That's all I have for now. Will likely come back with more because I have a lot of obscure games to try, and looking to get more. Here's what I picked up so far used online or back when the 360 store was still up. Never owned a 360 so I'm excited to get into the dark corners of it's catalog.

Surprise! That 12 for 12 Challenge was a part of something bigger I was working on.

I have 10 gaming related goals I'll be working on in 2026, and idk if I can check em all off, but looking at them, it shouldn't be so hard...right?

Read all about them on the site right now!

I played more games than I watched movies in 2025. That's wild lowkey but I'll accept it.

More data, please witness me!

If not for FOMO I'd completely ignore all the music wrapped posts until the year fully ends because @last.fm fast the best wrapped feature of ALL TIME.

Mainly because it's the only place that tracks my listening across Apple, Spotify, & YT Music. Yay data! www.last.fm/user/Ejspong...

Okay ONE last minute change, I will take off Immortality (which still looks cool!) for Curse of the Golden Idol, which I did specifically buy for this challenge and WONT DO FOR ANY OTHER GAME. I figure it's recommended so much, and that's the point of the challenge anyway, so I'll do it right!

And finally, @endorphinssc.bsky.social recommended AI: The Somnium Files forever ago and I picked it up for cheap during the Winter Steam sale. I think now is the time to finally give it a shot, so I will!

I appreciate the recs, but I'm trying to stick to things I have in my backlog already. And of the games like this that I own, I pick Immortality. All of these games have vids I've wanted to watch but can't due to spoilers, but after Immortality I can finally watch the NoClip and Jacob Gellar's vids.

I hit up the homie @almightyrich.bsky.social to get his input and he recommended Stellar Blade. I legit forgot this game even came out despite being pretty excited for it and picking it up the year it dropped. I'll be finally playing that this year, thank you!

Bet! I absolutely adore DMC V so I'm sure I'll like the combat, but I have no idea if I'll like the story at all. I've never played a Final Fantasy game but I picked up 16 for cheap recently. I'll make sure it doesn't sit on the shelf too long!

Okay, adding Chrono Trigger to really get me out of my comfort zone. I don't think I've ever beaten a JRPG, I need to play more classics from the past, and I think @tlfoster.bsky.social really fucks with the game so Imma try and get through it this year.
