        Re: 2018 Gaming Plans

        Since the beginning of 2015 I've stuck to a "play one game per month" schedule which has actually worked really well for me in terms of finishing games and minimizing my back log

        If the game is very long I might "allocate" an additional month or two like I did with Fallout 4 where I spent 3 straight months finishing the game 100% then 1 month later on for all DLC.

        So my planned schedule for 2018 is as follows:

        January = LA Noire
        February = South Park: Fractured But Whole
        March = Okami
        April = Far Cry 5
        May = Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus
        June = ?
        July = ?
        August = Assassin's Creed Origins
        September = Assassin's Creed Origins
        October = FIFA 2019
        November = NBA 2K19
        December = Madden NFL 2019

        The first 5 games I've already bought (except Far Cry 5 of course) so I'm definitely playing through them first...installing LA Noire as I type! For the sports games I usually just play a season and/or the story modes.

        I've set aside August for AC Origins because I played AC Syndicate last August 2017 so it has become "Assassin's Creed August" for me now but I might need to continue into September in order to finish the game.

        The middle 2 months remain unallocated as I'm not sure what other games are coming out early next year yet...but I'm also keen to pick up a Nintendo Switch soon so those could be saved for Super Mario Odyssey

          My backlot is so big just beat Knack last night but still have a backlot of like 50 games lol. When it comes to new games coming out in 2018 I am not really sure what I am going to get yet other then the fact I cant wait for Spider-Man on ps4. I am really interested to see what switch does in 2018. I don't know of any games coming out in 2018 yet that I want to get for switch. Really hoping we get a new DK game.

                  Re: 2018 Gaming Plans

                  I'm looking forward to 2018 gaming after buying a PS4 Pro and 4K TV in late November. So naturally my most played game at the moment is 2D Pillars of Eternity on an old lap top. Yes, I'm a man of many contradictions. I said I was going to work on my backlog last year and instead I bought a ton of games near the end of the year. My New Year's Resolution is to clear some of the backlog.

                  Far Cry 5

                    Currently playing:

                    Witcher 3 (on blood and wine, last thing before first playthrough is finished)

                    Overwatch, easily playing this the most. Got a group of regulars to play with.

                    Forza Horizon 3 (just picked it back up and fallen in love a second time)

                    MLB 17 The Show

                    Next games on the list (once Witcher 3 is done):


                    Two or three indie games on my massive backlog.

                    Horizon: Zero Dawn, for the second time, this time with the expansion.

                    New Fallout 4 playthrough with new modlist

                    Plan to purchase:

                    MLB 18

                    Wait and see on Red Dead Redemption 2.

                      Re: 2018 Gaming Plans

                      Oh man the 2nd half of 2017? Has been my most active gaming period in years.

                      Currently playing:
                      -Mario odyssey (finished story but collecting additional power moons)

                      - Zelda breath of the wild (just got it for Christmas from the wife)

                      -Steam World Dig (Xbox one, part 1, just picked it up on sale as a cheap way to see if I would be interested in part 2 on the switch)

                      -LEGO Worlds (Xbox one, bought it for my son the other day and ended up spending 3 hours landscaping and building a house)

                      -Pokemon Fire Red (Almost finished, never played a Pokémon game before, loving it to my total surprise)

                      Games I bought but have to get to or get back to:

                      -Uncharted the Nathan Drake collection(PS4... obviously)

                      -Tomb Raider Definitive Edition (Xbox One

                      - The Witcher 3(bought it like a year ago, I swear I’ll finish it one day)

                      -Mario Kart 8 (Switch, also got it for Christmas, need to spend some more time diving into it)

                      Mario + Rabbis Kingdom Battle (picked it up over Black Friday. Fun game but with so many games to play it’s gone on the back burner.)

                      Games I’ll probably buy in 2018:

                      -Horizon Zero Dawn (Kicking myself for not picking it up for $20 over Black Friday, definitely want to get to it)

                      - Steam World Dig 2 (Switch, keep hearing great things and part 1 is pretty cool. Seems like a good game for on the go with the Switch)

                      -Stardew Valley (Switch, again I keep hearing it’s a must have on Switch. I’ll pick it up at some point)

                      -Assassins Creed Origins (Xbox one. Waiting for a good sale)

                      -Snipperclips (played the demo, had fun, I’ll pick it up at some point)

                      -Pokemon HeartGold then maybe ultra Sun or Moon)

                      -Wolfenstein New colossus ( *maybe, not quite sold on it yet)

                      -Skyrim (Switch if it goes on a good sale like $20)

                      I’ll most likely pick up a new 4K HDR TV at some point this year. I want to wait til I get this before I pick up AC:Origins and Horizon Zero Dawn.

                      Wow.... after pretty much a decade of only buying 2k and an occasional PC game, it’s crazy how many games are on my to play list.

                        I like it. It's like a text sim for a police chief with a story line that actually has some depth.

                          I got way too many games on my backlog to get anything new except for Red Dead and God of War. Those are in my top 5 series of all time so they are must buys. I’ll hold off and get Red Dead on pc though.

                          Spider-Man is also probably a buy.

                              Nothing on my 2018 shopping list yet. Most of my new gaming will come from sales of older titles and playing what I already have.

                              I have definitely hit the wall on simulation sports games (this includes WWE 2k). The most fun I had with sports games in 2017 came from Super Mega baseball, NBA Playgrounds, and a 2017 roster edition of Super Tecmo Bowl.

                              Sim sports games are dead to me, with the exception of The Golf Club, The Show (which I a trying to find settings for that will keep me engaged), and possibly a version of NBA 2K for the blacktop mode.

                                I have three games pre-ordered for 2018:
                                Red Dead Redemption
                                Days Gone
                                Spiderman

                                But if I only played RDR2, I'd still be more than happy.
