It's Christmas! Well, almost. Many of you will be flitting around like robins trying to complete the last of your holiday preparations this weekend, but the remainder of you will be eschewing the seasonal spirit by wrapping up warm with your PlayStation 4. We want to hear from the latter of you.

I'm still trying to get 100 per cent completion in Final Fantasy XV, but if the tidal wave of post-game monster hunts get me down, I'm more than ready to jump on Uncharted 4 and sink some time into the new Survival mode. Destiny's always an option, too – I haven't even logged in to check out the winter event stuff yet.

Now that the end of 2016 is pretty much here, I'm trying to catch up at least a little bit on my overlong backlog. I'm hoping to finish Persona 4: Dancing All Night before the New Year so I'm definitely going to need to try and pluck away at that. But I also play Rainbow Six: Siege pretty much daily, so I'll probably be playing some of that, too.

After an intense ten day Final Fantasy XV binge I secured myself the Platinum trophy and possibly a bout of carpal tunnel syndrome to boot. I should probably be going for a palette cleanser, or at least one of the many games in my backlog aching to be played, but instead I'm playing Final Fantasy VII for the what is probably the eleventh time, trying to earn 99,999,999 gil in order to pick up the Platinum in this one, too.

This weekend I'll be playing some GTA V Online with a few friends as we found and operate our motorcycle club – it's a bit grindy, but still largely fun. I'll also begin my Deus Ex: Mankind Divided play through as I begin to catch up on the 2016 releases that slipped through the net.

I got the weekend started by preparing some warming Christmas dinner with friends in Overcooked's free Festive Seasoning update. Today I think I'll continue my current run in Invisible Inc., which is going immeasurably better than my first try, and I might also jump into Overwatch to check out its new Christmassy content.

So with it raining constantly this weekend for me, I will be getting a lot of game time in via Stories: The Path of Destinies and Overwatch.
The podium's all yours now: what are you playing this weekend? Give us your full gaming itinerary in the comments section below.

FF15 and Stardew Valley for me. I've got Red Faction waiting to be played too..
A bit of Overwatch and spending my time mostly with Trove. Simple game but I find it very addictive.
@Melucine Does it have Trophies?
@get2sammyb Not yet, but as far as I know they will have in the near future, after all they have an option to chek them in game, that doesn't works ). Maybe after the end of beta.
Finished Bayonetta 2 last night, sadly pretty much putting my Wii U out to pasture as I also recently finished Lego City Undercover and gave up halfway thru Paper Mario Colour Splash as it got too stupid. RIP Wii U
I think I'm going to take the week off doing holiday prep - I'm cooking dinner for 15 Christmas Eve - and finishing up Westworld and Ballers season 2 (I tend to wait for seasons to be over before I watch). Plus December means NFL football, though I'm skipping the Jets tonight.
Next week starts my PS4 life w/ Uncharted 4, R&C, FFXV and DQH, so I'm kind of looking forward to a break before tackling all of those.
Getting started with the ESO xmas event and making my way through the painfully bad last chapters of FFXV.
Finished FFXV last night, so will wait until the DLC is out next week before I dive back in, I might try and get past that damn daemon baby in The Witcher 3
@rjejr
Your time always sounds so hectic. I think you'll enjoy ratchet and clank its relentlessly good, it helps I had no expectations going into it. Just enjoy each moment games like this are a rare treat.
Tis my worryingly large birthday this weekend so hoping to get some new games, more than likely VR games to play. My wife will also be watching the strictly final so may escape upstairs and play some Vita games on pstv. Possibly killzone mercenary.
I am downloading the Uncharted 4 update as I still don't know if it supports couch co op or not.
Besides that I will try to complete Ape Escape 2 and dl the new Shantae on Wii U.
Wanted to start FFXV but awaiting my gameguide. So started another backlog game, Shadow of Mordor. Guess I'll be playing that instead.
Don't get me wrong, it's a good game but FFXV is better.... hopefully ^^
Uncharted 4 Survival
Steamworld Heist (just started this one and am loving it)
@Rudy_Manchego Happy birthday man have a great one!
@Aexurion Dont delay, the game is fantastic. I dont think you need a guide. I haven't used one yet and am on the way to the platinum with around 5-12 hours left as a complete guess, maybe even less depending on if their are no hidden post content trophies. Honestly man its my goty easily.
This weekend Im playing FF15, last few chapters coming up! a pity I'm in work Sunday but will hopefully notch up a few more hours.
Also if anyone's out there we have the Forum GOTY 2016 taking place obviously in the forums in the PS4 section. It would be nice to have your votes. Big ups to everyone who already has!
More Final Fantasy XV for me, after spending far too much time fishing/hunting/chocobo racing I need to plough on through the story. Currently on chapter 7 or 8 and I'm determined not to get distracted anymore so I will head to that mission marker once I've checked out this new fishing spot ......
Final Fantasy XV, then maybe MORE FINAL FANTASY XV ^_^
I finished The Last Guardian, so I went back playing The Witcher 3, almost done too!
PS4-Street Fighter V, Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3, King of Fighters 14
3DS- Animal Crossing New Leaf
Doom,Rise of the Tomb Raider and the underrated Let It Die.
I've been playing Red Dead Redemption...and wondering why I haven't played it before. It's so good. I'm hoping the next game is just as good.
Started nobunagas_ambition_sphere_of_influence. BIG learning curve, but I think it will pay off in the end. Soon all Japan will be mine!...or an honorable death.
Finishing off Steamworld Heist then probably on to Bloodborne: The Old Hunters or Stories: Path of Destinies depending on my mood!
Picked up Steep for a decent price and will be chilling out with it when I can this weekend. Enjoying it so far, there's something pretty cool about carving down a mountain at my own pace. When I need to liven things up I'll be reclaiming my mid table obscurity in battlefield 1 multiplayer.
I'm just going to purchase another charger for the vita (since someone broke the last one)
Going to play some Dragon Age Origins. Because I'm a dumb person, I actually had to turn down the difficulty in Orzammar. Stake me.
All Christmas wrapping finished (a week earlier than last year) so with no worrying about that I'll be playing more Final Fantasy XV,Colour Guardians and Job Simulator for the VR which I'm enjoying alot
Doing a bit of grand theft auto in GTA Online and I've just rescued Naoto in P4G. In the words of Wayne and Garth, game on!
PES2017 and Dishonored 2... this time stealthy mode with Emily
PS4: CoD IW, CoD MW, Transformers Devestation
PSVR: Everybody's Gone to the Rapture (cinema mode), Thumper
PSVita: World of Final Fantasy
I'm trying to get the JRPGs out. Played way too many for WAYY too long. Need to cleanse that palate in anticipation of GR2 & I still want to get a run through of the original in first.
Finished CoD IW, but that game reminds me why I'm not into plain shooters. Had to turn the difficulty down to regular. A humbling experience for someone that platinumed Bloodborne & only plays games at their highest difficulty. Story was nothing special, but I did really enjoy the climax & it's a very pretty game.
Modern Warfare Remastered however is really really good.
Overwatch and I just bought Battlefront season pass, so I'll be installing it again
Overwatch and gta v, i'm absolutly loving that game, my fallout 4 game will arrive monday throught mail, 3 games at once, i need a vacation to play them all 😂
rogue one
Titanfall 2 single player campaign. I am about to beat it but I really have not enjoyed it so I will trade it in after completion. I have also started up Hearthstone on my tablet. Also as always Animal Crossing where I will be landscaping as I await Jingle's visit.
It's watch dogs 2 for me. Trying to finish the campaign off before moving on to either TLG, rise of the tomb raider, I've even still got U4 unplayed. I had all these plans once I got myself the pro. Trying to get through those games is not such an easy feat
@themcnoisy The waiting is hard lol. But a little mention about personal situation is in order. Me and my wife always team up with FFs, she reads and tells me where to go while I have fun enjoying surroundings and killing bosses. Of course, both of us spend quality time seeing the story unfold. With FFXII we beat the game like that and both had lots of fun and laughs about me messing up occasionally or finally beating Yiazmat.
Gonna end it there before I end up rambling too much ^^
@Aexurion couldn't have been hard explaining where to go next in FF13 lol

@JaxonH Sorry but discussion of system modding is not allowed here. Please don't mention it again. Thanks for understanding -Tasuki-
Destiny, Watchdogs 2
@JaxonH Bionic Wii U, the gift that keeps on giving.
Man, you got censored for that? It always blows my mind to see you get censored, you're like the nicest guy I know. I reread the email 3x and even the NSA snoopers looking for DMCA stuff wouldn't have picked up on that post, it's clean as a whistle. Oh well, their site their rules I guess. At least you didn't get blasted for mentioning non-Sony games and consoles, they're usually a bit defensive about that stuff.
Nearly finish playing the last guardian, I'm not that good at puzzle game so usually if I stuck too long on some puzzle I just turn off ps4 and play again on the next day. Can't wait to replay it with all the knowledge of the puzzle
@rjejr
No kiddin right?
After beating FFXV I decided to finish up FFVIII buuut it seems to have grown legs and got itself lost So I decided to play KH BBS and bored with that after 20minutes. Soo I decided to play um..FFXV again lol
@JaxonH I liked your shrugged shoulders, kicking it old school.
"some people" - Yeah, I think that about covers it. Thanos and I had a big run in w/ Gcunit awhile back about something I said - "graphics *****" - about somebody who likes graphics over gameplay, probably referring to myself and my total disregard for anything retro looking - and things got a bit heated - I flew off the handle as usual - but after awhile I think it turned out ok and now when Thanos or I type something we shouldn't - and there are a LOT of somethings us old timers type we apparently shouldn't - he handles it ok now. On here, well I usually need to ban myself for a week before I get banned permanently. Are you on twitter? No censors on twitter, so when he annoys me on here I usually go on there and curse a lot, I'm childish like that.
Man, that was way too long and off topic, sorry everyone.
@rjejr
If anything needs censoring it's you and those emoticons lol...
Watch Dogs 2, Lara Croft Go, Batman: The Telltale Series
@kyleforrester87 True true! Wasn't my fav FF, to say the least. Only FF, I played, I didn't finish. And I went pretty far with it but got bored and just dropped it. Maybe I MIGHT finish it someday, dunno.
Still trying to finish Alien Isolation without getting killed and without killing anyone else. Even on easy this is a hard game, I've had to restart a couple of chapters as I got killed by those face hugger scumbags.
A whole lot of nothing since I've been at my in-laws all weekend for observed Xmas. But I did bring my DS so logged a few hours on Pokemon Moon.
A lot of Just Dance 2017 so far. It really is a major improvement over JD2016.
Picked up Norovirus on Wednesday so cracking on with that at the moment , hope to have it finished by tonight but still not quite 100% , sadly no trophies. 🤢
Windows Phone
Fruit Ninja - Great time killer
Game Room: Lunar Lander - Another great time killer
Angry Birds - I want to throw the phone sometimes...
Working on the Oceanhorn Platinum. Fun game
Literally spent the whole night at work playing FF XV and WoFF
A little big of Dragon Quest Heroes and some more Gems Of War to get that last trophy hopefully (only 5 more levels to go)
