Back to Skyrim (currently in the Dragonborn expansion) I'm only 212 hours into my playthrough so still plenty to do.. Only another 288 hours of gaming left then.

Kingdom Hearts 0.2: a forgotten passage. I grew up with this series and I'm seeing it to the end. For what is essentially an engine demo for Kingdom Hearts III it was very well done and I was impressed to see Mickey show up for the final battle. Now to wait a year for Kingdom Hearts III, sigh. I want to play that game, but it doesn't seem worth it to buy a PS4 just for that. Maybe I'll borrow my cousin's at some point.

Breath of the Wild. That may be my new favorite Zelda game.

Prototype!
How I loved this game back in the day.
I’m a big fan of Dennis Detwiller’s writing, and that’s the engine that drives the game. The game looks beautiful and is a tremendous amount of fun to play. I'll do a mission and then I'll get distracted and engage in a thirty minute rampage. There is something sublime about throwing a minivan at a helicopter. The funny thing is that the cut scenes are all well-acted, except for the main character, who seemed a notch below everyone else. I suggested to a friend that this might be an audience identification thing, prompting him to remark, "He grunts and wears a hoodie! He's just like me!"
Unfortunately, when I went to load my save game, I saw that I had last played it nearly two years ago, so I was just a wee bit rusty. I think what must have happened was that I took a break before a particularly frustrating mission and never picked it back up. I couldn’t even remember the gameplay basics, but I didn’t want to start over to reacquaint myself because I was pretty close to the end and I wanted to get to the New Game +.
Controls are little finicky. This is improved in the sequel, however the story in that one is loud and dumb and fails to take advantage of the clear sequel hooks from the first. I would love a Prototype 3 that combines the virtues of both games (or even an updated version of the original that uses the tighter controls from the second).

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance. Doing a play-through with a friend who's never finished it before. The game was a bit rushed and rough around the edges, but it more than makes up for it in sheer visceral over the top fun. I can't wait to see what my friend makes of the ending; where things get REALLY crazy.

Glad to see the latest patch fixed some of the bug issues on Mass Effect Andromeda.
Is Destiny worth getting if you just want to play it as a single player campaign?

Completed Mass Effect Andromeda, very glitchy still despite patch but not bad enough to stop my enjoyment as i love this franchise.
Not happy that this game intentionally didn't tie up plot threads because it's obvious Bioware want to make another trilogy.
Started playing Watchdogs 2 now.

Tekken 7! I played the first game in 1994, in the video arcade section of a bowling alley and it blew my young mind. I had it on console by the time I moved into my first apartment. There was a paralyzing snowstorm that year and as it was the only game we owned, my girlfriend (now wife) and I got very good at it. A friend kept trying to beat Heihachi and finally gave me the control pad in frustration. I beat him in ten seconds, with one hand, with a perfect. (It was with Michelle though, and in Tekken 1, it was obscenely easy to perform her 10-hit combo.) My wife has a similar story, and how my brother was strutting about his unbeatable Tekken prowess and she curbstomped him effortlessly. Her story is even better because he's so cocky and she's so mild-mannered. The same friend managed a Gamestop (I think they might have still been called Babbages back then) and he brought over a copy of Tekken 2 before it was released and we played it all night and drank beer (and Zima, because it was the 90s) and sat on the roof and did all the things young people do. I've got a lot of fond memories of the series is what I'm saying. I took off today so I'd be able to spend all day playing it Tekken 7 continues the tradition of being needlessly complicated and kinda dopey ("Heihachi, you have reclaimed leadership of the Michima Zaibatsu. What are you going to do now?" "Throw a fighting tournament, doy."). So I love it, obviously. They added an exorcist to the roster, because of course they did. I love how they throw in whatever dumb thought comes into their heads, without any consideration for how it meshes with anything else. That's why it's the BEST!

I am currently addicted to Star Wars Galaxy of heroes. It's taking up way too much time each day.

Mass Effect is riddled with glitches & it lacked something that the first two games had, pity as the set up is brilliant it just fails in it's delivery.

Middle Earth: Shadow of War No wonder Christopher Tolkein stepped down. He saw the future of his father's legacy and it is this game and it is the Lego Sauron in the Lego Batman movie. It's very much like the original Shadow of Mordor game, but even more next level bonkers. Near the end of the first act I {Spoiler}teamed up with an assassin dispatched by Galadriel to protect Shelob from the Nazgul. Not strictly faithful to the Tolkien legendarium, but a heck of a lot of fun.
