Did anyone play Nioh 3? I really don't have a ton of time to play, but I loved Ghost of Tsushima and I see some similarities.

Not me, slowly working my way through Crimson Desert

How you liking it? I have a friend that has been absolutely hooked on it and singing all the praises about it to me.

I’ve also been playing crimson desert. It’s an rpg, but also feels a little like red dead redemption 2. Tons of stuff to do for better or worse. It’s a quirky game but also pretty dang good.

I like it so far, only about 20 hours in which considering the scope of the game isn't very much at all. The two bosses I have faced so far have defeated me easily. Need to get my gear upgraded and try again I suppose. The game has done nothing but improve with the patches so far. Runs decently as well, around 70 frames per second on my 10-year-old processor and 4070

I don't know if there are any car racing fans in this thread (I kind of don't think so lol), but I fired up Forza Horizon 6 last night. Always loved these games. So far the Japan map is great and the graphics are top-notch. Playground Games always know how to make a great map and squeeze out the best graphics possible. Looks like I have a new map to explore and a game to sink hours into.

Oh....also....I've been hearing fantastic things about the new Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight game. As a Batman fan (see avatar), I thought about purchasing it, but it's looking like Gamefly is going to send it to me, so that allows me to try the game first. If it's as great as I hear, I will buy it.

Loving it so far. Big jump from 5 to me.

I broke down and just bought Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight. I took the chance.....and......I love it. It's fantastic so far. You can definitely tell Rocksteady helped develop the game as there are a ton of similarities to the Arkham games. It has some good humor and a ton of easter eggs sprinkled throughout.

I don't generally get into the Lego games a whole lot, but this one definitely hooked me in......plus it's Batman!

So Nintendo Direct is happening tomorrow.

There’s a lot of rumors online that they’re going to announce an Ocarina of Time remake. That would be so sooooo sweet. I really hope it’s true.

HD Windwaker and Twilight princess for the switch/switch 2 would also be nice.

I have so many nostalgic memories of Ocarina of Time on the N64. I remember going over to my buddy's house and playing for hours while giving him endless grief because he thought the Longshot was the answer to every obstacle in the game.

Good times.

It was so groundbreaking when it came out. I remember the first time I saw it. I went to a friends house and he was playing it and I was watching him play. I wanted it so bad. I had money saved up from my birthday. So I left my friends house and had my dad take me to go buy it and played all weekend long.

What a time to be alive!

I stood in line (even as a 15 year old) for Ocarina at ToysRUs. My great-grandmother got it for me. I've said it many times here that it is my favorite game of all time, and still is. I'm a grown *** man now but I might get a bit misty eyed if they announce it. But please Nintendo...just crush it!
