Definitely. Arkane's stuff in general is great. IGN gave it a straight 10.0, which is almost unheard of. 

 

Unfortunately I don't have a PS5, rather a Series X - but it will eventually make its way across, y'know with Microsoft owning the publishers and all.

I loved Prey as well, they're a great studio with a very unique look to their games and they all play very well.

Started playing through the South Park games again over the weekend after realising I somehow never played the DLC for Fractured But Whole, so decided to just play through them both again

 

Just finished Stick of Truth after about 8 hours of playtime, for some reason since I first played it back in 2014 some of the scenes have been censored! Although not game ruining it does make those specific parts of the games disappointing, still a lot of fun though!

I’m embracing the digital age but hate paying over £40 for a game so the current Switch eshop sale is nice.

 

I picked up Super Mario Odyssey and Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze for £33 each.

 

Both seem mega games so far. 100 moons collected in Mario and up to world 2’s boss in DKC.

Arx Fatalis and D2R at the moment.

I'd like to say New World, but I've been in a server queue for 3 hours...

All a bit odd considering Amazon's profile is the world of providing server space!

Yakuza: Like a Dragon is currently on sale on Steam for another couple of hours, if you're looking for a triple A open worlder there's also a sale on the Sony PC ports on there right now too.  I'm very tempted to finally cave on picking up Days Gone.

I definitely recommend Days Gone, takes 2-3 hours to get into but after that you get sucked into playing for hours on end, think it was 50 hours+ to just finish the main game as well

Have you played Red Dead Redemption 2?

Its not my last trophy but i just dont see the point in carrying on. I got to 117 hours. The ending with the Animus is very interesting so make sure you carry on. Sigurds missions become very interesting

I was ready to throw the controller out yesterday.  This game is testing my patience in certain areas.  The cairn puzzle in Eurvicscire was ridiculously annoying.  I had it at one point of trying and then messed the button press and it all collapsed.  Fuming!  Took me about an hour in the end.  Then there's the chest in York that needs 3 keys.  Have 2 now but seriously to travel so far just to unlock one chest?  Takes the ****.  I'm at 92 hours now.

I second Days Gone. Cant believe i enjoyed it as much as i did. The hordes are genuinely terrifying.

Bloody hell never seen it like that. Proper cash cow .

Yes, i wasn't keen on the previous RDR so i was reluctant to get it. Caved in and got it and was so bored the first couple of hours. I was on the verge of selling it when i thought i would give it another go. Once i got past the first 5 hours and the map opened up it turned into one of the best games ive played. Truly an incredible game.

Some of the Cairn stones are so frustrating. I managed to do them all but, like you, i spent plenty of time wanting to lob my controller out the window. Yea the chest needing the 3 keys was annoying also. I just got to the point where to platinum it i would have to spend so many hours just fishing. I hate fishing in real life so i thought **** that

Fractured but Whole and the 2 DLC's finished! Much longer than Stick of Truth as this took about 26 hours to complete but that was me being very thorough and getting all collectables etc. Just 3 trophies left to get but will need another playthrough which can wait for a while.

 

Anyone who likes South Park / turn based RPG's I would suggest giving it a go, I imagine you can get them pretty cheap now (pretty sure you can get Stick of Truth free with Fractured but Whole as well)

 

Think it is finally time to jump back into AC Valhalla, haven't touch it since Cyberpunk came out in December 2020 and played a lot of different games since then so will be great fun trying to get used to it again

Witcher 3 but Nick All Stars is out this weekend sooooo

[FerrisBueller]

Finally got around to playing RDR2. One of the best Story Campaigns I’ve ever played, loved it. Playing a bit of the online mode now, fairly enjoyable.

 

Played one game of the free PES game, hated everything about it.

About 3 minutes in honesty. I haven’t played a PES game in about 10 years and was quite excited, can’t comment on the previous paid ones, but it is dreadful, even as a free title it’s just so bad in every aspect.

i always loved pes. its been tough watching it steadily decline year after year, this was the final nail. i could probably have learned the gameplay more and given it better chance but the blue and yellow everything, despite being horrible looking actually gave me a headache.. but my wife gifted me a copy of fifa 22, despite me saying i wasnt getting it this year because of them cutting the new stuff out of the PC version, and i have discovered in career mode , you can create a team and the mode it almost identical to PES master league, and im loving the nostalgia of it.

I was quite surprised to see how downhill it has gone seeing as they have started picking up more and more licences, especially some of the exclusive Italian ones so even Fifa can’t use their team names etc.

Really?  How deep is it? I used to love FIFA career modes as a kid long before the games got ruined by the focus on online gambling. Haven't owned one in like a decade now but may reconsider if there's actually a campaign mode worth playing again.

well i always try out the fifa career mode each year and never get very far, im about 15 games in now with my squad of made up players plus a couple of guys i transferred in, pre and post match press conferences, training programs and schedules, player development is going well so far, got a couple of nice young prospects in the youth ranks too as well as scouting more. i stuck the team in league 2 and chose a half star rated squad with £1m starting budget (the lowest you can choose, it doesnt go very far) im honestly really enjoying chilling out on it in the evenings after doing the online fut thing for a bit. playing on world class which is my default setting and drawing and losing some games keeps it interesting. 
i think a large part of it is how much improved the AI is this year, games are genuinely good and dont feel at all cheaty when the AI scores a goal. first time i have settled into a career mode in many years.

Is Castolo still banging them in with assists from Minanda and Espimas? 

 

Because if not it can get in the bin. 

[The Horse's Mouth]

They released efootball far too early, I can get past the graphics looking like shit if there was actually something to do
