Finished Metroid Prime: Remastered!

Shared my issues in last week’s thread, nothing else to add here except I hated those Fission Metroids, most annoying enemies in the game.

Waiting for Prime 2 remastered now. Would probably get day-1.


Started Pankapu, a colourful and shiny 2D platformer. Have only played a little bit, but seems fun.


Finished Rise of the Tomb Raider.

It was a really good game. I am surprised that it’s about 10 years old now. Next is Shadow of the Tomb Raider, will probably play it later this year. I have heard Rise is the best of the trilogy, so going to adjust my expectations accordingly, but still looking forward to it.


Also played and finished Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered. It was a pretty short campaign, probably around 6-7 hours. I had heard great things about the campaign, but I thought it was just okay. Good, but not the best campaign ever. Though, to be fair, this is a game from 2007, and I haven’t played many FPS games recently, so I am not sure what the benchmark is.

I liked the missions and the gameplay, and thought it was over pretty quick. I have also Modern Warfare 2 remastered, so will give it a try soon-ish.

So, what about all you? What have you been playing?

    Can I ask what’s the deal with Persona 3 or 5 having multiple titles (Royal, Strikers, Tactica) under the same number (P5)? Are those relating stories, while the new numbering means a separate story / world?

    Atlus has a habit of releasing “upgraded/improved” versions of their games:

    • Persona 3 -> Persona 3 FES
    • Persona 4 -> Persona 4 Golden
    • Persona 5 -> Persona 5 Royal
    • SMT5 -> SMT5 Vengeance

    The “upgraded” version effectively obsoletes the original version as they include expanded storylines, improved QOL and so on.

    Other games like P5 Strikers or P5 Tactica use the same cast but with a different gameplay style. They’re usually meant to be played after the original game and should be treated as as spin-offs or sequels.
