Thanks for the heads up!

Why does this seem like thanks, but no thanks?

A game that went on sale today at the PS Store for $8.99/$5.99 (PS Plus) that I think that you and everyone else here might like is Battle Chasers: Nightwar.

It's already in my backlog, but yeah, it does look really good imho.

Actually I bought both Chaosbane and Battle Chasers.

[argyle]

I think I have Battle Chasers for the Switch...seems like it came out shortly after the system launched?

Games added: Kirby

Last week: Finished nada, played ER.

This week: More ER.

145+ hours into ER now. I'm getting a vague impression of the end approaching now. That said, still areas of the map untouched & other sections of the map I have been to with large sections unexplored. Massive game is massive.

I did fire up Kirby & play a couple of levels, and it's fun - will be a nice pallet cleanse after I finally finish w/ ER. Eventually....

Wow I think I'm 30 something hours in. Guess I'll still be playing this in the fall. Not that I'm complaining.

[argyle]

I think Tam has over 200 in it so far.

Kirby and the Forgotten Land looks really fun and the type of game that’s more my speed these days, the following video explains why something like Elden Ring for me (as crim would say) is too much:

[crimson_tide]

Yep, still can't with Elden Ring. They tried to sucker me in with Ming Na Wen ads but still nah. If it was Michelle Yeoh, I probably might of cracked. Maybe. Then realized it was Elden Ring and still noped out .

I own Nightwar! I keep meaning to play it...the comic was cool. When it like, you know, came out. Joe Mad was a great artist but slow as hell. Man liked his video games (makes sense he has his own studio now I guess). Red Monika was...a lot. I wonder if the game continues the comic story now, I haven't read it since college. I remember Battle Chasers just stopping...

Just stopped in to say I caved and bought Lost Judgment Ultimate Edition because that Kaito DLC looks flipping BALLER! He was my favorite character in the first game, homeboy was hilarious. Going to stop my slow Yakuza 4 progress and get into this one during spring break this year , 2 weeks away !

I still have Yakuza 1-7, Judgment and Lost Judgment to play. I plan on marathoning them when the mood strikes me.
