@TheArt it took me over 120 hours to beat the game and most of its content and I still didn’t want to stop playing. You’re in for a good, immersive time.

Saints Row The Third Remastered on PS5. It’s still a fun game today and you can’t go wrong for £4.99! The updated graphics look good too and it runs at a constant 60fps no matter how many explosions there are. I originally bought it to play co-op but my brother and I couldn’t connect so I decided to continue it on my own. My only other problem is that the HDR is way too dark and even maxing out the games brightness doesn’t really fix it.

I’ve been playing BF2042 on and off since launch and I still enjoy it today. I do think BF4 was the better game (only played BF3 on 360) so I’m hoping this new one is more like that with a big focus on destruction.

I’ve still yet to buy it because of my huge backlog, but I look forward to playing it when I do.

Looks great, but I’m hoping there’s a character creator. These types of games just wouldnt be the same if I can’t create my usual character named Keith, who rocks a lime green afro and a big beard.

Long list of games for me which is unusual.

Farm Together 2 - Starting this later tonight with my girlfriend. We enjoyed the first one quite a bit and this looks to improve on it.

Tales of Arise - This is my main single player game right now and I recommend it to any RPG fan

Grand Theft Auto V - Might jump into the multiplayer which I’ve been really enjoying recently. Once you get a business and a way to earn a good amount of money the game really opens up. Plus the casino is addictive.

System Shock 2 Anniversary Remaster - Started this co-op with my brother and we weren’t really sure what to expect. We then continued to play it for 2 and a half hours. It definitely hasn’t aged to well, but it’s still fun to play. Shame all the trophies are tied to the single player mode though.

Beyond Galaxyland - Haven’t played it for too long but I love the art style and the story seems interesting so far. Look forward to playing it more.

@Propaperpusher you dropped your tin foil hat

@Lowdefal I agree, it’s absolutely ridiculous. Imagine missing out on a game you really want to play because you’ve noticed one trophy that might be unobtainable.

I’ll miss having the odd £5 every so often and spending it in the sales 🙁

@Frmknst In the UK it was originally £39.99 right up until release and now it’s suddenly £44.99. I’m really interested in the game, but I’ll wait for a sale.

@rjejr Just consider the live stream a trailer of sorts and there’s nothing to complain about

I’m hoping for new game plus. Specifically so I can get the ten out of ten trophy without buying Phantom Liberty or spending ages roaming the map looking for random groups of enemies to shoot.

I remember when I used to buy Call of Duty every year and genuinely enjoy them. I’ve lost interest now and haven’t played any since Black Ops Cold War which I got when the PS5 released.

I must be one of the few people who enjoyed Gotham Knights. For £10 it’s actually a pretty good co-op experience.

Just started a game called Blacktail. Knew nothing going into it really, other than it having a good store rating. But for £7 I figured I’d go in blind and so far it’s actually really good.

Also might have another go on Darkwood. I played the prologue and the atmosphere is really unsettling (Especially with headphones at max volume). Apparently it’s a difficult game though, which is somewhat off putting!

I’ll be cracking on with Cyberpunk which is taking a while because I’m doing all the gigs and side stories as I go. A huge part of me wants to continue with the main story, but I think all the side stuff is really good too.

Also got back into GTA5 multiplayer which is more enjoyable in a private game with friends. At least then you’re not getting killed by randoms every 10 seconds.

This is a good decision. I found RE8 and the RE2, 3 and 4 remakes to be highly replayable because of the fairly small, linear structure. I’m hoping 9 will be the same.

I’ll get it at some point but I’m currently playing through Cyberpunk at the moment. But it does look amazing and I really enjoyed the original.

If they don’t show Darksiders I will be disappointed. Recently beat the second one and it still holds up.

I highly recommend it. Playing with a group of people all using mics is hilarious yet extremely tense, especially with proximity chat and some good headphones. It’s really one of those games you need to try before forming an opinion because the trailers will never do it justice.

@Perturbator I bought that and just couldn’t get into it because of the terrible performance (even on pro). Shame really, because there’s a good game under the poor optimisation.

Looking forward to no scoping some heads in multiplayer!

Not a problem for me. The game is turn based anyways.

@StuDogg yeah that was the most interesting game and it isn’t even coming to PS5

For a game called Screamer, the racing and track design didn’t look very exciting!

I think it’s the animations that make me question the game most. Everything was just too smooth for a game. It was still the highlight of the show for me though, but I also really enjoyed Scorn!

Assuming that was actual gameplay, ILL is my most anticipated game from the showing. I thought the RE9 reveal was underwhelming to be honest.

Big fan of the game. Curious what they’ll do

Giving V Rising a go and so far it’s really good! It’s a survival, crafting, base building game for anyone wondering, where your goal is to strengthen up your vampire character enough to work your way through 50+ bosses. You even have to stick to the shadows during the day otherwise the sun will slowly burn you to death

Actually looking forward to this!

@McBurn I find it simple yet still extremely satisfying. But I’ve always enjoyed numbers flying around the screen when I attack. With the Paladin life you can block (R1) and parry (R1 at the right time) with your shield as well as dodging (X). You have the basics, like a normal attack (Square) and strong attack (Triangle). Holding square charges up an attack that sends a sort of shock wave out that can hit far away enemies. Plus there’s a bar that builds up letting you use a special slice attack by pressing L1+Triangle. There might be more I’m forgetting or haven’t unlocked yet.

@Slayer25c Having beat the game I can tell you that a lot of the end game items and highest level gear will require you to grind level ups and also items/resources to make them.

I use my reward points to buy cheap games in the sales that I wouldn’t normally buy. So I’m gonna miss it

Continuing my play through of Fantasy Life I. 23 hours so far and the game is just really good. Nice to be playing an upbeat relaxing game after beating Kingdom Come 2! Highly recommend it.

@Ralizah there was a patch yesterday that apparently lets you still keep track and collect items for any side quests or life challenges you have before starting multiplayer. So that’s something at least. It’s just a shame the sessions are timed and you can’t start new quests while playing with friends.

It would be better if you could just freely explore all the islands without a time limit

11 hours here and while the multiplayer mode is a huge disappointment, the single player is hugely entertaining! It’s nice to play something so colourful and upbeat for a change.

I played co-op with my brother and at first we really enjoyed it. Good production value, great graphics, cutscenes and voice acting. Plus the shooting and traversal was satisfying. You can tell the developers really did try, but man did the game get repetitive towards the end.

Im curious about it and if the entirety of the game and all its content is multiplayer. Might be fun

@PlatinumMikey I don’t know much about hardcore mode but my actual game playtime is 100 hours (82% trophies) and PlayStation says 126 hours. So that’s 26 hours of restarting due to deaths or mistakes, so yeah I expect hardcore mode will lengthen the play time quite a bit unless you know exactly what you’re doing

I just finished the game after putting 126 hours into it. You’d think I’d want to move on but this dlc is very tempting!

I beat it over the weekend and it was a very good game. The graphics and story are what will keep you playing as the gameplay is very simple. Theres a few big areas with branching path ways that you have to tackle in the order the game decides but most of it is quite linear. There’s also no experimenting with the enemy encounters as there’s usually a set way to get through them all. Took me about 5 hours but there are collectibles that will extend that.

@Frmknst What games do you actually enjoy? If any…

A game just needs to be fun with a gripping story in my opinion. It doesn’t need to push boundaries or be revolutionary. I’ve just beaten Oblivion and am continuing with my Kingdom Come 2 playthrough which I’ve been playing for over 100 hours. Sometimes it’s nice to play a game with more simplistic gameplay and a smaller scope and I’m looking forward to it.

The ability to use your blade like a helicopter and fly around the map.

8 for me. It’s still a great game but having got the platinum today I was just wanting it to end towards the end. The cities and countryside are great to walk around and I enjoyed all the quest dialog with the npc’s but I just couldn’t be bothered with doing the same looking cave/ruin over and over again.

I don’t know if Rockstar have said anything about the game being single player only. But maybe two characters will mean 2-player co-op!

The only game I’m interested in is Ark but I already own that. Also, seeing as how the two other games are not my cup of tea, although still being good games I’m gonna say no… I’m not happy and ps plus is a waste of money. Unsubscribed!

Ark gets a lot of hate, but it’s definitely one of my fav survival games along with 7 days. I’ve been playing it on pro and it looks really good (Aside from the LOD of all the tiny rocks on the beach which pop up right infront of you). Once you get into the taming and start properly upgrading your base it gets really addictive. We had to pay for a server for MP though because if you host a session yourself anyone who joins is tethered to the host. This means you can’t all go off and explore the whole island on your own and have to stay together.

@djlard I don’t play online much, but I get more immersed in single player games when the sound is wrapped all around my head.

I really like the art style and I also really enjoyed Hunt. I put too many hours into it and at no point did I think to myself that hunt should be a free to play game. I bought it for £30 and have definitely got my moneys worth. I bought God of War Ragnarok for about £60 and played it once. So I don’t get the argument that any game should be free to play. Especially a game that if it clicks with you, you will definitely be putting more hours into it than any single player game.
