I shouldn't have gotten into my game backlog. Started playing Marvel Midnight Suns. I'm 20 hours in and I'm hooked!

So let's recap. This jackass got on stage to trash Call Of Duty and promote his Call Of Duty clone game all the while, his Call Of Duty clone game is on the Call Of Duty developers subscription service.

So I put this on hold for a bit after getting stuck on the first boss, finally managed to beat it. So far not too big on the city building, that kinda gameplay has never been my thing. But the sidescrolling gameplay is great stuff along with the music! Might be in my top 5 SNES soundtracks.
