5. Cult of the Lamb - 53 hours and still playing

@AdamNovice I think Hogwarts Legacy was the best selling game of the year that came and not CoD.

Vaati should release an audio book version. He has the calmest voice on Youtube I've heard.

@charbtronic Yeah it has been great so far. I got the soundbar and then I eventually added some rear speakers and a sub. I like how you have different models depending on your budget. I had an ancient 2.1 system before, so wouldn't have take a great deal to notice an improvement.

@charbtronic I use a mixture of both. Headphones if I game in the mornings (don't wanna be too much of nuisance for my neighbours) or mulitplayer games.

All other times I use my Sonos surround system. It might just be me, but I find that so much more immersive than headphones, which always makes me feel more enclosed.

@Th3solution Only used the for an hour so last night, but there already seems to be a noticeable improvement on my previous headset.

Mind you there was a substantial update to Battlefield 6 yesterday, so might have something to do with that.

@SuperSilverback Nice one mate.

The new modes do not sound like they are for me, as I prefer the larger scale modes. Good for those that are though and cool the the games is being supported close to launch.

Will the new maps be available for the other modes, or just the new ones?

9/10 for me and I've only played the MP. Played a mixture of Conquest, Breakthrough, Escalation and Rush. One of those modes (Escalation) actually expandes the map a bit and you start further back then is available in Conquest.

I've not got this into a MP for a few years, and can't wait to go home and play it each night!

It can be brutal and some games we have been absolutely destroyed lol. But still enjoy most times regardless of the out come.

The amount you can customise the game is also cool. Yellow enemy indicators FTW!

It has been great so far, although some matches have been brutal. And Support players not reviving even though no enemy troops near by. Don't recall seeing bots, but only played Conquest. Have noticed quite a few squads of clans, who are usually highly ranked.

I bought this on PS4 years ago and never played it. I have an itch to play somthing like this, but totally forget about it. Will be a good time to finally give it a go.

@PrettyPawsome Yeah that was a cool one, running through the nests with a flame thrower was awesome!

Had a few games yesterday and it feels like older BF games to me. Has me hooked.

Waiting to see how the multiplayer holds up and maybe getting it at some point.

Been burnt too many times, so am wary of jumping in so near launch.

Yeah this looks ace, love the toons too.

@Jrs1 @Voltan Wasn't the first Alan Wake game remastered not long ago? That version could be played and I don't think the game will take that long to beat, if people wanted to.

I will most likely get Alan Wake 2 Deluxe Edition as it is under 20 quid, and I have some PS store credit.

Love a Austin Wintory soundtrack! Thought The Pathless was awesome, so will defo be giving this a go, maybe after I'm finished with Lies of P.

@get2sammyb I heard it from my auntie's cousins boyfriend who knows a cleaner, who cleans out a parrots cage at Arc System Works. True story.

Ordered a DualSense last night. Was gutted i missed them last time, so am chuffed i managed to snag one.

I had this as my avatar for most of last season, but didn't realise it was Jota. Will be changing back as a mark of respect. RIP Diogo.

@get2sammyb Have you not heard? Games do not exist unless they are published and developed by Sony.

@JonnyAces Hit the nail on the head there, that is exactly how I feel about it too.

My PS+ expires on the 10th June after the 5 days extra, so I am just able to scrap a renewed sub at a discount. Phew!

@heavyartillery56 On partnership with X box and those fridges they sold.

@Ravix You forgot My Name is Mayo:Remayo from your GOTY list.

@Fight_Teza_Fight I'm also tempted to get Ghost of Yotei for my birthday as it releases the day after mine!

Damn, I really need to get to Journey to the Savage Planet. I've been putting it off for ever know.

Playing this at the moment and it's rather good! I saw that the update downloaded earlier and noticed that the menus and UI looked a bit different.

I would like extend to you an invitation to the pants party.

@MFTWrecks Yeah I agree. As much as I loved the game, getting the Platinum was such ball ache. I usually give up Platinum trophies when they are like that, but Returnal was so damn good to play, I couldn't stop myself.

Can't wait for this, could even be a rare day one purchase for me.

I've got a small lamp which makes the PS1 startup sound when switched on. Currenlty resides under my PS5 in my TV stand, next to two other PS themed lamps. #notafanboy

Should have come with a free golf club lol.

Liked the look of this ever since I first saw it. Hopefully there will be news of a PS5 version soon.

Loved Control, technical issues aside on PS4. I never did play the Ultimate edition when came to PS Plus with the dlc, as I had only recently completed the game and there is no way to transfer your saves.

@Mikey856 It is like when I first played a Sega game on a Nintendo console. Didn't feel right, almost alien lol.

@ShogunRok I think you went a bit overboard with the puns in comment #15.

Just finished the first season and thought it was excellent. Can't wait until season 2 and not tooong to wait!

Hmmmm, didnt realise the director was the map designer for Dark Souls. To date that is my favourite designed world in these games. Still, I shall wait until reviews as I've had a mixed history with rogue lites/likes and games designed with co-op play at the forefront.

In my best fantasy slop voice - 'Eeeeew, all the trashy games are gone from the PS store. Where am I gonna get my easy platinum fix?!'

I didn't even notice until Saturday afternoon when the welcome hub thingy was FUBAR. I was still able to play Ender Lillies so it was all good for me.

I'm the same as @Member_the_game, and am unable to stack subscriptions. Last time the dates did not align, I bought 3 months or monthly subscriptions and then let it expire when they were on sale.

I seem to be back online now. Hurrah!

I'll be lucky to finish one in under 100 hours. Witcher 3 took me over 400 to finish (with no dlc) and Elden Ring + Shadow dlc took me over 600.

I enjoyed what I played of the first game, albeit only the first couple of hours. Hopefully will get back to that soon, and if I end up liking it till the end, this will be on my radar.

Usually do the PS+ stuff for coins and have gotten a few 5 quid vouchers. I don't buy that many games these days so don't accumulate a great deal of points.

When dreams come true... this was a pleasant surprise to wake up to. I predict it will be a PS6 launch game at the earliest though.
