Yikes! I totally abandoned gaming here. 2024 hasn't started off well either, so gaming has been suffering greatly.

Looking to re-build the collection again with some proper updates.

Hoping to make a return to regular gaming this week. I will probably be focused on NES and SNES while I work on sorting things out.

2023 has been a rotten year, no doubt about it.

Life has got me at a stand still at the moment, so I'm taking a break from gaming. Not sure when I will resume, but it will likely be sooner rather than later.

I'm also considering abandoning trophy hunting as well, since I've lost the desire to continue it with all these cheap Platinum games all around now.

Perhaps a retro only trophy hunting account, which I've already started and may just continue with - [Link]

We will see what happens

Sucks that the newest version of Doom and Doom II doesn't have online multiplayer. I had to get help from my 2 brothers and borrow 2 extra controllers just to beat Level 29 on Co-Op Nightmare!

PS5 and 4K TV? *Drools*

I have now become true UHD!

Been holding back on the PS5 gaming until I get a new TV set up, hopefully by the end of the year.

Until then, I'm just randomly cleaning up some started games.

Congrats on the PS5!

PS5! That is all.

Couple of gaming side projects I've been working on, for those who may be wondering what's going on (outside of me adding/filtering games on here):

--------
Legendary Gaming (PSN Retro Games): [Link]

--------
Wishlist Shrinkage: Hunting down games I previously owned. Most recent additions include Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection, Tekken Hybrid, and Midway Arcade Origins (to be added shortly)

---------
More to come!

Scrapping the RPG retro thing, mostly on a count of me not being able to focus on it like I want to...

Nice idea! I can't be bothered to sink time into an rpg at this point. I would like too though...

RPG Retro 2022: A year of old school RPG's from the NES/SNES era.

Every month I intend to go back in time and play some of the great classics from the 20th Century.

The list so far:
(January) Chrono Trigger (SNES/PS1)
(February) Dragon Warrior II (NES)
(March) Dragon Warrior III (NES)
(April) Dragon Warrior IV (NES)

...More to come!

Just letting everyone know that I'm not dead, and still planning on getting back into gaming again. It's been a rather slow, and somewhat stupid, time for me right now as I focus more on RL priorities.

With that being said, I will likely be focusing on NES(!) gaming in the foreseeable future.

Good to hear about the PS4! I'm glad that I was able to find a brand new GBA SP for a decent price. I'm also looking forward to all the amazing games on the handheld.

I really enjoyed The Walking Dead on the Vita!

Yeah, Sony is finally taking it out back and putting it out of it's misery it seems. I don't understand why the need exists to shutdown submissions for new games. Then again, they hate the Vita and wanted it to die the entire time.

Well I pulled out the Vita, haven't bought the bunch of games yet.... but it's progress!

"Remember Me."

More like [Link] (pretty sure I made this joke when the game was new.)

Sorry to hear about the tv But at least it has led to the awesome Vita! I've also heard about the C-bomb news. Although that issue never should've existed in the first place.

That was good news to see. My concern involving the PS4/PS5 c-bomb debacle is still deeply concerning to me though. Those consoles will be paper weights one day, and that doesn't sit well with me at all.
