I'm having to redownload everything on to my PS5 had to reset it this morning because none of my controllers would connect to the console. Hopefully get some Borderlands 3 in when I've reinstalled everything.
Really enjoyed the first game but couldn't get into Dying Light 2 this looks pretty good but I'll probably be waiting for a sale next year some time before buying it.
Finished the main story for Tales of Arise last night trying to decide if i should go for the platinum or not. I'll also hopefully get back to Star Wars Outlaws today and play some more of Planet Zoo.
Restarted Tales of Arise during the week probably go between that and Star Wars Outlaws. I also bought Maniac and it's great fun super cheap too think it cost me less than £4.
It looks great and I'll be buying it day one if it's as good as the first 2 games I'll be happy. Mafia 3 was OK but super repetitive and had some bugs they never bothered to fix.
Just got the platinum for Horizon Zero Dawn remastered trying to decide what to play next from my backlog and resist the urge to buy Kingdom Come 2 gold edition since it's on sale.
I'm about halfway through Horizon Zero Dawn remake so probably continue with that and still playing AC Shadows. I'm also tempted to buy Dragon's Dogma 2 in the sale how's the performance on base PS5 now?
I'm finally trying to work through my backlog finished Tiny Tina's Wonderlands last night so back to AC Shadows today and hopefully can get it finished before next weekend.
Trying to get back into AC Shadows I'm about 80 hours in and haven't even seen half the map yet. On Xbox I'm halfway through Doom it's the first of the newer Doom games that really clicked for me. I also started Sand Land when it was added to plus so maybe try and play some more of that seems pretty decent so far only 4 hours in though.
Got the platinum for Oblivion remastered so back to my backlog either going to continue Star Wars Outlaws Sand Land or maybe Days Gone remastered. Also resubbed to Gamepass so i can play Doom and Clair Obscur. So many games not enough time.
I'd say it's in my top 5 games maybe even top 3 loved it ended up reading a couple of the books after and plan to read the rest just an amazing world to explore.
I've got 3 trophies to go for Oblivion platinum so probably focus on that really enjoyed it even with all the bugs and performance issues. Might resub to Gamepass and start Doom.
Oblivion remastered first time I've ever played it properly and I'm absolutely loving it I'm about 50 hours in not done much of the story and just trying to get all the guild questlines done.
I'll be going between Oblivion remastered AC Shadows and Days Gone remastered i really need to stop starting so many massive open world games at the same time lol. I was playing Clair Obscur on Xbox but my Gamepass expired.
Finished Sniper Elite 5 yesterday and still playing AC Shadows and some PGA tour on PS5. On Xbox I'm going between Oblivion and Clair Obscur. I might drop Oblivion for now and buy it later in the year for PS5 as it doesn't run very well on Series S.
I watched it with my Mrs who hasn't played the game she knew Joel was going to die but not how or when it happened she was convinced Ellie would save Joel i honestly struggled not to blurt out he's going to die lol.
On PS5 still playing AC Shadows and i decided to give Death Stranding another go and I'm now 20 hours in and really enjoying it bought it a while ago and couldn't get into it but glad i decided to give it another try. On Xbox I'm playing South of Midnight it's fun but the combat is kind of repetitive should hopefully be finished today or tomorrow.
Ac Shadows for me and probably a bit of Black Ops 6 on PS5 and continue Gears 3 replay on Xbox game still holds up pretty well and just makes me want a remastered collection to come to Playstation even more.
I'd have done the same there would be no chance of saving humanity anyway and most of the people alive aren't worth saving tbh certainly not worth sacrificing your daughter for.
Ac Shadows and Black Ops 6 on PS5. Shadows is excellent I'm about 30 hours in and barely scratched the surface trying to fully explore the map and just taking in the views the game looks incredible.
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.

Re: The Order 1886 Could Have Been a Big Trilogy of PlayStation Games

Re: MindsEye Really Does Look Like a Long-Lost PS3 Game
