Max Payne needs a reboot.
 
My copy of No More Heroes 3 arrived as well. I've given up on Suda making another masterpiece like Killer7 or The Silver Case ever again and I'm just going to go with the flow and enjoy NMH for what it is.
 
I dunno, I thought Travis Strikes Again was a great mix of the quality writing and serious tones of his earlier games as well as the more wacky stuff that came later, and so far it seems NMH3 follows it pretty close(though there’s seemingly a lot left to see). Something more in the vein of Killer7 would be nice for sure but I feel this isn’t as bad as something like Saints Row where they just gave up on any semblance of a grounded story.
 
I finally got a copy of 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim for £20 brand new physical! Couldn't believe it. I thought it was never going to go down in price, but really lucked out there.

Game has Shenmue III for £5 brand new and thought about nabbing it, but couldn't think of any PS4 friends I could gift it to. I made sure to place it so that it was front facing in the hope someone will give it a chance.

I played through it on Game Pass a few times but my game pass expired and I know I'll play this again in the future so I picked it up on sale (well worth double the full price). I like to support development teams and creators that put this much effort into their details and story telling.
 
I got the US Version of Die Hard Triology 2 on the PS1 and the digital Copy of Tormentend Souls. I mentioned Tourmented Souls already in another video and it is great game.

Die Hard Triology is also awesome. It is quite enjoyable to play besides the bad reviews it got. Sometimes it is nice to have some mindless action without any tactical components.

Not everything is perfect though. The graphics are not that great for 2000 PS1 game. Despite the bad graphics the game still manages it to show the over all tone and atmosphere of the source material. So no complains from my side on that matter.
 
I used some gaming vouchers to purchase a Nintendo Switch at a local CeX shop recently. I managed to buy Mario Kart 8 from ShopTo, where they allow increment payment systems.

As for the game, I like it. Mario Kart is the only racing series I am fond of.

Pretty happy with my pick-ups this month, all were for great prices! I sold PS4 my copy of JEDI Fallen Order and it nearly covered the cost for the deal I got on the PS5 version.

I got Cyberpunk cheap, I don't intend on playing it just yet as I'm waiting for the PS5 release, but this will set me up for that PS5 upgrade!

Similar case for Final Fantasy VII REMAKE Intergrade - I'll be holding off for now as I want to enjoy it in prep for when Remake-2 appears... just as long as it I'm still not saying that late 2023 :p

Sakura Wars looks interesting, I've been hesitant on it for a while due to it being part of a large series then having a mobile follow up title... but once again the price was right and worth trying out for.

Oh and I also bought Shenmue 1, 2 & 3 digitally on PSN as the y were going for £6.24 & £6.99 - Shen 3 with all the DLC too!
So you never had Sakura war?

Worth every penny. One of the best stories I've seen in a video game. Top 5 or 6 on that level. Even if you don't like the other games from the franchise (I'm not crazy about them), this one stands on its own. I'd imagine if you enjoy the other games in the franchise a lot, this one will be the definitive one.

I am done for now
 
Preordered both Voice of Cards and The Good Life on Switch, and went ahead and bought Steel Assault. But man is this game a lot tougher than it looked. Still fun though.
 
while I don’t really need it and feel like it’s pretty lacking in the games dept, I finally managed to snag a ps5 on BestBuy.com. Took me about 50 attempts at signing on, but it stayed in my cart the entire time. This whole thing has been so bizarre. Picking it up on Thursday. It’s so hard to get that the challenge became fun.

I am envious of you. I have been trying to get a PlayStation V for months.
