Whatcha all playing?

I've got a few on my list this week.

Ufo 50 continues to be one of my favorite purchases in a long time. It's the best collection of games since the orange box imo.

The new Zelda has also been stellar. The frame rate issues are certainly unfortunate, and it may be worth it for some to wait on a more powerful switch 2 to play this title, but I highly recommend checking it out at some point. The game is really creative and the Hyrule you get to explore is super fun imo.

I want to get back to the plucky squire, but these games have kept me busy unfortunately

Let me try this

I have been playing City of Heroes, which is a superhero MMO and I'm surprised how much I dig it despite multiplayer games not being my thing. PVE is much more comfortable for me and the game let's you make any kind of hero you want, and u can make ur own battle cry as well which is funny.

Also it has one of the best gender options in gaming: Male, Female or Huge. Badass

Another one I'm playing rn is Alex Kidd in Miracle World DX, this is a remaster of the old Alex Kidd in Miracle World game which I never played but I'm digging this remaster as well. The new graphics and art is gorgeous and the ability to switch seamlessly from new to old graphics is spectacular. I have always loved old 2D side-scroller even though they are always more challenging than modern games, I like having to fight through something after multiple tries. I was having trouble with the game and after reaching one of the later levels of the game, my save file glitched and reset everything(cloud sync issue probably, I need to turn that off) which almost made me quit the game but I had learned so much so I gave it another try and was surprised that I got to where I was in an hour and beat the boss I was on before in first time. Very very satisfying

There are some other games I'm playing rn but I don't wanna write too long so here are just their names: CLeM (amazing, intriguing puzzle game), Skies of Arcadia (emulated through Flycast with RetroArch, has achievements even!) and Peggle which I'm trying to 100% even after 30 hours haha
