Hello there fellow gamers.
Since I have finished AC Origins (again) and both dlc (for the first time), and I am still in the mood for these type of games, I just started AC Odissey last night, so I´ll be playing that one on my Series X.
As for my PS5, I´ll be playing more online SF6 matches and maybe I will finally start Rise of the Ronin.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all

Hello there fellow gamers.
This was without a doubt the best game anouncemnt of this State of Play.
As I was watching the trailer being super colorfull and whimsical and then the music started....... I´m 6 months way for being 40 years old, but watching this trailer almost made cry of happiness.
I don´t really know why or how to express..... It´s both nostalgia, joy and feel good moment.
You can defenetely feel the passion Team Asobi has for, not only Astro as a franchise and as character (new official PS mascot), but also every other major character and Sony Playstation franchise.
Cannot wait for this gem.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming to us all
Very much excited for this game.

Hello there fellow gamers.
I have very fond memories of the original Test Drive Unlimited on Xbox 360.
That game paved the way to games like Forza Horizon and The Crew franchises.
I loved exploring the Island of Oahu with both cars and bikes.
The game was just fun and chill.
Hopefully TDU Solar Cown has the same spark and the same style the original had. We´ll see.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming

Hello there fellow gamers.
For this weekend I´ll continue my AC Origins second playtrough, this time on my Series X with both DLCs to play around and online matches in Street Fighter 6 on my PS5, sice Akuma just droped and, surprise, he is very fun to play and very fun to fight against.
I love what Capcom did with Sirn Akuma Giant Attack Boss fight in the Battle Hub. The game needs more of this stuff.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all

Hello there fellow gamers.
For the last two months I´ve been in a Open World Action RPG frenzy with games like FF7 Rebirth, Horizon 2 Forbidden West on my PS5 and AC Valhalla on my Series X.
And now that I´ve finished AC Valhalla and finally got my 1Tb Expansion Card, been installing more games and one of them is AC Origins, one of my favourite AC and favourite Open World Action RPGs, sooooo......... I decided to play the game again, but now on my Xbox and sweet 60 FPS.
I don´t know how long I´ll keep playing these type of games, since they take so much time, but as long as I´m having fun, I´ll continue indulging myself.
And yes my friend @Zuljaras, Castlevania franchise is Amazing.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us

@playstation1995 @HonestHick Hello there friends.
I absolutely agree that games like Resistance, Socom, inFamous, Little Big Planet and Motorstorm to make a return.
As much has I enjoy Horizon, Last of Us, Spiderman and many others, I feel like some of the more unique games have been missing.
Sony Playstation needs games like Killzone, Resistance and Motorstorm as much as it needs games like Ghost of Tsushima, Bloodborne and Days Gone.
PS needs to have a bit more variety in it´s gaming portfolio.
And yes, if Resistance gets a Remake it´s a day one purchase.
Having said that, I do think Playstation´s Future is a bright one.
Just give your developer teams time and good managment and they will use their creative prowess to make awesome games.
It´s just my opinion on the matter.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming

Hello there fellow gamers.
As of now I´m just currently enjoying my time with Assassins Creed Valhalla on my Series X and Lies of P on my PC.
Have already finished the main game of AC and now doing the dlc expasions.
And Lies of P is becoming better and better the more I play it.
So yeah, those are the two games I´ll be enjoying.
After those, I might jump to some of my new PS5 game purchases, wich are quite a few.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all

Hello there fellow gamers.
I wonder what kind of remake AC Black Flag would Ubisoft do?
Will they make the exact same game, same gameplay mechanics and storyline with just very good visuals and animations?
Or will they make it a bit more like AC Origins?
Because, even though I´ve been an AC fan since the first with Altair, I would love a more open world, stealth action rpg game.
We´ll see what they decide to do.
Having said that, I´m very excited and quite curious to learn more about AC Codename Red and Hexe.
And agree with @colonelkilgore, Black Sails was such a good show and it does remind me a bit of AC Black Flag.
Especially Season 2. Underrated tv show. Would watch again.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming

@Flaming_Kaiser Hey there friend.
For sure. Arkane Austin was given the Prey lincense and even though it was not the sequel reveal trailer from all those years ago, they still made an awesome singleplayer sandbox game.
Wich is something both Arkane Lyon and Austin are known for.
It is what they do best. Nothing against a team trying something new and different, but being forced to work on a project that more than 50% of the team disagrees?
Clearly there is very poor managment at Xbox game division.
Hopefully things will turn around in a more positive note.
Cheers and have a good one

Hello there fellow gamers.
This are some really bad news. For gamers, developers and Xbox in general.
I can understand Arkane Austin to a certain degree, because one bad game, does not make the whole studio bad. They made Prey. And it´s awesome.
And then there´s Tango..... I mean REALLY? Their one and only japanese developer? Who has some pretty good games under their belt, some that could/should probably get sequels?
What a tremendous disapointing decision by the Xbox game division administration.
Hopefully, the developers that will unfortunately be laid off by this, will find either other studios to work with or start a brand new studio and continue to do their passion.
All the very best for them. Cheers

Hello there fellow gamers;
These are some good news.
Very excited to see more of Ken´s vision for this game.
Might also give us a release date as well.
amatmulisha@ you and me both my friend. Some of the most amazing gaming experiences I´ve played. Phenomenal games.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming to us all

@Shepherd_Tallon Absolutely.
And the MUSIC elevates the game´s experience even more.
I honestly didn´t know what to think about Remake´s story differences, but now I´m all for it.
Very curious what they will do with Zack´s story though.
And Cloud´s as well. Because that intro...... Game is going places alright.
Cheers and have a good one

Hi there fellow gamers.
Yes, I´m playing Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and yes I played Remake as well.
On a break for some food and checking news before going back and continue to play.
The game is very good. And they made the combat much more apealing, reactive and responsive. Exactly what I wanted.
It´s a good thing myself and a few others, like my friends @Shepherd_Tallon and @Bentleyma booked some days to play this.
The game is BIG and there is a lot to do. And fun too. Very fun.
You can just keep exploring the way you see fit.
I already know I´ll be spending more than 100 hours for sure.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming to us all

@Olmaz Hi friend.
In my case, there are very few games that gets me that much excited to play not just day one, but day two, three and four if possible.
And Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, Rise of The Ronin and Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree are some of them.
There is just not enough time to play so many awesome games.
Cheers and have a good one

@Enriesto @Shepherd_Tallon Hey there friends.
I was thinking the exact same thing.
Can´t wait to go back to The lands between, or in this case, The Land of Shadow and just get wrecked by whatever those new and terrifying things are.
And eventualy defeat every last one of them them in a triumphant roar of accomplishment.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming

Hi there fellow gamers.
I voted none of them, because I also have a Series X and Gamepass, so there is that.
But like @themightyant mentioned, I am also kinda torn, since
Hi-Fi Rush was one of the best games that came out last year and the best Xbox game of last year, in my opinion, and I wouldn´t mind purchasing the game for my PS5 or my Switch for that matter, and thus owning it, but I can also do just that on my Series X.
I do want to support these kind of games because we have been lacking these different types of experiences from the big developers.
As for the future, I think we will see more Xbox games coming to other platforms. Not today and not the really big ones like Halo or Forza, but it will happen.
Cheers and happy gaming folks

Hi there fellow gamers.
I have to be honest, as a MEGA Metal Gear Solid FAN, this anouncement was HUGE.
A brand new Action Espionage game from the Master himself?
I mean, I´m all about Death Stranding 2, since I loved the first one and have like 100 plus hours, but......
Like @Korgon said, can we get this next project done alongside DS2 so we can still play this on PS5 pretty please?
Make this good kojima-san. Please, make this good.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming to us all

@Kidfunkadelic83 @Shaunholio Helloe there friends.
To this day, in any game that allows me to drive a taxi all I hear in my head is "All I Want" from The Offspring.
Hearing one of my favourite bands while playing Crazy Taxi was pure bliss back in the day.
This means two things: one, were getting old and two we still have great taste in music 😉
The game looks pretty nice. Too bad there are so many games already in the first three months.
Cheers and have a good one

Hi there fellow gamers.
Even though I shouldn´t get any other new game because my backlog is HUGE, I will probably be getting the following games:

• The Last Of Us Part 2 Remastered PS5 10€ upgrade;
• Tekken 8;
• Granblue Fantasy: Relink;
• Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden;
• Final Fantasy VII Rebirth;
• Rise of The Ronin;
• Dragon´s Dogma 2.
  Not entirely sure if I´m gonna get all of them day one (going to depend on some store deals in my Country), but will eventualy.
  What a great and somewhat expensive start of a year this is.
  Cheers and happy gaming everyone

Hi there fellow gamers and Merry Christmas.
Hope you all have a great day with your loved ones and play some good, fun and exciting videogames.
Cheers everyone and all the best

@Zuljaras hey there friend.
Sekiro is great. When the combat mechanics really start to connect with you, with perfect deflections and mikiri counter it feels so good pulling those of that it never gets old.
It also has very fun traversal as well.
And Castlevania will always be one of the most addicting and fun franchise to play. Harmony of Dissonance is another interesting example of that.
Too bad Lords of Shadow didn´t get much love.
Konami needs to get the IPs rights to another developer.....
Formsoftware or Santa Monica Studio. A guy can dream.
Cheers and have a good one

Hi there fellow gamers;
This weekend I´ll continue playing my birhtday present Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate Edition on my Series X and some Street Fighter 6 online matches on my PS5.
Merry Chistmas, enjoy the Holidays and happy gaming to us all

Hi there fellow gamers.
My personal list of PS5 is:

• Spiderman 2;
• Final Fantasy XVI;
• Resident Evil 4 Remake;
• Street Fighter 6;
• Lies of P.
  If I can add other platform titles, then:
• Zelda Tears of The Kingdom;
• Hi-Fi Rush;
• Metroid prime Remaster.
  And there is plenty more great games that I can add that I´ve played and others that I haven´t.
  What a tremendous year 2023 was, is for videogames.
  The backlog keeps incressing doesn´t it? The life of a gamer.
  Cheers and happy gaming everyone

Hi there fellow gamers,
Here is my Japanese games list:

• Under Night In-Birth II [Sys:Celes];
• Tekken 8;
• Granblue Fantasy: Relink;
• Final Fantasy VII Rebirth;
• Dragon's Dogma 2.
  And these are just the ones we know about.
  I think next year is going to be as crazy as this one was.
  But isn´t that what we want? More awesome games to play?
  The answer is YES. The answer is always YES 😜
  Cheers and happy gaming everyone

Hello there fellow gamers and Thank you @ShogunRok for the heads up on the Beta.
Under Night is such a fun, crazy combo game and now with rollback netcode people will actually play this online.
There are way to many fighting games as of lately.
I don´t thinh i´ll be able to keep up 😜
Cheers and happy gaming everyone

Hi there fellow gamers.
Great interview @ShogunRok.
Star Ocean Second Story is one of the best rpgs from the golden era of classic PSone rpgs.
There were so many of them like Azure Dreams, Legend of Mana, Saga Frontier 2, Front Mission 3, Alundra, Crono Cross, FFVII, VIII and IX, Suikoden 2, Breath of Fire III and IV, Legend of Dragoon(give us a remake Sony) and the list goes on and on.
No wonder people want to see these games to come back in any shape or form, they were and still are amazing games.
One can only hope to see more get the same treatment.
Cheers and happy gaming everyone

@Mikey856 @Smiffy01 I know that Smuglers Run was one of PS2 launch games. But mine were Tekken Tag Tournament, Zone of the Enders and Shadow of memories (anyboby remenbers that game? It was great).
But yeah, both Midnight Club LA and DriveClub were gems of racing games back in the day.
I actualy have DriveClub installed on my PS4 and PS5(only because I got a 2Tb SSD). And yes, the weather effects still impress to this day. Fun fact, CD Projeckt Red made The Witcher 3 weather effects based on DriveClub.
I also have to mention how crazy it is that you can play retro games like Daytona USA and Fighting Vipers on a modern Sega game like the Yakuza franchise? Kinda strange, but very cool.
And as for the deviation from the topic of the thread, well, it happens 😜
Cheers and all the best

@Smiffy01 @Mikey856 Hey there friends,
I never played Smuglers Run, Blur or Split Second, but the MotorStorm series?
All of them. One of my favourite Evolution Studios franchise alongside DriveClub. Those games were so much fun.
Midnight Club was also very enjoyable.
Such a shame Evolution Studios no loger exits.
Sony needs to get some new talent to revive those franchises.
And many others wich are dormant. Maybe one day.
Cheers

Hi there fellow gamers.
Sony Playstation..... If you please..... Just give us Bloodborne Remaster/Remake and Bloodborne 2.
And while you are making those, how about Demon´s Souls 2?
Oh and I´m very much excited for Team Ninja Rise of the Ronin.
Yep, I want all of those, please and thank you. I guy can dream.
Cheers and happy gaming everyone

Hi there fellow gamers;
This weekend I´ll will be mostly playing Starfield on my Series X and Street Fighter 6 on my PS5, since I´ll be leaving town for a week.
Wich means I´ll be all over my Switch and Zelda Tears of the Kingdom.
And once I return it will be MORTAL KOMBAT 1 (Cue the techno music MK theme).
Still need to check Sea of Stars and Baldurs Gate 3.
What a time to be a gamer. It´s almost to much. Almost.
Cheers and happy gaming weekend to everyone

@Terra_Custodes
"No other game ever gave me the emotional responses that these did, I genuinely cared about the characters to the point I felt emotionally shattered after finishing the second game."
My friend, that is exactely the reason why I hold this game in such a high regard.
That and the amazing visuals, animations, motion capture and voice acting and last, but not least, the fantastic gameplay that is top notch in my opinion.
Cheers

@ErrantRob Hi there friend
Absolutely agree. There are so many great games to play on different systems it´s kinda insane.
Good thing I´ve been able to make all my gaming purchases either with store discounts or pay 2 bring 3 deals.
And the year is not even over yet...... To many games and so little time.
Cheers and have a good one

@rusty82 @Terra_Custodes Hey friends.
The Last of Us Part 2 is indeed one of the best games I´ve played for sure.
I actualy prefer part 2 over Part 1, personaly, but both are excelent games and I really hope ND will make a Part 3 to wrap things up.
Cheers and all the best

@playstation1995 @Zuljaras Hi there friends.
Just want to say, great taste in games. That´s it.
Cheers and enjoy you gaming weekend

Hi there fellow gamers,
After finishing Final Fantasy XVI on PS5, I´ve been on a Xbox Series X craze and have played and finished a bunch of games available on Gamepass and some that I´ve purchased on sale.
And as of this weekend I´m still very much enjoying one of my favourite racing games of all time, Forza Horizon 5.
Other than that, I´ll be playing Street Fighter 6 on my PS5 and more Zelda Tears of the Kingdom on my Switch.
All that while I´m eagerly anticipating for Starfield to be available on Gamepass September 6th. Just a few more days.
Cheers and happy gaming weekend for us all

Hi there fellow gamers;
This was one of the trailers I was very excited to see and not only the art style looks good (even though it needs some polishing), but we got to hear some of the characters and think I herad my boy Ryo/Mr Karate and maybe even Yuri..... Was was it Hotaru?
Anyway, really looking forward to see more of this game.
Still can´t belive a sequel to Garou, one of my played Dreamcast games and one of the best SNK games to date is actually real.
Amazing times to be a fighting game fan.
Cheers and happy gaming to us all

Hi there fellow gamers. Guilty Gear Strive is still my most played fighting game on my PS5. Heck I even play the game on my Series X because of Game Pass.
It is true that Street Fighter 6 has taken the spotlight and it deserves, it is an amazing fighting game. And there are quite a few FGs coming around like MK1, Tekken8 and GBFVR wich I played the open beta and really enjoyed it.
But I am quite optimistic for GGS Season 3.
Not only I hope they improve some characters, like my main Chipp, but also dlc characters like Slayer, Jam and maybe some new or guest characters, wich would be a first.
This years EVO is going to be very interesting.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming to us all

@Zuljaras To me as well.
It was the Castlevania franchise that made me fall in love with MetroidVania type games. Been playing many ever since.
I still remember playing Metal Gear Solid on my PSone (another amazing franchise by the way) and when I heard Psycho Mantis, not only saying that I enjoy rpgs, but even sayin that I enjoy SOTK!!!!
I was in complete shock when it happened.
The memory card reading trick was just another genious idea from Kojima-san. No wonder I love MGS so much.
Konami used to be great though.... Oh well....
Cheers and have a good one

@Zuljaras Hi there friend.
Had to give you a like and a shout.
Absolutly love SOTK as one of the BEST games ever made and that awesome physical copy is making me quite jealous 😜
Enjoy it well my friend.
Cheers and kudos to you

Hi there fellow gamers.
This weekend is all about Final Fantasy XVI on PS5.
I only have like 12 hours and it´s already an absolute blast to play.
It just might be my personal GOTY.
Such an amazing year for videogames. There is just not enough time during the day to play them all.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all

@DETfaninATL yeah, I´m down for some fun co-op shooting.
I have played Mortal Shell when it first came out on PC and then on my Series X when it came on Gamepass.
I did like both the Shell and Harden mechanics.
It is kinda short though.
But the dlc improved the game´s replayability for sure.
Still undecided if I´m getting this game on PC or PS5, but I´m definitely getting it.
Cheers and happy gaming

@DETfaninATL Hi there friend.
Have to agree with you. The first Remnant was such a pleseant surprise, that I played it four times on my PC, three of them in co-op with the latest dlc included.
Had a lot of fun with it both solo play and with friends.
And just like my man @playstation1995 mentioned, this game and Ni-Oh are two of the best souls-like, challenging games out there.
So many great games this year, it´s kinda insane.
Cheers and happy gaming to us all

@Kidfunkadelic83 Yeah, absolutely.
We could do some Ken mirror matches and also try some other characters as well.
Today is my day off so I´ll home in the afternoon playin SF6 and then will watch Summer Game Fest.
Hit me up when you can.
Cheers

@Kidfunkadelic83 Hi there friend.
I´m also a Ken main player and I have Luke as my secondary.
Still trying different characters like Dee Jay and Marisa though.
And just like you and @Justaperson mentioned, I have also encountered many Modern players and they Drive Impact and anti-air you like it´s nothing.
Oh and I finally fought a Dhalsim player and he was as nuts and unpredictable as I thought he was going to be.
And how obnoxius JP comand grab and gound attacks are?
But still, I´m having a lot of fun playing a good SF game.....
Cause it´s been awhile.
Cheers and happy gaming

Hi there fellow gamers.
This weekend is all about STREET FIGHTER 6, both World Tour mode and Online matches.
See you guys there.
Cheers and happy gaming weekend to us all

@astro911 Hi friend. So now your speaking my languange.
Those two are my kind of games.
They always Run is a game that completely caught me by surprise by how good it is. Great atmosphere also.
Same thing with Dex, even though Dex is more narrative driven, wich is good. kinda like Deus Ex, wich I´m also a fan of.
I´m a sucker for metroidVania style games as well as sci-fi and Cyberpunk style.
Played both on PC and absolutely recommend them both.
As for Death Stranding, just play it when you feel like it.
Cheers mate

@Th3solution Hey there friend.
Jedi Survivor is exactly what a sequel should be like..... Minus the performance issues.
I´m playing on Jedi Grand Master so it is pretty difficult in some battles.
Like, I have no idea how am I going to defeat two Rancors and two Ogdo Bogdo from two different Tears.....
But yeah, the gameplay is very good, love the mobility and the different lightsaber stances you get.
The new map could be better, but you can fast travel now.
Oh, and the Confused Jedi mind trick is a must when you face multiple opponents.
I think I´m close to the end now.
Don´t actualy want it to end though.....
Cheers and have a good one

@astro911 Hey there friend.
That is pretty much the game in a nutshell.
The hole idea is to increase your social ranking and getting new upgrades, such as vehicles, weapons and armour.
I for one got very addicted to carry goods all around, getting a high score, getting more materials and build a bunch of things to help improve the community.
That was also a big thing, everyone would create and build stuff to help other Porters.
One of the best uses of integrated online in a singleplayer game.
That being said, the gamellop might not be for everyone.
Hope it eventualy clicks with you. At least for the story, wich is absolutely bonkers..... It is a Kojima game after all 😜
Cheers and have a good one

Hi there fellow gamers.
STREET FIGHTER 6 OPEN BETA....... That´s it for the weekend 😉
Cheers and happy gaming weekend to us all

@lolwhatno Hey there friend
Thanks for the words.
Haven´t been around much, but I´m still watching the new stuff in gaming.
Kinda busy with work and family, the usual.
Can´t stop playing Jedi Survivor and Zelda TOTK.
These games are so addicting. Always something else to explore and discover. I just love games like these.
Hope everything is going welll with you to.
Cheers and have a good one
