I feel a little bit like this image from Bulb Boy:

I have all the Metro games on my Xbox from either sales or Games with Gold. With my new games list, I might actually get to one of them. Ah yes, 2033 and Last light were free back in 2015. I want to read the books they were based on too. Such an interesting story. 

I was just thinking the other day, as I repeated a level in Kane & Lynch 2 about a dozen times, I don't necessarily dislike repetition. I think it's those jumping mechanics in 2D platformers. It's always the jumping that drives me bananas. 

Duke Nukem Manhatten Project out in the early 2000s was also a side scroller. I played that one on PC way back. It had some funny one-liners and was ok as a game. It was nearly unplayable on console though. I tried it on Xbox 360 a while back. 

I just got it in the mail. I have to wait until Saturday to try it though. Bah!

I'm curious about the crafting system. I love building new gear in a game. 

I think I still have Ground Zeroes. I have to try that. MGSV sounds pretty fun, from what I've heard of it. 

They now have three free games a month, one a retro title from the 360. I hope they add in original Xbox games in the Fall. They also just launched Game Pass that seems like it's going to be a thing. 100 games or more available every month for $9.99. I can already feel my interest in gaming decreasing as things go farther away from physical. I can't help it. It's just what happens. I know it from music. My collecting vanished after digital downloads. 

I think it might be called COD WWII out later this year. That is, if you can fly a plane in the pacific theater. Oh darn! COD WWII is more about the European theater. Well, maybe we'll get to pilot a bomber over Berlin. That could be an update of B-17 Bomber for Intellivision. 

I have a lot of trouble finding time for it, but I regularly carry it around for street passes. My Vita, though, I'm worried about because I haven't charged it in a long while. I should go do that before the battery decides it's through.
