To be completely honest, I am listening to the original soundtrack while writing this article. I am also looking forward to the SaGa Frontier’s remastered release as well as No More Heroes 3. I am tempted to play Splatoon 2 again to be prepared for the 3rd installment coming out next year. Oh the anticipation! So many games, so little time! What are you most excited for? Comment below!
Let’s have an incredible year of gaming!
