On PS5 I just bought Star Wars Outlaws on sale started that last night and I'll be playing Lost Records later with the Mrs. On Xbox still playing Avowed about 50 hours in and nearing the end now absolutely loved my time with it the world is beautiful and just fun to explore.
Still playing Avowed close to 40 hours in and I'm just finishing up the 3rd areas side quests and bounties honestly don't want it to end the world is just fun to explore and it's packed with things to find.
On PS5 I'll be playing some Dying Light 2 co-op with a mate and maybe some High On Life. On Xbox I'm trying to finish Sniper Elite Resistance and Far Cry New Dawn before Avowed on Tuesday. I've also still got to finish Visions of Mana but got really bored about halfway through and I've not went back for a couple weeks.
On PS5 I'm still on Visions of Mana it's starring to feel a little repetitive now I've also started High On Life humour is a bit hit and miss but I'm enjoying it. On Xbox Sniper Elite Resistance and Black Ops 6. Also playing Medieval Dynasty don't usually enjoy these types of games but I've put close to 30 hours into it so far and barely scratched the surface really like it.
It can take me years to complete some games Witcher 3 took me about 3 years playing it on and off just for the base game I've still never played the dlc.
Struggled with the first game so probably a pass from me it looks fantastic but I've got a low tolerance for frustration and the first game just pissed me off lol.
On PS5 trying to get back into Visions of Mana and maybe finish Sniper Elite 5. On Xbox I'm nearly finished Indiana Jones and I'll probably play some Black Ops 6. Indy is fantastic but I've ran into some bugged achievements near the end of the game which is annoying.
On PS5 I'm playing DA Veilguard about 35 hours in and I'm enjoying it more than i thought i would I've also started Visions of Mana and playing a bit of FC 25. On Xbox still playing Black Ops 6 and need to get back to Indiana jones.
On PS5 I'm still trying to finish Dragon Age Inquisition so i can start Veilguard. On Xbox more Black Ops 6 and Indiana Jones absolutely loving Indy so far i spent almost 10 hours in the Vatican level before heading to Gizeh.
On PS5 I'm still trying to finish Dragon Age Inquisition but it just keeps going lol bought Veilguard from Amazon for £35 so I'll start that whenever i finish Inquisition. On Xbox I'm still playing Black Ops 6 and tempted to buy the early access for Indiana Jones.
On PS5 I'm still trying to finish Dragon Age Inquisition on Xbox I'm playing Stalker 2 and Black Ops 6 and I've also just started Ni No Kuni on Switch. It's snowing in Scotland today so plenty of gaming.
@OldGamer999 There's plenty of videos online showing the frame rate dropping way below 60fps on Series X so people aren't just being negative for the sake of it.
@Medic_alert I have every sympathy for them and honestly it's a miracle they even got the game released but it could have done with being delayed again till early next year to give them more time to get the performance a bit more stable.
Playing Dead Island 2 and Horizon remastered on PS5 Horizon is gorgeous really enjoying going through it again. I'm also really tempted to buy DA Veilguard. On Xbox I'll try and finish the Black Ops 6 campaign.
Wish some of the multiplayer maps were bigger tbh they're all mostly tiny and the spawns are really bad. Campaign is excellent so far so much better than MW3.
I've played this on and off since launch it's actually pretty fun but it's definitely losing players fast and they've still got netcode issues that have been there since the first beta.
I've just finished Star Wars Outlaws on Xbox and Under The Waves on PS5 now trying to decide what to play next. I'm seriously thinking about buying Stellar Blade or Dragon's Dogma 2 but i should really try and clear some of my backlog.
Under the waves started it the other day and really enjoying it it's quite relaxing just exploring the ocean. On Xbox I'm trying to finish Star Wars outlaws and playing Far Cry 5 Vietnam dlc.
Been playing since Tuesday subbed to Ubisoft plus for a month to play and It's not really clicked with me yet it's OK but I'm not loving it like i thought i would.
I've been playing the closed beta for New World Aeternum and I'm surprised to say I'm quite enjoying it so far. Also working my way through Outcast New Beginning but it's one of the most glitchy games I've ever played which is a shame as it's actually quite fun. On Xbox I've just started Kona.
I bought the PS4 pro but don't think I'll be buying this there's not been enough quality games especially first party wise to justify another expensive console purchase for me.
I'm playing Outcast New Beginning bought it for £20 it's actually decent a little rough and the story isn't great but I'm enjoying it. Might play some Crew Motorfest later.
The update has caused quite a few issues the frame rate is dropping quite badly and it's extremely laggy and hit detection is still all over the place.
On PS5 Dragon's Dogma 2 I'm going to buy it after playing the demo/trial more companies should do this. I'll also play a bit of XDefiant which is surprisingly decent though the hit detection is still pretty bad at times. On Xbox Still Wakes the Deep nearly finished it and it's been OK bit disappointing tbh.
I find their games too hard personally, but that's because i get frustrated easily still don't think they should dumb down their games to please everyone. I've just accepted that From's games aren't for me.
I finally started Resident Evil 4 remake yesterday so I'll continue with that and I'm going to go back to Fallout 4 after a break. On Xbox I've been playing Still wakes the deep it's OK but glad it's on Gamepass.
I'm thinking about trying to get back into Alan Wake 2 this weekend and probably a bit of Fallout 4 and XDefiant. I've also been playing Settlers new allies but I'm not sure if I'll continue it's not really grabbed me yet.
Started a Euro 2024 with Scotland last night on FC 24 managed to qualify for the last 16 so probably more of that and Fallout 4 just bought the dlc. I've also been playing a bit of XDefiant and it's actually quite good apart from the wonky hit detection.

Re: STALKER 2's Technical Troubles Likely Fixed by the Time It Comes to PS5
@Medic_alert They're not making the game in the middle of a warzone though because most of the studio relocated to Prague to continue developing it.

Re: Report Finds Lack of Star Wars Outlaws Sales Disturbing
I played it for £14.99 through Ubisoft plus maybe them adding games day one to a subscription service also hurt sales.

Re: Star Wars Outlaws' Rescue Roadmap Provides a Snapshot of Modern PS5 Gaming
