We'll be resisting temptation here at Push Square Towers, keeping an eye on our waistlines as the Mini Eggs flow freely elsewhere in the office. While we may be attempting to avoid indulging our sweet tooth, however, we will be bowing to our other main guilty pleasure β games. If you're not quite sure what to play this long weekend, check out our list of PlayStation 4 candidates. Otherwise, let us know what you'll be tackling in the comments section below.

Bloodborne's quite possibly the least Easter-y game available on the PlayStation 4, but I'm reasonably hooked right now. My mood does swing between outright frustration and utter ecstasy at times, but I'm forcing myself to quietly walk away every time that I kick the dust. As a result, I haven't destroyed a DualShock 4 β yet.

That's it! I'm declaring 2015 the year of the hunt. When I observed a few weeks ago that pretty much every game I was playing involved hunters or hunting, little did I know that the theme would still be in effect weeks later. Since there's no escaping it, this weekend's going to be spent stalking some pretty beastly prey in Bloodborne, while also hunting vaults in Borderlands: The Handsome Collection.

Since I finished hunting all of the things last week, I've decided to continue my Bloodborne adventures by trekking deep into the randomly generated Chalice Dungeons. It's been a grand old time so far: I've found the rarest of upgrade stones and a wonderfully big, threatening scythe. Hopefully I'll find Kojima's long lost editorial on the next floor.

Not really a whole lot lined up to play this weekend, but I'm going to try and get through a couple of games of R.B.I. Baseball '15, and then venture over to Steam, and finally dive into Fahrenheit: Indigo Prophecy, a game that I've wanted to play for years and just haven't.

After revelling in my victory over Vicar Amelia without the help of another Hunter recently, I might try to make my way through some of Old Yharnam next over the Easter weekend. I'll also be revisiting Bastion on the PS4 for an upcoming review, which is still one of my favourite indie games. Can't wait to see how it holds up after three years!
That's the end of our chit-chat, but the stage is now yours to tell us what you'll be playing this weekend. Smash your sticky fingers against your keyboard and spell out what'll be keeping you busy over Easter in the comments section below.

Finished Tomb Raider and no idea what to play untill MK comes out :/
I recently started playing Rouge Leader on my GameCube again, love that game
I'll also have my daily play with my friends on Dragon Ball XenoVerse (item farming) and might play DmC as well try to improve my scores
Bloodbourne, bloodbourne and for a slight bit of variety bloodbourne.
Continuing Borderlands Handsome Collection - wow is there a ton of content in that! Probably Battlefield Hardline as well. Looking forward to Tropico 5 at the end of the month!
Alex and I are having the same kind of weekend.
On xbox one me and 2 of my good friends have been making our way through borderlands the pre sequel together and I've gotta say it's pretty fun.
On ps4 I'm going to be finally finishing off bloodborne. I've been putting it off and every time I play I've just been wandering trying to find new secrets and stuff because it's such an amazing game I don't want the experience to end. But I actually plan on playing it again on ng+ because on this run I've done the entire thing in single player. I wanted to be able to say that I took out all the bosses by myself. So I think it'd be fun to jump back in and play some coop. I'm also looking forward to some chalice dungeons.
And finally on pc I'll be playing some more dark souls 2 scholar of the first sin in 4k I've been using a 40 inch 4k tv on my pc the last few months but I just ordered a new 28 inch 4k 1ms monitor with gsync that I am SUPER excited about.. so I don't plan on getting to far in many other games on pc til that comes in
I'm playing find enough loose change to fill up the little plastic easter eggs then find a place to hide them where they haven't been hidden every year before. Followed by let the parents cook big ham holiday dinner. Mixed in w/ some Final 4 basketball. Last night was 5 hour Passover seder.
Tuesday I start Last of Us.
Code Name STEAM on 3DS, Persona 4 Golden on Vita and Final Fantasy Type-0 on Xbox One.
Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate (3DS) until Mortal Kombat X (PS4) release.
Yoshi's New Island (3DS) and Run Sackboy! Run! (Vita).
I've been playing the online Battle Spot in Pokemon ORAS, in preparation for regionals. It's not going well so far π
Bloodborne.
I finally killed the Cleric Beast and now my sights are on Father Gascoigne. He is becoming annoying by killing me but I will get there.
Walking Dead Season Two on my Vita when I am watching football tomorrow.
The bug to drive wouldn't leave me so while in town I just picked up drive club. Wanted to try Ps plusversion first to check it was my kind of game.but didn't have the waiting skills
It's a Wii U weekend for me. Tekken Tag Tournament 2 and AVGN: The Video Game.
@gbanas92: How are you liking RBI Baseball 15?
I wish I had Bloodborne but I still need to complete...........
Darks souls 2on ps3

And finallly gta v and dragons age inq
I'm drowning here in good games and as a parent have limited time to play the longer games throughout the week.
But I'm still tempted by bloodborne hmmmm π
I'm playing inFamous 2 this weekend. I'll also fit in the weekly heroic strike on Destiny though, and I might play a random undermined game as well.
I will be playing with my phone in work jealous of all you but I'm off Monday woop hooo.
I'm done with Destiny this weekend, I'm in the mood for something laid back I can explore, I don't really have anything that fits so maybe I'll play my rental copy of saints row on PS4
Still on Peace Walker HD, need to access MGS 2&3 though.
@themcnoisy my apologies for not replying to you earlier in the week, I think u invited me to a couple of games of d3 but whilst the computer was on in the background I was probably running after/ trying to entertain my 2 kids π I didn't want you to think I was being ignorant π
@Tasuki Not very much haha. It's not too great. As far as the smaller price baseball games go, Super Mega Baseball was much better.
@marston1983 I did think you were ignorant and I couldn't believe it.... Lol. Of course not its only a bit of fun I have 3 kids and one on the way so I know how all encompassing they are. I'm just lucky that the are asleep by 9. If you see me on invite me
@themcnoisy cheers π maybe some time this week I can find the time to help out with a run or two
Bloodborne, bloodborne and bloodborne again... And if my frustration peaks, i ll slain people on some Warrior or Bladestorm
This weekend nights Will be all about borderland
.... when the kids and the mother is a sleep.....
Resogun on PSVita. That has to be one of the Vita's best games.
CounterSpy has me hooked right now. So glad that was a PS+ game--I had absolutely no interest in it when it first came out, but since I got it through PS+, I love it! Great on PS4 when my daughter lets me control the tv, but very good on Vita when she's busy watching TDM & Stampy Minecraft videos on PS4's YouTube app.
Nothing, because my damn sister and brother-in-law are visiting.
Borderlands pre-sequal and evolve for me
Bloodborne, I played a little bit of Smash Bros on Wii U, and maybe Majoras Mask 3D and Pokemon Omega Ruby later. I need to put in some time on Borderlands Collection at some point, and play a bit in the Planetside 2 beta since I got my code yesterday. Only problem is that its still downloading...
@gbanas92 That's a shame I am looking for an arcade baseball game, something that won't require me to sink alot of time into it like MLB: The Show.
@Tasuki Super Mega Baseball! It came out a couple months back and it's art style isn't the greatest but it's a fun arcadey baseball game.
I'll admit that I've fallen back into the depths of Final Fantasy XIV.
Assassin's Creed Unity, DMC Definitive Edition, Valiant Hearts, and Run Sackboy Run.
@DRL Great minds think alike π
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi Fez!!!
@marston1983 just a wild guess but did you happen to buy ni no kuni, the stick of truth and devil may cry trilogy in the easter sale? (Because in that case you weren't the only one.)
I'm revisiting pandora and also pay my first visit to elpis in borderlands the handsome collection this weekend, I'm also going to play a bit of the planetside 2 beta and monday when I'm at my own home again I'm going to play prototype 2, ni no kuni, mass effect, alice madness returns and south park the stick of truth on my newly bought ps3 (probably 1 hour of each game to decide wich one I'm going to complete first.)
Final Fantasy X Remaster and if I manage to pull myself away from that for long enough Dragon Age Inquisition or Diablo 3.
I tried to play some Dark Souls on my computer but it was having a stroke, so i definitely need to build a new computer some time.
I played Counter Strike: Global Offensive a couple of times on PC, i need more practice i suck with a mouse on FPS games. And last night i played some Battlefield 4 on PS4. Will be playing some Drive Club some time later tonight.
Haven't had time to play lately. Hopefully I'll sneak in some GT6 or BF4.
Destiny of Spirits on Vita
WWE 2K14 on PS3
Madden 15 on PlayStation 4
Codename S.T.E.A.M. (3DS) - Just about done with this one. Not one of my favorite 3DS games, but it was decent.
Box Boy (3DS) - Fun little eShop game. It has a decent amount of content for such a cheap game.
Super Mario 3D World (Wii U) - This game is incredible.
Won't get around to anything else this weekend, but I plan on starting Ni no Kuni (PS3) and Fire Emblem (Wii U virtual console) once i'm done with those other games.
@marston1983
Ha, I hear you. My backlog/ currently playing:
Earthbound (SNES)
Golden Sun (GBA)
Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney (GBA)
Baldurs Gate (PC)
Uncharted: Drakes Fortune (PS3)
Mass Effect 2 (PS3)
Dragon Age: Origins (PS3)
Mmm, that picture...
@Fandabidozi That sounds great! Gaming across multiple different systems. I wish I could afford games like that.
Fez and Freedom wars on Vita, with a bit of Farcry 4 while waiting on the 8+ GB update to download for Shadow of Mordor.
@Fandabidozi ha, it wouldn't be so bad if those games were around 10 hours each to complete but they are not.
I cant believe in saying this but as a (so called responsible parent) I wish there were more quick pick up an play games and complete in under 10 hours.
However if I went back 15 years ago id be moaning that games just arnt long enough.
I cant win π
@Fandabidozi That us possibly the best backlog of all time. Earthbound and mass effect 2. Wowzers. Anyway my weekend just became better. Final Fantasy type-0 hd is getting played tonight.
@themcnoisy Make sure you play Episode Duscae because that's the closest you're ever going to get to playing FFXV before it releases for quite some time now. Haha.
@marston1983. Ni No kuni! Play it! Asap its awesome
Bloodborn..
@Sanquine I know I'm about the 4th boss in when you have to go up the volcano/ firelands. My problem is I start a game and another great game is released either in the shops or on psn and I fail to get back into it, getting my ps4 didn't help either π
PS4: Diablo 3 (main game right now)
PS Vita: Killzone Mercenary, Danganronpa
3DS: Mario Kart 7
Wii U: Smash Bros
