Games Beaten

-Super Bomberman R (Switch)

Bomberman is always best in multiplayer and this installment delivers. It's not the best multiplayer Bomberman ever, certainly, but it has enough to keep us happy. My kids loved it! The single player consists of a handful of mission types set in handcrafted stages and it's fine. The boss fights recall the feeling of the 3D adventure Bomberman games I loved on the N64 and I wish the whole game was like that but oh well. The story, though silly, does have a ton of personality.

Games Bought

After a dead May, June was slightly less dead. I picked up a copy of TimeSplitters 2 (GameCube), which was definitely a nostagic for-the-collection buy. I played this game so much back when it was new. Also bought a copy of XCOM 2 (PS4) because it was new for $7. Now I just ought to play the first game lol. And Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night (Switch) came out! PS+ was a couple of games I already owned.

Now Playing

-Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night (Switch)

After years of waiting, it's finally here! I haven't gotten to play it too much (I'm at the second boss) but I'm really enjoying it.

-Yakuza Kiwami 2 (PS4)

Finally got back to playing this game after a month of not touching it.

-Picross S (Switch)

Down to the last two pages of normal puzzles!

-Destiny 2 (PS4)

A new season has started and brought with it a new PvE mode, the Menagerie. It's pretty cool!

-Earth Defense Force 2025 (PS3)

Really close to finishing Inferno with my Ranger, but I need to grind for armor to improve my survivability Undecided

Ah, Timesplitters 2. Loved that game way back when. I hear it might make a comeback. 

I have to see if I own XCOM 2. If not, I'm going to check sales today. I heard that the Gears of War tactical game coming soon is very similar. That's good news.

There's gonna be a Gears of War tactical game? That could be really cool.

I still haven't completed all the side content in Kiwami 2. And I already bought Judgment ...

There is so much side content. I can't imagine trying to finish it all O_O

Side stories, I should say.

Games ERADICATED!!

I loved Time Splitters 2. 

I'm tempted to get Bloodstained, but I'm gonna wait to see if they patch the Switch version to fix its problems.

Did you ever play TimeSplitters Future Perfect? Definitely the best in the series, especially when playing co-op. As for Bloodstained, it is perfectly playable. Graphics definitely took a noticeable hit though. Everything looks like it's not textured enough.
