Clair Obscur on GamePass. The world and monster design and general art direction in this game never fails to amaze me ! GOTY without doubt.
Hours to be played on Battlefield 6 ..Conquest mode is still the greatest multiplayer mode ever known to man. Brilliant.
Also trying to crack on in the amazing Ass Creed Shadows ..a 1000 times better than Valhalla
Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️
Only Battlefield 6 on XBX ALL weekend, 24/7....put a few hours in so far and loving it. And jeez, it is brutal! Im a seasoned player on every iteration since 1942, and this is unforgiving and it's brilliant for it. Not touched the campaign and probably never will. Had no bugs, no "server queues" at all. Im looking forward to see how the game evolves. Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️
Nobody buys Battlefield for the campaign surely ? The previous campaigns were mediocre at best, not that I ever finished one. Multiplayer only for me, this one looks like a return to form
Being blown away still by Clair Obscur Expedition 33 on GamePass (sorry 😅) a game fully deserving it's reputation. Utterly brilliant. More Tempest Rising on PC - the best RTS in years, bringing the golden years back ! Going to restart and commit to System Shock 2 Remastered on PC - still one of the best games ever made. It really is a great time to be a gamer ! Enjoy, guys ❤️
@Northern_munkey I do buy digitally a lot, I will buy BF6 digitally but I'll hopefully persuade the wife to buy me it for Xmas ha ha. But recently I've bought MGS 3 Delta, Silent Hill f physical special editions. Pricing hasn't really bothered me before but even im holding back and refusing!
As good a game as Tsushima was, it was faaarrr from being perfect. Repetitive open world filler - fox shrines and random duels im looking at you - and even downright boring and dull in places. Fantastic looking game though. I'll play Yutei eventually when I've cleared my huge backlog a bit
@nessisonett ...Hi. Have you found buying current gen games, with prices creeping up around £70+ has affected your purchases much ? Are you buying a lot less than before ? I've been lucky so far in being able to purchase a lot of games Day 1 and using GamePass a LOT, but even im looking at Ghost of Yotei and BF6 with their prices and thinking "SCREW THAT, NOT A CHANCE"
Two amazing games that ive been looking forward to start on the go this weekend - Cyberpunk Phantom Liberty on PS5, just as brilliant as the main game. I think I'll literally replay these games forever. I have a new favourite pistol that talks to me eg. when I reload it says "ah thanks, choom!".....that will NEVER get old 😅
Plus I finally started the utterly brilliant Clair Obscur Expedition 33 on GamePass. Been holding off but this game thoroughly deserves its reputation- i didnt think it would be THIS good ! Only just finished the early Flowing Waters level ...this will certainly be GOTY I'm sure. Brilliant.
Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️
Back into Diablo 2 Resurrected still a wonderful game and so much more hardcore than 3 or 4. Even navigation is difficult! Hoping to finally finish and mop up Death Stranding then onto the 2nd. A masterpiece of a game. Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️
Nothing else but MGS 3 Delta ....gonna take out The End in 1 minute 🤣 and not by changing the date !
Loved this game back in the day. Did 8 playthroughs ! And 6 of MGS 4
Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️
@Jammer this game is leagues ahead of Resistance - i played both on release and the first Resistance FOM is utter ***** in comparison. And this was out way earlier
@mac_da_man I seem to be the only person who LOVED Hellblade 2....I loved the depressing, dank, dark atmosphere and how cinematic the whole game was. Not played the upgrade yet but certainly will
Playing and enjoying Mafia The Old Country - i understand the criticisms of its basic gameplay and it is basic indeed but im loving the overall vibe and presentation Replaying the greatest RTS ever made in Dawn Of War Remastered Definitive Edition ...superb, Relic in their prime, bringing back memories of this game taking over my life in 2004. Gonna take new character Sagat ( crazy that he's DLC ) online in Streetfighter 6 for a few bouts Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️
@Colour ....that's a great solution right there - close the studio ! Put all them talented people out of work, just to satisfy the teenage whims of entitled gamers !
I don't really think any of them need remastering tbh....still as playable as they ever were. DA2 looks great on XBX - yes for sure they'd look a lot better if remastered, but no real need
Trying to clear my (huge) backlog by focusing on some lesser known, lower profile games that I've been sat on for years So, finished the Onimusha Warlords remaster - forgot how great this game was in its PS2 heyday. Brilliant Should finish Rogue Trooper Redux - a VERY basic but enjoyable shooter but once played, best forgotten.. I'll also complete SOMA but haven't really been that into it, it's merely ok ....Still Wakes The Deep did it all a 1000 times better Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️
Hoping to finish the wonderful Death Stranding on PS5 so I can buy and devour the 2nd one. Had a real love / hate relationship with it but love it now. Bonkers and brilliant. Playing Command & Conquer 4 Tiberian Twilight on PC along with System Shock 2 Remastered - one of the all time greats. Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️
@Balaam_ ...i can't imagine why anyone would play a Battlefield game (or any game really) just for Trophies. Imagine never playing a Mario or Zelda game because there's no Trophy list.
Did you ever play games before Achievements or Trophies were a thing ?
@Zuljaras ...the STALKER games are great, but nothing like Fallout really. They're very much old school PC survival shooters, can be very difficult and obtuse but are superb. The recent STALKER 2 is utterly brilliant
Hoping to finish the superb Avowed on GamePass, such a great fantasy RPG set in the Pillars Of Eternity universe. Also just finished Onimusha Warlords on PS4 - such great nostalgic memories of playing this on PS2 back in the day, even some of the horrific puzzles ! Also gonna dabble in online scraps in MK1 and Streetfighter 6 ...tune in to watch me getting my fat ass kicked ! Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️
Trying to finish Death Stranding on PS5 as im itching to.play the 2nd although I have a love / hate relationship with the 1st. I'm also taking a vow to complete Avowed on XBX - a very good game, it's literally The Outer Worlds in a fantasy setting. Worth playing when it comes to PS5, as it undoubtedly will. Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️
@arsmolinarc ....the developers are Ukrainian. But the game was made in Prague, where they're now based. Although 2 of the development team were killed, choosing to defend their country
This game is fantastic. A truly immersive, hardcore, PC style survival shooter. Its been patched to high heaven and runs superbly on XBX now. I've completed it twice and looking forward to many more playthroughs. It kicks Atomfalls arse too lol !
