@get2sammyb Even if software sales could in theory be more of a buffer, this is an almost guaranteed outcome. I look forward to your article on it, Sammy 😅
@White_oyster Choice is always there, you can choose to turn off that option either straight away or anytime during your trial or first month or whatever time frame it might be. By the same token a vast majority of people wouldn't want to pay manually, every month for Netflix, PS plus, Council Tax etc... the convenience is there and appreciated and always has the option to be stopped. The legal part is there from the beginning, so it's up to a person to accept a degree of responsibility when entering into something like that. It just feels like some just want to complain and cry foul but only when it suits. Appreciate your response mate 👍
Auto renew is a pretty common thing and clearly states it in almost every service you care to take a trial with. It's a bit daft people making out like it's a trap of some kind.
Dusted off the ol Switch OLED and started BotW again, on the commute and lunch break, as I'm just dog tired when I get home in the evening, so this has been the perfect gaming pivot 😄 I expect some wandering and shrines awaits across the weekend.
@Zuljaras I love a good holiday but not many better feelings than being back in your own home afterwards and booting a good game 😃
Unfortunately, I don't, but I'm looking to pick something up in the not too distant future as I also have a massive indie Wishlist that looks like it will always be PC
A curious and perplexing development, as these titles will be on game pass and as they found with Cod, it will be a disaster. Who is actually going to buy them? Clockwork Rev could actually do really well on PS but ah well what are you going to do? 🤷
Conspicuous by their absence @Zuljaras, I hope they are juggling many classics across many platforms.
I'll be trying to play a little Star Wars Outlaws on Sunday morning but I'm not sweating it, I started a new job on Monday and just happy to be spending the weekend resting and catching up with all the wicket madness at Lords.
More Star Wars Outlaws, having a lot of fun with this one. I'm still on the first planet but still finding lots of trouble to get into. The spaceship bits have been more enjoyable than expected, I usually don't gel with that sort of thing.
I've spent most of the week working on the mp for Tomb Raider after @CaptD made the call. That level 60 grind is real but great to jump into something with the old gang.
Haven't decided what I'll play next, I'm leaning towards RDR, The Outer Worlds or Fallout: New Vegas.
Not had a hot minute for much gaming this week but had some welcome news and the pressure is off, leaving me to start enjoying my hobby properly again.
I'll likely keep chipping away at the Oxenfree II plat and return to my playthrough of Death Stranding DC
Played Oxenfree II: Lost Signals this week and it's a real solid sequel. Loved Riley as a protagonist. Hopefully I'll get some time to edge closer to that platinum though I'm reserving #75 for something special, possibly Death Stranding Director's Cut or Metal Gear Solid 3 🤔

Have a boss weekend everyone and happy gaming 👍

@Zuljaras Happy gaming, really wish I had hardware to replay Half Life.
How was your holiday mate?

I bought FFXVI last week as is traditional with this type of thing. Decent month though 👍

Re: Rumour: Gears of War: E-Day Was Coming to PS5, Xbox Cancelled Port Very Recently
@psmr At least there's plenty of fibre, silver linings and all that.

Re: PS5 Early Access Pre-Orders Truly Are Getting Out of Hand
Any word on a physical release, Is it going to be another AW2 situation?

Platted Tomb Raider (2013) in the week which I'm really made up with and now I've jumped into Star Wars Outlaws and having a swell time.
Have a boss weekend all and happy gaming 👍
