Hey Destructoid, and happy first weekend of July. It’s that time of the week where we sit down and discuss our plans for the next few days and what we intend to play, whether it’s something recently released, or something we are looking to dig deep into to pass the time.
First of all, happy July 4th weekend for everyone who celebrates it! Hope everyone has a good three-day weekend full of games and BBQ this time of year. But now, let’s get on to the good part.
The start of July has been a bit slow for releases, but with the Steam Summer Sale ongoing, its the perfect time to buy a bunch of games we have been holding out for and work on any backlogs we have, ahead of the bigger releases coming out the next few weeks likeDonkey Kong BananzaandTony Hawk 3+4 Remake.
But enough about the future, let’s discuss today.
I plan to play a bit morePEAKthis weekend to try and clear some more of the harder Ascent levels by myself or with friends, while trying to secure the last of the achievements I need to get a filled-out sash. It’s taking quite a while, and I like the challenge, so I’m hoping to tick off some more self-made challenges before the end of the weekend.
Outside ofPEAK,there aren’t really any other games I’m personally looking to play, even when I look at my backlog. I might try to have a few games ofREMATCHwith my little brother if we can both find the time, but nothing else really sticks out. So i’ll waffle about what some of my colleagues have been up to, and then you all can let me know in the comments what your plans are so I can get some unique suggestions.
A few friends and colleagues are still trying to get through the recentPALWORLDupdate and get all the new Terrariaitems and Pals that were released in it. Some are also playing through some old retro games to pass the time, or trying out various Switch games that got patches on Switch 2 to improve their performance.
I used to speedrunSuper Mario Odyssey, and withDonkey Kong Bananzabeing made by the same team, I might go back to that to find any moons I couldn’t get previously when trying to 100 percent complete the game to get in the mood for later this month. Otherwise, I’m all out of ideas.
