After 166hrs I finally got the Platinum for the excellent Diablo III last Sunday. Thoroughly enjoyed it and want to play the 2nd but gonna hold off for a bit. I’ve just bought The Witcher 3 as never played it before. Liking what I’ve played so far albeit just doing small quests to get used to it. Balatro of course (61% so far) and I’ve started playing Warhammer Boltgun for some mindless gun violence 😂 A lot of football and usual family shenanigans as well! Have a great gaming weekend Pushsquarians! 🍻
This weekend I’m gonna be grinding out the Platinum on Diablo III (need two more trophies). Loving the Necromancer character, didn’t like it to begin with but with the explosive corpses skill I’m cruising to the level 70. Wanna try to get back into Silent Hill F but with the Premier league back and beer it’s going to be difficult 😂 Tried fixing my son’s awful stick drift the other day and I failed miserably, now the right stick permanently points up 🤣 luckily there’s Black Friday sales so may get a cheaper price 🤞
Been looking at getting a 60GB PS3 this week, mine died years ago but the games were so good and I wanted my son to experience some of them. When he was younger he loved Blur as the game was just Mario kart but real cars. Infamous 1 and 2, Motorstorm etc (there’s so many) so I really hope this gets going!
This weekend I’m mixing it up as need to try different games. First it’s EA WRC. Been trying it out this week and I still suck at rally games but going to persevere with it. Secondly it’ll be Alien Isolation as got into it to begin with yonks ago but forgot everything as other games took over so will start again. Thirdly will be my first attempt at a Battle Royale game in Battlefield Redsec. Don’t know if I’m ready for fast paced FPS Multiplayer since I’ve not played anything like it since the original MW2. Diablo 3 and Balatro will always be in there somewhere as well 😂.
Curry, football and maybe a beer or two Saturday night!
After 18hrs I got the Platinum the Robocop: Rogue City in the week so that’s one of my back log done. I’ll be playing the excellent Diablo 3 as much as I can but unfortunately there’s not a lot of gaming this weekend as pretty busy with a few beers and football, naturally 😂
Getting through Robocop Rogue City slowly at last as I’m trying to get through my back log. My mate sold me Silent Hill 2 remake, AC Mirage and AC Shadows for £50 so I’ve got a few more piling up 😂
Been playing Diablo 3 since 7am this morning. On my second character (crusader) at lvl 38 so pretty much that all day. I’ll be dealing with my relatively small back log of Dead Space Remake, Robocop Rogue City as well on the PS5. Also as the family are away for a few days it’ll be time to get cracking on with Sons of the Forest on the PC. Along with a few beers and football of course now the Premiership is back 👍
All 3 added to library. Got Silent hill F and Diablo 3 on the go at the moment but looking forward to playing these at some point. Excellent month for me as never played either of them.
After 249hrs I’ve finally managed to get the Gold Completionist trophy on Balatro. That pesky Stuntman joker took forever to unlock and ages to discover. Will be playing multiple decks and stakes as always as well as the fantastic Inscryption, absolutely love this game.
I’ve purchased Silent Hill F with its amazing steelbook but that won’t be started until the family are out which is Sunday.
Still chugging on with Diablo III as well, level 16 Barbarian and think these sort of games are amazing. Just wish I discovered the genre years ago.
Along with a few beers and football that’s me sorted ✔️
@CutchuSlow I’m in a similar position with a monitor, PS5 and PC. Got Amazon Basics speakers but have to keep switching the USB depending on which I use. These may be the answer 🤞
After the advice from fellow Pushsqaurians I’ve purchased Diablo III and loving it so far (chose a Barbrian) plus I’m using my Access controller so a bit easier. Balatro as always is still being played and as far as my gaming slump last weekend well, I’m truly out of it by delving into Inscryption! Game is crazy addictive and weird. Beaten the Prospector and the Angler but died and now can’t seem to beat them again so gonna try for the third boss today and tomorrow🤞.
After 149hrs I FINALLY platinumed Diablo IV but now in a ‘what to play slump’ (apart from Balatro of course).
Tried playing Path of Exile to scratch the Diablo itch and it was ok so may continue that. Ragnarok needs my attention as well but gonna be working and taking care of children so doubt that’ll happen 😢.
My PSVR2 mate has asked me to try out a horror game called Afterlife which is based in an abandoned asylum. Pretty sure he just wants me to fall over his sofa screaming 😂.
In between the usual Diablo IV and Balatro I’m gonna be trying Inscryption, looks dark, creepy and damn weird so right up my street.
I recently tried my mates PSVR2 with a game called Red Matter. I was blown away how good it looked and how immersive it is . My mate pressed a button which boosted me forward and I ended up falling back on his sofa 😂. But VR just isn’t for me as I felt disoriented for about an hour afterwards.
And finally, after enjoying Alien:Earth I need to play Isolation, Fireteam etc anything with Xenomorphs in 👍.
1st film became a cult classic and this looks good but having not long finished the excellent remake, this does look a little off. As someone has already said, CGI looks dodgy and James Sunderland? What the hell 😂 I’ll still go and see it but it’ll be leave your brain at the door and enjoy it for what it is with a few beers and popcorn.
Finally beat Gold stake on Balatro so will be trying different decks/challenges later on. Need to get on the PC to finish Half Life 2 and start Sons of the Forest but Balatro and Diablo IV are so bloody addictive 😂.
I’ve made a start on GOW: Ragnarok and my word that game is awesome. Makes me angry I waited so long to play it!
Anyways that’s me sorted for the next 3 days. Have a great gaming weekend Pushsquarians! 🍻
This weekend is mostly family (beer and football) with very little chance of long gaming sessions so it’ll be trying to beat Gold stake on the mighty Balatro and grinding on Diablo IV to get that paragon level 200 trophy 😭.
I also tried the Hell is Us demo which I really liked. Having no map and using clues to find where to go was new to me so that is why I’m thinking about a day one purchase!
My son has just got his first platinum trophy on Astros playroom and he was ecstatic so may have another trophy hunter on our hands!
It really is a fantastic story and if you can forget about the films and enjoy the games characters I reckon you’ll like it. I still need to get back in Veilguard now you’ve mentioned it.
@naruball Mass Effect 2 was mine, 1st game to pop in my head. Great story and characters. Guardians of the galaxy as well as I know it’s marvel based but such an awesome story and soundtrack. Really miss playing those story games.

Got the freaky looking steelbook as well!

Re: Review in Progress: Dying Light: The Beast (PS5) - This Could Be the Zombie Series' Peak
“Drop-kicking zombies off of rooftops will also never get old”
Never a truer sentence said. I couldn’t get into 2 but me and a mate played the hell out of the 1st game. I do wanna get this at some point 👌
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 598
@Northern_munkey
Already on my wishlist 😂 👍
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 598
@KingPev I actually have been looking at getting 2 and 3 as 4 was my first ever play of that genre and I loved it.
I’ll probably get 2 in a sale 👌

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 595
Been trying the past week. Very different to what I usually play haha. Not quite into it like I thought I would but liking (losing) it 😂
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 595
@R-Soub unfortunately I couldn’t play it weekend due to family responsibilities 😢
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 596
@4fold I think if I did get into VR I’d have to start somewhere with a simpler game then work up to a bigger, more experienced game 👍
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 596
@Orochilocka yes I have. I forgot about that one. Will have to get back into it as, like you said it’s a tad slow but I enjoyed what I played.

Nice! Yeah it’s so hard to stop in Balatro!
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 595

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 593
Diablo IV still has its hooks in me! Completed the campaign last night and reached Paragon level 2 so cracking on with everything else.
May just have to be that today but will probably be playing with with my war obsessed son on a game called Enlisted, not the best but keeps him happy.
I’ve finally purchased God of War: Ragnorok so I really am looking forward to start that as well but Diablo has my attention right now.
Enjoy your gaming weekend Pushsquarians!
Re: Preview: PowerWash Simulator 2 Is Bigger, Better, and as Satisfying as Ever
