Resident evil 8 was awesome, loved how each section of the game had its own feel, and the open area in the middle was just the right size to explore without becoming boring. I think I just about prefer 7 but there’s not much in it, glad to see resident evil back on form.
I considered buying it but I was hesitant hearing that it was a tough one to get into. I think I’ll wait for a sale but my interest is there; haven’t played a fighting game in a good while.
Struggled to pick 5, and out of the five I picked 4 of them I played on other platforms. Pyschonauts 2 is my favourite from the list but little nightmares 2 is my actual goty.
Hopefully finish Guardians (just in time for the new ray tracing mode). Halo and Forza will be my chill/social games for the foreseeable future. Just picked up Pikmin 3 deluxe on switch after enjoying the demo. Looking for other games on sale, thinking either hitman 3, Fenyx Rising, Divinity original sin 2, Tails of Iron or Maybe Tales of Arise if the demo is good.
My favourite console (maybe tied with game boy and possible switch depending on how its final few years go). Pretty good list, some of my top picks missing but overall nothing too scary.
Like most years my personal goty isn’t nominated (little nightmares 2) or even most of my top ten this year which will make things difficult to vote. Out of the ones there I think I’ll vote for Psychonauts 2 with Dread as a runner up.
Like most of the time I’m doubtful my personal goty will even get nominated. So far it’s little nightmares 2. Thought the silent and interactive story telling in it was superb. And it’s art direction was inspired. My other favourite games would be Psychonauts 2, Forza Horizon 5, Metroid Dread and surprisingly Guardians of the galaxy, took a while for that game to click but the characters above all else won me over.
Finally got one around 2 months ago. Now that I’ve finished ratchet, sack boy and Astro bot I’m struggling to find a reason to turn it on. I’m not spending £70 or even close to that on a game I’ve played over ten years ago (demons souls) and I’m not a rogue like fan so that’s returnal out the window. I did get miles morales with the ps5 and I think I’ll save that for my Xmas break (need something to play then) and I got guardians on the go which is I guess is a decent filler game. Both my series s and switch seem to be getting more use recently but next year hopefully GOW will launch (main reason I got the console) and hopefully a good last of us multiplayer experience and Elden ring so things are looking up.
That took for ever… but a fun look back at the system. I can tell it was the console of my teenage years with the amount of 10/10’s I gave it. Nostalgia is strong with this one!
Never been huge into gta (red dead was always my rockstar game), I missed the ps2 era trilogy and v didn’t really do much for me, but 4 was my favourite by far. I liked the story more than v and the online was fun back then with friends. Don’t know if I’d replay it but I think it would be cool to give the game a second life.
Not a bad game. Didn’t leave anywhere near the same impact on me as lbp but it was still a good discount buy, enjoyable especially in co-op. Actually wouldn’t mind some sort of expansion pack for it, an excuse to jump back in to try all these additional skins (which I hope they keep adding)
The best thing about it was that there was more Sully.
The second best part was the amount of awesome set pieces, it’s like they went “the train level from 2 was so great, let’s just do something like that for every level.”
Also glad to see people talking positively about the multiplayer, good times
Was contemplating buying guardians of the galaxy but I’m not so sure about the combat. The (first world) problem if I don’t is that the next big budget ps5 release I’d be interested in won’t be until February next year, and I haven’t bought a ps5 game in a little while, it’s just kind of sitting there waiting. Hopefully something like stray or little devil inside launches this year.
The Ezio trilogy and black flag are my favourites (with origins just coming up short). Unity, 1 and 3 come close but didn’t have enough polish to be great.

Hopefully they just delay the game and embrace the CHAOS!
