Another quiet month as far as games played. Still focused a bunch on Mahjong Soul, slowly getting closer to Jade Room. I did play a few games, and went back to Balatro a bit because it’s so fucking good. And I tried a fun little thing that I’ll quickly comment on.

Big focus this month will be on all the presentations that happened… I’ll just talk about 3 of them because nothing else was worth talking about. In fact one of the 3 is also not worth talking about, but dunking on Lizardman is worth.

So let’s go!

Ayo. It’s another month. June COULD be interesting because it’s “E3” time so a bunch of companies are doing presentations to announce games and stuff… I’d say there’s a solid 2% chance something interesting will be announced, considering how this year has gone so far (if leaks are true we’re at least getting a new Doom, but I put no trust in leaks). The industry is in shambles and basically no game company cares, it’s actually insane.

And if the State of Play from today is any indication, things will continue being shit. I was planning to post about the State of Play separately… but fuck that, it really wasn’t worth it. If I do a post about “E3” presentations I will mention it there, but as it is… the most interesting game was Infinity Nikki, and that’s a previously-announced game… that’s coming to PC (as are all games that were shown in the State of Play, AstroBot might be the one exception)… The PS5 is such a stupid console, don’t buy it 😀

So for June 2024 I’m highlighting: 7 multiplats, 2 Switch games, a PC release and a PS4 game… Yes, 4. As for big highlights, I can’t say there’s any, considering the biggest thing here is fucking DLC. There’s a few things here I might grab, but it’s another slow month, surprising no one.

Let’s go!

Disclaimer: I only list games that I think are worth mentioning. This includes games I’m personally interested in, games that will likely be popular, highly advertised games, some more niche stuff I may notice, and such. This is not just games I care about myself, I highlight as much as I think makes sense. Of course, I can’t see the future, so I may be missing games and I may be listing games that may get delayed.

Got a few reviews posted in May, and I actually have 2 more that I’m writing right now and a few games that I’m playing as well that I’ll review… not counting all the stuff I’m getting in June. Things are going pretty great writing-wise.

So June is E3 month, and E3 isn’t being skipped this year. I already talked about how weird it is for E3 to exist anymore. I have basically no excitement for E3 or its weird app thing. But hey, there could be some fun announcements. So there’s possible hype there, maybe. I prefer to go in with zero expectations.

Other than E3, June is a pretty exciting month games-wise this year, surprisingly. I’m buying at least 7 new games, with still a few “maybe” games too. It’s actually pretty crazy. So in June we’re gonna be seeing: 11 multiplats, 6 Switch releases, 3 PS5 releases and 3 PC releases. There’s some really cool stuff here.

Let’s go!
