Re: The Backlog Check-In Vol. 459: 10/19/26: Final Fantasy Resonance Edition

Hey all!

Played: Ghost Trick

Beat: Nothing

Bought: Nothing

So ummm...somehow Ghost Trick became my train game? I am finding it just kinda delightful. It's about murder just to be clear. But it's a very clever little Capcom puzzle visual novel thing. If this keeps my interest,, I might go ...

Re: The Backlog Check-In Vol. 457: 10/3/26: Kingdom Hearts Edition

MF DOOM!!!!! Madvilliany might be right in the top 5 of my favorite hip hop albums not to mention I was completely unaware how much of my favorite he and people like J Dilla (RIP) produced. Danger Mouse was a gym bro staple when I first moved to the city and was peak swole. Good stuff, I knew I ...

Platinum"d: Pirate Yakuza...ok, so I wasn't done pirating yet. Now I'm done. I went back in to mop up the remainder of the bounties and just kept plugging away for another couple hours and there was a platinum. I was way closer than I thought.

Played: FF16, DQ Builders 2 (back on that train grind ...

Re: The Backlog Check-In Vol. 451: 8/22/26: Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 2 Edition

I figured old man. It was never directed at you :P . I apologize if it came across that way. Sony is going to do what makes them the most money because capitalism. Vinyl still exists after all so there's clearly room for games to exist physically. Though I think Sony's haphazard announcement was ...

Bruh, I JUST started playing my PS5. Most of the games I played this summer were on PS Plus. I ain't boycotting **** :P ! I get it but I really think we need to recognize that we have a part in this because so many people choose digital over physical. I own a disc PS5 and a disc willy likely never ...

Hey all, busy summer. HOWEVER, I have news on a moment. So my wife was at the NAACP conference the week before last. Came home for a for days last week and we went to Sesame Place for a one of the little one's bday on Sunday (oh, happy belated birthday argyle!). Then she went to Ghana on Tuesday and ...

Re: The Backlog Check-In Vol. 445: 7/13/26: Culdcept Begins Edition

So after not feeling super hyped about Rift Apart, I then got to the planet where you smack crystals to switch dimensions, did an obscene amount of grinding, got the missile launcher, got the hover boots and Nefarious was mad extra. So I just beat it because it's all I did with my spare time the ...
