Back in 2013, I wrote about the 9 best games of the prior generation<\/a> and we’re about time to wrap up yet another gen. While I should get to doing a similar post, I wanted to recap some of the titles that may deserve a place on that list but which I never had the pleasure of playing. In addition, this serves as a sort of checklist for things to get to in the coming years. The good news is that most, if not all of these titles will work next gen, so that’ll be great when prices drop a little bit. Without any additional ado…<\/p>\n\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Two Years Later Update<\/b>
\nIt’s now the 1st of October, 2022 and I figured I’d toss a quick update about this post.<\/p>\n

TLOU<\/b>: Great game, looked spectacular – but like the first, I never want to revisit again
\nTsushima<\/b>: Just loved this game. Visually it was just a joy. Fun gameplay.
\n Ys IX<\/b>: Played this in early 2021. Absolutely loved it – more than 8. One of the series’ best.
\nModern Warfare<\/b>: Just beat this today. Usual romp – worth the $ – not the HDD space!
\nHades<\/b>: Played upon returning to America. Liked it but never beat, just kinda fell off.<\/p>\n

I tinkered with 3 of the 4 others but not enough to keep me interested.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
