@JohnnyShoulder the most annoying franchise... in the world. Social Ball Kicking Simulator 26. The year of our lord 2025 edition still has the same exact bugs that it had on day one, but now with even more sprinkled in and it just isn't worth the hassle. I have no faith they will ever fix anything. So they can't have my money... Until I cave to peer pressure and most likely get it anyway 😭
I got a warning over the weekend from PlayStation for my code of conduct! I just sent a link to a mate for a Battlefield 6 stat tracker. I thought that was harsh, but the reasons they gave in the email that it was viewed as possible malicious content. 🤷

@JohnnyShoulder yeah seems strangely harsh. Out of interest, what was the email entitled as I never check my emails (for this account) and have over 1000 unread… wondering if I’ve ever had any.
Hi folks, my sister was asking me about keyboard and mouse for my nephews PS5 but I don't know what he'd be playing that offers that option on the console. Any ideas and if so what's a decent set?
@Elfuggingjefe I can only think he wants it for fortnite. He doesn't play much else. My nieces and nephews are a lost cause when it comes to gaming. I tried introducing them to quality games on PS, Xbox & Switch but the Fortnites and Roblox type games came out on top ☹️
@Elfuggingjefe I've jumped in a few times as well but just to speak with my nephews as they played. But you're right and I've made peace with it. My sisters with the kids didn't play games growing up. They weren't interested, so I can blame them for not knowing 🤣
On my 2025 PlayStation Wrap Up, I ended up with just 441 hours played and 13 games. 54% of my game time for the year was spent on Baldur’s Gate 3. 😄
So if I’m mathing correctly, that’s 8 hours gaming per week. I’m disappointed that I didn’t get more played this year. Most years I can get around 20 games played and I think I’m usually over 500 hours at least.
What I did find interesting was the breakdown of how much time I spent on console vs on the Portal, with about 90 of those 440 hours being on the Portal. I actually thought it would be a little more than that, seems I spend more than 20% of my game time on the portable. With cloud streaming having only come out recently, I bet that 2026 numbers will show a heavier split toward the Portal, like maybe 30-40% I suspect.
Also interesting to see which DualSense controller I use most, albeit meaningless information, truly. I use whichever one is charged! 😂
Were you surprised by your end of year data?

i've played shockingly little this year - just six games. The playtime isn't even accurate because it counts when games are paused, and didn't include games played on another PS5 system (but still signed in as me), such as Split Fiction, or Vita games.
According to the summary, my most played game is Alan Wake 2, which I'm still slowly playing, followed by Metal Gear Solid Delta. The true mark of just how little I've played is that the number five game was Man of Medan at 3 hours, followed by one hour of Need For Speed Rivals.
The overwhelming majority of my gaming time this year has been spent on the Switch/Switch 2 and DS. I also played Indiana Jones and the Great Circle on the Xbox. I'm not really surprised by how little I've played on my PS5, as I find it extremely difficult to focus and get very distracted.

811 hours in total. Mostly in the later half of the year too.
1. Digimon Story: Time Stranger for 85 hours. Yeah took that long pretty much. Surprised it wasn't longer actually.
2. Elden Ring for 77 hours apparently. Doesn't feel like I played that for that long. Especially so as I gave up on it and didn't look back. I think I left that running paused for quite a bit tbh.
3. Touhou Artificial Dream In Arcadia for 70 hours. Yeah. Sounds right. Still need to do the post game actually~!
4. Mass Effect Legendary Edition for 68 hours. Seems a bit higher then I expected.
5. Deltarune for 55 hours. Did a fresh save for this replaying chapters one and two. (And that barstool of a secret fight took ages in chapter 3) so... Yeah sounds about right.
My favourite controller was Volcanic Red and it certainly is a sweet controller~!
I purposefully held off doing my PS Wrap-Up in the hopes that it would count my past week's progress, but it seems Sony stopped tracking my stats ten days ago. Looking at my PS5's profile page, Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered should have been in third place, with 54 hours played (and a good dozen trophies added to this year's haul, too). Oh well. It's just a bit of fun, right?
Numbers are up from last year, some by a little, others by a lot. Which is weird because it feels like I barely played anything all summer, but hey. Guess I'm making up for lost time!
Not sure how they worked out putting Dragon Age ahead of Tomb Raider, especially since I got way more trophies from the latter, but Lara "won" my Wrap-Up last year, so I suppose it's only fair.
Oh, and my favourite controller (?!) was my DualSense Chroma Indigo. Thanks for that...?
