Love both games, Can't wait for the third one. I still need to get the Ps5 upgrade for the original and play it on my PS5, maybe something to do over the Christmas holidays!
I haven't played anything for a bit. Need to jump back into Silksong. Focusing more on reading (just started Dungeon crawler carl). I'm on an anime binge. I've only 7 episodes left of Demon Slayer, before im all caught up and have to wait for the movies. I also picked up my favourite all time t.v. show on blu-ray (Farscape) can't wait to start watching that again 😀.
Will mostly be out spending time with my Mrs. Out for food and to see Black Phone 2.
My old t.v. had become unwatchable, so bought a new proper 4K one. My previous one was almost 10 years old. I have a lot of games to replay now that will look like totally different with my new one.
Hopefully I'll get more of Silksong done but no doubt I'll put on some powerhouse games just to gawk at the imagery. Wish I'd upgraded sooner but the t.v. I had worked fine.
Silksong is still my main game. I want to try and do everything and see everything the game has to offer. I'm still on Act 2. Put in about 120 hours so far. I've beaten 18 bosses, I have 7 lined up and I'm convinced there is still more of the map to uncover. I refuse to look at guides unless im banging my head against a wall.
Besides Silksong I've been playing Yooka-Replaylee, Celeste and Nuclear Blaze.
I'll still be playing Silksong but have also started playing Celeste again. Almost got 100 strawberries after beating the main game back in 2020 im hooked on getting 100% now. Also Ori and the will of the wisps on Switch.
@ApostateMage I had considered doing the same. My wife keeps asking if im going through a midlife crisis in my 40's🤣. I used to be great on rollerblades but threw them in the back of the wardrobe after a horrible fall. I may take that up again. Hope you have a speedy recovery.
I haven't bought a £70 game in some time. I will now wait for a decent sale on games like that before I buy. Indies though I will snap up. Games £25 and under like Shinobi/Silksong were bought the day/week of release.
More Silksong for me. I beat First Sinner last night. Everyone seems to complain about the runbacks but I don't mind them. Gives you a chance to change your build and maybe go elsewhere. With First Sinner I didn't get that option, the game forced me into taking her out without any tools. I feel like Neo in the Matrix when I finally see patterns and go toe to toe with the bosses. As when you first encounter them they seem ridiculously impossible only for you to take them out no problem several attempts later.
I'm not a sports fan really, but I miss snowboarding games. Would love to see a new SSX or Amped I would spend hours on ending playing those and blasting music in my bedroom back in the day. Glad Silksong is doing great though, I love that game.
This weekend I'll continue playing Silksong. I beat 'The Last Judge' about an hour ago. What a rush. Might find something else to change it up a little.
@Hurblyburbly keep at it. I'm sure you will hit a breakthrough at some point. Always plenty to do and explore if you get tired of fighting her. I'm looking forward to my many attempts.
Silksong, I've reached the door of the citadel. I could have done that ages ago but I've been thoroughly exploring everywhere else. Before I take on the Last Judge, I may try my hand at a couple of what seem like optional bosses and a mini game in the Marrow.
Last night I 100% Shinobi: Art of Vengeance, a handful of trophies left to get the platinum but they are tied to the arcade and boss rush modes, I'll dive into those down the line at somepoint. Excellent game I highly recommend it for action fans.
Also last night I beat Sister Splinter in Silksong. Had a bazillion attempts, as when I first run into her I thought impossible too much stuff going on. Only to take her down later without getting hit. I felt like an unstoppable god, glorious. Will probably explore more later today with my new wall climbing ability, the map is really starting to open up now. Fantastic game! @Jrs1 brilliant game, are you going for the platinum? I'll do it another time as an excuse to keep playing.
@Czar_Khastik. I must get around to it at somepoint, keep hearing great things.
I finished Epic Mickey yesterday and I beat Traitor Lord in Hollow Knight, bumped it up from 88% to 93% after not having played it in ages. I also started Shinobi and it's excellent, I've beat 3 bosses so far.
On Switch I restarted Ori and the will of the wisps and did the arena battles in Sea of Stars.
Looking forward to it. I recently started playing Hollow Knight again. I left it at 88% done but have now got to 93% after getting a few more collectables and defeating Traitor Lord. Screw that guy!
A lot of people must have watched a different SoP from me. Loads of great games shown here, I know not everyone plays all genres of games and art is subjective and all that but to call it bad. 🤔
I've been wanting to play a platformer, So I'm playing 3 different ones. Epic Mickey rebrushed, Psychonauts 2 and Yooka-Laylee: The Impossible lair. Also still playing FFVI, Sekiro and Cuphead. Too many games and not enough time.
Lovely day here in Aberdeen, so the Mrs and I were out sorting the garden from 9am-2pm. Been to Tesco for tonight's munchies. I will watch some t.v. or a movie with my Mrs and then some Cuphead & Sekiro. Only Wally Warbles to beat on Isle 2 before I can go to Isle 3 and in Sekiro I'm in a misty woodlands trying to access a temple.
After finishing Red Dead Redemption last weekend, I have jumped back into Sekiro. When I last played it I had beaten the Chained Ogre and left it there. Now I'm on Lady Butterfly & Ashina Reservoir. So have done a good bit since picking it up again. Also got the platinum for The Last Campfire as a break from Sekiro last night. I received Armoured Core 6 in the post as well, never played a mech game before but am really curious, as I love them in anime and other media!
I finished my first ever playthrough of Red Dead Redemption. Fantastic game, I played RDR2 when it first came out. I wonder if they will ever do a 3rd one!
Everything seems fine to me. In the NE of Scotland. I only know because a colleague WhatsApped me about it saying she hoped I had a good book. Funnily enough all I've been doing lately is reading 📚.
I reached chapter 8 in Lost Judg(e)ment last night. Most definitely playing more tonight as the story has taken a dark turn. Not that it wasn't already!
One of my all time favourite games. Don't think it would have quite the same impact from just viewing it. Really hit me when I found out the Colossi were harmless!
I'm currently playing Lost Judgement, Nine Sols & Hades on PS5 & on Switch Ori & the blind forest & Golf Story.
I picked up a few games in the sales. Red Dead Redemption, Mass Effect Legendary edition, Imp of The Sun on PS5 & Katana Zero & Pepper Grinder on Switch. Not back to work until the 3rd, so hopefully get some quality gaming & reading time as well as a cinema trip to see Nosferatu!
I haven't gamed properly in ages, now I'm finding myself playing quite a few. On PS5 Lost Judgement 2, FFVI remastered and Nine Sols. On Switch Tiny Thor, Sword of the Vagrant and Golf Story!
Apart from infrequently booting up my PS5 to play It Takes Two, with my niece, which we finally finished last weekend. I started Scarlet Nexus last night. So maybe more of that later.
Other than that I'll be watching The Godfather with my Mrs and continuing with reading Death By Water.
I'm happy to keep my original PS5. That and the Switch OLED are probably my final consoles. It will take some pretty innovative games, to keep me gaming into the future. VR still has a way to go and live service isn't for me. Need some new genres or some really exciting game mechanics.

Re: Mini Review: Yooka-Replaylee (PS5) - A Second Draft Worthy of the Banjo-Kazooie Comparisons
I backed the original as I was a huge Rare fan during the N64 and early Xbox days. £15 is a good deal will pick it up.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 597
I've reached the final boss in Shinobi 🥷 Art of Vengeance but clearing up the stages before I take him on.
Also Silksong, loving the game. I beat the Bell Beast and now just exploring.
I might play a bit of the Lost Judgement DLC as I'm a couple of chapters into that as well.
Have a great weekend everyone.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Hollow Knight: Silksong?
I couldn't help myself and started playing. I got to the first wee place then had Hornet sit on the bench. Already can tell it's going to be great.
Re: 7 Years in the Making, Hollow Knight: Silksong Is Out Now on PS5, PS4
I'll download it, but I might finish Shinobi first before I play it. I have a free weekend next week, so that could be a Silksong weekend!

Re: Expect to Pay $20 for Hollow Knight: Silksong on PS5, PS4
