Roguelikes and Metroidvanias. Not sure metroidvania was a thing back in the day but retro wise they scratch an itch when you want something new with that nostalgic feel. So far Infernax is at the top of a growing list of awesome.

I originally thumbed my nose at the roguelikes. I didn't like the indie games and a lot of indies were roguelikes. Now that's about all I play, well that and Nintendo stuff. As much as the uber competitive online noise has turned me off, the brutal roguelikes have become more and more of my thing.

Cotton Reboot! is on sale for the Nintendo Switch $25 and PlayStation 4 $20.

These are pretty great prices.  I am tempted to pick this up.  I haven't always been the biggest Cotton fan.  This is one of those Shmup games in the past that were highly sought after.  Might be up the ally of @targetrasp @retro junkie for sure.

Thank you to those that showed up!  @CreepinDeth @mastermario and myself had a brief session.

I will work on getting the next meet-up set for next week!  Hopefully we can get more people to join up and hang out.

I might need to recap that series.   I ended up going back through Are You Afraid of the Dark original series.  That is fun to go back through here and there.


We are watching the new season of The Proof is Out There.

Wow that's crazy @Mai Valentine... getting rid of books as well.  I'm sure it's extremely hard to compete with Barnes and Nobles, Amazon and many others.

Thankfully, Amazon is not getting rid of their physical media.  However, I wonder if they are contributing (heavily) to other stores pulling back on their physical media.  The world is definitely changing.  Back in the old forum days, we called this. Honestly, I thought it would've happened a lot faster.  I'm glad it didn't.   I also wonder if buying habits are truly changing where people aren't buying physical media anymore. It seems like it.

We have the "What gaming related trends or favorites have grown off of you?" Topic.  Over time, tastes change, circumstances change... etc.  This brings the question, What Gaming Trends have you grown into?  I mentioned this would be a great topic as @retro junkie mentioned it.  I took the liberty of creating the topic lol.  :great:

Here's the "What gaming related trends or favorites have grown off of you?" :
