WRUP: The Cryptarch or Tom Nook?

Who is a shadier practitioner of business: Destiny's The Cryptarch or Animal Crossing's Tom Nook?

What's everyone playing?


  • Alexander Sliwinski (@Sliwinski, Twitch): Destiny through the Vault of Glass. Halfway done already. Also, some secret games.

  • Anthony John Agnello (@AJohnAgnello): I too shall be playing EWWWWWWWWWW like Susan is, as well as a game about witches wearing the most fabulous hair suits around. Then maybe a little Clock Tower 3. Danny sold me.

  • Danny Cowan (@db_cowan, Twitch): It was a good week on PSN, so I'll probably be playing Strider 2, Vib-Ribbon, and Pix the Cat. Maybe I'll finally play through Wonder Boy 3: The Dragon's Trap, too. Miss ya already, Westone.

  • Earnest Cavalli (@Ecavalli, Twitch): Apparently I was very well behaved in a previous life as I'll be spending this weekend playing the Bayonetta duology on Wii U for our imminent review. And I want to spend at least one evening really digging into Alien: Isolation. That game just doesn't work as well if you're playing it at 3PM on a Sunday afternoon.

  • Jess Conditt (@JessConditt, Twitch): Shadow of Mordor and, if I'm not home alone, Alien: Isolation.

  • Ludwig Kietzmann (@LudwigK, Twitch): [...]

  • Mike Suszek (@MikeSuszek, Twitch): The Pokemon TCG for iPad has me now. I may escape with A Golden Wake or NBA 2K15, but digital Pokemon cards are a huge part of my life now.

  • Richard Mitchell (@TheRichardM, Twitch): Games I'd like to play but probably won't have time for: Murasaki Baby, Neverending Nightmares, Destiny, Mordor, Smash Bros. Maybe, maybe, *maybe* I can squeeze in a few minutes of Alien: Isolation. I doubt this.

  • Sinan Kubba (@SinanKubba, Twitch): The Vanishing of Soul Suspect. But the real mystery is which one I'll enjoy more.

  • Sam Prell (@SamPrell, Twitch): I really want to take time to not even play, just SHOW my dad Alien: Isolation. The Alien saga is one of his favorites, and I think he would really appreciate it.

  • Susan Arendt (@SusanArendt, Twitch): Don't think I'm allowed to say, lest I break embargo, but it's initials are EW and it will probably make me go "ewwwwwww" in spots. Also NOPE.

  • Thomas Schulenberg (@T_Schulenberg, Twitch): The core of Smash is everything I wanted so far, so definitely more of that. And when my spine needs a break from the Handheld Hunch, I'll turn to Final Fantasy 9.

  • Xav de Matos (@Xav, Twitch): To confuse my manly bravado I'm going to play Shadow of Mordor and then Alien: Isolation. Expect tears of rage and terror! Off the grid, I'm playing the Cold War epic board game Twilight Struggle.
