Burning the midnight oil aye?

Hell yeah. What games did you pick up with it?

My personal favorite is Decapitated. Try the song "Spheres of Madness" first. If you really dig that sound and would like something faster and more aggressive, check out the album "Winds of Creation". If the production value isn't high enough for you, you can check out some newer stuff. I like the songs "Veins" on "Blood Mantra" and "Impulse" on "Anticult".

Hanabi - a pretty simple card game in which you work together to put on a fireworks show. You can't see your own hand, but instead can see everyone else's. Others give you hints about what's in your hand so you can make plays.

10-minute dungeon - a kickstarter table top game where you tear through as many dungeons/monsters as possible in 10-minute increments (I think). It's been awhile since I've played it, but I have very fond memories of it.

No, no, this sounds incredible!

Then you are not and never were an ally. I have "White Fragility" by Robin DiAngelo on my reading list. You might consider adding it to yours as well

Honestly, I think playing it with a friend might even bump it to 8/10. I had a blast with it despite the lack of innovation and repetitiveness of the gameplay

Slow down, live in the present, and enjoy who and what I already have in my life. That includes being more forgiving to myself and others, worrying less about all of the possible things I could be doing (personally and professionally) and instead choosing one thing at a time to focus my energy on, and being more aware of my own thoughts and feelings, then expressing them in a healthy way.

Maggie's Farm by RAtM is also a great cover

Beautiful. Looks like you've got quite impressive Wii and GameCube collections too 👀

I own a pair of Etymotic ER20XS ear plugs and I like them. I haven't had the chance yet to try them out at a concert, but I have worn them on other occassions. I think they're reasonably comfortable and the sound quality is still good while wearing them.

 

I've noticed some slightly obscure Xbox 360 titles rising in price lately. Anyone know why demand has gone up suddenly? Examples: Spec Ops: The Line ($15 to $35), Spectral Force 3 ($20 to $100), and Lost Odyssey ($20 to $35).

Halo 3 limited edition and Fallout New Vegas on XONE have climbed too, though they aren't as obscure.

Are collectors starting to focus on Xbox 360 titles?

Hey folks, what is everyone playing this week? Are you trying something new or returning to a previously played game or genre? How are you liking what you're currently playing?

 

Hey folks, r/gamecollecting is/was one of my favorite subs, so I would love to see a community for it here! Let's start building this space with an easy question for discussion: what's your favorite console to collect for?

Personally, I really enjoy collecting for Xbox 360. Games are inexpensive and easy to find, there are lots of good exclusives, non-exclusives tend to be similar or better for the 360, and the controller design is simply excellent. My favorite game so far is Enslaved: Odyssey to the West. It has some issues, but it's generally a fun and engaging game.

Which console do you prefer collecting for and why?
