Only one modern game for me this week...

 

GameBoy Advance

Legend of Zelda:  The Minish Cap - 317 min (Saturday stream.  Got most of the random stuff wrapped up I think...  don't have everything, I'm sure.  Not going for 100% or anything, but I think I'm in pretty good shape for the last dungeon.  Hope to be finishing this game up this Saturday, making it only the third Zelda game I've ever beaten, but we'll see.)

 

Just curious.  What are the other 2?

RADICAL (raa-di-cul) adj. 1) outrageous: "Radical moves, dude!" 2) cool: "It'd be radical if you could cruise the ramp around 5 o'clock."

 

Ok, so probably Bandai-Namco's game Rad has nothing to do with California Games but it was the first thing that came to my mind. It takes a clear win on first attempt and retains the Switch at the top of systems. Welcome to Galactus who represents the Sony fraction this week.

WindWaker and Twilight Princess.  I played a good bit of several of the others, but never stuck it out long enough to actually finish them.

Here are my times for this past week (August 26th through September 1st) on modern systems...

 

Android phone:

McDonalds treasure hunt - 2 min.

 

I played one game of that while on the toilet. Other than that, I didn't play anything this week. I visited my father in the hospital twice, fetching and bringing him things he needed, both from his flat where I also cleaned up the mess he left a bit, and from his car. And I went swimming also because it might be the last hot week for this year, so in September there should be more time for gaming again. But I did manage to sneak in some rides on rented scooters with Lime now letting you ride scooters placed outside of the service area in Vienna.

My time for the week:

Pandemic The Board Game 27

 

 

LOL - I played Minecraft "with" my nephew.  He controlled it on his phone while my wife and I offered advice and commentary watching on their big-screen TV.  I included the time in the tracker because we really did interact with him and the decisions he was making quite a bit.  We taught him that blowfish are poisonous .

 

I also finished the main campaign on Toy Soldiers and managed to cure all 4 diseases in Pandemic.

[digdugnate]

@carlsson can we include our time today for a summary tonight, or would you still prefer that we keep it to last week?

[carlsson]

Either way works, I'll compile the stats on Tuesday. Nominally we try to keep it Mon - Sun but I suppose sometimes there is some overlap.

[digdugnate]

i was just asking since it's Labor Day in the US and I have more time to game today, hehe.    I'm good either way, really, but thought I'd ask.

 

I'll go ahead and keep it up to this morning in the spirit of the stats.

 

All Switch, all the time! 

 

Switch:

 

Dragon Quest XI S: Definitive Edition demo -- 124 minutes

The 27th of September is getting closer!  I spent a little bit of time playing the demo again- i anticipate taking vacation for when the game releases

 

Horizon Chase Turbo -- 123 minutes

 

Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order -- 368 minutes

There was a free content update for MUA3, so I unlocked the two characters and have been levelling some different ones.

 

Rad -- 1007 minutes

I'm not sure what compels me to keep playing Rad since I have yet to finish a run through it after 108 runs- the game to me is crushingly hard, but there's enough that keeps me playing.

 

[Agamon]

PC

No Man's Sky (315 min)

 

XB1

Slay the Spire (924 min)

 

Busy long weekend with not much gaming taking place (well not much video gaming, some board gaming happened). A couple of sessions of NMS inserted into a bunch of Slay the Spire.  Winning a lot more in StS than not this week, now that I've gotten used to the meta of the different decks again.

I just got this game last Friday. I love it despite some recent controversy that I will not get into here.

 

 

Ion Fury (PC) 82 mins

 

I would have played more if it would have worked on my laptop, as I was away from home over the weekend. I wasn't expecting a Build engine game to require a 64bit OS but it does. A little ironic considering Build engine games back in the day were 16bit DOS applications.

 

Unreal Tournament 2004 (PC) 84 mins. Played on my favorite invasion server (a mod where you can build insane weapons and kill monsters to score points that gets insanely difficult as most of the players are level 400+.  Noobs get instagibbed by monsters when they spawn so whenever a new player joins, it's surprising if they stick around for more than 2 mins lol).

Regarding holiday weekends . . . On holiday weekends like Labor day, I still cut off my week on Sunday.  The Monday holiday goes on the next week's total.

PUBG yet again clears four digits in number of minutes and takes the title, a little over an hour more than Rad. The Xbox One also becomes the most played system, almost like good old times before many of you had embraced the Switch. Also new participant record for the season with 9 people reporting in times, obviously with room for more.

This may be the last time PUBG leads the tracker. 

[DragonGrafx-16]

Forgot I also played Neko Navy (PC) 10 mins.

[carlsson]

^^ Ok, I'll add that for week 36. If you play it more this week, please indicate if your new figure is inclusive or exclusive those 10 min.

[digdugnate]

My 'Modern Gaming' platform of choice is the Switch- even with the impending BL3 coming out for XBox/etc.  I think Borderlands is likely going to wait until December for me.

 

Up to Thursday, pretty much the only game I played was Rad.  A new update came out for Tetris 99 on Thursday so some time was devoted for this as well.  

 

Switch:

 

Rad -- 984 minutes

Tetris 99 -- 630 minutes

 

 

[+thegoldenband]

My time for the week:

 

GameCube:

Only played some Ion Fury (PC) this week. 63 mins.

Curse of the Assassin 61

 

X360
Rayman Legends 81
Toy Soldiers Cold War 62

 

XOne 
Pandemic the Board Game 94

Xbox One

Madden 20: 247 minutes

PUBG: 95 minutes

Gears 5: 43 minutes

 

iOS

Microsoft Solitaire Collection: 232 minutes

 

------

Gaming overall is down this week as I had to bring my daughter to college for the first time. Surprisingly, I wasn't an emotional wreck. ?

 

After struggling FAR worse than normal in PUBG over the past three weeks, I reached my breaking point Monday. I deleted the game from my hard drive. I'd consider adding back to play custom games with just my pals but no more in the general population. It's a shame because I love the game (obviously) but it's readily apparent that I'm just not good enough for it to be enjoyable for me anymore. 

 

The new Call of Duty looks promising and I'm sure my crew will shift to that soon anyway. Gears 5 is part of Game Pass Ultimate, so even though I haven't played a GoW game since the first one, I'll give it try. I may even have a chance to dig into my ever-growing backlog.

Couple of hours between the missus and I of Tetris 99. It's amazing how they keep getting me to buy new versions of the game, especially after Tetris Effect, which I thought would probably be the last version I'd ever buy.
