bit gutted there is no couch co-op though. my 11yo daughter loves the first 2 but hated that we kept having to swap controllers to have a go. we would much rather be able to play it together. and no I am not buying her her own ps5 and putting her in another room! haha!
there was some interesting looking co-op stuff in Out of Words and Lego Voyagers. And MIO looked kinda interesting too. But a lot of dull soulslike, JRPG and team shooty games. Everyone hyped for Resi Evil but I have struggled a bit with the last 2 - just personal. Looks good though.
it had me at James Bond. nothing else really grabbed me. i am interested in the look of Baby Steps and Cairn but not sure they are really my type of games.
nothing that blows me away BUT i actually have interest in playing all 4 of them. i can't imagine playing any of them for hours on end but it will certainly be a fun June weekend
damn, i was really keen for this one and was hoping for a 7 or more. may park this one for the timebeing as i have a lot on my list to purchase (and to play)
Been a mental weekend but have downloaded Balatro.
Plus picked up the Mafia Definitive Edition Trilogy for $19.99 in Australia so will jump into that in with the aim of completing before Old Country drops.
Pretty keen to see how Precinct, Deliver at All Costs, Mouse PI and Reanimal turn out.
I like the idea of an early style GTA but from the police perspective
Deliver just looks like fun!
I love the art style of PI and am back into FPS
And I am a huge fan of Little Nightmares
Looks amazing. Obviously. BUT wish developers would take more cues from Asian (and particulary Chinese) developers actually giving us a blend of cutscenes and gameplay in the trailers every step of the development process.
Finished Split Fiction with my 11yo daughter (who is a way better gamer than I am - haha). We absolutely loved it so grabbed It Takes Two, which is on sale for $20 here in Australia and got an hour or so into that with her. Shaping up to be equally fun.
would be a good addition BUT played and enjoyed the ps4 version already. would be no real reason to play the upgrade. definitely recommend to those who haven't played it though to smash it out on a rainy Sunday.
love indiana jones and adventure games but I suck at stealth. did have this game near the top of my list to buy in 2025 so given it is stealth heavy will i be disappointed if i purchase??
as someone who is late to the ps5 party i am finding premium incredibly good value. every month i am finding at least 1 or 2 games i want to have a crack at. as a result i have a backlog of at least 20 games. yet to buy a full price game.
was interested in Blue Prince but i reckon it is absolutely going to frustrate the hell out of me, so I will give the golf a go, getting into the open world malarkey so hogwarts is on the list and a bit of fps action in Battlefield. haven't played the 1st lost records but given i have it in the catalogue i will get the conclusion too.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 584
Detroit Become Human. Really enjoying this. Appreciate it is more interactive movie than game but I am definitely sucked in. It looks great too!
Re: LEGO Voyagers Looks Like an Adorable Co-Op Puzzle Platformer on PS5, PS4
Right up my alley. And 1 of the few bright spots of creativity in a sea of soulslike, JRPG and Multi player shooters on display at Summer Fest

Re: PS Plus Premium Adds New Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, Civ 7 Demos
Pumped. 2 games have been super keen to try but not sure if they would be for me. Instant downloads to see.

Hi my name is Old_Gamer74 and I am a Balatro addict.
It has been 30 seconds since my last run.
I should have heeded the warnings here!!
Re: The Midnight Walk (PSVR2) - Dark, Melancholic, and Hauntingly Beautiful
@babybilly heard. reckon i will give it a crack.
Re: The Midnight Walk (PSVR2) - Dark, Melancholic, and Hauntingly Beautiful
@Discol76 from what i understood this game can be played with or without VR.
Re: The Midnight Walk (PSVR2) - Dark, Melancholic, and Hauntingly Beautiful
i was kinda interested in this one but is there any point without VR?

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 579
Wolfenstein 2: The New Colussus. Because why not. It is so over the top I am having an absolute blast.
Going to hit Old Blood and Youngblood afterwards too, despite the mixed reviews - especially the latter.
Anyone any thoughts on those 2?
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for May 2025 Announced
Balatro has been sitting in my shopping cart for ages, so very happy
Other 2 are just bonuses that I will have a little look at

Re: 60+ PS5, PS4 Games to Buy in PS Store's Big Games, Big Deals Sale
Here in Australia we have got 65% of 'It Takes Two'. That was a no-brainer purchase for me.
Re: These 14+ New PS5, PS4 Games Are Coming Out Next Week (21st-27th April)
