Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 328

Still munching on Killzone Shadow Fall's multiplayer. Hopefully by the time my TLOU2 copy arrives I will finish some of the challenges I need to get the 400 challenges trophy and the Assault ability trophy. Doubt I'll reach the 1 million points this weekend tho, lol.

I decided to take a little break from MHW:I and started a new grind in.... Final Fantasy XIV

The Last of Us Part II is what I’m most eager to play. Until then, some GTA Online. Tsushima arriving in July, Cyberpunk in September and then roll on the Holiday season and PS5

Well the past two weeks of the WAYPTW articles I started my first ever journey of The Last Of Us.

I ended up beating it last sunday.

It was pretty good & holds up fairly well indeed with a pretty tight and well written script. I did have a few gripes but they were mostly minor.

I won't be playing TLoU 2 around launch... but hopefully it'll be sooner rather then later as I'm interested in seeing where it's going.

Seeing Oddworld: Soulstorm in the PS5 reveal event really excited me however so this weekend I'm gonna be replaying my digital copy of the PS1 title Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee on PS3 with the intent on following it up with Oddworld: Abe's Exoddus (that I never got round to beating)

Have a great weekend everyone!

Death Stranding. Episode 3 at present, really enjoying it.

Have also started TLoU Left Behind DLC, get me back in the spirit for the next chapter in Ellie and Joel's story.

On the cusp of a new generation of console I've actually gone back a generation to play the fantastic Kingdoms Of Amalur: Reckoning and the even more fantastic Mass Effect 2 on PS3.

On PS4, I've dipped back into Elite Dangerous for some space faring shenanigans.

Mopping up some final trophies in Control. What a game this is, tough but still my GOAY 2019
Gears 5 on Xbone, wonderful game with a perfectly paced campaign
Also Everybody's Golf on PS4 which I got in the latest sale. Addictive as crack ! (Not that I'd know )
Have a good one y'all 😎

Been playing two remasters on PS4 lately, Uncharted and Tomb Raider. Enjoying both but the Lara Croft outing has really surprised me as to how much I'm enjoying it.

Replaying Vampyr, looking to pick up last trophies for platinum, been playing some Resogun, and have just bought Dragon Age Inquisition goty edition while it is on offer, will be looking to play the DLC.

Playing through Days Gone and loving it.

The last of Us Remastered. Speed run.

Still working on my HZD ultra hard play through, despite occasional hiccups I’m progressing well. Beginning to wonder if I will get my replay of TLOU done before Friday but I will give it a try.

Blasphamous.ruiner.moonlighter.and little nightmares complete edition.im on a indie triumph Rampage.all 4 games are excellent.word is bond.word life.word to your mother.word ☝ up son

Ratchet and Clank a cracking time and Ar nosurge: Ode to an Unborn Star. Both of which I’m streaming through PlayStation now as they are PS3 games I missed the first time around.

After the reveal i downloaded Ratchet and Clank from the backlog. What a game!

I've invested in a PSVR, and still absolutely blown away by it. I started playing Resident Evil 7 on it yesterday, which is not only my first resident evil game, but my first horror video game, and I'm experiencing it all in VR! It's an absolutely terrifying experience so far, but really incredible, I can't wait to play more!

@1_W1NG3D_4NG3L it's not a bad plat, the 100% maps is the worst trophy since some places you need to jump on a rand branch etc for full synchronization, but I think I did mine in like 27 hours. For me I work this weekend so if I get any time I'd like to try to work on Duelest challenges in Yu-Gi-Oh Link Evolution for the plat or continue my clean up of Lego DC Villains for that plat as both are getting close.

Played around with Kingdom come deliverance and got annoyed at the horse so much I gave up and returned to fallout 4 for the 100th time. I will get that Platinum trophy. 😂😂😂😂🙏🙏

I've done a couple of playthroughs of the good if slightly disappointing Resident Evil 3 and now I'm onto Doom Eternal, which both looks fantastic is is fast and silky smooth to play. Not sure what to make of the constant juggling of resources yet but it forces you to play even more aggressively than 2016 and I've had a hell of a time so far

@BranJ0 that's one way to really jump in the deep end, good luck 😉

Waiting for the ps5 to exist...
So meanwhile going to got hand-held and play
-The legend of heroes trails of sky ( gonna try this franchise of 9 games, hope it's as good as people say)

• the nonary games in Ps Vita.

Enjoying the so far, i started 2 days ago

I also got the Subnautica platinum the other day - great game. Not sure what to play next but I might start Resident Evil Remake this weekend if I get chance

Wrapping up Doom Eternal and playing TWEWY:FR and Layton Curious Village in my down time.

After having seen the GT7 reveal, I suddenly felt the urge tot dive back into GT Sport!

I’m actually going back to Shadow of the Tomb Raider to try out the DLC that I bought awhile back. Probably throw in some Samurai Shodown on PS4 as well. Also playing the Turbo Grafx 16 Mini.

@carlos82 haha thanks, I'm doing alright so far, but I have a feeling it's gonna get a lot worse!

Well after getting through Bloodborne chalice dungeons I am battering through the lovely new Chinese Room game on Apple Arcade. If I get time some more Mirror’s Edge Catalyst as I wait for TLOU2 to arrive!

@gamiller1978 Dragon Age Inquisition is a superb game, one of the very best RPGs. The DLC is pretty good too

@Nah900 Right leg right leg!!

Bought PES 2020 because FIFA isn't cutting it for me anymore. I've been wanting to buy it since December and that new UEFA EURO 2020 update just pushed me to. PES' graphics have steadily improved in all it's iterations this gen, FIFA on the other hand is still the same boring soft-look with oversized boots. Anytime I play FIFA 20, I just keep telling myself this'll look better in PES, so I had to do it and having a load of fun. I skipped FIFA18 and had crazy fun with PES2018 instead, skipped all of them in '19 and returned to FIFA with '20, but in comparison to PES2020, I think I'll just get used to option files moving forward and won't bother with FIFA anymore if things don't change. EA are just resting on their laurels because of licences. I wish gamers could sign some petition or gofundme to get Konami the licences or better yet they both have all the licences equally.

Then it's RDRII as usual, MHWorld, GTAV, Skyrim.

Mafia 2 dlc on PS3.
Red Dead Online
Far Cry Classic on PS3

Just signed up for PsNow the other day and first came for me is Control, enjoying it so far so that's me sorted for the weekend!

RDR2, finishing 5th chapter. Hope to get done with it before TLOU2 will be unlocked (already pre-loaded).
The game is done for me from the mechanics prespective (hunt and fishing were incredibly satisfying) and now I'm going full speed through the plot.

@Nah900 I beat her from the 3rd try, actually.

Or no, Vicar Amelia was beaten from the 1st try.
3rd try did it for the lady in the clock tower dlc

I'm going to replay Jak and Daxter. I feel like playing a Naughty Dog game this week. No particular reason.

Red Dead Redemption, I'm quite enjoying it so far. And also some Witcher 3, I'm possibly fairly close to the end of the Blood and Wine expansion now.

I'm also going to get my Vita out and start playing some Sly 2, heard that's supposed to be good.

And also playing some more Etrian Odyssey 3. I've been chipping away at it for a long time now, but I've finally reached the final floor of the labyrinth. I'm nearly at the end, but there's bound to be some kind of insanely tough superboss ready to put a stop to my progress.

Maneater, Beyond Blue, Res 2 & 3 Remakes

@KingPev It's one of my favourite games, got the platinum a few years ago, surprised it aloud me to buy goty edition, with me already owning the base game, dlc was alot cheaper that way.

I'm super busy with work this whole weekend, so my gaming time will either be limited or non-existent.

But if I do happen to garner some free time, I'll continue my adventure in Yakuza Kiwami 2.

@RazielReaper how is the player base for that game? I've always wanted to play a Killzone game's multiplayer

@Nah900 I believe that she is weak to fire, this should help with landing significantly more damage with each hit.

Got sleeping dogs platinum now just finishing off MW2 remaster Platinum. Wish I had the patience and skill to get the multiplayer trophies for the last of us remaster platinum 😢

I'm hooked on Destiny 2 right now, so will be playing some of that. May also start the Spider-Man DLC I just bought on sale. Have a great weekend everyone!

@Jslade Pretty alright overall. It's obviously p small nowadays, but it's not hard to find deathmatches, usually there are about 2-4 active ones at any given time.

I finally got the Tokyo Xanadu eX+ plat and I've started Ys Origin, very enjoyable so far. I'll probably play some Saints Row 3 remastered too and maybe some Concrete Genie.

Hopefully finish concrete genie this weekend and maybe start the gta4 dlc after beating the main game. That game gets a hard time from some gta fans but I loved it, end made me sad!! Maybe its because in real life I don't have a cousin that wants to go bowling

I'm replaying TLoU before the sequel hits. Also, I got so hooked on CoD WW2 multiplayer that I bought Modern Warfare (2019)! I know CoD games get a lot of flack for being mindless shooting fun but I love them! Didn't realize how much I was missing. Thank you PS Plus!

Like many replaying TLoU but on Grounded, just outside the school now. Have a good one everybody!

Given up on Lego DC Villains because according to the game im missing 5 characters despite having a full rota and missing 20 gold Bricks despite no flashing indicators at all and my maps saying I have 100 per cent Gold Bricks!
Ok so I just started Death Stranding (which I received for Christmas!) and despite the fact I have absolutely no idea what's going on...I think I like it..
I also finished Murdered Soul Suspect a few days ago which is an amazing game for about £3
Will continue with No No Kuni 2 and Animal Crossing.

@playstation1995 I bought Little Nightmares in a sale recently and that was only because I saw a trailer for the sequel which looks really good!Didant really know what to expect from the game,playing it on and off but loving the creepy atmosphere!

@Wazeddie22. Its a amazing game.and the graphics is amazing.its like little big planet horror game .haha.little nightmares is excellent.word up son

Two Point Hospital & Doomsday Heist on GTA Online. Wait i said that last weekend lol.

@RazielReaper awesome thank you. I'll give it a download on PS Now today!

Pretty much all I've played for weeks now has been ESO - nothing to do with recent new expansion either, as it's just such a huge game with so many different playstyles to master that I probably won't even pick up Greymoor till autumn anyway! Doubt I'll be playing anything else - including on my still cherished 3DS - until Ghost of Tsushima releases...except maybe the odd Two Point Hospital session.

Borderlands: Game of the Year Edition (Switch) - Resuming after my brother had borrowed my Switch.

Star Wars Battlefront II (PSP) - Been hankering to play this again, so I've been playing tons of Instant Action on all kinds of different locations.

Fallout 3 (Games For Windows) - Almost halfway now I feel , still having a blast.

Monster Burner (Windows Phone) - Nearing the end thank goodness.

Painting my WH Tyranid at work... Another weekend, same result...

MLB The Show 20. Got it a couple weeks ago as a birthday gift and it's been my most played game since. Really like the 'March to October' mode.

@Neolit If nothing else, it'll certainly be a memorable first playthrough!

A plague tale. Gotta get that platinum before my eBay auction ends on Monday. Then the last of us 1. Wanna remind myself of it all again before the sequel, possibly before Friday 😁

And some guitar hero aerosmith on the wife's 360 to help finish off her games.

Like many playing through The Last of Us Remastered before Part 2 releases. Unlike many this is my first experience of the game, can already see why it's held in high regard! Also a few races on F1 2019 since 2020 is due in a few weeks, excellent racing sim

Also playing TLOU Remastered for the first time. Still quite early, but I really love how chaotic and brutal the combat is. Depending on how I feel by the end (I've heard a few story points over the years, but obviously the whole thing in person is different), I might preorder the second part.

I've gotten through a lot of games during this lockdown but at the moment I'm playing dragon quest 11 on the switch and playing xenogears for the first time ever! Brilliant game so far.

Diablo 3 on PS3. Just finished the main story and started the hardcore mode with a new character. I was thinking on getting the platinum trophy but I guess it'll be the same story with Mass Effect: too lazy to finish a long game multiple times.

Astro Bot: Rescue Mission on PSVR. I hope Last Of Us PT II doesn't look all flat when I play it on friday...
I really hope they release PSVR 2.0 next summer so I can play even more games in stunning VR on the PS5 !

Far Cry 4, hunting Yaks with charging Elephants.

Finally finishing Red Dead Redemption 2 for me and a bit of Warzone!

Just wrapped up replaying through The Last of Us in anticipation of part II.

Tried to pick something small to playthrough that I'll be able to finish by this Friday and I'm currently playing through Astro Bot Rescue Mission. Really loving it so far!

Playing a fair bit of Warzone, venturing back into TLoU and Horizon Zero Dawn. A bit of nostalgia and a bit of modern. It's a nice mixed bag.

I started RDR2 but got bored very quickly and now Im playing Project Warlock and Demon Tier.

@1_W1NG3D_4NG3L easiest way is to look at X area and see what isn't 100% then Google by section and there is usually a video for what place you're missing, it's typically a place that had a force echo
