I pretty much played all the retro games I wanted to play. I usually take a day or two off work and beat recent releases. I'm probably one of the few people on this site without a backlog. So, I pretty much buy the recent releases and beat them within the month for the next release. Right now I am on Resident Evil 4 and might just skip 100% it since Dead Space Remake was so much better and wait for Minecraft Legends, then Dead Island 2 then Star Wars Survivors.
