    Default Gaming Backburner

    We have the what are playing right now thread, but I'm curious what games are on the back burner.

    Currently I want to play the following games...

    Console
    -Borderlands 2
    -Tomb Raider (the Square version)
    -Final Fantasy X because I still need to get further in the monster arena damnit!

    PC:
    -The Cave
    -Grim Fandango (remastered) always wanted to play this

    Also, stopped playing FFXHD to finish FFXIII, so I need to get back to Tidus & co.

    I have wayyyyyy too much gaming I want to do, and it basically boils down to three sets of games, each of which will take me approximately 300 hours to complete:


    • Final Fantasy X|X-2 HD – haven't played the remasters yet! never experienced the international versions!
    • Final Fantasy XIII, XIII-2, and LR – haven't played XIII or XIII-2 a second time, and want to experience the full trilogy in order
    • Kingdom Hearts 1.5 and 2.5 HD Remix – haven't played any KH in a long while and really want to check these improved versions out.


    On top of that, I haven't had a PS2 for over a year, and I'm starting to miss my favorite games from that era: FFXII (120 hours), Star Ocean 3 (80-100 hours), Dragon Quest VIII (80 hours), Xenosaga Ep. I-III (120 hours)...

    For a married-with-kids-and-a-full-time-job dude, that's just not all going to happen anytime soon. But it's nice, because I'm so content with old games that I don't have to care about getting a PS4 or buying new games very often. I'm more than happy to fire up my PSP and play FFVII for the 18th time! (Ooh, that sounds fun...)

    I'm discussing my 108, er, 111 favorite games of all time in THIS THREAD so go check it out and join the conversation!

    A lot.

    First, all the Steam games in my library for my Let's Play. Next, the latest Pokemon. After that, I've been feeling the itch to replay a lot of FFs. And finally, I want to resub to WoW. Again.

    My little cousin spent most of the SuperBowl trying to convince me to play WoW again. It's never going to happen, but I almost felt an itch. Just a tiny one.

    Dragon Age: Inquisition keeps getting shifted. I streamed a bunch yesterday, but I still haven't beaten it with any of my characters yet.

    It's getting bumped in favor of a Dying Light stream tonight. :3

    I'll exclude visual novels for a change. The main three I really want to get to are the following:

    The Metal Gear Solid series
    Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII
    Persona 3/4

    I too shall be looking into Grim Fandango. I remember playing a demo back in the day but with my horrible English I didn't get very far I think.

    But to be honest I just want to play Dark Souls and Demon's Souls again.

    I would highly recommend anyone who enjoys point-and-clicks like the recent Telltale Games to Grim Fandango. Even with the update, it's probably a bit dated still, but it is excellent all the same.

    I hadn't played in years but then recently someone gifted me a free month. And it was a lot of fun. So now that the month is over, the itch is back, and I really want to scratch it. I haven't caved yet but I have a feeling that I probably will soon.
