Rewriting history much?

Metacritic has it at 83%, so it's not stretching the truth that much. Edge 8, in the 90s for some I've heard of...

Really? Fuck me. 2006 was a slow year, apparently. I've played it, it was disposable trash, but ok.

<fucked-it>

Turns out this is probably the busiest start to a year ever. Hadn't really noticed until now how much stuff is due in the first few months.

Gravity Rush 2, Resi 7, Nioh, Horizon, Nier, Mass Effect and Persona 5 by early April, and all of some interest. And there's probably more I haven't heard of or read about yet.

Got about 5 games from last year still to get through first, of course, but it's looking like a great year even at this stage.

Got my Yakuza, got my dragon quest, waiting on Switch (Zelda) persona and I'm waiting to hear on mass effect

I've got For Honor arriving mid-February, Switch arriving at the start of March, and Horizon: Zero Dawn arriving shortly after that. With a little bit of self-discipline, that'll be the end of me buying as much stuff day-one as I do just now. I was interested in ME: Andromeda, but I haven't got back to the first game in a while, and would like to play the trilogy first. Equally, Gravity Rush 2 and Nioh both tickle my fancy, but they wouldn't get nearly enough attention to justify paying full whack.

I've got a bunch of games to finish off, and StEEP barely started, and yet I'm finding myself playing Stories, which is pretty average but has its hooks in me.
