Too much. Last five games I've played in the last couple of days:

Batman: Arkham Knight
Dragon Age: Inquisition
Azure Striker: Gunvolt
Steven Universe: Attack the Light
Fragile Dreams: Farewell Ruins of the Moon

Biggest time sink right now is DA:I.

Arkanoid Live! on the 360. I didn't even know this existed until my daughter turned on my 360 by accident and we were playing around in the store. I went to the Puzzle and Triva section and low and behold, Arkanoid! Plus other Taito games. Keep in mind these were released in like 2008 or something.

I remember doing that in the past haha.

It's cool that Candy Land has a unique theme in this version, but man I miss that intro/happy theme that played in these levels. It fit the looks very well and was utterly sadistic in how cheerful it was, when the difficulty skyrockets in these levels and death and evil is around every corner.

Just makes me laugh and smile:

Yeah Candy Land should have been called Spike Land.

Playing Darius Burst Chroncicle Saviors. 1cc'd Easy, Normal and Hard course so far. Expert is kicking my ass and I tried Exceed which was insane. Great game but the Arcade part is only 3 stages long.

There is WAY too much word-salad going on in that Darius title.

Pokemon Picross came out and I am gobbling it up voraciously! I love Picross, more so than any crossword or sudoku, so this was right up my alley!

Also, if you are a crazy person who spends an infinite amount of money on free to play nonsense. If you end up spending $30, you get those resources for free. I will never spend a dime, but it is nice to see Nintendo put a cap on that so that people don't get too crazy.

Some random data: How many times I die in Final Fight per stage? Or "an argument against credit feeding".

Stage 1 (Slum) 0
Stage 2 (Subway) 1/2
Stage 3 (West Side) 1/2
Stage 4 (Industrial Area) 0/2
Stage 5 (Bay Area) 7
Stage 6 (Up Town) 11

Most of my games actually end on Stage 3. I still die to Sodom ocasionally and the Andore Cage Fight still gets me so any mistake made before that means my credit is over. On a good day I can make it to Stage 5, the Industrial Area isn't tough aside from the fire hazards and Rolento, its boss, is easy if there are lots of knives around.

Payday 2

Ack and I started playing it last night. I played the first game and was not impressed. Sloppy gun play and stupid AI ruined the cool concept for me. Payday 2 on the other hand, has phenomenal gunplay, decent enemy AI, and gets tense quick. The coop bots are still dumb as rocks, but man alive two missions in and I am hooked.
