I dug into any Nintendo stuff that fits my brick-breaker/fixed screen shooter theme. Then I started a new game list and played what I could without spending anything. Then the usual backups. 

Around this time, I like to make a list of games that are releasing in the coming year that I’m looking forward to.  Of course, this isn’t a full complete list, as there will assuredly be titles announced throughout the year that I may get as well. But anyway, here’s what I know now, for the most part, so let’s take a look at what games I’m looking forward to in 2025!

Really, two weeks of stuff here. I swap out consoles like they were cakes on display at a cake shop except for the Xbox Series S, which is always hooked up. 

2024 has come and gone. There were ups and downs (my gosh, it could be downright brutal at times) but I got to play cool games and that's what really matters, right?

i played a bunch of stuff from my month's theme (70s). When I run out of stuff on a particular day, I default to Lego Star Wars. 

Once a month, I do the rounds at the four indie game stores in my area and see what I can find. Part 1 of this happened a week ago and included two stores (Classic Game Junkies and Game 'n' DVD Exchange). Today was Part 2 and two other stores a little farther away (Just Press Play and Complete in Box). Here's what I got this week:

It’s time for my “Best Video Games of 2024 Awards Show!”  Keep in mind that this is my list only and no other outside opinions contributed.  And if a game isn’t on this list, it either just didn’t appeal to me as much or I haven’t had a chance to play it yet.  Ok with that out of the way, let’s begin!

Usually if I forget to include a game I got in a particular month, I will just lump it in with the next month. But since January starts a new year, I want to keep all the games gotten in the previous year together. 

Games Beaten

This week I played a lot of different stuff but mostly brick-breakers like Breakout and Arkanoid.
