I've knocked out a few games I've been playing off-and-on for years so have found myself spending time with some shooters lately. I haven't played much Visage for pre-October gaming (I keep thinking - I can do it later...I can do it later....LOL). Hyper-5 on PS4 - this is a pretty fun if a bit corny...

Finally (FINALLY) got 68 with Tales of Arise. Pretty good Tales game but just about wore out its welcome. Took me years to finish it.

I posted elsewhere but wanted to note that I did get the last trophy I was missing in Callisto Protocol (due to bugs) and the platinum to go with it. It was quick and easy. As I noted last year, it's not a particularly scary game, but is well rendered and fun despite that. Now I'm working on Visage ...

Got 67 with that last pesky trophy on Callisto Protocol! Man, what a glitchy mess version 1 was...was more scared of the bugs and crashes than the monsters LOL

October is just a month away so it is time to start thinking about what horror or horror-themed games we might play. I'm leaning heavily towards Visage...a creepy and esoteric game that has gameplay that is reminiscent of some of my favorites (Gone Home, Don't Knock Twice, and Paranormal Activity). ...

Got number 66 in Beach Buggy Racing. Phew those last two trophies were a bear. Anyway, have been playing it off and on for eight years now so it is good to complete it.

Theme song!!! You gotta admit I handled that turn like a pro!

Just re-read "Slaughterhouse-Five." What an incredible book. Loved every moment of it. I think it is my favorite Vonnegut... Thoughts here: https://www.wheredreamsescape.com/post/slaughterhouse-five Still chipping away at Tad Williams and Robert Heinlein. And, zounds, I think I bit off mor...

While Kiwi was watching the credits roll for FFXVI, I finished my re-read of William Faulkner's "Light in August." It really felt like a first read as little as I remembered about it...great book though. More thoughts here: https://www.wheredreamsescape.com/post/light-in-august Still worki...

I’m a little late in posting this one as it happened the week before last I think. But I’ve finished every tournament, got max stars on all 120 races, and I believe I found all Easter Eggs. One trophy left for platinum! Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord (Steam) Castlevania II: Simon’s Qu...
