High on Life.
No idea what it was about before I bought it today, other than some form of "wacky space shooter".
There seems to be some involvement from the Rick & Morty guys, so... nothing truly insufferable yet. Your first (only?) gun is voiced by Morty.

Also it has the full Tanny & T.rex movie playing on a TV, so im currently watching that.

Edit:
It's VERY Rick&Morty.

Ive been loving High On Life, it's so fun and the FPS feels solid. I like R&M feels more toned down overall which is nice to much just does my head in.

Been playing Orcs Must Die 3 through with a mate fucking fun as but it feels like it would benefit from 4 player coop. Finished off Arcade mode of House of Dead tonight as well such a fucking awesome game.

Metal Gear Solid 3 on PS2. Was benchmarking the run on Extreme for Foxhound rank.

Then the PS2 tired of me being sucks at it, then cause a corruption and crash the game instantly.
 
Armored Core For Answer. I'm muddling through and shaking off the cobwebs for 6.
 
Played Entropy: Zero 2. It's a free Half-life 2 mod on steam.
ModDB's mod of the year competition is over in about a day and I think this will win this year. I've been seeing alot of positive reviews of it and having played it myself, I agree with it. It's probably the closest thing to a Half-Life sequel people are going to get, even if it runs on HL2E2's engine and not Source 2.
 
Death Stranding. I got to chapter 2, liking it so far. Weird, cool, and a bit spooky.

Got a few qualms with it; controls are a tad finicky and there's quite a bit of contrived exposition to explain the world to the player, but it's not too bad.

Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order. Played it when it came out, but with a sequel on the way I figured I'd refresh my memory.
 
Decided to replay the first Ratchet and Clank. Still a damn fun game. And a lot easier than I remember. But I didn't do a new game + run, one and done is good for me.

And it's more fun than the remake, which toned down a lot of the irreverent humor and tried to make everyone nicer.

Currently playing Dragon Quest XI for the first time. I bought it for the switch, so I can kill spare time while going to/from work. It's a nice little comfy game. So far, I've just beaten the Sand Killer but I will try to give my still early impressions: The Dragon Ball aesthetic is in full force this time and the music is not that bad as some people said it was, the overworld music is in fact tiresome after a while but it can be changed for the DQ VIII ost if you downloaded the free DLC.

Normal difficulty is really easy for a DQ main series, but that can also be fixed with the Draconian challenge for stronger monsters. Also, the game is not really that grindy if you know how to strategize the combat with buffs and debuffs. Overall, it's a nice jrpg.

I had this downloaded already and gave it a shot for the last couple of days.
It's alright! I thought it was maybe a factorio kinda thing from whatever description I'd read but it's definitely nothing that sophisticated. Decent fun though, it just suffers from a bad case of timers on shit that doesn't need it so you end up standing around waiting a weird amount for a hectic hoard-type game (compounded in some cases by multiple unique hidden build menus you only use once, so fuck your multitasking).
But the actual shooting shit is fun. Minigun+mininuke wrecks fucking everything to the point that I eventually unequipped everything else.

Definitely a pirate rather than buy situation though. That power grid bug is a motherfucker (PS there's a debug console command you can google that fixes it if anyone else runs into that).

I gotta say that surprise twist at the end blew me away: that the devs are russian or something and not chinese lol

I was having fun with this until I hit a game breaking bug where the campaign would not progress. Piece of shit.
 
So with the exception of a couple of XBOX 360 and PS3 games, 2023 will strictly be Nintendo Switch/Wii U related.

Right now, currently, I’m just playing Driver for the PS1.

It is objectively a piece of shit, but what happened? There's some retarded unintuitive stuff you can get stuck on that aren't bugs, just dumb

Can't access the new areas. Keeps telling me to check the comms screen but nope, nothing. I've built every building that doesn't need special resources already

like you haven't left the starting map at all?
Yeah that sounds like a bug unless you just haven't built the comms centre/scanner hub/satellite/whatever its called. (Which iirc does need special resources: there's a single invisible patch of cobalt on the starting map that you're supposed to use the personal geo scanner to find, so it's still possible you're just retarded?)

No, I built it and got the mission to finish the warp gate or whatever. None of the other maps open up so I can't get platimum and the other elements I need. The screen where you're suppossed to find new locations only has my starting map.

It's been a rough Christmas this year for me so as a gift to myself I bought Faith: The Unholy Trinity and its soundtrack.

It's probably the scariest game I've played in years. It's actually impressive just how effective the horror in the Unholy Trinity is and it achieves it through fucking Atari graphics.

Signalis. A survival horror game that apes late ps1 survival horror games like Silent Hill. Conserve ammo, find keycards, and survive, all while german text and anime graphics flash on the screen.

Well that sucks I heard it was more a horror adventure game.

Currently playing Inmost its a simple platformer but kind of fun.
 
Got with some friends and hopped back on Space Engineers while we all have time off for the holidays. Built a giant planetary base with a massive welder wall. I forgot how equally fun and janky the shipbuilding is in this game.
 
Candies n' Curses is really addictive lol. It's one of those tryium games where you get to pay $5 to unlock faster resource rate but you can beat it without spending a dime!

Same with Epic Battle Fantasy 5 lol. Way better than they have any right to be. You can unlock DLC dungeons and NG+ but if you're not a min-maxing tryhard the main mode will do just fine.
 
I picked up Sonic Frontiers on whim as I haven't played a Sonic game since I was a kid. It's ok. Kinda boring and sameish.
