Whew...Things have finally calmed down around here, so I've had plenty of free time for gaming. Here's what I've been going at.

Sonic R is a Sonic the Hedgehog Racing Game. Hated by many, I actually enjoy it a lot. I've been playing the PS2 Port on Sonic Gems Collection, an Import Collection of Sonic Games. This game is hated so much by everyone, that there is actually a myth that if you use a certain character in it, you will die. This is crap, of course. It's a fun game with some Characters not seen in any other Sonic game, and it also has catchy music. It's well worth any Sonic/Racing fan's time.

Persona 4 Golden is a remake of Persona 4 for the Vita. Originally released for the PS2, it has new content on the Vita. It is a School Sim/RPG where you have to solve a Murder Mystery while living life as a High School Student. Unlike actual High School though, this is fun, and, you know, NOT LAME. Since you've all probably played Persona 4 on the PS2, there isn't much more for me to say about this one, other than should you be looking to play Persona 4 again, play this version.

Valhalla Knights 3 is an RPG for the Vita. It's the sequel to the 2nd one on the PSP, as well as the Spin-Off on the Wii. It's quite challenging, and described by many as a chore to play. That being said, stupid critics constantly give the games bad scores, and so naturally, people agree with them, and they sell poorly. Still, there are true fans, and while the game can be hard to play, and there really is nothing new here, it's still a fun game. It's definitely not for everyone though, due to some suggestive material (It's rated M for crying out loud!).

Assassin's Creed IV is...actually pretty cool. Initially, I hated the series, but this one really fixed everything. It's open world, it's about a Pirate turned Assassin, there's plenty of things to do, and what's more, it's all based on historic events. Not much more to say here, as you've all probably played it. I've been playing the Wii U Version.

Well, that's all for now. See you all next entry.

The "Golden" in your title was not what I expected.

I've been hearing quite a bit about AC IV lately from a few friends, but I admit what I heard most about was your crew singing sea shanties and then telling them to shut up.  I want to play it but I kind of want to play some of the others first, just because I know if I don't and play IV or Brotherhood first I won't want to play the more "broken" ones.
 
@bombatomba:

What kind of "Golden" were you expecting?
 
@ReddMcKnight:  While it wasn't my favorite JRPG, I've had Golden Sun on GBA on my brain for a while, so that was the first thing my mind sent to.
 
I've always been more into Sonic R and Rivals over Drift, Riders, and All-Stars Racing. Mainly 'cuz Sonic and friends can go faster than some measly car or hoverboard.
 
@Zagnorch P. Welinskivich II, Esq.:

What's your opinion/view on Sonic Battle for the GBA, good sir?
 
Redd - I think you'll love this speedrun of Sonic R done at the most recent AGDQ. I loved Sonic R on the Saturn, and I know most of the people in this video. While it may seem awkward at times (especially if you don't know them - as a warning, it has men cross-dressed in cosplay of their most popular games to speedrun while singing horribly to the music of Sonic R if that makes you uncomfortable), it was done for charity and there was great commentary and visibility for the game:
