Still haven’t beaten CloverPit 🤦♂️ but gotten closer (deadline 13)
Got the Plat for Mass Effect 1 today, now on to 2 but to break it up I’ve decided to buy Yet Another Zombie Survivors for a bit of mindless fun. Great game!
Pre ordered GTA VI two days ago so can’t wait for that!
After 100+ hrs I’ve still not been able to break the fruit machine and leave the room in CloverPit. Come close twice so gonna keep trying.
Having played Ferocious for a couple hours I’ve decided to leave it til it gets patched majorly as it’s rough as hell and a massive disappointment.
Purchased Aftermath: The Last Stand and I didn’t realise it’s a twin stick shooter (only for the guns anyway as you still have melee).
So I’ve had a pretty bad couple of weeks for gaming but I’m gonna start Mass Effect Legendary Edition from scratch after reading the sad news about BioWare.
I’ll definitely look forward to the Witcher 3 free upgrade. Couldn’t get into the combat when I tried it last so hopefully it’s a little simpler this time 🤞
Doom 3 as always wanted to try it as it’s not as fast paced as the newer ones and it’s more horror and jump scares.
Ferocious which is installed but not touched it yet. Looks decent for £15.99
Once Human, a F2P game but it’s strangely good with the crafting and survival aspects. It’s like Trevor Henderson, Stranger Things, Control, The Forest and a little Division had a weird baby and out popped Once Human. It’s very Janky (first time using the word to describe a game) but I’m 15hrs in and liking it.
@GirlVersusGame I’ve had the Devin Townsend bug after seeing him last Friday so probably more of him and a little Avatar as hoping to see them in Cardiff this year.
@GirlVersusGame Please excuse the very late reply.
I was first introduced to him with Strapping Young Lad in the 2010s. Absolutely loved that band. His solo stuff is good but like you said no idea what his style is 😂 and yeah he’s a real entertainer.
Playing Sniper Elite:Resistance, always a fun time with these games
Absolutely adoring Mafia: The Old Country, it’s right up my street after reading Mario Puzo’s The Sicilian many years ago. The setting (obviously), story and VA is bloody amazing.
Heads a little sore after seeing Devin Townsend last night too, so maybe a little Clover Pit and Brotato with a tad hair of the dog to see me through.
@EYEBALL watch the first 2 and that’s it. That’ll give you the best and only insight into Barkers world. Books are good as well as the graphic novels 👍
@old_gamer74 Never played Judgment but Sleeping Dogs is brilliant. Cracking combat, great action game. There’s even a Road Runner Records radio station which is highly recommended if you like heavy metal 🤘. It can get a little repetitive with some of the fighting but once you level up your skills you’ll have a blast.
After 100+ hours I finally got the Platinum for Wildlands 💪. I bought the DLC so want to try that over the weekend but going to watch the football results come in with my dad plus a few beers so I think it’ll just be the Switch this weekend.
Brotato and Clover Pit are taking up a lot of my time (albeit frustrating 😂)
Trying to get into Dying light 2 but it doesn’t click with me like the 1st. It reminds me a lot of a Farcry game but with zombies. Still tense running around at night though 😱.
Heading back into the Wildlands today and doing a few missions that I haven’t finished on my 2nd play through. Completed last Rites the other evening which made me jump back into the campaign. Definitely looks and feels better. Only need two trophies for the Platinum so will be asking someone to lend me a hand as they’re both online trophies. Gonna try Dying light 2 again tonight as didn’t give it much of a chance last time and sold it. Tried Signalis and I like the feel to it but had too many beers and didn’t know what the hell I was doing, so a sober approach is needed (as is in most games).
@GirlVersusGame would’ve liked to have played with friends but no one had the game so I did it solo twice. Could never beat a certain Predator though 😂
I’ll be playing this again then. Really good game. Prefer it to Breakpoint. Once you’ve upgraded a certain few stats/devices it does get repetitive though, that’s my only gripe.
Sir Whoopass: Immortal Death today as I fancied something not serious and just fun (hopefully as only bought it at 9am). Looks like a saints row/skyrim mash up.
Danger 4 complete on Brotato 👍
44 today (and so is my brother) so will just be chilling out with a few beers and friends.
Tried it a while back and couldn’t get into it. Story seemed crap so deleted and sold it. Completed the first with a mate 2 or 3 times. May come back at some point though. Added to library
@GirlVersusGame Hi, yeah I’ve not been posting much as been busy with family life and work. Just been reading PS mainly. Liking the reason for a bit of Sabaton 🤘lol. Unfortunately my weekend won’t have a lot of music 😢 but if it does it’ll be Tool, SOAD and Slayer. Have a great weekend gaming and nice to hear from ya. 👍
After 196 hours I’m one boss and one Milk Molar away from the Platinum for Grounded. The grind and searching is beginning to annoy me now so I’ve decided to give it a rest and get the steering wheel out and just cruise around the US on the Crew 2.
After reading some comments about the Fireteam 2 article I’ve decided to re download Aliens: Dark Descent as I didn’t give it a proper go last time out.
A bit of Just Cause 3 as well as who doesn’t like mindlessly blowing stuff up? 😂
Brotato on the Switch as completed Danger 3 now I’m getting my a** handed to me on Danger 4 😂
NG+ Grounded and struggling a lot with the Infected Broodmother! Got her on to the 3rd phase but I was totally unprepared for her high damage and very fast attacks.
Started Outcast: A New Beginning in the week and the voice acting and story aren’t all great (all very generic so far anyway) but it’s okay to just wonder around and shoot robots and strange alien creatures.
Brotato on the switch and again, struggling with Danger 3. Got so close then got overwhelmed.
May have to dip into Balatro as haven’t played it in ages.
I managed to get Outcast: A New Beginning for £12 in the week so hopefully will start that.
I’ve been scavenging lots of resources in Grounded so I’m ready for the end bosses. I defeated a few Black Widows and the Wasp Queen the other day so just need to add some Jewels to my weapons and I’ll be ready I think (or more hope).
Had a great time at the arcade the other week. Time crisis 2, Point Blank and Sega Rally were just as awesome as I remember em. Played a Namco light gun game called Quick and Crash which was quite addictive.
I do miss racing games like TOCA 1 and 2, Colin McRae rally 1 and 2 etc They were just fun to play, and I’m not a fan of sims although rally games have always been sim/difficult for me. Hot wheels do have the fun factor though 👍
@GirlVersusGame Wow fair play to that. I played ARK with my son and set sail on a raft at night and I had an awesome spear and was killing everything then a huge underwater dino came up from the sea and destroyed us and the raft. Short story shorter, never played since 😂
Been really liking Grounded (solo Campaign). With most survival games I usually start but never finish apart from Green Hell and The Forest but this really is fun. Continuing my Insanity run on RE9 still (just got to Raccoon City).
Going for a Thai curry with some mates tonight so should be a good night 👌
Looks like a poor man’s Edge controller but at a premium price. Me and my son have gone through 3 DS controllers, I finally forked out for the Edge and it’s brilliant. Will be getting him one at some point but not this.

Re: The Death Stranding Series Has Been Played By Way More People Than You'd Expect
It’s one of those games where I know I should buy it and start playing it but just never have.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 656
Still haven’t beaten CloverPit 🤦♂️ swear I’m playing it wrong 😂 so a bit of that on the switch.
I’ve decided to go for the Platinums on all 3 Mass Effect games so I’m hopefully going to be grabbing the first one this weekend as 73% done so far.
Mafia 3 as well.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 651
@GirlVersusGame I played Doom a lot in the 90s then RE held my attention for a very long time and didn’t bother with Doom at all till this week 😂.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 651
Playing a few different games this weekend.
Doom 3 as always wanted to try it as it’s not as fast paced as the newer ones and it’s more horror and jump scares.
Ferocious which is installed but not touched it yet. Looks decent for £15.99

@GirlVersusGame Wow that’s some mix of music genres. Cash and Zepplin I like.
Sorry to read about your bug, get better soon 🤞.

Playing Sniper Elite:Resistance grinding out some trophies.
Mafia: The Old country still and Brotato ( done Danger 5 five times now)

@GirlVersusGame yeah Narco Road wasn’t great what I played but I will definitely enjoy Fallen Ghosts as was more up my street.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 646
Bit of everything if possible this weekend.
Bought Mafia:The Old Country for £22 so wanna start that.
Dying light 2 which does seem better after I sold it a while back.
Finishing up the campaign on MW3.
Wildlands (3rd play through) with my son.
And finally I grabbed CloverPit on the switch. It’s not quite as addictive as Balatro but it’s still early days.
Have a great gaming weekend Pushsquarians! 🍻
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 645
@GirlVersusGame I may do a 3rd play through now 😂
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 645
@GirlVersusGame Cool, cheers 🍻
Re: These 18+ PS5 Games Are Coming Out Next Week (10th-16th August)
Pre ordered CloverPit for my Switch and I’m tempted with Grounded 2 but the first became such a grind in the end I may wait for a discount.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 645

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 637
After 35hrs I finally platted RE:Requiem, fantastic game although not my absolute favourite, it’s up there ☝️.
Got a free house today (apart from my very bouncy German Shepherd) so it’s going to be more RE with RE2R and RE4R
Still crafting and getting destroyed by massive bugs in Grounded 👌
Going to an arcade with my mate and his son for some Time crisis, Point Blank and SEGA Rally etc this afternoon.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 635
Bit of everything this weekend, either side of my son’s birthday today.
I’ve recently started Ready or Not and Pacific Drive. Both great games but with very tiny writing and very finicky controls.
RE9 on insanity.
A bit of GTAV online madness and with a dash of PGA 2K25 (the G.O.A.T trophy is driving me insane 😠)
Have a great gaming weekend Pushsquarians! 🍻
