allowed back in front of the public.

Miyamoto is fine with weird characters, it is rpg mechanics he wants to toss completely from internal Nintendo development. Let the affiliates and contractors handle that poo poo
