It's a milestone issue of WAYP this week, mysteriously coinciding with Ashley Young's 150th appearance for Manchester United. Must be fate, eh? Anyway. It's the end of the first week back at work, and we sincerely hope it's been a slow one for you. How will you be spending the first full weekend of 2017?

I can't really reveal too much, but let's just say I'm looking forward to a dirty weekend with the Gravity Queen.

In between watching the Smite World Championships this weekend – yes I know, I've really gone off the deep end this time – I'll be continuing my quest in Final Fantasy XV, starting Gravity Rush Remastered, and flying around the Milky Way in the hope I get grabbed by the Thargoids in Elite Dangerous. Sounds painful!

I'm visiting family this weekend, so I've been getting into Steep with my Dad which is actually a surprisingly good game. It's a really great experience when played with others, so I'll be putting some more time into that when I'm not watching Jaap Stam return to Old Trafford in the FA Cup.

I'm actually making steady process in Final Fantasy XV and will continue to do so this weekend. I'll also make some time to try out Overwatch and the new Oasis map. On the non-PlayStation side of things, Pokémon Moon deserves some of my attention. I've got my Litten starter… Now to go catch the rest of my team!

This weekend I'll be playing through my WWE 2K17 MyCareer mode as well as my WWE Universe save. Currently Mr Bean is the World Heavyweight Champion, but Donald Trump is hot on his heels, not least thanks to a savage beating with a kendo stick before one of Bean's matches.

My main focus this weekend will be finishing up The Last Guardian. It feels strange to finally be playing it, but luckily, I'm loving every minute of it. Once I'm done, I have Deus Ex: Mankind Divided to lose myself in, thanks to the January sale.

A New Year means new games for me. I will be starting things off with Shenmue (which I have never played) along with a bit of Dead Island Riptide and Fallout 4. In between those it will be LEGO Dimensions with my son.
That's what we're up to this weekend, then – but what about you? 150 issues in you should know the drill by now. Let us know in the comments section below.

If I'm not on Fallout 4 then I'm being Batman once again with the remaster of Arkham Asylum. Still holds up as great game!!
Tomb Raider and FF15 around the football.
May try and dip into the Swindle and see if it is any good.
For me it is a gaming three way (if only life were the same). Rise of the Tomb Raider on PS4, I want to try and get some VR gaming done, possibly another run through of Rush of Blood and continuing my run through of P4G on Vita. I am managing about 20 minutes a day so far so this will take me until, well god knows when to complete!
I picked up Duke Nukem 3d in the sale and it's still surprisingly fun so will be giving it's new chapter a go. Other than that I'm trying to defeat Adamantoise on FFXV and when that's done I'll get started on The Last Guardian
Resi 5, Trials Fusion and Tomb Raider are on the cards
Got Tintalfall 2 as a gift today so I will spend most of my time with it. At least for now I liked it a lot. Also planning ot spend sometime with Dead Rising
Hoping to play some Rise of Tomb Raider, Uncharted 4 and Diablo 3. I'm travelling tomorrow so I'll be resorting to my Vita after that, aiming to play some Darkest Dungeon and keep ploughing through Trails in the Sky SC which I just want to finish at this point (great game but very long and I've been on and off it too often so I just want to finish it off)
Finished playing the last guardian, now playing shantae hgh and resident evil 4 ps4. I want to play tomb raider 2016 but ps4 pro still not available in most of asia
Still have Dooms Campaign to finish - at the second stage of the 11th mission Boss fight on the hardest difficulty setting available on the first playthrough but finding it difficult to motivate myself to finish the game as the story is weak, characters are weak and gameplay is quite repetitive too.
I still have R&C to finish on Challenge mode (2nd playthrough) as well as try and beat CoD:MWr's bonus mission (on the plane) on veteran in under 1min. I may play a bit of Infinite Warfare (zombies or MP) too.
On XB1, I may restart Alien Isolation or Evil Within - I feel like playing a Horror game. I do have a few games in my backlog like Sunset Overdrive, Halo collection, Rare Replay etc as well as some of the GwG freebies like Thief, Murdered Soul Suspect, AC4 etc too
I am not short of options...
i am in truth more looking forward to Horizon and Mass Effect and feel like most games are passing time until these release.
Doom, its amazing. Reminds me a lot of wolvenztein the New order
Somehow sucked back into Diablo - maybe I'll get the plat finally. Then back to FFXV.
I've dipped back in to No Man's Sky and I swear that planets look more varied now. Just spent all my space credits on a 31 slot ship.
Persona 4 Dancing all Night.
I actually like it. A lot.
A few rounds of Rory Mcilroy P.G.A.Tour Golf waiting for Yakuza 0 a physical copy i can just smell that Japanese craftmanship oh yeah.
oh and resi 7.

Last game I finished was G.T.A.San Andreas even that was just story not !00% done how do you finish these games without a headache and that was 12 years ago.
Gonna finish infamous second son (Hopefully) and mess around with my mates in overwatch.
PS4: Lego Harry Potter Remastered, Unravel, Batman Arkham Knight
PSVR: -
PSVita: World of Final Fantasy
Chipping away at Lego Harry Potter Remastered. Aiming at 2 Levels per day. The collection packs a lot. Reckon I'll still be playing in February.
Won't get any VR in & the main reason being Unravel. What a charming game. Best £6 I spent. Should I finish it, I might finally start Batman Arkham Knight, which should carry me over till Gravity Rush 2.
On Vita continuing my globe trotting adventure in World of Final Fantasy. I dislike the battle system, but I'm loving the journey. Thank god for Auto-Battle.
Just a repeat of last weekend for me which is no bad thing.More Final Fantasy XV and Colour Guardians..although the last main boss is really frustrating so doubt I'll be on it for long.
I am also determined to get back into Dragon Quest Builders and some VR.
After the hassle of moving in November then the kids off school for Christmas this may be my first chance to get some gaming. Looking at at selection of games ratchet and clank final boss now I've extended my health bar and boosted some more weapons to max. Rise of tomb raider and titanfall 2 not started either yet. Or a bit of Cod online and a sprinkling of dariusburst as great in small doses, but 3000 levels is a tall order would take me decades also how they can charge so much for the new DLC when finishing the game is nigh on impossibly long.
Pokémon Sun if I feel like it after work and have time. If not, nothing until the week days because that's when I'm off. I still have Watch Dogs 2, Titanfall 2 & Battlefield 1 campaigns, Final Fantasy 15, The Last Guardian, and Dishonored 2 to get caught up on before Resident Evil 7....
PS4-Street Fighter V, Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3, and King of Fighters 14
3DS- Pokemon Moon, Animal Crossing New Leaf
Xbox One- GTA 5
Slow week at work, yeah right....
I will be replaying Diva F2nd to have my trophies count this time, and in anticipation for Tuesday's Vocaloid overload. Plus more Uncharted 3 and Double Dragon Neon with the bro. Prolly show off the Nes Mini to a visiting friend on Sunday.

Im takin a break from ps4, till i get the pro. So for now im playin south park the stick of truth on ps3. God damn that game is really good, and hilarious
@BAMozzy mass effect is gonna be soooooo dope
@get2sammyb Im SOOO jealous but also happy for you.
Ill be playing WoFF finishing off the story then on to TLG.... been saying that for weeks though. I discovered My name is Mayo thanks to PS4 Trophies on YT. Got both platinums last night for .99 cents.
I've just finished ratchet and clank, still haven't platinum it yet dough, but i don't feel like playing it again right now, i think i'll keep playing fallout 4, i'm getting the game now 😂 and i might play a bit overwatch in the middle too 😆
I'm not entirely sure, am I'm trying to wrap up Dragon Age with a few other playthroughs at the moment. I'll likely just play Dragon Age, but my mind isn't made up.
Peggle 2 when the kids are about and DOOM when they're not.
Resident Evil 5, Until Dawn, Shantae, Uncharted 1, and Lara Croft Go
@kyleforrester87 I really dislike the direction they took trials, the crazy over the top worlds seemed bit ott. But what's even weirder is I miss that game most weeks after trading it in! Every time its advertised on psn I hover over buying it for a few minutes.
This weekend my wife's been taken into ozy so I might be able to get a quick game of infamous In between looking after my family going to work and visiting the wife.
@themcnoisy Hmmm seemed like the only way they could go with it if in my opinion, get what you mean though but it's still the same game as the last ones at the end of the day. I have had it on my hard drive since launch and dip into it occasionally, I got all the season 1 DLC for £3.99 in the sale so been playing it more recently
(Although the unicorn stuff is dumb!)
I'll be playing Dark Heresy with my RPG group and then some Overwatch, Smite, and maybe Let it Die... Who knows. Lol
Odin Sphere for me this weekend, blown away with it so far.
@Lovespuds I liked the look of this but didn't think much of the demo.. I'm waiting until I can get it on the cheap somehow
Ratchet & Clank, The Last Guardian, Steep, PES 2017, Pokémon Sun and Titanfall 2, playing all the games I got for Christmas or bought with gifted money. Yea. Boi.
Im actually really back into Destiny after about 10 months away from it, Trying to get that Year 3 Thorn, so yeah I'll be doing a bunch of different stuff on there
@kyleforrester87
I tried the demo and was unimpressed but for some reason I kept finding myself drawn to it, probably due to having loved it on PS2.
Turns out that demo is terrible, there are so many systems at play that make no sense in the demo, but the game introduces them nicely. The combat is really satisfying, I am not very good at fighting games but this makes you feel like a bad ass, getting enemies airborne and then juggling them is sooooo satisfying!
Production values are second to none too, the music is amazing and the visuals....what can I say....wow!
I think it one of those games that might prove difficult to find later on, its still 45 quid in the few places that have it in stock. It was bought as a gift for me so I am really pleased with it.
Well, my PS4 (launch) started acting super weird - crashing and not turning on for a half hour or so. So I went out and used the money I would've spent on the switch and bought a PS4 pro instead. I don't have a 4K tv so my usage so far is limited.
I did finish The main quest in FFXV, though. Not sure if I'll be able to play anything else today as it is playoffs for American football today. My team hasn't been in the playoffs in 8 years but is missing like 7-8 of their starters.
@Lovespuds yeah I'm still very interested in it even though I didn't like the demo. You may well be right about it becoming a bit rare and maintaining its price.. Still I can't really justify £40 based on the experience of the demo. I'm hoping it shows up in a digital sale.
Diablo 3 babyyyyyyyyy (on PC though, need that Season 9 gear)
Kinda in the mood for payday2 again.
I got FFXV about 3 weeks ago but have still only played it 3 times for some reason. It's not that I don't like it but I think it's actually hard to play it because then it'll be over. It's kind of like the feeling of running through pristine snow. That said, I should really get back to it.
Other than that, I just got The Last Guardian so I'll be playing that soon (in a few minutes, in fact). I've also been playing RE5 on PS4 and Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies on 3DS. Nearly finished the latter.
Edit: Oh man. I hate to say it but TLG runs like crap. The framerate has to be in the low 20s at best, usually in the teens. It's giving me a headache to play. It feels like I'm trying to play Dishonored 2 on a PC from 2009. It's genuinely unpleasant to play and is distracting me from enjoying the game. I might have to leave it and hope it's fixed with patches.
@get2sammyb Is the Gravity Rush 2 embargo well before release then since review copies are already out? Also the Kinda Funny guys said the email with the review code was upside down, was it the same for Push Square?
@adf86 It's very soon. I imagine that was an American thing with the email, as mine was the correct way up.
Going to mix gaming fingers with green fingers this weekend! Back on Destiny lvl 1 to help a mate new to ps4. Enjoying a jolly romp in elderscrolls online. Ratchet and clank. .. came free with bundle. Then laying in bed on 3DS fire emblem fates.
Found out there is an H2Overdrive by Hydro Thunder successor. Then got really drunk at a big als and upgraded like 4 boats. I guess you can save progress to a passcode for the next time you want to get drunk and play your upgraded boats
@JaxonH "Dragon's Dogma (you were right @rjejr this game is truly a classic)"
I only played that game for about an hour, and while I did like it, I don't think I ever told you it was any good.
I did really like Asura's Wrath, which came out at about the same time, but I never got around to DD:DA.
@rjejr
Ah must've been someone else. Coulda sworn it was you but, guess not
