Yeah. Looks pretty sweet. Shame I don't have a Ps5.


Looking for a new game to beat. Recents I've beaten are FF7 remake, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Borderlands 3, Diablo 2 Ressurected. Probably going to finish Rise of the Tomb Raider and then maybe Hellblade Senua's sacrifice before Horizon Zero Dawn 2 comes out. Haven't gotten Age of Empires 4 yet, so that's a possibility too.

Epic is doing their 15 days of free games. I am not sure how many days are left but some games have been pretty damn good.

They also have a great sale and unlimited $10 off coupons.

I got Metro Exodus and Borderlands 3 for $9.98 total. LOL

If you're into RPGs, I've been playing Tales of Arise and it's been pretty good. I'm about 75 hours into it but I like to do all the side missions and stuff.

Hollow Knight - best g'damn indie game ever and arguably overall; it is excellent, and incredible when you consider it was developed by three guys in Australia. $7.49

Dead Cells - the ultimate action roguelike side scroller. $14.99

Hob - indie adventure/platformer. Unique and interesting; pure adventure in that there is no dialogue or written guides - the gameplay tells the story (rather than exposition) $9.99

Hades - another fantastic action roguelike game with fantastic art style and cool Greek mythology premise $16.24

Ori (two titles) - Blind Forest is the first installment, Will of the Wisps is the second. Both are excellent. Former is $4.99, latter is $9.89.

Chill/stoner games (think Journey):

GRIS - this game is a work of art. From a game studio in Spain. It is like playing a watercolor painting. Absolutely beautiful game. $4.24

ABZU - fun chill game where you explore the ocean and uncover mysteries of Atlantis $6.99

RiME - adventure/exploration game, also out of Spain. Beautiful and atmospheric. $10.49

Journey - iconic atmospheric adventure game. $7.49

The image is not quite right as the trim is not red, it's black. Still, it looks pretty cool and I'm having a blast with this. Games included are Mortal Kombat™, Mortal Kombat II™, Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3™, Joust™, Defender™, Rampage™, Gauntlet™, Paperboy™, Rootbeer Tapper™, Bubbles™, Toobin™, and Wizard of Wor.

Also, I just ordered a cabinet that has Donkey Kong (one of my all time favorites) and a ton of other games on it. Was hoping to get it before New Year's but sadly, it won't be here until early January.

yep. I build those. Have built 3 so far. My latest project was a pedestal with all the joysticks, trackball, tron handle, light guns, etc.

Working on a virtual pinball cabinet now. Obsessed with it, actually. They are fun hobbies.

You seem to enjoy roguelikes/lites (my favorite category). It's similarish to slay the spire, but still different. Also, it's got some interesting other trappings. I suggest not spoiling yourself.

Holy cow! Deep Rock Galactic is free for PS+ users in January. Yall are in for a massive treat.

I was super into arcade coin-op games back in 2005. I had a converted "Centipede" cabinet that I painted black. I replaced the monitor with a wells gardner and the joysticks with new Happs ones. The JAMMA board in the cabinet when i got it was Street Fighter II. I was new to this and had the cabinet with just SF2 for about 2 years or so. Then I found out that you could swap out the JAMMA board and it was ON! I bought so many JAMMA boards off of eBay along with the marquees - it became a passion. I had an acrylic template that I would use to size up the marquee for my cabinet and take it to a specialty company here in town that would cut the marquee down to size. Fun times! Sold the arcade machine and my Black Knight 2000 pinball machine to a fellow in Oklahoma who was converting his garage to an arcade room.

So Playstation direct is offering Nioh Collection for the PS5 for $39.99. I have the PS4 version of Nioh that I got on Playstation Plus for free and I have Nioh 2 which upgraded to the PS5 version. I know the PS5 Nioh Collection comes with all the DLC. Has anyone who has played them provide whether it's worth getting or should I just stick with what I got?

Monster Rancher 1 and 2 released on steam last week. I'm addicted all over again. I wasn't super pumped about the $30 price tag but my OG copy wasn't going to last much longer anyway.

wife picked up Just Cause 4 for me as a stocking stuffer; she bought it on a whim as it was on sale for like $9 and figured I could use a new (new to me) game to occupy me in the doldrums of winter.

never heard of it or played it; haven't played it yet. anyone have thoughts on it?
