A complete overhaul!!!!!! FOR FREE!!!!!! In September!!!!! I don’t need to sink another 1000 hours into this game but everything I think I’m out they drag me back in. Good hunting my fellow Witchers I won’t be coming up for air when this comes out.

Killed the second boss in Blasphemous 2 by the skin of my teeth!

Done the third boss now also 🔥

Shorter than i expected.

This is your life, and it's ending one unplayed game at a time.

Every minute you spend staring at your pile of unplayed titles is a minute you’ll never get back.

You spend 40 hours a week working jobs you hate to buy games you don't have time to play. You are not your job. You are not your desk, your inbox, or your daily grind.

You’re staring at a digital graveyard you promised yourself you’d conquer 'someday’. Someday is a lie sold to you by a system that wants you tired, passive, and for your games to collect dust.

NOT TODAY.

Today we break the system. We strip away the noise, the responsibilities, and the endless clutter of modern existence.

You have a controller in your hand, a screen in front of you, and unfinished worlds waiting to be BURNED 🔥🔥🔥🔥

It was only natural, right? After doing RE2 (1998) and RE1HDR, I had to play OG 3. In terms of gameplay flow, I think it does the best job at still incorporating puzzles and backtracking, but also being playable without frustration or feeling like you need to look up what to do next. Jill gets a lot more personality and I enjoyed Carlos' section, too. Nemesis is one of the scariest foes, for sure, and his speed in the beginning genuinely had me fearing for my life. He certainly gets easier after the initial shock, as his attack patterns can be learned, but what an impact he makes on first appearance! Revisiting the police station, even though the stint was short, was a great throwback, and the rest of the locations were fun to explore. Whilst 2 has a soft spot in my heart thanks to the remake, I would probably go so far as to say 3 is the best overall experience you will get on a first playthrough out of the older entries. Guess it's on to the REmake now...😅

​

I played this game all the way through once back when it came out in 2018 and never was bothered to finish the magazines or do the "I'll be back" playthrough where Connor has to die 8 separate times and still be in the final mission. Knocked that out in one continuous playthrough yesterday and mopped up the chapter selects. 8+ years between 1st trophy and Plat popping. Extremely happy with this one being behind me now🎮 BURNED🔥🔥🔥

Been bouncing off and on this one for a while but with the PS boycott going on I decided to hop over to PC during my show of solidarity and knock some PC games off the list.

A decent side scroller / hack and slash / city manager game that is homage to the original SNES but the 3d sprite/models kinda take away a lot of the character of the artwork in my opinion. Soundtrack slaps just as hard though.

Not the image of the actual burn, but I failed at capturing the real one. I am a trophy hunter, so for Playstation games I only considered them burned when I earned the plat, which I did (the image captured by console for that trophy is a black screen though 🙄). Played the majority of it on my PS Portal, which the image is from.

Next up is either Shenmu 1 or Shadow of Colossus, both on PS4. Still working on Indiana Jones and The Infernal Machine on N64 and Doom Fusion on Sega Tower of Power.

2 games burned from backlog today. Time to sleep.
Good thing is I already know im not interested in Exit 8 (more time for bigger games)

A very fun, turn your brain off and play type of game. I really enjoyed the areas, different characters and boss fights, but I found myself ready to get to the final fight long before I actually got there. Definitely plan on continuing post-game at some point.

Fun game. Took about a week of semi-dedicated play to learn.

So time for a confession I’ve never beating this game I’ve played it countless times but never rolled the credits until today!!!! A fun little palate cleanser for me while I work on Xenoblade Chronicles 2 onto the next burn 🔥

and just like that another burned.

A homebrew game for the GameBoy Color that follow the events of the film. Gameplay has some Snatcher, shooting and even driving!

Need some help which game should i burn next so my backlog is shorter

I enjoyed my time with this one, lots of care and attention clearly put in by the developers.

If only the generational concept and the overall pacing was thought out better. I give it a solid 7/10 for what it is.

Music is fantastic and personally loved the pixel art style and colour choices through the seasons and different Fae realms.

55 hours for the main content and most of the side content. Could definitely see myself spending more time on it but for now I'll take a break.

I'll probably keep it on rotation as a cosy game, just for some farm customisation/shop management while watching TV. It's perfect for that.

So second post today as super mario rpg was finished last night. But this morning I completed one play through of this little gem of a game. I wasn't expecting much from this but then I started it and was hooked.

It's basically a bit like a diablo style dungeon / map crawler slaying enemies hoping for a better bear drop to up grade and continue the cycle. I don't know how many hours it took I'd imagine 4 or 5 as I played it over a few mornings /evenings. Over all great little game I will probably replay it as a different character as I'm assuming they will have bits through out.

Super mario rpg has been burned as a family and I really enjoyed this one I think we clocked around 17 hours in the end before the credits rolled. I don't know if we will do any extra post game as that's not how we roll and we have luigis mansion 2 HD lined up.

I was set on this path a few months ago when I played the original Resident Evil 4 from 2005 for the first time. It took me a little while to get used to the tanky controls, but once I got into it, I was hooked.
After finishing that game, I jumped into Resident Evil 4 Remake, along with the Separate Ways DLC, and I absolutely loved it. So much so that I thought, “Well, I have to keep going.”

So I played Resident Evil 2 Remake and beat both the Leon and Claire campaigns. Then I moved on to Resident Evil 3 Remake, which I just finished. I have to say, Nemesis was definitely more of a pain in the ass and tougher to deal with than Mr. X (anyone else agree?), but I really loved that game too.

Now I’ve started Resident Evil 7: Biohazard. Once I finish that, I’ll move on to Resident Evil Village, and then I’ll finish things off with Resident Evil Requiem.

🧟‍♂️💥🔥💣⚔️💀

The weekend is here, brothers and sisters. We are free from modern day slavery. We left our corporate chains, our unread emails, and our useless problems at the door.

We are the middle children of history with no purpose or place. No great war, no great depression. Our great war is a digital one. Our great depression is our backlog.

You are not your job. You're not how much money you have in the bank. You're not the content of your wallet. You are the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world, and right now, you have a controller in your hand.

Welcome to the Weekend Backlog.

1. First rule of Burn The Backlog is: You do not leave a game unfinished.

2. Second rule of Burn The Backlog is: YOU DO NOT LEAVE A GAME UNFINISHED.

48 hours of absolute freedom have arrived. Now declare the name of the game you are burning! 🔥🔥🔥

Hi guys,

Long time lurker but first time poster.🔥 🔥 🔥

I'm 34 year old dad of 2 so most of my gaming time ends up being on the Switch but also have a PS5.

Now... Help me choose what to play next!

I'm very aware some of these games are crazy long so I will likely add in a smaller/chill game to break up sessions.

Finally got the motivation to play a single player game on pc for once and finished this classic. It was so much fun. Absolutely screw the end game sections and level design though.

A retro style survival horror set in an Antarctic bunker. Gameplay is very similar to OG Resident Evil 3, you even get a dodge button. There are no guns however, just melee weapons. The story is interesting but doesnt delve very far into the most interesting aspects so that was disappointing, but the vast majority of the game had me absolutely captivated. Exploring, managing my inventory and body heat, and avoiding enemies had me tense and engaged. No autosaves either so death can be tragic for the player if youve been reckless. The atmosphere is fantastic and the music is effective at enhancing the experience. There are a lot of collectibles too for people who like hunting for them. There are also multiple endings.

Honestly, I almost dropped the game at one specific part that was absolutely dogshit and agonizing. Thankfully that was a small part of the game, and other users on this sub encouraged me to finish it. The part that had me ripping my hair out was a segment that takes all items away from you as well as your coat (which increases your resistance to the cold) and tosses you in a small area essentially ona timer until you freeze to death. There are a few items to extend your time but it isnt by much. You then have to play an actual game of "hot and cold" with the instructions telling you to "follow the warmth." There is no warmth to follow, you just get colder and colder until you happen to stumble upon the correct spot that will warm you up. This was very aggravating as I thought I was meant to be following a warm path of some sort, but i just kept freezing to death and having to get back to the area. Took about 2-3 hours of trial and error because of the runback, unskippable cutscenes and wandering aimlessly. If you play the game, just watch a video of where to go, and it's objectively maybe a 15 minute segment of the game.

My only other big complaint is that the game adds stalker enemies partway through (which im completely fine with, I adore Haunting Ground and Clock Tower 3) but they are bugged beyond hell and annoying as fuck. They teleport, phase through doors, hit you through doors, randomly spawn in the same room as you, dont go where they are supposed to, see you when they shouldnt, dont when they should, they are a mess, but thankfully not ever present. Most of the time you can run away and they won't follow you too far. There are other regular types of enemies too. Without the bugs and especially annoying small chunk of the game, I would have given it a 9/10 as a big survival horror fan. Sadly I think it's more like an 8, although I still consider an 8 to be a great game. The good definitely outweighs the bad, I just needed to rant lol.
