This is roughly the Xbox 360/PS3/Wii generation that I'm revisiting in July. I thought I'd take a peek at the top 16 on Metacritic for these years which will become my retro game list for that month. I like to make some notes on each too. 

I've picked up a few games this week. I'm at the end of Diablo IV. I've discovered a few new retro favorites. I've also done my usual casual plays for rewards points. Here it all 'tis. 

I can't resist looking ahead to the games I'm going to try and play for my retro gaming in June. This will cover the years 2000-2005, which is the Xbox/PS2/GameCube/Dreamcast/GBA generation roughly speaking. This also becomes a sort of shopping list when I'm out at the game stores. I like to make some notes along the way too, so here is the greatest games of all time list from Metacritic, 1-16,  for those years. 

It's been an interesting week trying to work down the metacritic list for '95-'99, grinding for Game Pass Rewards points and beating Diablo IV. Details follow. 

This is what my friend's Barbarian in Diablo IV says all the time as we're battling together. I can't resist repeating it whenever I hear it. He's got to work on keeping his rage meter filled. Anywho, I'm waiting for his cleaning lady to finish with his apartment before we game it up today (my day off). I thought I'd relate my progress on the late 90s Metacritic list I'm made. 

I can finally source Metacritic on a complete list of games across all systems. '95 seems to be the start of where they have enough reviews to use. I thought I'd post their list of top 14 games and then my current list of May retro plays picked for very different reasons. I do this just for fun and hopefully a little conversation. 

Yes, playing nothing but Diablo IV right now with my friend Mad Krammer. I have, however, been picking up other games including retro stuff. Retro gaming is ready to go whenever I can pull myself away. Here's Diablo IV and the games I've picked up lately. 

I've had a hard time pulling myself away from Diablo IV to get my retro gaming done but I've at least organized what I'm going to play. 

My game week is over, and I've already blogged about much of it, but there's a few more details to relate. 

I'm waiting for my car's oil change as I write this in the middle of my usual days off. It's killing half my gaming day, darn it, but it can't be helped. Here's what I've played so far this week.
