Taking my sweet ass time with AC: Shadows. Naoe only. Yasuke is dumb to play. Beautiful game. All the usual Ubisoft things of course, but the writing, music, visuals, gameplay and combat are the best of the Ubisoft bunch IMO. About half way through maybe
@UltimateOtaku91 No Mans Sky comes close and continues
Loved my first play through. Decided to play again as a ninja and got blocked by the Oda boss battle. i.e. my char was too under powered, and I got wasted 20 times in a row. Cant be arsed to go back and level up a bit more. Especially since I'm only 70% through FF7:Rebirth
Already played most of the content so no. That being said, if it came on plus I might consider it for nostalgia reasons. My PS5 is the only gaming machine I have at the moment
I'm finally into Final Fantasy 7 rebirth and loving it. I've bounced off a bunch of FF games but this one has its hooks in. Only 20 hours so I know I've got a way to go...
Loved SotS as I did Pathless. I should go back and try Journey. The FPS guys also interviewed Nava and he talked about Sony’s help being essential. Interesting stuff
I think she's good for this. I'm not a huge Croft-stan, except she needs to be a upper class English woman trying to break out of her expected life with Indy style badass-ness

Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows Devs Explain One of the Best Open World Weather Systems in Gaming
I’m about 2/3rds into Shadows right now and the world building, including the weather system is just sublime
My pile of shame is enormous right now but I can’t help but do everything in this game
Re: One Player Just Unlocked PlayStation's Impossible Platinum Trophy
Sounds impressive
I still don’t have a single platinum. Just not interesting to me
That being said I’m becoming more and more completionist these days so who knows?
Re: These 6+ New PS5, PS4 Games Are Coming Out Next Week (30th-5th April)
Darwin's looks great. Hopefully not too challenging. I bounced off Prince of Persia because I'm too unco

Re: PS5 Modder Successfully Installs Linux, Boots GTA 5 at 60fps with Ray Tracing
Considering how expensive PC hardware is right now, this could be a useful Steam Machine alternative. Maybe
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's New Cheats Revealed, Should Come to PS5
Can I use these to beat Rufus?
Re: Poll: What's Your Reaction to Horizon Hunters Gathering?
Loved the first two games
This looks like a fun parallel project
Kind of like Tears of the Kingdom versus Hyrule Warriors games
It’ll probably be a bit teenage twee for me but you never know
Re: The Last of Us TV Show Might Be Over After Season 3
I like s1 and s2. It makes sense that they wrap it up. It is dark story and I think they told it pretty well
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 618
AC:Shadows. I gave up on FF7: Rebirth. The Rufus fight broke me so I moved on
AC:S is great so far. Very Ubisoft of course
Re: Larian Games Doing Better Than Ever Off the Back of Divinity Reveal
I bounced off DOS2. I found it too difficult, but now that I've completed BG3 (and loved it!), I'll go back and hopefully do better.
DOS2 is loved by CRPG community, so I should definitely give it another go
Re: Marathon's PS5 Release Date Looks Like It's Leaked
I hope it does well. Concord style failures bum me out
Re: Control Resonant Not a 'Safe Sequel', Remedy Aiming to 'Push the Boundaries'
Loved Control. Combat engine, art style, universe, characters and story
I really liked AW2 even though survival horror (is that the right genre?) isn’t really my thing
Really looking forward to Resonant but if they go the Souls-like direction I’m out
Re: Talking Point: What Are Your PS5 New Year's Resolutions?
Tackle my now towering Wall of Shame. I never used to be a completionest, but along came FF7: Rebirth...
Re: Game of the Year: #4 - Ghost of Yotei
@JayJ is Push a GoY fan site? Your comments are a little confusing
Re: Game of the Year: #4 - Ghost of Yotei
@JayJ the polling disagrees with you
Re: PS6 Could Be Delayed Due to RAM Price Chaos
I was going to buy/build a gaming PC but that's off the table for a little while. Screw AI
Re: Game of the Year: Best PS5 Story Game of 2025
Indiana Jones is the only one of these that I've played this year, so it wins. Also I really dug it
edit: I've been trapped by the size and awesomeness of FF7:Rebirth
Re: Game of the Year: Best PS5 Indie Game of 2025
Sword of the Sea was great. Bounced off Blue Prince. Simply don’t understand the gushing love for that game
Re: Divinity Dev's Comments on Generative AI Trigger a Total Social Media Sh*tstorm
@Boxmonkey by who?
Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows Finally Gets New Finisher Animations in Patch 1.1.7, Out Now
It is next on my list when I finish FF7 Rebirth. Can’t wait
Re: Baldur's Gate 3 Dev's Divinity: Original Sin 2 Out Now on PS5, Offers Free Upgrade
I bounced off this but completed BG3. It was really hard. Maybe I’ll go back now that my turn based combat skills are a lot better
Re: Control Resonant from Remedy Revealed, Out in 2026 for PS5
Wicked. I love Control
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 610
@Dodoo Rebirth is my first as well. I bounced off Remake for some reason. It just didn’t click. Love Rebirth though
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 610
Hour 75 and Chapter 12 of FF7:Rebirth. Each time I say I’ll mainline the main story I end up completing everything on every map
I may have a problem
Re: New PS5 Controllers Said to Be Optimised for Better Battery Life
I only play in short 2-3 hour sessions. Fix the drift

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 609
FF7: Rebirth. Just finished Red's chapter, and it was great. About to go into Aerith's one, I think. Love this game
AC: Shadows is next on the spindle though, thanks to the weekend sales

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 608
Chapter 10 of Final Fantasy 7: rebirth
One day I’ll finish that thing
Re: PS5 Exclusive Ghost of Yotei Is One of the USA's Best-Selling Games of 2025
@mary1 Perhaps you need to have a little lie down, eh?
Re: PS5 Exclusive Ghost of Yotei Is One of the USA's Best-Selling Games of 2025
@Reyzore I honestly hope that the anti-woke madness will just fade into oblivion.
All that ***** is so 2017-2020
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for November 2025?
I’ve never played GTA5 so that’s a bonus for me. Pacific Drive sounds great and Thank Goodness you’re Here sounds funny as well
Good month for me
Re: Poll: Will You Be Buying Halo: Campaign Evolved on PS5?
Already played most of the content so no. That being said, if it came on plus I might consider it for nostalgia reasons. My PS5 is the only gaming machine I have at the moment
Re: Halo PS5 Is Great, But Why Doesn't It Have Competitive Multiplayer?
Never cared about Halo MP. Given its age I don’t care about SP either anymore
My stack of shame is way too high to care about this one
Re: These 22+ PS5, PS4 Games Are Coming Out Next Week (27th-2nd November)
OW2 at some point. I’m still only a 1/3 of the way through FF7: Rebirth so it’ll be a while
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Was to Get DLC at One Point, Scrapped for the Third Game
Just playing ff7 rebirth right now and it’s awesome. It doesn’t need more content!

Re: PS5 Exclusive Marvel's Wolverine Is Now Available to Wishlist on PS Store
Not here in Australia. Grrrr
Re: Battlefield 6 Server Queues Are Absolutely Humongous on Launch Day
Is it fun. You know once you’re in?
Re: Remedy Upgrades Control with PS5 Pro Support, New Patch Out Now
One of my first PS5 games. Great stuff. Art design. Scifi/horror themes. Cool combat engine. Cool upgrade paths. Really looking forward to Control 2
Re: The Last of Us 2 Is Now Available on PS Plus Extra on PS5, PS4
@Dogbreath I disagree. I really enjoyed TLOU2. The moral and ethical journeys are brilliant, and far more interesting than most game writing.
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for October 2025 Announced
Good month but I’ve played them all. Still finishing Spidey remastered which I’m really enjoying
Re: Latest Ghost of Yotei Trailer Is a Quick Hit Before PS5 Launch
I’ll wait on reviews but I loved GoT so I imagine this will be a buy for me
Re: Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined's PS5 Characters Are Based on Real-Life Models
@DonkeyFantasy if I hear the Stable theme from Breath of the Wild AND Tears of the Kingdom one. More. Time?…
Re: 'It Saved the Game': Sword of the Sea Dev Praises Sony, Explains PS Plus Deal
Loved SotS as I did Pathless. I should go back and try Journey. The FPS guys also interviewed Nava and he talked about Sony’s help being essential. Interesting stuff
Re: Hollow Knight: Silksong Difficulty to Be Toned Down Following Player Feedback
I don’t have the time or patience for too hard games. Spider man remastered is more my level
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 597
Finished Sword of the Sea. Lovely stuff. Trying out Lies of P. Not sure just yet
Re: Game of Thrones Star Announced as Lara Croft for Amazon's Tomb Raider TV Show
I think she's good for this. I'm not a huge Croft-stan, except she needs to be a upper class English woman trying to break out of her expected life with Indy style badass-ness
Re: Rumour: PS6 Handheld Device Can Be Docked Like Nintendo Switch 2
Not for me. I dock the Switch right now
I like the solid predictable power of a console. I am sick of the PC micro-upgrade cycle
Re: Sony's Next Blockbuster Ghost of Yotei Goes Gold Ahead of October PS5 Release
Just a PR release but I’m pretty pumped about this one
