@Marquez that’s the best part of Destiny, what kept me coming back for years…the shooting in that game is the best available in gaming right now bar none
I went on a tear and bought the Nioh Remastered Collection, Catherine Full Body and Metroid Prime Remastered this past week. Gonna dip into the first Nioh game
Ghostwire Tokyo, though I’m quite sure I won’t be doing all the myriad collections. On the fence about buying Valkyrie Profile Lenneth….been told it’s not advisable to play through without a guide
@Th3solution that Artorias fight and all the lore behind it are my favorite part of the first game. Such a treat. And the Black Dragon fight was awesome too
I rolled credits on both God of War (2018) and Spider-Man Miles Morales yesterday….
Gonna begin Ghost of Tsushima I think.
Oh and nearly forgot…after MM I sunk 2 hours or so into the beginning of Odin Sphere: Lefthrasir. I can see myself getting stuck on Odin Sphere for a while…brilliant game thus far.
I played a bit of the career mode when it released on GP. I like that the game can be as relaxed as you want it or as involved as you want. Had a really good time with it for a couple weeks.
This weekend I’m going back and forth between God of War 2018 and Spider-Man Miles Morales. GOW is an absolute treat for the eyes. Just got out of Alfheim.
That Castlevania double pack for 4 bucks is a must for me. Probably gonna pull the trigger on a good number of these within the next couple weeks!!
These sales seem to be a lot more interesting than what I’ve seen on Xbox last couple years. But that could just be my naïveté talking, as I’m pretty new to the current PS ecosphere
First episode is phenomenal. Haven’t played TLoU in years but this is triggering my nostalgia in such a way that I think I’m gonna have to make a run through both games after I finish up Miles Morales.
My ps5’s power supply took a dump on me (after having it for like 24 days) so I’m playing mostly Persona 5 Royal on my Series S and a load of Marvel Snap.
Gonna send it in for repair (already got the pre-paid box n all that) Monday.
Whilst I own all those Far Cry games on Xbox I’ve never given those particular ones a go.
This’ll be a nice way to experience those titles, if I ever get around to it. Nice additions, all, particularly the Middle Earth titles. Those are both wonderful games!
Excellent picks. I’m gonna have to check each of them out for sure. Especially the Stanley Parable…it just looks so much more different than anything I’ve ever played
Hoping to see Odin Sphere Leifthrasir back on sale, as I didn’t have the 10 bucks last time. I also wouldn’t mind that new Valkyrie game getting a steep discount.
If nothing else maybe I’ll grab Persona Dancing in Moonlight before the current sale is off and check that out (while my wife wonders what on earth has taken hold of me)
Let’s see…. Been playing a good deal of Marvel SNAP! Especially during evenings after a long workday when I don’t want to commit to holding a lovely controller in my hands. I can throw on reruns of Anthony Bourdain shows and have these little nibbles of gaming. It’s excellent, and you can legit still be pretty competitive without sinking money into it. I just wish the season passes were longer than a month, since I don’t think I’m gonna be forming over 10 bucks every 4 weeks. We’ll see though.
Vampire Survivots was recently released GRATIS on the android and app stores, so I downloaded that and gave it a go, being as I had a good time with the iteration that’s currently free on GamePass. Well, the touch controls aren’t quite as tight and the characters are super-tiny in my iPhone….so I’ll probably stick with getting my VS fix on Xbox. I finished up spiderman yesterday and wow….what a game. If I hadn’t played Elden Ring earlier this year, Spider-Man would definitely be the best game I’ve played. Probably going to dive into Miles Morales and go all the way through that before Christmas…that 10-hour finish time is definitely tempting.
I hope you’re all well and staying warm. Happy Holidays!
Playing through Spider-Man (2018), the complete edition available through PS+ Premium. The gameplay loop has me hooked, and traversal hasn’t felt this good since I played Infamous waaaay back in the day. Gonna try and start Midnight Sons but who knows.
I’d started a new play through of Bloodborne and begun Demons Souls for the first time but throughout the week my appetite for them tapered off. I’ll resume eventually but for now I’m wrapped up in Marvel stuff.
Oh and I’ve been playing a good amount of Marvel SNAP. After working through the season pass I’m still pretty hooked; 6 turns and the match is over. Makes it super easy to consume throughout the day.

Re: Poll: Did You Buy the Dead Space PS5 Remake?
@themightyant this 100 %. Was it you that recommended I do the plasma cutter only run over at pure Xbox? That was fun.

Re: Microsoft Summons Sony to FTC's Activision Blizzard Court Hearing
@stvevan this is the best take I’ve seen thus far.
Both have indeed looked like c****.

Re: Poll: Did You Buy Monster Hunter Rise on PS5, PS4?
I own it on Switch (where I think I played about 4 hours of it) and it’s on my Series S via Gamepass.
In spite of that I’ll probably buy it on ps when it hits 20.
That’s my magic number. 20 dollars.
Re: Persona 3 Portable (PS4) - Brooding JRPG Is Still Superb
@tselliot agreed. That’s probably my next tech purchase.

@AndyKazama does the game give you a good grasp on the anime’s plot? Interested.
Re: Try Gotham Knights for Free in New PS Plus Premium Trial
@ChronoBreak777 same. I have it on series S, still holding out hope.
Re: Destiny 2: Lightfall Will Take Guardians to a Neon City on Neptune
I like the neon aesthetic and all that but I can’t fathom pulling myself back in for another expansion.
Gonna wait for Destiny 3….is that a thing? Destiny 3 I mean
Re: Random: Rapper Logic 'Conned' His Way into The Last of Us Part II
Pretty cool.
Logic seems like a nice person. Glad he got to be associated with something outside of music that he clearly loves.
Re: The Last of Us HBO Pulls in 4.7 Million Viewers, Second Biggest Debut Since 2010
First episode is phenomenal. Haven’t played TLoU in years but this is triggering my nostalgia in such a way that I think I’m gonna have to make a run through both games after I finish up Miles Morales.
Midnight Suns gets put on hold yet again lol
Re: Persona 3 Portable (PS4) - Brooding JRPG Is Still Superb
I feel like this particular version of P3, for me anyway, is best experienced on a handheld.
I’m getting all misty thinking about my long-dead PSP now.
Re: TV Show Review: The Last of Us (HBO) Episode 1 - Faithful Retelling Deviates in the Right Ways
Show is pretty good thus far. Hope everyone enjoys!
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for January 2023?

Excellent game. I hope you get as absorbed in it as I was
Re: When Will Sony Unwrap PS5, PS4's Annual January Sale on PS Store?
January Sale, you say? This will be my first.

Re: Elden Ring Adds Competitive Colosseums for Free This Week
@doctommaso I liked the lore behind those bosses more than the fights but they’re still really good fights.
Re: Elden Ring Adds Competitive Colosseums for Free This Week
@rjejr chasing the dumb Elden Beast around put me off a second play through. Had to cheese it with insect needles or whatnot, can’t recall the name rn

@Zuljaras the Castlevania games (aside from being some of the best games around) had some dope cover artwork.
Enjoy!!
