Arc Raiders- man, this has grabbed me hard, it's so much fun in solos or squads, and it's been an awfully long time since a game has had such jeopardy and the potential to induce such anxiety as you fight your way through heavyweight enemies whilst always keeping an eye on whether the human players around you are friendly or not. It's also one of the most beautiful worlds I've seen in a modern shooter- gritty, lived-in and very atmospheric. I was all over BF6 prior to playing Arc, but haven't touched it since doing so.

Also getting some time in on Snowrunner, City Skylines, Farming Sim 25 and of course a daily dose of GT7
 
I regained my gusto for Horizon Forbidden West after going back to an old save of Horizon Zero Dawn. I restarted Forbidden West focusing only on the main story and side quests directly in the path of the main story, and no distractions.

Been messing around in GT5 a lot lately, namely making some hybrids, fiddling around with the game data, and generally just doing whatever I feel like in the game. Some games I never get tired of, and this is certainly one of them! :D

I am working on Gear Club Unlimited 3 for my Switch 2. I put away my steering wheel to break from the stress from the Mario Kart Grand Prix I had last week. I am playing it with handheld to rest from the TV. I got a margin of progress in the game. And I found interest in iRacing too. But I need a better computer and it has a monthly fee on it. The developers of it is making iRacing Arcade but I don’t know if it will come to Nintendo Switch/Switch 2.
 
For the last few months i've been grinding Escape from Tarkov, prestiging and doing Terminal endings twice. It might be time for a pause.

Looking to get back into the world of Gran Turismo, both the older GT4-GT6 and the newer GT7. Maybe dabble with some F1 25 aswell.
 
Starting to dip my toes into Pokémon. My friend is a fan of the games, and she recommended Scarlet for me. Just started the tutorial, picked Fuecoco as my starter and about to make my way to the lighthouse.

I hope your playing on a Switch 2 otherwise there's going to be some places with significant frame rate issues.

Unfortunately, I am playing on my Lite... No way in hell am I spending $700 on a handheld...
 
I'm about to go down the rabbit hole of Role Playing vehicle games on Roblox after spotting some interesting looking ones on my stepson's Xbox just now.

I had no idea it had flourished into the car space in that way.
 
Today I purchased Cyberpunk and Spider Man remastered from the Steam Spring sale. I've already finished Cyberpunk in Xbox, but I want to see how my rig runs it. And Spider Man is cheaper here than in the PlayStation storefront, and will likely run and look better than in the PS5 Pro.

Ooh... Cyberpunk runs with high settings, RT, and the bells and whistles that my little Nomad rig can afford... no upgrades necessary for a while!

Still playing Armoured Core 6, albeit not as much as I would like to. About to finish chapter 3 in NG+, love it. Only thing is, having not a lot of time to play, I've stuck with a winning formula for too long so despite the huge number of weapons, builds and the tactics with which to use them, I've been using the same two weapons pretty much since I unlocked them and the tactic is basically to build up stagger with the miniguns while alternating fire with the shotguns, not exactly deep. But it works, so...
 
gt7 and some crew motorfest (i play crew with my kid) and rarely efootball or ea fc.. but not that much since football games were literally way better 10-15 years ago... even arguably pes was better 20-21 year ago
 
I dont normally go for platinums but ive ended up just needing the no damage run trophy to get the RE9 platinum after thinking I was done with the game, so im slowly doing a no damage run.

Also picked up GTA 5, havent played it from nearly 10 years and thought it would be a good game to have on the Steam Deck considering how much I've played 4 on it. Pretty incredible this came out on PS3 considering all the little details and QOL improvements it has compared to some games that have released 10 + years after it. Really enjoying it.
 
Jumped back into Car Mechanic Simulator 2021 through Game Pass. Hadn't picked it up since February 2024, but it's good to play in spells.
 
Finished AC6 which was just an excellent, excellent game that I miss. Quickly finished Is This Seat Taken? after and have just picked up Yakuza Kiwami 2 again after a long break so I have absolutely no idea what's going on or what the controls are.
