Topic: Your Latest PlayStation 5 Purchase

I bought Doki Doki Literature Club and Pepper Grinder as I had money in the bank from PS Stars.

Never played a visual novel before, so will be interesting to see how I find it.

I decided to buy Broken Sword - Shadow of the Templars: Reforged. I was a bit hesitant when I saw the price, but I couldn't resist playing through the game again.

The PS5 Pro

Quite simply, it's the most powerful console we've ever made.

I suppose I also purchased the PS5 Pro...
Now if only I could also get the BD Drive for it without paying double...

Hmmmmm I thought I would be the only one here to announce that but yes my latest purchase was the PS5 Pro

For anyone interested... the pro has been back on sale in the UK for a while tonight. Don't know if Push mentioned it anywhere... yet 😛

@Ravix same in Germany if someone is still interested 😅🫣

After playing the demo I had to pre-order Metaphor: ReFantazio. I was disappointed when the demo ended. It was surprisingly long though. Took me roughly 5 hours to finish.

I also picked up Palworld to play in co-op. We probably won't get round to playing it just yet because we're in the middle of playing 7 Days to Die - Console Edition, but it'll be the next game on our list.

Picked up Sand Land, Atlas Fallen & Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth

@BeyondKnight I can't recommend Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth enough. My favorite game this year!

@Khwarezm89 Looking forward to playing it, got it on sale thru Woot as they have some great video game sales

FC25 💀💀💀

Sometimes I just can't be bothered to get stuck into a good game, I guess 😅😅

@Ravix tbh I’d just boot up fc24 again can’t be arsed to buy a public beta 💀 💀 💀

@Yousef- better off burning money tbf

Too true too true

It's not actually too bad. I mean it is, but they must have fixed the servers so it isn't a wait around simulator at least, and matchmaking was actually fast. The only real problem now is that it is FC25 and not anything else ever made ever, but hey ho 😅😅

Hey ho

@Ravix I guess EA FC 25 except the Ultimate team is a good Football game. I played Career mode in EA FC 24 and it wasn't that bad. Got EA FC 25 but decided to play Ultimate team but not competitive and getting all the meta players blah blah blah. Instead I'm building Liverpool FC team and hopefully in the future I can get their heroes and Icons players too

Just picked up Wanted Dead. I remember liking what I saw of it prior to its release but then the stone-cold reaction from the various reviewers across the board put me off and I hadn’t considered it since. Saw a couple of peeps gushing about it in the WAYPTW article though and it stirred some curiosity. Actually looks frikkin awesome, with a major patch to the balancing made earlier this year. From what I gather it’s incredibly difficult and that might’ve been a big part of why the critics reacted to it so negatively but I have a feeling it could be a very good Character Action Game if your willing to invest the time and effort.

@Malaise interesting stuff, cheers for providing a bit more context into why it received the reaction it did. I’m intrigued though, the combination of a more deliberate Character Action melee and third-person shooter combat is pretty much the dream… if executed well.

There isn’t even a trophy guide out for it… probably a combination of the sheer difficulty of the platinum (have to complete it on all 6 difficulties including Japanese-Hard) and the extremely small player base that ignored the reviews and actually played it. I have a feeling that if it did have one, the platinum difficulty would be rated up there with Metal Gear Rising and Devil May Cry 5 as the most difficult platinums for the genre.
