It's the weekend once again, and that means we throw the comm open to discussion of any and everything folks want to talk about! And of course that means you can talk about any games you're playing, too!

It's been a busy week, and I haven't felt focused enough to play any shmups, but did a little grinding in Xenoblade Chronicles X--after neglecting that game for like a month.

So, what's everyone up to?

I've had that one on my wishlist since it came out. Shmup players seem to like it.
