Re: 2024 Gaming Plans

COLLEGE FOOTBALL!!!

Other than that, I'm currently playing Skyrim for the very first time (yeah, I'm super late) and Madden 23, which I honestly think is the best one I've ever played.

Re: 2024 Gaming Plans

With all the hype around GTA VI, I've bought GTA V for PS5, so been playing through story mode again for the first time since PS3. It's a lot of fun still but it's showing it's age compared to RDR2.

Also been playing through Mafia Definitive Edition, it's pretty fun I guess, I figure I'm about halfway done.

Big one for me for the foreseeable future will be Baldur's Gate 3. Huge learning curve for me as I don't really play RPGs, or I haven't in many years.


I'll take a look at MLB The Show, to see what new features it will have. May or may not upgrade this year.

These should get me to the summer when the new College Football comes out. This is the big one for me this year. Waited 10 years for a new one.

Re: 2024 Gaming Plans

I'm MUCH pickier about games I buy these days; I bought very few AAA titles in 2023 and expect to get fewer this year. It's not even a money thing, I just have lost interest in most of the mainstream genres/games.

So right now, it's FFVII Rebirth (and likely re-plays of Remake/Crisis Core) and MLBTS 23. I'm utterly ensconced in my Reds franchise on MLBTS23 and it's pushing me fairly deep into the "do not buy" camp for 24. FFVII is the first non-sports game I've pre-ordered in a couple of years and there's nothing else slated for 2024 that really excites me.

I've got a bunch of JRPGs in my queue as well and may knock-out a couple of them (I really want to finish Tales of Arise - which I started a LONG while ago...long enough that I may need to re-start it).

Re: 2024 Gaming Plans

2023 was a weird year for me gaming-wise (and other ways, too, but that's a story for another time), one that saw me lose a lot of interest in sports games and the hobby as a whole.

Currently playing:
EA Sports PGA Tour. I've put over 100 hours into this game; I just find it relaxing. In the FedEx Playoffs in Year 1 of Career Mode.

PGA Tour 2K23. This has been my most-played game of the last month or so. The 3-click swing was a great addition to this series and it can be very challenging on higher difficulties.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder. This was a Christmas gift and I've really been enjoying it so far.

Game I'm starting over:
The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom. This came out at a tough time for me and I've struggled really getting into the game, one that I was really anticipating. I'd like to start back from the beginning and really take my time with it, similar to how I approached Breath of the Wild.

Game I'm determined to finish:
Horizon Forbidden West. I really enjoy this one, but I keep finding myself going a long time between play sessions. I need to just put other games to the side until I finish it.

To play:
Hogwarts Legacy (PS5)
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order
Red Dead Redemption II

To buy:
Nothing. Going to play what is currently in my gaming library.

Re: 2024 Gaming Plans

Fun thread.

2022 started me trying to work through my insane backlog. I have been focused on short games for the last couple years but now I am shifting towards larger games.

2023 completed:
Final Fantast VII Crisis Core reunion (twice)
Dead Space 2023 (twice)
RE3REmake
Witcher 2
Guardians of the Galaxy
The Callisto Protocol and its DLC

Sports games:
MLB the Show 20, 21, 22
NBA 2k23
Madden 20


Here is what 2024 looks like:

Final Fantasy XV (started this in December)
Final Fantast VII Rebirth (take my money)

After that some combination of the following:

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
Xenoblade Chronicles X
Red Dead Redemption
Horizon Zero Dawn
Lost Odyssey
Super Mario Wonder
Terranigma
Dead Rising

I won't get through all of these but I'll try.

Sports games:
MLB the Show 20 and 22
Madden 20 (maybe 21 too)
NBA 2K23
NCAA 14 (I need to get back into this)

I'll pick up NCAA Football when it releases.

Once again, it's uncanny how similar our gaming patterns are. I'm right there with you.

    Oh, I'll also pick up switch 2 if that comes out this year and is backwards compatible.
