Never played a roguelike before but my word Returnal was amazing (even though I sucked and never got past the first boss/biome). But it had this amazing attraction to pull me back in as I loved the story, graphics etc. I even deleted it out of anger but then re installed next day for another run. Just wish I could get into these type of games.
Just been playing The Division 2 (Roosevelt Stronghold Solo) and just realised why I gave up on that game yonks ago. Last quest on Dead Island 2 as well, now off to the bookies and pub for the football.
Have a great weekend gaming folks!
I remember the game coming out but never managed to get to playing it. I was hoping this would be my second chance but I really don’t wanna pay £40 after seeing that video.
I got Dead Space a few months ago on disc for £27.99. Apart from maybe dipping back into MS 1/2/3 there’s not a lot on offer for me personally. But if you have the time, then it’s worth it.
I recently purchased American Fugitive and it’s really good (so far, only played a few hours) but this looks excellent . Will definitely be checking this out.
I really enjoyed Elex II, yes it had its problems but the world was good and I ended up going for the platinum. Not pretty games but there was definitely something there.
I’ll be playing all sorts this weekend. Starting with finishing Uncharted 2 Remastered, Dead Island 2, Fallout 4 and some Snooker 19 with a mate. Hope everyone has a great gaming weekend!
@glassmusic I’m a disabled gamer and bought the Access controller and it’s ok. But I just found it only suits certain games like strategy, tactical etc. I’m sure if I gave it more time it would be great but it’s not quite for me and got to buy a separate joystick as not going to buy two of them (I can only use my left arm). Would love to be into souls games but battling huge bosses with one hand will just cause more RSI than I already get.
Amongst family life and football there will be Dead Space remake, dead island 2, fallout 4 and Snooker 19. Probably end up playing only a tiny bit of these games but that’s family I guess. Have a great gaming weekend everyone
A mixed bag of Fallout 4, Streets of Rage 4 and maybe just maybe I can finally play Dead Space remake as picked it up for £27. Hope everyone has a great gaming weekend!
Working on my last ending on Fallout 4, the Brotherhood. Some Switch fun with the family and general beers n vindaloo. Hope everyone has a cracking gaming weekend!
A bit of Fallout 4 today but I’ve bought a switch for the family so that might get me away from the commonwealth but I highly doubt it haha. Happy gaming everyone!
Can’t seem to stay away from the Commonwealth at the moment. Just very addictive like it was years ago. Will TRY to play something else but it’s difficult to pry myself from Fallout. Happy gaming everyone
I tried playing it for the first time not long ago and my God, there was a lot guff thrown at me. Didn’t know what was going on. To say I was overwhelmed would be an understatement, I really like the gunplay though.
If I can get my little girl off Cbeebies I’ll be playing as much Fallout 4 as possible. Also got my Days Gone NG+ to finish. Have a great gaming weekend everyone!
I’ve downloaded it and it’s waiting but to be fair I wasn’t expecting a massive difference. Smoother and less bugs would do me fine. I kinda sped through it years ago so taking my time this play through with a better frame rate and resolution sounds good. Also the TV show has really made me wanna play it more like quite everyone else.
I bought it last week and got to the minutemen/ power armour part then as soon as the Deathclaw comes out of the ground it crashed! Then trying to go to the Raiders hangout and got slaughtered then crashed. Went to the Ghoul station (not sure the exact name) and all my clothing disappeared.
Still wanna power through though. Great game but bugs! Agghhhhhhhhhh
Days Gone NG+ and I borrowed TLOUP2 Remastered so going to try those in between trying to finish the Fallout TV series which I’m thoroughly enjoying. Maybe even purchase Fallout 4 as it’s only £3.99!
Never wanted to pay DVD prices changing from VHS (yes old) but did. Never liked to buy Blu Ray from DVD but did. Never wanted to change to 4K but after having a PS5 and a 4K TV it’s going the same way.
I know it’s slightly different but it’s a matter of going with technology and yes it’s expensive but if you can’t afford it, you will be able to buy it eventually.
Need 2 more trophies for AC: Valhallas Plat but I borrowed TLOU Part 1 and seriously loving the game all over again so probably more infected and clicker killing all weekend!
50hrs in AC:Valhalla, just a few more counties to go then it’ll be on to something new. May even give Helldivers 2 a go even though I’m a single player gamer. Have a great gaming weekend everyone!
@Kyushutrail Yeah I’d probably give Valhalla a miss for now then. There’s a lot to do and stealth usually goes out the window quite often (with me anyway lol). I actually prefer Odyssey to Origins and Valhalla but that’s because I liked the Greek setting with the myths and legends.
I bought AC:Valhalla mid week so putting a few hours into that. I was burnt out on Odyssey so avoided Valhalla for as long as I could but have fallen for the collectibles and terrible accents/voice acting once again!
Trying Ark:Survival Evolved again. Punching a tree and dying repeatedly does get annoying but slowly getting there. Level 12 and still on the beach. Happy gaming everyone!

Re: Halloween Is Getting a Pair of Games, Including Unreal Engine 5 Title from John Carpenter
Single player pleeeeeease! With the option of multi player. Haddonfield escaping Micheal would be awesome. Just 1 and 2 though.

Green Hell for £6.99 might be worth a shot. Loved the Forest.

Yes, very clever.

Haha yeah approaching a stuck deathclaw is a predicament. I’d just swear at it then move on or could annihilate it for the XP.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 515
@Kyushutrail
Was it the setting/theme that put you off or the gameplay?
As Valhalla is just Odyssey reskinned with Vikings.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 515
I bought AC:Valhalla mid week so putting a few hours into that. I was burnt out on Odyssey so avoided Valhalla for as long as I could but have fallen for the collectibles and terrible accents/voice acting once again!
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 514
Trying Ark:Survival Evolved again. Punching a tree and dying repeatedly does get annoying but slowly getting there. Level 12 and still on the beach.
Happy gaming everyone!
