I was listening to Chappelle Roan most recently. I like how she goes from kind of 80s sounding pop (Hot-to-go) to modern pop (Subway).

Nice!   I will check that out!   

yeah... for some reason, I'm a bit everywhere music wise.  I'm now listening to Kickstart my heart lol - heard it on a movie recently and it stuck:



@targetrasp mentioned he's on a hair metal kick too lol

I guess I'm just not as surprised since Halo and Gears of War have already been on PC a long time. It wasn't so far a jump for it to hit PS5.

This is a fair point.  I always associated the PC move with Microsoft and Windows... but not another competing company.  The PC move happened a long time ago... I think Halo was ported in 2003?  But again, it was on a Microsoft platform. If I remember right, Halo 2 was 2006 or 2007 and had to do with Windows Vista.  This was on Games for Windows... or Games for Windows Live.  That new platform, if I remember right, that hit Vista. 

It took a very long time for Reach, ODST and Halo 3 (etc) to be available on PC.   I guess it has been about 5-6 years since the Master Chief collection has been on PC (time flies).  I believer this is more of why it blew my mind to see Halo on PlayStation 5.

I loved this game on the Gamecube! As soon as I get a Switch 2 I'm going to play this

@Mai Valentine  -- This is one I totally missed...  I fired it up the other day.  Didn't have time to play a ton.  However, I'm looking to get into this a bit and see what it was about

I was thinking back on the Gamecube days... It's hard to believe that was so long ago.  There was something magical about that time period as well.  IDK.. magical sounds weird to me... just something really good about those days and a mystic in the Gamecube that hasn't been there for more recent consoles.

I am now also excited for the next Fire Emblem game, since it seems to be connected to Three Houses in some way.

@Mai Valentine - I didn't hear this!  Looks like it is called Fortunes Weave?   Oh man...    I don't need it... I don't need it...  You might have killed my streak of my not buying games lol

I watched the anime before I played the mainline games. The first game I bought was Pokemon Silver because the Pokemon 2000 movie made me a huge fan of Lugia. I've played a game from every generation since then. Gen 2 holds a special place in my heart but my favorite generation is 9. Pokemon Sword/Shield are my least favorite but Legends Arceus is really good so I can't write off gen 8.

Been revisiting Pokemon because of Pokemon FireRed/Leaf Green being released on the eShop. I beat the E4 on LG (Raichu, Venusaur, Ninetales, Slowbro, Sandslash, and Dragonair) and am doing post game stuff. I also started a new file on Pokemon Alpha Sapphire. So far I have three badges. And I'm shiny hunting Lugia in Soul Silver (which is a long term project because shiny odds in older games are 1 in 8164).

I downloaded the demo for the new Tomodachi Life game but I haven't checked it out yet. I really enjoyed the first one, though, so I have a feeling I will like this one as well

I tried playing Xenoblade when it originally released on the Wii but my main issue was that it was just such a big game that I probably got decision paralysis and couldn't decide what to do. Also, the battle system was a little wonky, and the voice acting was not great. For the story parts it was fine but they kept doing the same quips over and over in battle and it was annoying.
