PS4 & PS5 Games

Okay, here comes the random list of games and it’s a lot. Seriously, I’ve never heard of some of these but they sound kinda fun or weird. Anyway:

• Aidan In Danger: Sounds like someone didn’t do their homework, right?
• Amazing Weekend 2: Collector’s Edition, because why not?
• Arcade Archives RYUKYU: Feels vintage, doesn’t it? Old-school vibes.
• Around the World 3: Another collector’s thing. Who’s collecting all these anyway?
• ASTBALL: No clue what that is, but it seems sporty?
• Blades of Fire: Sounds intense. Maybe too intense.
• BOMBARDINO CROCODILO vs TUNG TUNG SAHUR: Can’t even pronounce this, but I’m curious.
• Boomerang King: Is this Australian-themed or what?
• Casual Sport Series: Badminton: Because who doesn’t want casual badminton?
• Cat Life Simulator: Yes, we’re simulating cats now. World’s gone mad.
• Cookie Clicker: You click cookies. Profound, huh?
• Cop Officers: NYPD gets a video game, of course.
• CrimeBound Chronicles: I can already hear the dramatic music.
• Dark Deception: Sounds like a B-movie plot.
• Deliver At All Costs: That dramatic, huh?
• Downward: But what does it MEAN?
• Duck Detective: There’s a ghost AND a secret salami. True story.
• Dungeon Arsenal: Probably filled with medieval stuff.
• FANTASY LIFE i: A girl, time travel, you get it.
• Foto Boy: He flashes? Literally or metaphorically?
• Gore Doctor: Might need a strong stomach.
• Hentai Girls: The titles get weirder. Someone explain, please.
• Hole Digging Beach Simulator: You dig holes. At a beach. Yup.
• I’m Frontline: Sounds brave. I’m already rooting for them.
• Ice Cream Super Stacking Slot Machine: Makes zero sense, I’m intrigued.
• Knock on the Coffin Lid: Because why wouldn’t you?
• LONG EDGE WINS: Winning is involved, apparently.
• Lynked: I feel like there’s a pun here.
• Magnitude: Eta: Intensity? At eta time? I’m lost.
• Masters Pool HD: Just…pool, in high def.
• Nightshade Mysteries: Sounds eerily serene.
• Ninja Stars: Stars that are ninjas? Or ninjas with stars?
• Odsparks: Automation adventure? Sure.
• Onimusha 2: Samurai always sound epic.
• OpsCam: Is this Cops, but for PS5?
• Parkour on Rooftops: Yes please, where do I sign up?
• Pincer Attack: Sounds military. Or maybe about crabs.
• Quisisana: Isn’t this a fancy hotel or something? Wrong list?
• Roboquest: Robots questing, typical day.
• Rolling Ball: As opposed to the standing still ball?
• Soccer Golf: Because why pick just one sport?
• Splitgate 2: There was a first one? Missed that memo.
• TRALALERO TRALALA: Backrooms and pools. Just all over the place.
• Two Strikes: Baseball, boxing, existential crises?

That’s a lot. Maybe too much. There’s more for Europe but, well, next time.
