There's a few on there I'm quite excited for, with GTA 6, 007, and Lego Batman being the biggest ones. There's probably a few more that I could become interested in as they get closer to their release date.

Missing from the list, but I hope Danganronpa 2x2 lives up to the standards of the previous games.

That's a cool addition. As much as I love Out Run, it's nice to see something different here.

It's not on the list, but I did rather enjoy Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac.

Recently started playing Rhythm Doctor. Catchy music, fun gameplay, I'm really enjoying it so far.

And also doing some Like a Dragon: Ishin. I've beaten the main story, so I'm going through the various substories.

I had a lot of fun with the base game when it first came out. But it's been so long since then, and I've moved on.

This robot master sounds familiar:

My 5 most played PS games are:

1. Hitman: World of Assassination
2. Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time
3. Yakuza 5 Remastered
4. Like a Dragon: Ishin
5. The Quarry

It surely must be about time for a new Ace Attorney. Plus, aside from Professor Layton vs Phoenix Wright, they're running out of Ace Attorney games to port.

As expected, though it'll probably be a while off as they're working on other projects.

8/15, that's quite good for me.

Oh wow. I figured it had sold well, but 35 million is such a surreal value.

It might be a good strategy for some releases, but I'm not a fan. I enjoy the build-up and hype that comes with an upcoming game.

Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac. I've been trying to 100% it, and I've just got the Sonic collab boss left to speedrun on it. Also playing some Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney Dual Destinies and Like a Dragon Ishin.

It's a shame, but I'm not that bothered by the extra delay.

I'd be up for a new one, though I'll wait for official confirmation before trusting this rumour.

PCSX2 has come a long way. Last time I looked into it, Stuntman was a notoriously difficult problem, with some levels being impossible due to emulation bugs. Now, according to someone on the wiki, it can be cleared 100%.

Yeah, I usually do some horror stuff around Halloween, or at the very least something spooky themed. This year, I've been playing The Quarry and Luigi's Mansion, and watched a couple of slasher movies.

I'm in the mood for something spooky, so I was planning on starting The Quarry. I've also been playing some Like a Dragon: Ishin along with Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac. And if there's time, maybe a bit of Hitman: World of Assassination and Kirby's Adventure.

I'd forgotten this was coming out. If the final release is actually good then I'd be interested. But I'll definitely wait and see on the sidelines, and not preorder.

It's a shame, but not really surprising. Still, it's a reminder that I really ought to check out Bloodlines 1 at some point.

LOTR sure feels like a franchise where it should be possible to produce more brilliant games than what they've been doing recently. The Jackson movie games were fine, but I really liked the turn-based game The Third Age back in the PS2 era. That was a weird storyline, basically just a knock-off fellowship following behind the true fellowship, but the game was good fun.

I've got a lot of nostalgia for the original World 2, and so I'm rather enjoying this remake so far. Still early on in it, so can't properly judge it yet.

Hopefully they remake World 3 at some point. I've never played that one, but would sure like to.

I'm far too used to the JP voices, the dubs just sound weird to me. The original story had a lot of pacing issues, so hopefully they can refine it here. But I'll probably skip this entry for now. I only played the remastered 3 fairly recently, so there's other Yakuza games I'd prefer to play first.

I played 3 just a couple of years ago, so I might skip over a remake any time soon. Plenty of other Yakuza games for me to play first.

It has a lovely sunny location, but suffers from a weaker story and pacing issues.

I had a lot of fun with this originally, and I'm not normally one for multiplayer games. I was starting to lose interest by the time Epic bought it, and them changing it to require an Epic account was the point I decided I've had enough of it.

It was fun, but it feels like it's run it's course now.

That announcement came out of nowhere. I'm a bit cautious of them touching the story after all this time, but hopefully the new extra scenario will be up to the standards of the original.

I wouldn't say I'm 100% sold just yet, but I'm certainly tempted to get this.

Looks good. My one complaint is that this Bond seems a bit less suave than normal, coming across as more smug here. But overall, I'm liking what I'm seeing here.

The developers have clearly borrowed a lot from their Hitman games, but I'm glad to see the vehicle sections and gunfights in here. It wouldn't be a Bond game without them.

It's a bit odd to give a third-party game a dedicated state of play, though I'm excited to see more of 007 First Light.

The game has its flaws, but I enjoyed my time with the original version. I'm in no rush to get the remake though.

I've been fairly interested in getting this for a while now. The main thing that's made me hold off was the sheer volume of DLCs. That, and waiting to see if the UK gets an update. It's the oldest section of the game, so it doesn't look as great as some of the more recently updated regions.

It's a dumb authoritarian law that's easily circumvented with the likes of VPNs or the Tor browser. But it's funny to hear about the more creative ways people are getting around it.

I'm hoping that statement was just a clunky way of saying that they're going to avoid censorship in this game, but them stirring up the culture wars isn't a good look.

I did enjoy playing through the remaster (never had the original), but this news is a bit surprising.

Studio Trigger did a wonderful job with Edgerunners 1. I'm excited to see what direction they take with the new season.

Mainly carrying on with Fantasy Life i and The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy, though I did also finish off Wario Land 3 earlier.

Looks promising so far. I'll have to see more gameplay, but initial impressions are great.

A new 2D platformer or better yet a 3D platformer could be brilliant, though I don't have a lot of faith in Ubisoft these days.

I'm probably going to enjoy this based on what I've been reading, plus I was very fond of the original game. However, the lack of reviews so far is making me a bit cautious.

It looks incredible so far, though I'll need to see some gameplay eventually.

@Gravytrain From what I've played of it so far, it's been great other than a few minor nitpicks. In terms of difficulty, there's some challenge to it, but it's not been overly frustrating yet. If you fail in battle, you can just retry the current wave, so it's fairly forgiving. Plus, you can freely switch it between regular difficulty and easy mode if you wanted.

I'm enjoying it so far. Hopefully things work out for the developers, as they do seem to be taking a risk with this.

I'm not too fussed by the delay. Being this far from release, and with only that one trailer, I'm not too hyped yet. Once it actually releases, I'll surely be signing a different tune.

I've come this far into the generation without a PS5. At this point, it doesn't really feel worth getting one this late into the generation. I'll probably keep with my PS4 and my current PC until I get around to upgrading my PC.

For me, the big draw of consoles was always the exclusives. But other than Nintendo, everything now pretty much comes to PC eventually. Plus, there's less of the weird and wonderful AA games that used to pad out Sony's release schedule.

Not yet. I'd barely heard anything about this game until the reviews dropped. The glowing reviews for it took me by surprise.

I'd like to play it eventually, but I'm in no rush for it.

Up to 40x30 puzzles according to the game's description. Nice to see some larger puzzle sizes here. I played a bit of the older Nintendo 3DS games, and I think that only capped out at 15x15 sizes.

I've been getting more selective about which games I buy at launch. Further price rises will just increase that, and I'll be waiting for the sales more often.

I've hit that old limit. I generally just add anything that I'm remotely interested in, even though it's unlikely I'll get to play the majority of games on my list.

Yakuza 5. Even though I've already played through Yakuza 0-4, it's great to see that Yakuza 5 is still finding ways to mix things up and offer surprises.
