Current gen games you still hope to get around to?

Recommended Posts

Most new releases have next-gen versions or upgrades planned (Nintendo exclusives excepting). 2020's been a huge help for my backlog already, but there's still so much left to cover.  What do you all hope to get around to before it gets forgotten about?

 

Wii U games could count as well, if that's a question.

  • crispy4000 changed the title to Current gen games you still hope to get around to?

I’ll just mention PS4 games I’m still looking to pick up, although I’ll be getting a Switch (finally/hopefully) next month so I’ll be using that for any indie releases for the past year.

 

Anyway:

 

Spiderman

Final Fantasy 7

Doom Eternal

Resident Evil 3

Control

Outer Worlds

Jedi: Fallen Order

 

Then on my PS+ account I’d like to play through Detroit: Become Human and possibly Borderlands 2.

I picked up a few PS4 games i still need to get through. Dragon's Crown, Tales of Berseria, some of them anime tiddy games like Gal Gun...

 

I have Dragon Quest XI and Yakuza Kiwami but Yakuza is on game pass already and DQ11 will be there in December so i'll probably just play them on my X1X or XSX.

 

On the Xbox i have too many to list.

Based only on what I’ve played, I’d pitch prioritizing these.    

 

I’d probably make LiS my number 1 for what it offers on the whole.  It goes wild places.  Even more than Edith Finch.

 

You could put off the 3D platformers a while if you’re not that into the genre, but the those three are top shelf.  Though be warned, they’re all a bit collection heavy.

 

You could swap Xenoblade out for DQXI later this year (I know we’ve talked about that).  I adore both games.  Pick Xeno if you want more exploration and plot, pick DQXI if you want something more light hearted and traditional.  You’re getting Switch graphics either way, lol.

Your backlog is far worse than mine.... I've played and beaten quite a few of those on your list. Your problem is you get caught up in the multiplayer games lol! You've got some pretty good single player games on that list you can tackle and some are pretty short. Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is pretty good and it's not too long at all for example.

My list, based on what I currently own that was released this gen.  I came into the generation late, and waited for bargin bin price drops and freebies.  So that's my excuse.

It's not quite as bad as I thought... I'll probably aim to beat most of the primary list games.

God of War - I've started and stopped this so many times

Jedi Fallen Order - Played a couple hours at most

Kingdom Hearts 3 - I'm super close to the end. The series just doesn't hold the same charm it use to as a kid/teen.

Shadow of the Colossus - I'm near halfway

FFXV - Once I heard there was going to be a ton of story DLC after I immediately put the game down. Its been on the backburner ever since.

Witcher 3 - Just too big to handle.

Alien Isolation

 

That's all I can think of off the top of my head

You need to get rid of 90% of those games. You’re giving me anxiety.

One day I'd like to try and beat the two Xenoblade games I haven't beat, but other than that, I really don't have anything else. There are games I am going to be playing and beating, but not until I get tired of FFXIV and WoW once the expansion comes out. But with FFXIV I have about 6-7 games worth of content left to do so I plan on making this my main game and only taking a break for 2077.

I’m pretty content with what I played this gen. There are few games at this point I’m going to wait to play or finish (assuming my save transfers over)

 

finish:

FF7: Remake

Ghosts of Tsushima

Outer Worlds

 

havent started and now waiting:

Control

Doom: Eternal

 

switch games I need to finish:

Luigis Mansion

Xenoblade Chronicles 

 

EDIT: Thought about this more and realized I never played Halo 4. So I need to do that b4 new Halo drops. also amass Effect: Andromeda.

Anymore this line is pretty blurry.  What is this gen vs next gen?  For the next few months some of the best next gen games are going to be current gen games with new paint.

 

All that being said - some of you need to let go of your backlog.  If your list is longer than 10-15 games... you are probably never going to get to them.  :)

I've beaten 16 backlogged games just this year.

The pile still may outgrow what I can burn, but new game prices will hold higher than normal for a while due to the generation transition.  Gives me an excuse to catch up.  It's usually what I do.

I'm not optimistic about getting to all of them, which is why I try to prioritize the games I most want to play.  I've stepped away from as much Multiplayer gaming this year to try to tackle some backlog, and it's coming around.

 

And it's a reason I am so interested in the BC capabilities of the PS5 and XSX, and my lack of caring too much about eithers launch lineup.  I am just as excited playing some of the games on my list as I would be playing Halo Infinite or a Spiderman/Demon Souls.  All the games on my list, I currently own and hope to play.  I know PC could replay most of those games better, but I have no intentions of rebuying them.
