Your Summer Video Game Playlist

[bikingjahuty]

The inspiration for this thread came from when I was in elementary school we were required to read 5 books during the summer, sometimes we got to choose, and other times we didn't. I thought it would be fun to do a summer video game play list in the same spirit where you list at least 5 games you plan on playing this summer.

I can dig it. Let's see...

1. Dragon Star Varnir
2. Crystar
3. SaGa Frontier (I'm on a replay now of Blue/Rouge, but I want to do one more character. I'm thinking Red).
4. Samurai Shodown
5. 428 Shibuya Scramble

I'm going to step it up and do 10 games that I intend on beating before the end of September. I will probably end up playing more than that, but these are the ones I want to play the most. BTW, they are in no particular order in terms of priority.


1. Banjo Kazooie(N64) or Donkey Kong 64(N64)
2. Chrono Cross(PS1)
3. Final Fantasy VIII(PS1)
4. Sonic Adventure(Dreamcast) - actually plan on starting this 9/9/19 to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the DC
5. Outrun 2(XBOX)
6. Sonic Mania(Switch)
7. Wave Race 64(N64)
8. Duke Nukem 3D(PC)
9. Cruisn' USA(N64)
10. Mega Man Legends(PS1)

4. Samurai Shodown

i'm assuming you're referring to the new one that comes out next month. i am so hyped for this game!!! It looks incredible!

I know for me I want to get Shenmue 1 and 2 beat before the third game drops!!

First off, excellent choices! Second, I have serious doubts that Shenmue III is going to hit its target release date this coming fall. There has been no gameplay footage yet, just cinematic cutscenes/trailers. I honestly don't think this game will actually come out until next Spring at the earliest. I hope I'm wrong, however I'd rather have the game come out a year later and be excellent, than it to come out this fall and be unfinished and mediocre. We'll see though.

I've only really got one game that releases over the summer that I'm interested in, so most everything would be backlog tackling:

1) Fire Emblem: Three Houses
2) Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition
3) Dragon Quest XI
4) Far Cry: New Dawn
5) Pokemon: Let's Go Eevee

Yeah I was a little suprised when I saw that GameStop opened up preorders and they list an August release date. I agree, I wouldn't be suprised if they delay it again, which is fine with me. I still need to play the first two games!

I've played it a hundred times, just never beaten it. The closest I ever came was Duke 64 back in the day, but not having a decent PC growing up I was confined to playing it at friends' houses or on inferior ports. I've had the atomic edition on GOG for years now, just need to sit down and play it.
