@Th3solution@Thrillho Playing The Witcher 3 ruined DA:I for. I found the former so much more enjoyable to play. Too much busy work in DA:I for me and the side quests were poor in comparison.

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.
I just picked up Hellblade, Guacamelee 2, and the Yakuza Collection.
I still had the 25% voucher from the summer sale (which said it was for summer sale items only but worked on the whole bundle) so I got them all for the same price as the Yakuza Collection alone.
@KratosMD I really liked the game but it does have the odd feeling of being the middle part of an expected trilogy (I assume another game is coming???)
The only problem with playing it straight after DOOM is that you can’t go rushing in head first like that game but playing stealthily doesn’t work very well either.
I’d also encourage ignoring side missions until after finishing the main story as there are a lot of other things you can do but I spent so long messing about with those that the main storyline lost some of its momentum.
@KratosMD You certainly have to be gung ho in places but not quite as aggressive as DOOM!
And the side missions are revisiting areas and taking down "Uberkommandants". These unlock later in the game (not really a spoiler, spoilers) and you use the enigma codes you find to unlock their location.
I tried to complete all of them as soon as they were available and I spent so long doing them all that I forgot where I was in the main story. It's not too much of a problem to take them on like that but I wish I'd done them at the end instead.
Bought Ghost Recon Wildlands in the DOTW sale after playing the demo and enjoying it. Similarly after playing the demo on Switch I bought Dragon Quest XI for ps4. Got it for under 20 quid, considering the size of the game I thought that was a bit of a bargain.

Like I've also mentioned in my other comment, I purchased Observer and Ratchet & Clank yesterday. I've heard great things about the both of them, but they're both somewhat outside of my comfort zone in different ways. Hope I enjoy them once I get to them!
@Tjuz Ratchet and Clank is ace! I played it after some quite dark/serious games so this was like a breath of fresh air for me. Hope you enjoy playing it!

@Thrillho
I gotta get the Yakuza remaster collection myself im not sure if i wanna wait for the physical edition to add to my collection or bite the bullet and get it digitally right now im like 70 - 30 when it comes to my collection Physical Vs. Digital. With most of my collection being mostly digital at the moment.
@KALofKRYPTON Hi mate, back in July you posted here saying, "Let us know how Ninja Saviors is. I love Ninja Warriors on the Amiga and saw SLG advertising the new one on fb last week."
My physical copy from Strictly Limited Games has not been fulfilled yet, but Stephen kindly organised for me to review it as part of Push Square's Mini Reviews.
Anyway, I really enjoyed this PS4 scrolling beat-'em-up. It's a lovely looking 2D brawler, with a quality arcade soundtrack, and addictive gameplay that has intricate moves to learn. I remembered you asking about it, so apologies for my late reply, but here's a link to my The Ninja Saviors: Return of the Warriors review. Cheers.
I am passionate about retro gaming, from antiquated consoles to the continuation of classics. Obviously I love PSone, and PS2 retro games. I blast my ears to breakneck melodic punk, gruff vocals and nimble alternative guitar hooks.
So after trading in the disappoinment that Borderlands 3 was, I decided to get Greedfall with the credit.
Had my eye on Greedfall for awhile but decided to pass on it since it was so close to the release of Borderlands 3 (big mistake there). I will be checking it out later tonight.

@RogerRoger Thanks man, that means alot. I am pretty sure I will pick Borderlands 3 up again but it will probably be on Xbox One where I could at least play with my friends online right now though I am disappointed with it and I know I wouldn't enjoy it.
As for games my son and I can play, I have River City Girls ordered from LRG so we will have that to play when it arrives. We both loved River City Ransom on the NES and already have seen some let's plays on YouTube for the game so we don't think we will be disappointed with that one.
I played a bit of Greedfall last night and so far I am enjoying it. My biggest worries was how the controls were having played Bound by Flame and The Techomancer before. But it seems that the devs got the contols down for Greedfall. It also was priced a bit cheaper at $49.99 rather the $59.99 like most games which was nice. It definitely has that Bioware feel to it too which is great. It's worth so far at least a play through if you are curious about it.

@KratosMD Zestiria has quite a few issues that held it back for me. However, the dungeons are very well designed and one aspect of the battle system where the characters are "linked" with elemental spirits is quite interesting and adds an extra layer of strategy.
I'd highly recommend Tales of Graces f on the PS3. The battle system is so good!
