What Video Game Are You Playing These Days?

Super Mario Wonder is fun. I haven't finished it yet, though. I've been playing it small bits at a time so I can cherish the experience longer.

As for Super Mario RPG Remake, I just bought that this morning. I played the original on the SNES so I am super nostalgic for this particular title. I hope it's faithful to the original as I have fond memories of it. I'm probably going to play it after I get home from work tonight.

So you've been playing Nintendo since SNES or even NES. I have played Nintendo since GBA SP, GameCube, Wii, and DS. I do enjoy Super Mario Odyssey, the sports games, Ring Fit Adventure, Paper Mario (the Thousand Year Door and Super Paper Mario especially), Zelda, and many other Nintendo games alongside PlayStation games like Final Fantasy VII, Uncharted, and God of War. I have a PS3 and Switch as my current consoles. I sold my GameCube and Wii because I wasn't getting the proper setup for them anymore. The Wii U I sold because I'd figure I would pass it on to someone who would want them. I do enjoy a lot of Switch and PS3 games. Princess Peach Showtime is my next hype as I am a slight fan of Peach alongside Daisy, Rosalina, and the Lumas.

Also Super Mario RPG remake is closer to the original. It's a better remake than Final Fantasy VII Remake.

Haha yes. I'm old enough that I was playing both NES and SNES. Mostly SNES as it was more my generation. NES was just a but before. I practically grew up playing video games. I played the original Playstation console as well and still play Playstation now on PS5.

I finished playing RE4 remake in professional mode with no bonus weapon, right now I have only 4 other trophies and then will get my first platinum trophy ever

So the Game Awards happened on Thursday. Baldur's Gate III won Game of the Year.

Nintendo didn't win sadly with Tears of the Kingdom but they got two awards with TOTK winning Best Action-Adventure Game award and Super Mario Bros. Wonder winning Best Family Game award so that's good. I do wish the Super Mario Bros. Movie could have won best adaptation since that was popular this year. I really enjoyed the Mario movie. I enjoyed Anya Taylor-Joy's voice as Peach since she sounded very Queen-like and I liked Jack Black being King Bowser Koopa.

Re4 is the only game I’m planning to get the platinum because it’s one of my favorite games.

[JannahLM]

I just started playing Monster Hunter: World because a friend of mine wanted to play through it with someone. It's pretty fun and the monster designs, mostly having an interesting combination of features from both dinosaurs and various fantasy creatures, simply look amazing.

I am still waiting to get myself a PS5 alongside my decently powerful gaming PC for the exclusives. The Switch 2 is what I look forward towards when it comes to new consoles. I mostly am sticking with PC because they offer a better experience for a lot of games these days. I love Doom Eternal on my PC.

Ghost of Tsushima is a fantastic game. It's actually the first game I played on my PS5.

I have yet to play it. I don't have a PS4 or a PS5. I am still waiting for PS5 prices to get more reasonable to pick one up. Right now I have a powerful gaming PC with a Ryzen 5 3600, 32GB RAM, and an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 12GB version so I don't need a PS5 at the moment. Still waiting for more exclusives to justify owning one to complement my already moderately powerful gaming PC that blows a PS5 away in the graphics department. I only ever play Doom Eternal on my PC and the graphics look amazing with the ray-tracing.

I prefer console gaming, mostly because the friends I game with are all console gamers. Not all games are cross-platform, thus if I had a PC I would not be able to game with most of my friends.

That was great ! Did you kill the uncle in the end? I actually spared his life because I thought I was being noble and performing some kind of great deed out there forgetting its just a game and the uncle was a massive snake!!!!!!!

I did kill him, yes. Damn, massive spoiler for those reading that haven't played the game, though. That ending was so heartbreaking too.

I guess you're right it's a massive spoiler, but hey we've been given hadith books that tell us what's going to happen in the end of times.. I would have preferred to have it as a surprise. 

 

I hope they make a part 2. Best game I've played in a long while.

There is apparently a sequel in the works, although I have no idea what they will do for it as the island was saved from the Mongols in the end. Perhaps some more localized threat will take centre stage? Idk.

That said, I'd love to revisit the game and do more exploration simply because of how gorgeous the game world is. There's a lot of stuff I never did get around to completing or exploring. Open world games are just so time consuming.

I think they should go down a more interesting realm now and don't forget the whole story line changes depending on what you decided to do in the first one. I reckon for anyone who spared the uncle... The uncle goes to the British for help and brings a whole army over to  conquer Japan so they can set the groundworks for westerners to Fetishise Anime.. Like you'd see a whole conspiracy created by the uncle and British conspirators drawing anime characters to destroy the Samurai guidelines that have been reformed by Jin Sakai...something mad like that

Just got back to a daily routine with Ring Fit Adventure on Nintendo Switch. It's a fun way to get a workout in the winter time at home. Also enjoyed playing Doom Eternal on my pretty powerful gaming PC.

[JannahLM]

Because I've been so focused on my PS5 games I've been neglecting my Switch a bit. I finally pulled it out again so I've been playing TMNT: Shredder's Revenge and Octopath Traveller 2 on there.

Omg, Mystical Ninja! The memories! I keep hoping Nintendo will re-release it, but I doubt they will so I'll have to find an emulator instead since the SNES emulator on Switch doesn't have it.

Nintendo Switch is much better than the Wii and Wii U in my opinion but I still have my favorites on the Wii like the Super Mario Galaxy games and some of the Mario sports games like Mario Sports Mix and Mario Super Sluggers. The Nintendo Switch is the system I spent more time with, arguably more than the GameCube (which I still love). I never had a Nintendo 64 though, I was a PS1 guy growing up early on but I do love Super Mario 64, The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time (though part of me loves Wind Waker on GameCube), Banjo Kazooie games, and GoldenEye 007 even though I only got to play Mario 64 on a friend's N64 and played the others on emulator. I still think the PS1, PS2, and PS3 eras of Sony were the best.

You're right, the switch is definitely better than the Wii and Wii U.. I think they were 2 of the most pointless consoles in the line, but I still have them. I have all the Nintendo consoles from the NES up until the switch.  Ocarina of time is a brilliant game big up yourself for knowing that one!!!!!!! And goldeneye what an absolute banger. Did you ever play time splitters 2 on game cube? Or any of the Prince of Persia series? Prince of persia 2 warrior within was probably the best game I ever played and it was kind of like big brother to assassins creed. Anyways man you got good taste in games which means you're probably a great pious Muslim too. Take care 

[ShiaOfMahdi]

So I played Super Mario RPG remake and finally got the sixth star. I also played Ring Fit Adventure. It's a great game. It gave me a great workout.

[ShiaOfMahdi]

Got half an hour worth of exercise in Ring Fit Adventure. I also am playing more PC these days since getting a PS5 is very expensive here in Canada. I was lucky to get an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 for $400 + tax for my already powerful PC with a Ryzen 5 3600 and 32GB RAM. I love PC gaming since the online is free and I use Steam to get my games on PC. I also like how games like GTA can get mods and stuff.

So Princess Peach Showtime got a new trailer.

I am more than hyped about this game. I will get it inshallah. I just hope for Daisy and Rosalina to get games too.

That actually looks pretty decent! At first I was like OH HELL NO they're just trying to emasculate Mario like they did to the ghostbusters . Looks DOPE though!!!!!!

Have you played the new Prince of Persia? That looks sickkkkk bruv!!!!!!

No. But I do have Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands on my PS3. It's a great game. I also had the Sands of Time for GameCube. I will try to get it on PC when it is on sale.

I only ever played Prince of Persia (2008). It seemed different from the rest but it was pretty easy and fun.

Nice to see an entertainment post.

I and my children play together.

Moto Rider Go: Highway Traffic, Commandos, Doom 2 (a very old game), and some other games, I don't remember their names.

My friend has that one. I never got to play it though. I also have The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom on Nintendo Switch. They're both amazing.
