I am back! (hopefully) with properly scheduled weekly thread.

Not much change from what I mentioned in last thread couple of days ago.

Still playing Sniper Elite 4, I think I am about 60-70% done. And got back into Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 1 after taking a break over the holidays.

What about all of you? What have you been playing?

And while we are at it, what are your new year’s gaming resolution? Play more games? Play less games? Don’t pre-order? Always pre-order?

I don’t have anything as big as resolution, but I have been meaning to focus on older (J)RPGs from my wishlist / backlog that I haven’t had time for. So, unless something changes, I am planning to go to my “patient gamer” roots and ignore (most of the) new stuff.

    Finally! Congratulations on finishing Baten Kaitos and getting all the achievements.

    I loved first Mario + Rabbits, Kingdom Battle, and it’s DLC, and I have heard Spark of Hope is even better, so good luck with that!

    How did you like the Shantae overall?

      I stand by what I said originally: Shantae is great when you’re in the dungeons, but annoying in the overworld. I’d say it’s definitely worth looking at for the visuals though. The game is so ambitious that I have to wonder why they made it for the GameBoy in the first place. When the game released, the GameBoy Advance and the GameCube were already out for a year, too! I can only assume development took a really long time and the overall bad timing affected sales enough to get the sequel cancelled. Luckily, it’s being revived now, so I might actually wait for that to keep playing the series in order.
