Posted in Who Witchers the Witchmen?

I love Witcher 3, basically the game of that generation but I'm not sure if I will hop on right away, I still kinda' love how I left Geralt but there's no way this new dlc isn't going to be amazing so I can't just not play it eventually

Metal Gear Solid 4 is finally out and free from PS3 jail, my feelings towards this game have basically fallen off almost entirely since it released but at the same time I can still enjoy it and appreciate certain elements of it in a vacuum. I have mixed feelings on the gameplay, mostly after Act 2 where it just sort of stops even pretending to be a game about a man sneaking through somewhere, but I can't deny I've enjoyed what I played so far, it could just be the hype of the game being on PS5 though.

As a chapter in the MGS saga, this is a pretty spineless, overly apologetic love letter to people who hated MGS2, but it wraps up the entire saga in such a clumsy way that the entire series catches strays so I'm interested to see if there's anyone who cares about that stuff still, especially with MGS2 stocks rising over the last few decades. I dunno' how much I have in me to tear into this game at this point but I guess you'll find out over the next few days, I will still have fun at least.

Not exactly me reading but someone reading it to me I guess but has anyone tried Audible? I'm trying it now with Adachi and Shimamura and I'm really enjoying it

Ominusha 3: Demon's Siege - After coming from both 1 and 2 thinking they were a tad less than I remember (but still good games) I was wondering…is this actually better than 2? So far it's a lot smoother, feels the best to play and has interesting ideas. One half of the game is the protagonist of the first game, Samanosuke, being time warped to modern France and Jean Reno being sent back to Ancient Japan. I can't say much bad about it so far to be honest but Jean Reno's combat is less fun than Samonosuke's even if his sword/chain whips have a lot of cool utility I enjoy taking advantage of. Wasn't going to start this so soon but Onimusha 4 came outon PSN and I got paranoid and figured that meant 3 wasn't being remastered…

Golden Sun - Not very far but despite a slow start this holds up so far, can'y wait to get more Djinn.

Did a lot of missions in one sitting for Liberty City Stories just now and the portable friendly design of it all really goes well with my focused playthroughs of these game, which feels like a direct contrast to what I said about San Andreas a few weeks ago, I'm enjoying LCS a lot more so far! It's not just the design of the game, it's the characters and story, the weirdos you do missions for in this are much more 'fun' than some of the cast in SA and I like the whole Mafia vibe it has.
