I always preferred Gran Turismo having grew up playing the whole series but Forza 2 & 3 were fantastic on the 360.

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.

Velvet Crowe and gang please.

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.

A real man right there.

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.

Nothing will beat the original Mass Effect trailer which showed every major event throughout the game.

Classic Everybody's Golf. I'm not complaining.

I just hope that the writing and dialogue is as good as the games it's compared with.

Shouting at dragons in Skyrim.

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.

My boy Henry of Skalitz and the Expedition 33 team get my nod.

I'm playing a 14 year old game for the zillionth time and loving it all over again.

Skyrim

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.

Saw DON'TNOD and sci-fi and was really hoping for a Remember Me sequel.

I'll be celebrating the beauty of capitalism.

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.

This is just the 1979 video by Smashing Pumpkins as a game and I'm well down for it.

Any excuse to see my man Muamar and his fantastic mullet.

Looks like I'll once again be putting the story on hold whilst wandering the map to fill Authur's journal with nature sketches.

I'm well buying this. Pure nostalgia.

Yes! 15th playthrough incoming.

Day one. I know for a fact that the most impressive thing about this game will be its written quests, characters and dialogue.

Nothing beats an NPC turning up at your camp trying to sell you dlc in Dragon Age Origins.

Nearing the end of yet another Baldur's Gate 3 run. I'm stumped on what to play after this though. Maybe Alan Wake 2?

Baldur's Gate 3. I've put another 89 hours into this run so far and looking back at my previous character saves, I've spent almost 500 hours total on this game. I think I like it.

Can we have Cherami Leigh again?

I started it and the nostalgia was strong but I'm deep into other games at the moment. Looking forward to getting stuck in soon.

My favourite game of all time until Cyberpunk 2077 took its crown.
Can't wait for Ciri's adventure.

The good old days of walking into my local newsagents and buying a £1.99 cassette game for my Acorn Electron are long over.

I'm just about to murder a Selûnite cleric because my evil blood wills it. This is in Baldur's Gate 3, by the way, I'm not a psychopathic lunatic.

I always remember The Witcher 2's Assassin of King's trailer which is still excellent to this day.

It's a very decent game and it's got Garrus Vakarian in it.

Rock collectors definitely won't be buying this.

They mustn't know that the girls can wear swimsuits in this.

For those who come after.

The physics and NPC intelligence in this game were so much better that GTAV's.

I still tease my nephew about the time I caught him getting a lap dance in the strip club in GTAV when it first came out. He's 21 now.

Ghost Recon Wildlands

Dodging, parrying and dice rolling in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and Baldur's Gate 3.

I can't bloody wait! First thing that I'm gonna do is just walk around the streets taking in the atmosphere.

For those that come after. 9/10 Terrific game so far. Still in act 2.

I like Statham. He's like the modern day 80/90's action flick star like Schwarzenegger, Snipes, Willis et al. A likeable style of cheese.

The lighting in these shots is exceptional.

Everybody complaining about how it will look when actually playing must have forgotten the seamless transitions from cutscenes to gameplay in RDR2.

Wow! This looks and sounds phenomenal.

Place of power. Gotta be.

This game can be quite dark and moody but it also has some proper funny twisted humour. Love it.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and Baldur's Gate 3. Both superb turn based RPGs and both games have Shadowheart in them.

I've got a digital only PS5 so I always opt for the standard edition when buying games day one. Most of the time I wait for a sale, though.
