Sweeping up the remaining trophies for the Gotham Knights platinum. Also started playing the Arkham trilogy with Arkham Asylum. Still a great game with imaginative boss fights.
Continuing my push for the platinum in Skyrim. It's a long but enjoyable adventure. Had to pause it last week in the glorious weather because my PS5 shutdown with overheat.
Whenever it's raining in Night City, I'm switching to auto drive, tuning in to Pacific Dreams radio and then just staring out of the window for maximum vibes.
I'm still playing Skyrim. Level 50 now and I'm yet to finish any of the factions or main quest. I'm walking everywhere and delving into every cave/tomb/ruin I come across. A timeless RPG.
I tried DA Veilguard and at first was really enjoying it, thinking that the ridicule was unjustified, but after another 15 hours or so I'd had enough. The combat was the same at every encounter and the dialogue was very out of place for the setting and often felt like listening to a bunch of 2025 teens conversing in a coffee shop.
Alan Wake 2. It's bats**t crazy but it looks absolutely gorgeous when playing.
Fired up the Xbox and saw that Baldur's Gate 1 & 2 EE and Metaphor: ReFantazio were on Game Pass so I've downloaded those.

Forget Marcus, there's only one Fenyx that I'm playing.
Immortals: Fenyx Rising
Re: $200 MGS Delta Collector's Edition Ridiculed Over Temu-Esque Snake Figurine
Looks like those parachute figures you used to lob out of your bedroom window.
Re: Ghost of Yotei Focuses on Firearms in Latest PS5 Gameplay Video
I hope this has those standoffs like in Tsushima. Loved them.
Re: Metal Gear Solid Delta Patch Promised, But No Mention of PS5 Performance Improvements
I bet this is all blown out of proportion and still perfectly playable, just like Dragon's Dogma 2 was.
Re: Round Up: The Outer Worlds 2 Could Be One of the Best RPGs of the Year, Say Positive Previews
I'm looking forward to Outer Worlds 2 but I can't trust the critics again after DA Veilguard got 9's and 10's.
Re: Preview: The Outer Worlds 2 Doubles Down on RPG Gameplay to Great Effect
Looking forward to this. Got it pre-downloaded on the Xbox.
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for September 2025 Announced
Stardew Valley is a gem.
Re: Skate's Free-to-Play Revival Rides into Early Access on PS5, PS4 in September
I'll try it. If it's pants, I've always got Skate 3 on my Xbox to fall back on. I hope that the music isn't just all modern rubbish.
Re: 'The Number of Live Service Games Is Not Important': PS5 Boss Gives Rare Insight into Strategy
I've been in a gaming funk for a while now. All I seem to play is older titles from the PS4/3.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 595
My love of Ubisoft comfort games continues with AC Odyssey and Immortals: Fenyx Rising.
Re: Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater (PS5) - The Best Version of an Undisputed Classic
@Uromastryx Yeah, the legit way of hunting him is the best way but I just admire that there's options for killing him early and by cheating.
Re: Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater (PS5) - The Best Version of an Undisputed Classic
Still my favourite MGS game. That theme song, those boss fights and classic David Hayter. I wonder if you can still off The End by tinkering the date?
Re: LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight Is a Movie-Spanning Adventure Coming to PS5
I'm well up for this one. They need to slap a gruff filter on the Bats' voice though.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 594
Playing as the caped crusader in Batman Arkham City and a Greek Goddess mercenary in AC Odyssey.
Re: The Outrageously Over-the-Top Fast & Furious Arcade Game Is Coming to PS5
Bring back Rad Mobile with the swinging Sonic on the mirror.
Re: EA Refuses to Fund the Dragon Age Remasters You Crave
I played through Origins and DA2 again just last year on Game Pass. Still fantastic games despite their ageing looks.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 593
Sweeping up the remaining trophies for the Gotham Knights platinum. Also started playing the Arkham trilogy with Arkham Asylum. Still a great game with imaginative boss fights.
Re: Claim a Bunch of Free PS Plus Avatars with These PSN Codes
That Valerie looks like such a gonk.
Re: Rumour: Starfield PS5 to Take Flight Alongside New Expansion Next Year
I thought that it was okay in places. Your companions are a dull bunch though. I crewed my ship with hired npc's because they were more entertaining.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 592
@KingPev Yeah, Batgirl all the way. She's the most well rounded.
Her skill set isn't bad either.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 592
Gotham Knights. I feel that the reviews for this game were a tad harsh. It's pretty decent with some great villain fight sequences.
Re: Rumour: Kingdom Come: Deliverance Coming to PS5 with Native Version
Oh yes please. I'd love to give a revenge thrashing to Runt again in 60fps.
Re: Free PSN Avatar Collection Incoming for PS Plus Members, Featuring God of War, Cyberpunk, More
I've had Luisa Fortuna from Red Dead Redemption as my avatar for three console generations but I'd swap it for a Judy Álvarez.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 591
I finally got the plat for Skyrim so I'll be chilling out with some Everybody's Golf and grinding the Gotham streets at night in Gotham Knights.
Re: Star Wars Outlaws Sequel Reportedly Cancelled, Will Stay in a Galaxy Far, Far Away
I enjoyed this game. It wasn't amazing but it wasn't as bad as people made out either.
Re: In Unsurprising News, Even More Xbox Ports Are Allegedly En Route to PS5
BioWare classic, Jade Empire.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 590
Continuing my push for the platinum in Skyrim. It's a long but enjoyable adventure.
Had to pause it last week in the glorious weather because my PS5 shutdown with overheat.
Re: Cyberpunk 2077 Patch 2.3 Out Now, Adds New Quests, Cars, AutoDrive, VRR on PS5, More
Whenever it's raining in Night City, I'm switching to auto drive, tuning in to Pacific Dreams radio and then just staring out of the window for maximum vibes.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for July 2025?
So jealous of people starting Cyberpunk 2077 for the very first time.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 589
Playing Skyrim in bursts because my PS5 is like a heater in this weather.
Re: Ghost of Yotei Confirms Japanese Dub at Launch, Complete with Full Lip-Syncing
Played Tsushima in Japanese and will do so again for Atsu's adventure.
Re: PS5's Ghost of Yotei Fully Revealed in 20 Minute State of Play on 10th July
This game is a day oner for me.

Slaying snow elves with Serana in Skyrim.
Re: Gran Turismo's Primary Console Competitor May Be No More
I always preferred Gran Turismo having grew up playing the whole series but Forza 2 & 3 were fantastic on the 360.
Re: Surprise Red Dead Online Content Update Brings Fresh Hope for PS5 Port
I occasionally go back to RDO just to chill out and do a few dailies. I love how passive and friendly the player base is on there compared to GTAO.
Re: The Next Tales of Remaster Could Finally Be Announced This Week
Velvet Crowe and gang please.
Re: Death Stranding 2 Is Causing Some PS5s to Overheat
Baldur's Gate 3 was always the heat bane of my PS5. Had to open her up a few weeks back for a deep clean.
Re: Random: Stellar Blade Dev Gives Insane Anatomically Accurate Explanation of Why Butts Are Beautiful
A real man right there.

A timeless RPG.
Re: Don't Watch Death Stranding 2's PS5 Launch Trailer
Nothing will beat the original Mass Effect trailer which showed every major event throughout the game.
Re: Hot Shots Golf Fans Fume at Use of Generative AI in PS5 Revival
Classic Everybody's Golf. I'm not complaining.
Re: The Witcher, Kingdom Come Vibes in Blood of Dawnwalker Gameplay
I just hope that the writing and dialogue is as good as the games it's compared with.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 586
Shouting at dragons in Skyrim.
Re: Poll: How Do You Feel About The Last of Us Part 2, 5 Years Later?
I remember when I played it and took a real dislike to older Ellie and was actually rooting for Abby to smash her skull in.
Re: Talking Point: What's Your PS5 Game of the Year for 2025 So Far?
My boy Henry of Skalitz and the Expedition 33 team get my nod.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 585
I'm playing a 14 year old game for the zillionth time and loving it all over again.
Skyrim

Re: DON'T NOD Goes Cinematic Sci-Fi in 2026's Aphelion on PS5
Saw DON'TNOD and sci-fi and was really hoping for a Remember Me sequel.
Re: Obsidian RPG The Outer Worlds 2 Out This October on PS5
I'll be celebrating the beauty of capitalism.
