Another year of going is upon us! As I did last year I'll be tracking my game completions in a singular thread.
I wish you all a 2025 full of great games, healthy lives, and good news!
With that said, here's my games beat, starting with the first one beaten today!!!

Really fun time. Highly recommended.

Metroid Dread - Burenia
I cannot believe that 'Metroid Dread' is FOUR years old. I know the spotlight is on Prime 4 right now but I really can't wait to see what the Dread-sequel will look like soon. 2026? 2027?

I had many, many gaming blindspots despite being an avid gamer as a kid in the '90s. I compiled a list of some of my favorite SNES, N64, and PS1 games I only discovered in the past few years.

As I post this, I realize I should have known that they would do their Direct on today's date. Considering today is the anniversary of the game and the movie is based off of it too. Well played.

My wife and I finished Ticket To Ride: Legacy. What a great legacy game. I wish we could do it all over again without paying full price for a new copy.
I'd love if they did a Europe one of these as a sequel.

I'm at my favorite diner this morning and they've got a radio going very quietly. The song is of someone singing a kind of moaning style of singing.
It totally sounds like Shakra from Silksong is a short order cook in the back. Hilarious, and kind of soothing of a thought.
