A few of the games that have us hooked at the moment.

Hello!

This week: zombies, personas, and erased names.

A masculine Japanese character in suit and tie, sat behind what looks like a gambling table, and extending two fingers in a kind of gun shape towards the camera. Behind them, there’s an explosion of electric blue light.

Armed with that knowledge, though, I’m enjoyingPersona 3 Reloada lot more.

Reload is a clear step backwards played after P5, but its familiarity is oddly comforting.

Still, it’s got me thinking about what’s next for the series, and for Atlus.

No wonder Persona 6 is likely so far away.

What I’m really excited about, though, isMetaphor: ReFantazio.

I can’t wait.

So that’s what we played and it was… fine?

I’m a bit muted because there were things I liked and things I didn’t.

I know what I sound like by the way: someone’s dad who doesn’t play games.

It’s his Fortnite training.

I was all over the place; it’s my Baldur’s Gate 3 training.

I would carry him, so to speak, and prop us both up.

Now I do - and I was too busy getting chewed on by a zombie to notice.

I couldn’t quite get there, but the self-inflicted hunt for it was amusing for a while.
