I bought Civ 6 on Steam for $9. I have it on Switch, but the speed, mouse and better UI makes the PC a superior gameplay experience.

I picked up Varth on the Capcom Arcade Collection. $2 for my favorite arcade shmup of all time. That's pretty much what I spent on it every time I was in the arcade, so this is a pretty phenomenal deal in my world.

Speaking of arcade games, I'd love the opportunity to play TMNT the Arcade Game again.  Hell, I'd invite you guys for a co-op game night if it ever goes on sale again.

This weekend I made it about halfway through Bug Fables, a wonderful Paper Mario clone. In fact, I prefer it over sone of the newer, gimmicky Paper Mario games. Ive been playing it for tge whole month of February. Its not a long game, but I only get to play on weekends these days. Work and family life have been consuming.

I picked up Suikoden 2. I'm not sure why I never got this before. I enjoyed the original, but never pulled the trigger on any others. If I recall, there was always a lot of complaints about a weak translation for this game, and that may have pushed me away. But over the years, this game is apparently gotten a reputation as one of the best on the ps1. So definitely time to check it out.

Really enjoyed that game myself. Suikoden V is my favourite of the franchise. That one was for the PS2 and was fantastic. Really wish Konami would rerelease that one on current systems.

That's interesting. I thought the series ended at IV. Had no idea there was one more.

I think V was the last unless there were some mobile games or spinoffs. I think there was even a Suikoden Tactics game. Not sure when that came out or on what systems.

did you read any reviews? Seems that the game is a visual first and foremost, a strategy game second.

No didn’t read any of the reviews. Interesting though.

Checked out a couple of reviews. It sounds like it’s a very slow start and that there is a lot of narrative to this game. It may be awhile before I really dive into this though as I’m heavily focused on Elden Ring right now.

No hurry, with what little time I can dedicate to gaming these days it'll be a long time before I get around to anything new.

Finally picked up my copy of Monster Hunter Rise. Still kind of shocked that GameStop had it for $25. Anyway, at that price why the hell not? Probably won't get to it for another week or so, but figured it was better to grab it now than let some piece of crap 10-year-old kid get it.

Nice get especially for that price. Nintendo had it available for a free trial period for Online Subscribers just recently as well.
