The evolution of Kathryn Crimson, my Create-A-Wrestler in the 2K series. 2K23 > 2K24 > 2K25

Recently, I decided to do a Zelda collection. A lot of this I already owned like the Oracle games and such, but I think it’s coming along. Definitely need to rejig how I display since I have more but so far, I like it. It’s small, but it’s awesome. (That’s what she said)

It’s not my name but having the score of my review in an accolades trailer will always get a pop from me! @cookiecutterdev.bsky.social made a fantastic Metroidvania, too. With it now coming to Switch, maybe I’ll have to double dip. Way Too Many Games! This is so, so cool!

Cover art is reversible! Also has the ability to jump between Classic and refined graphics, among other things. It’s super exciting. I’m so happy to know it releases soon!

I’m way too excited for Lunar. This franchise is so, so special to me. I’m still hunting for the PS1 versions to replace mine. As a kid, I lost some of the pieces like Lucia’s pendant. Also, look at the new key art! There has definitely been refinements! April 18th!

#PaxEast has recognized me again this year. At times like this, I can’t help but reflect. I owe so much to Stack Up for the opportunities they’ve afforded me. I’ve had so many supporting me, from PR reps that have become friends, to my family. Thank you, everyone, for humouring this loser.

As I’m slowly trying to dig myself out from the depths of burn out, I’ve been playing an old favourite. Yup, that’s FC 24. What? I’m Portuguese, did you expect any different?

2025 has a twisted sense of humour! I dig it. For those unaware, this brave girl lost her battle. Our cancer isn’t the same but man, the New Year has no chill. lol

Finally, I can play Canada’s favourite road game. Whose Lane is it Anyway!? It’s an invigorating experience when you’re trying to figure out if you’re in your designated line or straddling two at once!

I’ll forever sing the praises of this little device. I just can’t get over that I’m 3 hours or so from home and playing on my PS5. Not only that but because it’s streaming, the battery doesn’t drain in an hour or some shit. I legit love the #PlaystationPortal. Sorry for the gushing. 🫣🫣

So, I’m currently traveling because of cancer related appointments. As such, I had to try the update that allows the #PlaystationPortal to connect to hotel wi-fi. I’m around 3 hours from my PS5. Guess what? That’s right, it works flawlessly. This is why I stand by this product.

Since i started work, I’ve decided to treat myself to a few games because it’s Black Friday. My plan was to stick with only those that are on sale but I saw #LiesofP and had to grab it at $60. Quite difficult to get ahold of! Anyone have feedback? #GameHaul

The last couple of days, I’ve been hammered by anxiety. It’s gotten so bad that I went on CBD gummies - I take about six a day! In that time, I’ve been unable to write reviews. I’ve also come to learn that #Pokemon is my comfort food. I’m going to muscle through and jump into Legends!
