It's 2015 y'all. That means a new list to help me keep track of the dumb vidja games that I'll end up playing a decent amount of this year. Criteria for being on this list is whatever I want it to be.

I can't think of a better way to start off the new year than by playing the surprisingly decent sequel to a game I still have trouble forming a firm opinion on. It's not bad! Admittedly, still not great, but a definite step-up from XIII in a lot of ways.
I went digging into the crazy post-game stuff this had to offer and came out with a maxed out party and beat the super duper hard optional boss. It's safe to say I think this game is really great.
Know what makes this already great game even better? A speed hack that makes the battles significantly faster. Doesn't really deal with the aggressive, occasionally ruthless level scaling, but ehhhhhhh.
Oh right. I beat FFXIII-2. Now it's dress up time. The combat has potential, but hasn't explained itself super well thus far.
A D grade RPG that takes its cues from better written, better playing ones.
Once you get past the part where this is an Etrian Odyssey game with some SMT mechanics thrown in, it's basically 100% raw, uncut, entirely shameless Persona 3 and 4 fan service. It's also a decent dungeon crawler, but I'm not sure I'd recommend it to people who aren't also Persona fans.
My most recent time through with the third Resident Evil game has reminded me how generous it is with ammo and how butt-clenchingly terrifying the titular Nemesis is.
Of course, the reason I was playing RE3 in the first place was to prepare myself for the HD re-release of this gem. Hey! It's still awesome. Surprise!
Oh right I played the first one too. Sorta rough but still charming in its own way.
Whoops I got addicted to League again. Whoops I can feel my carpal tunnel flaring up again. Which is probably why I haven't played as much as I thought I would.
