Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 624

It will be the AMAZING RE9 and completing my 2nd play through mostly all weekend. Great game but I really do agree with Push squares review, only read it yesterday. Great combination of 4 and 7. Grace is annoying though in the cutscenes, constantly got her head down when talking with people and stuttering 😂

Will also be grinding the excellent Medieval life simulator that is KCD for combat levels (hated it at the beginning but it’s slowly clicking with me) and the many other skills needed.

Football with a couple beers as standard 😉

Have a great gaming weekend Pushsquarians! 🍻

Marathon,marathon and a bit more marathon..have a great weekend folks 👍

About to finish the final boss in Romeo is a Dead Man and I want to platinum it I think. I’m also slowly working my way through RE Requiem and I must say, this will be a top 3 game for me this year. Otherwise Art of Rally as I work on the platinum, and I will add Minishoot Adventures in there as I’ve waited a long time for it to come to console. Really I’m counting down to Crimson Desert. Enjoy the weekend all!

Infamous Second Son replay

Pokémon Legends Z-A: The most fun I've had with a Pokémon game since Arceus. The Wild Zones represent a great concept that needs to be expanded upon as you get some pretty thrilling encounters. It's awesome seeing Kalos get some love (considering it never had a third release) and there's a great selection of Pokémon to catch, encouraging me for the first time to follow the series' call to "catch 'em all".

On PS5 i will be playing Monster Hunter Stories 3, Fatal Frame 2 and Marathon

On Switch 2 it's more Pokopia and Mario Galaxy 2

On Steam Deck I will be continuing with Bullet Girls Phantasia

On the Pro Fatal Frame 2 remake and Resident Evil Requiem. On the Ps3 Siren Blood Curse

I am trying to get the platinum in Death Stranding 2 by maximizing all preppers. Still having a lot fun with the game!

Resident evil 4 remake and a little bit of cyberpunk that i just started but I'm finding the game quite dull tbh

The Sword of Ianna, maybe something new on Evercade.
And maybe Sea of Thieves.

Got back on Hellpoint last night after spending the last couple of weeks getting back on schedule with Mafia 2 and finally finishing off the Resident Evil: Revelations plat… and enjoyed my evening with it.

Gonna try and get as much of that done before starting Devil May Cry 2 next week. If I can finish off the plats on both by the start of April, I’ll be getting back on track after taking a month or so off.

Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown. Racing is okay in this game. Graphics, music and the characters are pretty meh.

Started Dead Cells but got not really into it. Dont know if I'll continue.

Hollow Knight. Started this after Dead Cells and I like this one a lot better. I am at the triple queen boss or whatever its called.

Its also carnival in my hometown so tomorrow I'll have a look and a couple of beers.

Have a great weekend!

I'm still playing Resident Evil Requiem, after about 30 hours and getting the platinum trophy I'm still absolutely loving it. I did the insanity run without the bonus weapons/unlimited ammo, so now I'm gonna have a bit of fun with the unlockable weapons and running the on disc version so I still have RT in the main Raccoon City section.

After that I fancy playing the original RE2 again

Silent Hill: Book of Memories. The SH2 remake has pulled me back into the series and I’m going through BoM for the first time - I’m quite enjoying it too!

After finishing the AW2 dlcs, I am now on to Gravity Rush.
Enjoy the weekend all

I’m spoilt for choice at the moment. This weekend I will be aiming to finish my first Nioh 3 playthrough, completing some contracts on marathon, bend over backwards to make Pokemon comfortable in Pokopia, breed some mutant cats in Mewgenics and get my second completion on Slay the Spire 2. Have a great weekend everyone!

Mostly Avowed for me this weekend if it'll stop crashing starting to do my head in now. I've also went back to AC Origins to get the rest of the trophies for the platinum and started a new playthrough of Saints Row the third.

Greetings fellow video game enthusiasts. I went for a walk this morning, which means I can game guilt-free all day. On the menu today is Mario Kart World and Final Fantasy XVI. Happy gaming time everyone.

@TimeDelayedGamer Happy birthday and weekend to you my man!

I started playing Planet of Lana 2 the other day and will be finishing that up today. I played the original last year and the sequel is great fun, with more inventive puzzles and a better sense of atmosphere.

Then, I may or may not be turning the big 5-0 in the very near future (yikes) and to celebrate I will be starting Alan Wake 2 on my new PS5 and Trails in the Sky the 3rd on Steam Deck. I've taken a much needed couple of weeks off work to rest up a bit and the anticipation of getting stuck into those two games is palpable. Remedy and Falcom are two of my all-time favourite developers and I'm honestly not sure which game I'm more excited about playing.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Out enjoying the weather today but tomorrow morning I'll be sitting down for a proper Nioh 3 session. Hardly had time to touch it this week, so looking forward to that

Just bought Marathon. Was listening to Summon Sign podcast and sold me on it

MH Wilds, World/Iceborne, Rise/Sunbreak, just wonderful how you can play MH for 1000hrs and not even craft half of what the games have to offer. Then KCD2 - still savouring Henry's adventures. Plus the game that won't ever get old - Elden Ring, there's still that element of discovery because you can't remember where you picked what even after several playthroughs.

I will continued playing one of the best video games ever made in the excellent resident evil village gold edition. I will also continued playing fan favorite the amazing doom eternal deluxe edition. I will also be continued playing the instant classic the incredible ace combat 7 skies unknown. And I will be playing the underrated wonderful shadow warrior 3.and I will be watching my michigan wolverines 💛💙 and boston celtics 💚🖤 play.i will be watching legendary TV 📺 sitcoms comedy in family matters.good times.the Jeffersons.sanford and son.different strokes.martin.the wayans brothers. And saved by the bell.word up son

Yesterday I finished Trails of Cold Steel.
Sadly I was spoiled on one of the reveals in the last chapter, but still the end was really good. And man what a cliffhanger....

So I booted up Trails of Cold Steel II. And the story picks up immediately after the end of the previous title... and I'm really interested in seeing how this next game unfolds. 😌

Have a great weekend everyone!

I'm basically waiting to see if Crimson Desert is a day 1 for me so I'm not starting any new and big right now. I watched The Digital Foundry video on the ps5 pro and the game looks ridiculously fantastic, its almost hard to believe. But looks arent everything so I'll wait for some reviews but I'll probably dive right in nect week 🙂

As for what I've been playing then

Thief VR - I've finished the missions (and story), and really liked playing them. Its a pretty short game, but priced lower, and its built around replayability of the missions so you can get all challenges and such if you like. There is a story but that lost me pretty early and as I wrote last week, I would have loved for them to make it more like a traditional single player Thief game with but then its not an AAA game in that sense. Still, its fun and plays and looks good where it really matters, the missions!

Star Wars Outlaws DLC - I found the DLC was on a sale, so I picked it up and jumped in, starting with Wild Card which I finished last night. I loved this game when it released, imo its a bit overlooked, and it feels great to jump back in. I did a new game to get to play the opening of the game again, which I really enjoy and the gameplay improvements for the stealth sections really makes a difference, and then started the DLC. The first one was pretty good, looking forward to the A Pirates Fortune DLC which I’m starting today! Still love this game 🙂

Enjoying the loot event in Borderlands 4 although the constant trips to the bank are no fun but worth it to get full vault of legendaries!
Would love to find time for a bit of Yotei too and make it a weekend of legends

Happy gaming folks

My switch 2 arrived yesterday, so I’m spending my time with Pokopia and Dave the diver on PS5. I’ve got a mad week in work coming up, so I’m trying to de-stress ahead of it.

I’m playing the “I have to work this weekend” game. :’) But I’ll probably have my partner play Pokopia tonight while I watch since I bought it for us to play and we played all of 5 mins so far. As for what I want to play, I don’t know. I finished RE9 a few days ago, incredible game and it looked unbelievable on my Pro. I might continue one of the 15 games I’ve started in the last 2 years. Maybe A Space for the Unbound? I really liked what I played of it but to get the true ending, you have to do the worst mini games imaginable and that’s why I put it on hold. Also, I made a howlongtobeat account recently and it hurts seeing my backlog. I don’t think I’ll finish all the games I have before I leave this earth in 40+ years.

Replaying Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden for the second time, but on Playstation 5 this time. I might try to sneak in some Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart if I find more time. Hope everyone is doing well this weekend!

Tonight we’re putting Abiotic Factor on hold to play some Toxic Commando multiplayer, which looks like it’ll be a fun time. I usually also have a single player and co-op game on the go but I’m holding out until the 19th to play Crimson Desert and Dragonkin: The Banished so don’t want to start anything too big.

Pacific Drive: one more run... Few hours later: just one more run. Have a great weekend!

Marathon with my friends and Lost Eidolons on my own.

@JamieO Always good to share a retro recommendation, cheers!

This weekend I'm working today, but hopefully have some time to play the C64 versions of International Karate and Last Ninja 1/2 on the new System 3 collection (on Switch). I have a lot of nostalgia for those games.

On PS5 still enjoying Tokyo Xtreme Racer which is great, and started playing Dragon's Dogma 2, which I really like so far, only about 10 hours into the game.

Avowed. Trying to finish the game before Crimson Desert, but I would like to play the first Pillars of Erernity as well. Plus, Monster Hunter Stories 3. It’s a packed season for good games, I don’t know which will be next. I’m really enjoying Avowed right now.

I almost forgot, Diablo IV next expansion is soon and Pragmata as well. So little time for gaming…

Haven’t touched Marathon beyond the first area, I’m too afraid to be killed incessantly without a moment of peace.
