Platinumed Virginia. The game makes you do 2 playthroughs , even though there's nothing different on the 2nd playthrough.
I must say , the game has some beautiful and emotional music. There's a story segment in which your character goes to one of those more elegant style bars, and there's some relaxing music playing which sounds like a mixture between soft rock and new age, and since the story is set in the early 90's , I guess the musical artistry from from late 80's and early 90's was still alive.
The story could have made a decent movie , I think it's more suited to being a movie than a game.

I've begun Full Throttle. It's a short game, so I'll be done with it soon, but I've had a quick play of it. It's setting is interesting, being in a wasteland with motorcycle gangs fighting each other. I like it how the characters have a survivalist attitude, it makes things kinda refreshing, not an over-the-top style of angry like in Gears of War.

Today was meant to be a rest day from gaming, but I discovered a game named ''Drowning'' , which is a story about a boy who has depression and his experiences , expressed with an abstract style. It's dirt cheap and has a nice and heartfelt style to it.

Platinumed Drowning. It definitely is depressing, but also a very emotionally-moving game. Some of the trophies involve doing things that I think are hinting suicide. A lot of games involving mental illness are coming out nowadays. Hellblade gets much attention (and rightfully so), but one game that handles the concept very well (and realistically) is Actual Sunlight.
I think it's no surprise mental health is deteriorating around the world, with the gaps between rich and poor ever growing, and the world's ecology being destroyed.

Platinumed Full Throttle. It has a great story, even though the game is short. It's kinda like a Mad Max meets biker culture type thing. It's easy to see the style of the game is from the 90's, and it's a shame most developers nowadays play it safe, and won't try something original. I can recommend this game, even for people who don't like motorcycles or the biker culture. It's an atmospheric and entertaining point and click adventure.

Picked up Yakuza 0. Some of the Yakuza games are cheap now on PS Store. Like I've mentioned before , I enjoyed Yakuza 1, 2, 3 and 4 , with Yakuza 4 being one of my top 10 games. Still yet to play 0, 5 and 6. I choose 0 , because many people say 0 is the best out of the remaining ones I'm yet to play.

Yakuza 0, another deep story with pretty Asian ladies. You should see them in Yakuza 6, when there's an internet cafe and Kiryu is googling confused at a computer during a live chat with one of the "girls" XD

Finally have free time to play more Yakuza 0. Just like I do in real life, I'm investing in property.

Yakuza 0's story has an interesting way of using the "not black or white "concept . I can't give away spoilers but it will make you feel for the innocent people and more Shady people. Like I've said it has good character development. Seemingly bad people choosing a different path Since the postal service effed up delivering my copy of Valkyria Chronicles 4, I'm workin on finishing Yakuza 0. Dressed up the hostess Yuki nicely, choose her hairstyle and clothes and made the cabaret club profitable .

You might be interested to learn that Yakuza 6 and Fire Pro Wrestling World are, indeed, connected! Remember the street fighting minigame? The one where you build your own gang? They are all NJWP wrestlers! I met the Rainmaker last night!
