Arizona Sunshine 2 VR - finished the story. Had a really fun time with this game, so satisfying to pop zombie heads with the guns, or better yet use a machete
Ori and the Will of the Wisps - going slowly with this game. Love everything about it, except maybe that is a bit difficult at times in a way that doesnt add anything but frustration imo.
TLOU - So its finally time to replay the TLOU games. It´ll be the forth time playing part 1 from start to finish but only my second time playing part 2, which I havent touched since I platinumed it at release. Really looking forward to both games, they are so, so good imo. I started with Left Behind this time, and even if I know what happens it still gets to me. Going to be such an emotional ride this but an awesome one as well.
Ven VR adventure - Picked this up in the sale. Its pretty fun, well worth a look!
Might be time to get Robocop, but I want to replay TLOU 1 and 2 in time for FF 7 Rebirth... argh these hard choices that we have to constantly make, its exhausting
Final fantasy 16 - Its done, I´ve played through new game + and the platinum trophy is mine 😊 Imo an amazing game, best final fantasy since FF 7 for me and its nice to see the series return to such heights after the good but not great FF games in between. FF 7 Remake was to drawn out and unnessecarily padded which drags it down compared to the original imo. FF 7 Rebirth has some serious potential though, really looking forward to that 😊
Hot wheels 2 - Also done and platinumed. Enjoyed it for what is was, more of the same as the first game. Easier platinum though, thats something as least 😊
Ori and the Blind Forest - Also finished. Love the game, such a great atmosphere and soundtrack and a nice story too.
Currently playing
Arizona Sunshine 2 VR - Im having a blast with this one. Really fun to play, the dog companion is awesome and the guns and melee weapons are great.
Ori and the Will of the Wisp - I was thinking of playing Resi 2 but felt I really wanted to go on with more Ori. Love this game as well, played it on the Switch the first time but now Im playing on the xbox.
Skull and Bones - Yeah, tried the open beta. Not impressed. Let it sink quickly and move on Ubi.
I would consider buying games I played on Playstation first but are now presumably Xbox exclusive like Hellblade or Elder Scrolls just to keep them in the same ecosystem and also get that Platinum trophy but I also have an Xbox so theres no need for me to buy anything. If I didnt have an Xbox then halo, Gears of War, Fable and Awowed would be games I would buy in a deep sale!
FF 16 - nearing the end of my ng+ playthrough. Final Fantasy difficulty isnt that hard thankfully, just makes the fights take longer. Playing the main story and focusing on that makes a great game even better imo
Vertigo 2 - So I’ve hit a gamebreaking bug where the game doesnt let me continue meaning I would have to replay the last chapter and hope I dont run on to the same bug, ***** that though, I’ll wait for a patch or five and return to the game then. Shame, its a fun game but some bugs are a pain.
Arizona Sunshine 2 - picked this up in the sale to play instead of Vertigo 2. I’ve played about an hour so far and its really fun, lots of humor and satisfying gameplay. So awesome to whack a zombie in the head with a machete and having to rip it loose after, or dualwield pistols when there are lots fin zombie brains to splatter.
Ori and the blind forest - Felt the need to play something on my series S, so Im replying this awesome game. Love it!
Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 - enjoying it despite it being pretty much more of the same from the first game. I only play short sessions which I think helps a lot, it would get very repetetive very quickly otherwise.
Final Fantasy 16 - So I´ve finished the story and all the side missions and all that. What a great game. The story got me good. So good in fact I decided to jump straight to ng+ and I´m really enjoying it a lot the second time, just focusing on the best parts of the game. My second favorite FF game after the original FF 7 but guessing the FF7 remakes might change that especially given how good rebirth looks
Vertigo 2 - I´ve been playing this more since last week. Its a fun, goofy, silly game and its very impressive for a one man job. Its a bit buggy though still so even if I have a lot of fun with it I would recommend waiting for some patches and maybe a sale.
Epic Roller Coasters VR - So I found a free to play roller coaster game for VR, you get some tracks to play but have to pay for most of them. Sweet ***** god you´ll get motion sickness from this game. I´m not sensitive at all but barely managed a ride without vomiting so you´ve all been warned
The obvious but boring answer is of course to give me the choice between traveling and exploring your world or a good fast travel mechanic if Im not in the mood for it. Games like Skyrim or Avatar are an absolute joy to explore but that doesnt mean I always want to go on foot/horse/whatever from one end of the map to the other when I have to.
Final Fantasy 16 - Still mainly playing this amazing game. I havent been this hooked on a FF game since the original FF 7! Close to the end of the story, but dragging it on a bit by doing the not so great side missions etc. Might as well go for the platinum trophy down the line, just cause its such a good game imo.
TLOU 2 - got the upgrade and tried it out just to see how it plays and it feels and looks really great, but it then already did that. Still, perfect excuse to play it again, but not yet. Will play the part 1 remake first 🙂
Vertigo 2 VR - havent really played it since Im all in on FF 16 but I tried it for maybe half an hour and it seems really fun so I'll go all in on this next.
Final Fantasy XVI the journey continues. Im really enjoying it and I really like the story. The game is a bit unevenly paced though, the epic parts followed by slow parts with pretty uninteresting quests maybe could have been done better. And the sidequests are not the highlights of the game…. It really looks great this game, both artistically and technically very impressive. Great game all in all, cant wait to play more and find out where the story goes.
Hot Wheels 2 needed a game in between when not able to play for very long and Hot Wheels 2 fits in perfect. Is basically more of the same, so if you liked the first game you’ll like this one but dont expect much more than that.
I’ve put Prince of Persia on the to-play list, liked the demo thats out. Also might pick up Vertigo 2 for VR as a game in between sessions of FF 16
Loved Hogwarts Legacy, so hoping for more games like it. Would be cool to dona game in another school perhaps, dunno how they keep Hogwarts fresh in a new game.
Avatar - Frontiers of Pandora - I’ve finished and platinumed the game. Such a rich and beautiful world, I’ll be returning to it now and then to just enjoy it. As for story, that was ok but nothing special. The platinum required the usual ubi collectibles but it wasnt too bad. All in all I really enjoyed the game 🙂
Elden Ring I’ve finally played it, got it for the son as a christmas present 😁 after two-three hours I concluded that while more to my liking than previous Souls-games its not for me. The kid loves it though, and I’ve watched him play a lot. He and some of his friends play and help each other and are having a blast so thats awesome. I can totally see the quality and greatness of the game, so well deserved top spots last year.
Final Fantasy XVI A game I’ve been looking forward to and damn, it starts off super strong. Such epic fights and some great cutscenes, good and engaging story so far and it looks really good. Cant wait to play more 😀
Thanks for the entertaining comments 😂 if Starfield is nr 1 over on PureXbox you know Spider-Man 2 has to be nr 1 here. We need balance in the universe 😂
I havent played BG 3 yet for more than an hour of the trial but that was very good so looking forward to playing it sooner or later!
More Avatar for me, nearing the end of the story but I dont want to be done just yet so Im doing sidequests and exploring. Damn they’ve created a fantastic world for us, cant get enough of it 🤩
Avatar - Frontiers of Pandora - Im really enjoying the game. Like a lot. Its not perfect,but the world they've created is so amazing and so fun and magical to explore it makes up for a few shortcomings regarding some quests and other minor things imo 🙂
On the Series S I've been enjoying some short sessions of Dying Light, which I picked up in the sale for the son. Still a great game, he loves it too so Im hoping for some co-op sessions over christmas 😀
Avatar Frontiers of Pandora – since last week I´ve mainly been playing Avatar and I must say I really like it. First off, it looks amazing. There have been some jaw dropping wow moments so far, like the first time you exit the tunnel and step out in the jungle, the first time its night (memerizing), first time getting on your Ikran… its just a very good looking game and running through the dense jungle makes for great immersion imo. As far as the gameplay goes, hunting, fishing and gathering fruits and resources feels like a natural part of the life on Pandora where as in the Far Cry games it can feel a little wierd and out of place and plastered on. Its also cool imo that the pollution and damage the facilities and factories does to the nature is very obvious and it feels really good to blow them up and see the jungle return to normal. The gun/bowplay could be a little bit sharper but its ok. The story is also ok, but the star of the game imo is Pandora itself. Cant wait to play more 😊
@K1LLEGAL its probably because there are more and better games on Playstation in peoples opinion and even if GamePass is great there have been very few great games in recent years that cant be played on Playstation as well.
AC Mirage - done and platinumed! It really grew on me, liked the story and the gameplay. Nice to get a smaller more focused AC again, as I've said before. Also nice to not have any present day sections for a change. I hope they stick to games like this or for example Unity for future AC games and make the big and bloated games like Valhalla apart from the AC universe as those games would be great as RPGs by themselves and I felt like the AC part of them was more or less just smeared on.
Cyberpunk 2077 - I had to try the latest update 🙂 took the metro to my apartment for a date with Panam ❤️ Just very cool additions which adds a lot to the immersion of the game.
Journey to foundation - despite it being a port which doesnt fully utilise the power of the PSVR 2 (it doesnt look as good and sharp as other games for example) I like the story and the gameplay is good enough if not great. There are better games for the PSVR 2 though, but its a pretty decent game!
Avatar Frontiers of Pandora - I couldnt help myself 😂 Ever since watching the first movie I've wanted a game that lets you explore Pandora and even though I've only played for an hour so far I almost got blown away by how great it looks. Just wonderful! And I havent even played it at night time so looking forward to that. It really is a far cry game though so if you dont like those games chances are you wont really enjoy this one. I've got a feeling I'll love it though. More to follow next week 😀
Yeah, I’ve played about an hour and really like it so far and I feel like I’ll really enjoy the whole game. Pandora looks so awesome already. And Im not tired of the ubi formula and I like the far cry games still but I guess Im in the minority here given the comments 😅
AC Mirage – still going strong, still like that its back to the old formula. A bit closer to the end of the story but I’ve gotten caught up in a lot of side content, which I love doing, but I´m aiming to have the game platinumed sometime next week.
PSVR 2 Kayak – so they added a christmas theme to the Kings Canyon track and its pretty nice. Check it out if you have the game!
PSVR 2 Journey to Foundation – I picked it up in the sale but just barely started playing it. It seems decent enough, not as good looking as some other games perhaps but I plan to play more after finishing AC Mirage so maybe a fuller report next week 😊
Also want to play Remnant 2 on Gamepass, but not sure I´ll have the time for it.
@PixelDragon Always nice when a game clicks. Thought it would for me but no… Im going to try Forspoken someday, it should be pretty much what I like in a game but we’ll see. Waiting for it to be ”free” on plus 🤓
@PixelDragon how do you like Gotham Knights? I really want to like it, but after trying twice I gave up after a couple of hours both times. Maybe Im not doing it any favours comparing it to the Arkham games, or playing it solo…
Trine 5 – finished and platinumed. I liked it a lot, it looks great, fun puzzles, nice variation to the different levels and its couch co-op if you want to.
AC Mirage – nice to play a smaller and more focused AC again, after the great but big installments we´ve had. Baghdad makes for a nice setting, really interesting historically and I´ve read many of the games codex entries. It looks good enough but not great, its a cross-gen game after all. Gameplay and mechanics are good but not great due to some jankiness and some very minor bugs and getting stuck on things, Ubi should improve these imo. The story is entertaining enough, laid out over different cases to solve. I´ve about halfway through I think and so far its good. I think I liked AC Unity and Syndicate a bit more but we´ll see in the end. Either way nice to have a real AC game again, and hoping Ubi can make the big games a new IP instead and not call them AC.
Very happy for the great sales number for Sony but also worried Xbox is doing so poorly. Competition is good for gamers. Also worried what crazy moves Microsoft will pull to try and take a bigger market share, by that I mean what will they buy and make Xbox/gamepass exclusive.
As a parent with limited access to a TV at times this would be awesome as I could be near the family but play on this instead of watching an episode of Bluey for the 100th time. I´ve used remote play on the computer etc but I this would probably work better. And I dont want another time consuming wonderful apparatus like the Steam Deck so this would be perfect. (I do, I just dont dare to get myself one because that would f my life up for real )
Dead Space remake - made some progress since last week, Im about half way now. Really like this remake, keeps a lot of the good stuff from the original but adds enought new things to keep it fresh. Impressed by myself that I havent died yet. From a heartattack in real life, that is. Ive managed to die a couple of times in the game despite playing on easy. Not impressive that:)
Jusant - small bits here and there, but mostly on the backburner.
Trine 5 - picked this up since I´ve liked the previous games and this is more of that in a good way. I like the puzzles and finding all the hidden treasures is really fun.
PSVR 2 - aside from VR games I started Spider-Man 2 with the PSVR 2 on and swung and glideflew (is that even a word?) my way around New York. That was pretty incedible. Jumping straight down from a tall building is not for the faint of heart If you have PSVR 2 and Spider-Man, try it
@Mauzuri you’re not exactly giving good reasons to dump Playstation 😂 but hey, its your choice, hope you enjoy it. Still dont get these types if comments though, just stop playing on your playstation and sell it. Hoping to get more people to abandon what you consider the worst console with posts like that? Just seems like a childish fanboy comment to me.
Spider-Man 2 - finished and platinumed it earlier in the week. Amazing game, amazing developer and amazing Spider-Men 🙂
Dead Space - great remake. Playing on easy though, makes it less scary otherwise I would probably have a heartattack 😅
Jusant - nice and relaxing. Playing shorter sessions, which makes it last longer and not get repetetive
Call of the sea - finished this yesterday. Nice puzzler with a story and a setting that I liked. Some puzzles were hard though. (Could just be that Im not that smart though 😆)
Im interested in the game but will wait for a deep sale or for it to be on a game service. So many games right now Im sure I want to play so I’ll happily wait games like this out!
Played the open beta and had fun, very cool destruction to buildings in the game. Thinking back I seem to recall the voices being a bit meh. This would explain it. Shame they didnt use real voice actors.

@Sanquine Arizona Sunshine 2 is very fun, feels great when popping zombie heads 🙂plus you can dual wield 🤓
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 514
@Loamy its a great ending, very much worth it. Its really in the last part of the game it all makes sense 🙂
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 514
Almost the same games as the last couple of weeks
FF 16 - nearing the end of my ng+ playthrough. Final Fantasy difficulty isnt that hard thankfully, just makes the fights take longer. Playing the main story and focusing on that makes a great game even better imo

Re: Poll: Are You Playing Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League?

Re: Dragon's Dogma 2 Director Says Travel Isn't Boring, Your Game Is
The obvious but boring answer is of course to give me the choice between traveling and exploring your world or a good fast travel mechanic if Im not in the mood for it.

@PixelDragon how do you like Gotham Knights? I really want to like it, but after trying twice I gave up after a couple of hours both times. Maybe Im not doing it any favours comparing it to the Arkham games, or playing it solo…
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 504
Trine 5 – finished and platinumed. I liked it a lot, it looks great, fun puzzles, nice variation to the different levels and its couch co-op if you want to.
AC Mirage – nice to play a smaller and more focused AC again, after the great but big installments we´ve had. Baghdad makes for a nice setting, really interesting historically and I´ve read many of the games codex entries. It looks good enough but not great, its a cross-gen game after all. Gameplay and mechanics are good but not great due to some jankiness and some very minor bugs and getting stuck on things, Ubi should improve these imo. The story is entertaining enough, laid out over different cases to solve. I´ve about halfway through I think and so far its good. I think I liked AC Unity and Syndicate a bit more but we´ll see in the end. Either way nice to have a real AC game again, and hoping Ubi can make the big games a new IP instead and not call them AC.
Re: Sorry Xbox, But Even PS Portal Is Outselling You in Spain
Very happy for the great sales number for Sony but also worried Xbox is doing so poorly. Competition is good for gamers. Also worried what crazy moves Microsoft will pull to try and take a bigger market share, by that I mean what will they buy and make Xbox/gamepass exclusive.

Re: Poll: Did You Buy a PS Portal?
As a parent with limited access to a TV at times this would be awesome as I could be near the family but play on this instead of watching an episode of Bluey for the 100th time. I´ve used remote play on the computer etc but I this would probably work better. And I dont want another time consuming wonderful apparatus like the Steam Deck so this would be perfect. (I do, I just dont dare to get myself one because that would f my life up for real )
Re: Sony's Big PS Store Black Friday Sale Starts This Week
Hoping for a big sale on FF XVI, and/or a sale on Balders Gate 3 🤓
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 502
Dead Space remake - made some progress since last week, Im about half way now. Really like this remake, keeps a lot of the good stuff from the original but adds enought new things to keep it fresh. Impressed by myself that I havent died yet. From a heartattack in real life, that is. Ive managed to die a couple of times in the game despite playing on easy. Not impressive that:)
Jusant - small bits here and there, but mostly on the backburner.
Trine 5 - picked this up since I´ve liked the previous games and this is more of that in a good way. I like the puzzles and finding all the hidden treasures is really fun.
PSVR 2 - aside from VR games I started Spider-Man 2 with the PSVR 2 on and swung and glideflew (is that even a word?) my way around New York. That was pretty incedible. Jumping straight down from a tall building is not for the faint of heart If you have PSVR 2 and Spider-Man, try it
Re: PS5 Slim 'Not That Much Smaller', According to This Teardown Video
@Mauzuri you’re not exactly giving good reasons to dump Playstation 😂 but hey, its your choice, hope you enjoy it. Still dont get these types if comments though, just stop playing on your playstation and sell it. Hoping to get more people to abandon what you consider the worst console with posts like that? Just seems like a childish fanboy comment to me.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 501
Spider-Man 2 - finished and platinumed it earlier in the week. Amazing game, amazing developer and amazing Spider-Men 🙂
Dead Space - great remake. Playing on easy though, makes it less scary otherwise I would probably have a heartattack 😅
Jusant - nice and relaxing. Playing shorter sessions, which makes it last longer and not get repetetive
Call of the sea - finished this yesterday. Nice puzzler with a story and a setting that I liked. Some puzzles were hard though. (Could just be that Im not that smart though 😆)
Re: Huge PS5 Update Makes Immortals of Aveum Better Than Ever
Im interested in the game but will wait for a deep sale or for it to be on a game service. So many games right now Im sure I want to play so I’ll happily wait games like this out!

Re: The Finals Opted for AI Voices Because 'It Gets Us Far Enough in Terms of Quality'
Played the open beta and had fun, very cool destruction to buildings in the game. Thinking back I seem to recall the voices being a bit meh. This would explain it. Shame they didnt use real voice actors.
