Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 276

Kinda hoping I can finish Final Fantasy 7 before CTR NF releases next week.

I'm about 15 hours in.

I’m playing Minecraft as many of my friends are revisiting it. My biggest problem with the game is that time disappears when I’m playing.

I'm playing zombi and metro redux.im chilling like a villain.word life.word to your mother.word is bond.word ☝ up son

I should treat myself to a new game since it’s my B Day, but there’s nothing I really want at the moment so I’ll hold of. So it will be Rise of the Tomb Raider and Fist of the North Star. While my 2 fighting games will be Street Fighter V, and Dead or Alive 6. Happy early Fathers Day to all the dads out there.

Seriously can't believe I've got wolfenstein 2 to finish. It's been great and I've probably got about 30mins left, so hopefully knock that out after work. I then hope to start farcry 5

Edit. Turns out about 9mins to finish

I'm just carrying on with Sims 4, Legend of Zelda Majora's Mask, and Hitman 2.

It's a JRPG weekend for me finishing off Persona 5, I've just beat the last palace, then onto a combination of Ni No Kuni 2 and Final Fantasy VII which I can't get out of my head since E3. Maybe a bit of PSVR trying demos of Moss and The Persistence too

I've been told that I'm near the end of Final Fantasy VI so hopefully I can power through the rest of it. My goal is to clear it before I resub to FFXIV next Saturday.

In a Switch mood so playing some Cuphead. I hope Sony does another portable.

Just starting days gone, still in the first safe house and haven’t found the first camp yet. So far so good, the story is interesting but I do wish the game is more smoother when riding on bike.

I've started Watch Dogs 2 again to see if it clicks with me this time. Just rescued Aiden Pearce from a cell.

Also a bit of FFXII and the usual Red Dead Online.

Just finished and got the Platinum for Days Gone today. Really enjoyed it, just going to clear out the remaining hordes and a few side missions that appeared. After that I'm going to go back and finish Shadow of the Tomb Raider which I started when it came out but stopped when RDR2 came out.

Finally getting around to God of war, and I think I'm in for a good time. 😁😁😁 Also might give Nioh another go, got as far as the giant catapillar boss (can't remember the name of it)

I bought metro exodus on sale so I'll be playing a bit of that, a bit of Hitman 2 and that might be it.
Maybe if my homies come home well okay PES2019 as usual

On Ps4 I'll be continuing my epic adventure with Assassins Creed Odyssey and for the Switch I'll be flipping back and forth between Octopath Traveller and OceanHorn.
In the evenings I'll be watching Jessica Jones season 3 on Netflix.

South park stick of truth on ps4 and Zelda BOTW on swich

Having a break from betraying my PS4 with my rediscovered 3DS now - haha I got sucked down the Xenoblade rabbit hole in a big way recently and it convinced me to finally save for Switch later in 2019 to play more of it! Just playing some Sly Cooper 2 on my Vita this afternoon and plan to start a fresh game of FFXII on my PS4 tomorrow evening in case I get the JRPG bends from surfacing from the deep too quickly. Seems FF replays are popular with the community right now after that big E3 announcement! 😀

What am I playing? NOT a Final Fantasy 7 Remake demo!! 😒

....Still in Dragonquest 11

Working through my FINAL FANTASY Remasters, 7 is done, 9 is done and 12 is done, now just 10 left

I thought I would play Shenmue this weekend.

Great job on the E3 coverage! Enjoy a well earned break!

Pushsquare staff all sleeping after E3 lol

I'm working still but later I'm playing some Fortnite, Apex, KNACK 2 BABY, maybe some Evil Within.
On the 3ds I bought Luigi Mansion 1 and 2 so I get prepared for the 3rd installment!
On the Switch I bought Splatoon 2 so I have some more multiplayer action!

Going to platnium FF7

I am playing Super Blood Hockey because of the great review on this site. I grew up obsessed with Blades of Steel, so I wanted to try it. It is SO fun!

@ApostateMage I've been wondering about Watch Dogs 2, I've watched several gameplay videos and it still doesn't look interesting but then again HZD gameplay videos didn't look interesting either and it's now one of favourites. How would you rank WD2, FC5 and ACOdyssey?

Still playing blood and wine, yeah thats a big expansion.

Just got some weird beard trim for Arthur with slicked back hair trying to be dishonourable in RDR2. The graphics is so rare and unique, should've won "most innovative graphics" if an award like that ever existed.

Plus trying to find paintings in legendary stealth game Dishonored 2. Then, the neverending AC Odyssey, if it released in 2015, it would've given Witcher 3 a run for its money, especially in combat.

Still trying to get back into Sekiro after my unplanned break from it. I'm still rubbish.

I've started Sonic Mania's 'Encore Mode' again. I've got a bit of unfinished business there.

And tomorrow after a day of being treated like royalty (court jester) it'll be Borderlands 2 with my better half after the kids have gone to bed.

@Gremio108 I’m afraid I’d be terrible at Sekiro

@TheArt I can only play WD2 for short bursts otherwise it starts getting tedious. Everybody complains about the characters but i don't think they're that bad. I actually kind of like Wrench a bit but don't tell anyone.
The last Far Cry game I played was FC3 which I never finished because again, it became a bit tedious.
AC Odyssey is superb, though. Kassandra is ace in it. I think because it was quite Witcheresque at times is why I loved it so much.

@Gremio108 Give it a go, you might surprise yourself! I was doing okay until I had two weeks off it, now I can't get back in the groove. It'll come though.

A lot of it is just remembering attack patterns, and how to respond to what the enemy throws at you. In a way, it's less complicated than Dark Souls, but because the combat is so fast-paced, you're having to make those decisions at high speed.

What’s going on guys, hope you all have a good weekend.

With the recent announcement of the closure of Naughty Dog’s online servers for their PS3 games, I have moved my priorities in gaming to wrapping up TLoU on PS3 and getting all of the online trophies. I’ve been working on it for about two weeks and happily I should finish up this weekend.

On PS4 I’m playing a little launch indie title called Don’t Starve. I’ve had it on my trophy list since 2013. It’s a roquelike scavenger survival game that’s really hard.

I'm playing Resident evil 2. Love it.

Splatoon 2 - Playing the SplatFest, Go Team Narwhal!

Killzone: Mercenary (Vita) - Still mostly playing multiplayer.

Microsoft Flight (Games For Windows) - Still on a Let's Play.

Mirror's Edge (Windows Phone) - Also on a Let's Play.

@Frigate @Gremio108 Ha ha, give the poor guy a break — Sekiro is driving him mad. From games have a way of doing that.

@Frigate @Th3solution I swear I'm losing it. My kids had their friends over today, which meant four kids running about the place. I think that's part of the reason I'm losing my sanity tonight. What with that and Sekiro it's no wonder I'm talking to myself

@Aslanmagic that reply was of course meant for you!

@Gremio108 quiet noob, no-one cares what you've got to say. cry some more

@Gremio108 @Gremio108 😂 Now, now, friends. Let’s not squabble in public. I think you both need some time apart.

Nier Automata

Been playing Dauntless.

Just a bit if days gone, enjoying it but i can only play for a few hours at a time. Just started up the dam and starting to like it more. Also replaying wolfenstein 2, great game, so I'm familiar with the gunplay for youngblood.

I’m playing Labyrinth of Refrain : Coven of Dusk. I’ve got 12 different puppets on my front line now.

@Gremio108 lol best reply ever. I think I’ll give it a go eventually

Fluffing about with some VR games, been alot of fun so far. Tetris Effect is just mind blowing in VR! I tried Until Dawn: Rush Of Blood & nearly died haha
Got Blood & Truth yet to try, & hopefully get to play a bit more Trover Saves The Universe.

Some Smash Ultimate and Breath of the Wild here and there.

Well I've been playing Dragon Age Inquisition, Jade Empire, Original Sin 2 and Drakensang, all on PC though. Then, as if that wasnt enough, I bought HZD on PS4 the other day. On one hand I'm am idiot for playing so many games at once, but on the other hand I'm glad I got HZD because it's amazing.

It's cool to see so many of you are playing FFVII. I've been tempted to replay to myself. You know, if you're playing it on PC, there's a fan patch for it that fixes the wonky translation, and has optional stuff like making all character models be the proportionate ones you see in battle (all NPCs, not just the main characters).

@wiiware my son bought me days gone for fathers day, ive only played about 15 minutes of it, but it seems pretty fun so far. How are u liking it?

Resi Evil 7 VR.

@ellsworth004 It's okay, not god of war or spiderman level but it's good.
