I got Sonic Colors Ultimate. I loved it on the Wii, and saw that it was on sale for $12. For that price, definitely worth revisiting.

I had the original version of that preordered and even got a recorded phone call from Dan Aykroyd telling me to pick it up. But after seeing some reviews that said it was a short game. I canceled it, and never went back to check it out. Probably should do that one of these days.

You guys have me wanting to get it as well. Its the closest we will get to another movie with Harold Ramis.

Online said it's 8 hours for the story and 21 hours complentionist. 8 hours about perfect length for me.

These days, absolutely. A 10-hour game is all I want now. 15 or 20 years ago though, I demanded my games offer me no less than a 40-hour experience or at the very least something with a ton of replay value.

I bought Sonic Origins Plus....because it was cheap. Plus I figure I should probably play Sonic 3 before I turn 50.

Youve never played Sonic 3 before? It's a cool game. Shame they removed MJ's music tracks in that version, though.

I think I tried it once years ago, because I do remember knuckles coming out and laughing at Sonic a few times. But for whatever reason I just wasn't into it at that time. But Sonic games are kind of like that for me. Either I really want to play them and can't get enough of them, or I just can't get interested in them at all.

I picked up Final Fantasy 3 Pixel Remaster for my tablet. I've been on the fence about what to do with the pixel remaster games for a while. I kind of want them, but if there was ever a series of games that I have played to death, it's those early Final Fantasy games. And I can see myself starting one game, getting a little tired of it, and then never touching anything else in the collection.

The one exception is Final Fantasy 3. Over the years I've tried a couple different versions of the game, but I never really invested a lot of time in it. Since I have plenty of Google Play credit, I figure I'll give it a shot. And if it turns out I like it, maybe I'll pick up an actual physical copy of it and go through the series.

I got Fable Anniversary on XSS for $13. I 100% Fable on the OG Xbox 20 years ago. I'll see if the magic is still there. Think I'll play a purely evil character this time. No more goody two shoes for me! 😈

I'm barely 2 hours into Borderlands 4 but here is my initial impression. Its fun, its Borderlands. Maybe Gearbox patched some of the performance issues because it runs at a pretty steady 30 fps on the Series S. It never seems to dip which is good. Of course it runs at 60 on the X but I'm pleased. Textures are okay, nothing sticks out, nothing really looks flat like the previous games.

The coolest part of the game are the upgrades. Grappling hook is a welcome addition and the glide is especially cool. And I'm happy to interact with Claptrap again.  Multiplayer will have to wait till I get a Live subscription. Maybe next week.

I've been debating picking this up, but I keep telling myself I already have three copies of it. I can probably wait for a price break.
