Final Fantasy XVI

June 25, 2023 | Reading time: 2 minutes

I'm not normally one to pick up games on release day. especially not games that cost $70. After I played the FF16 demo though, I knew I had to pick this one up. I'm about 5 hours into the main game, so 7 total including the demo, and while the game so far hasn't quite hit the levels of the demo,...

Trackmania

June 13, 2023 | Reading time: ~1 minute

Trackmania is the latest in the Trackmania series, and saw the series shift to a free to play model. I like Trackmania, and have played a bit of Trackmania Turbo on the PS$. That one was most single player, while this one is more of a multiplayer affair.

Street Fighter 6

June 4, 2023 | Reading time: ~1 minute

I am not really a fan of fighting games. The inputs are too complicated, and I get frustrated easily when I get destroyed online. That said, I did like Dragon Ball FighterZ, mostly because I like the franchise. I don't have much experience with SF, but after reading reviews and seeing how much...

Warhammer 40,000: Speed Freeks Alpha Test

June 3, 2023 | Reading time: ~1 minute

Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks is a forthcoming car combat game in the vein of Twisted Metal. I don't have a ton of experience with the genre, and there's really not many games that fill that niche these days, so I was excited to give this game's free Alpha Test a try.

Portal

June 3, 2023 | Reading time: ~1 minute

Believe it or not, I've never actually given Portal a fair shake. It's been in my Steam library forever, and I've played a few minutes here and there, but I've never actually sat down to really play it. Yesterday I randomly thought about it and decided to give it another go.

GRID Legends

May 7, 2023 | Reading time: ~1 minute

I've played GRID games in the past, and they've always been competent arcade racers with a touch of sim. I expected nothing less from Legends, and with it being a May PS Plus freebie I figured I may as well try it out. And that's exactly what I've got - Legends is a competently-made, fun,...

About

My name's Mike, and this is the Lore Depository - my spot online where I can write out my thoughts on games, books, tech, movies, and anything else I find interesting.

My biggest project is my Game Library Project. I have a ton of games collected throughout the years, and have barely played any of them. Check out the linked post to learn more about the project, and click here to be taken to the category page where you can see all my posts for the project.

Another project I'm working on is my Pokemon Living Dex Challenge, where I try to obtain one of each available Pokemon and transfer them into Pokemon Home.

Other content comes mainly in 3 forms:
• Reviews, where I post longer-form writeups
• Thoughts, short & quick first impressions posts
• Guides, detailed how-tos and walkthroughs
