Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (October 2-3)

Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker (3DS) - I've been playing the spooky levels for Halloween.

Equalicious (Windows Phone) - Haven't played for a few days, will be getting back into it now.

Rayman Fiesta Run (Windows Phone)- Also nearing the halfway point with this as well.

Switch - Continuing my playthrough of Skyward Sword HD! Enjoying it so far!

PS5 - Borderlands 3 with friends!

PC - Yet another playthrough of Battletoads!

Have a good weekend everyone.

Xbox 1: Halo 5 Guardians in prep for Halo infinite and as i wait for Far Cry 6 to unlock.

Ps4: Life Is Strange True Colors and Kena

Switch: Just waiting for Metriod Dread to unlock at midnight

Lost Judgment and Hot Wheels Unleashed

Started up The Evil Within yesterday as part of Game Club and it's pretty good so far. Haven't played much but I'm definitely looking forward to delving more into it this weekend.

Been also playing a lot more on my PS3 lately. After finishing up Tales of Vesperia, I've been for some reason craving more Tales games and so I decided to start up Tales of Xillia, which is so much better than Vesperia in pretty much every aspect so far. On the side, I'll be having some casual fun with Ape Escape and the PS Move since I'm back to playing motion control games now.

Finally, I've been trying to finish up Night in the Woods since I started it up last year when it was added to Game Pass but I never got far into it. Luckily, I bought the game on Switch so I can play it even though it's now left GP. And honestly, the game gets really good later on. I'm very surprised that it's managed to capture my interest now since the opening hours weren't that compelling to me.

Really enjoying Marvels Avengers campaign so that will get most of my time. I'll get some time in on the Halo beta when it's live again tonight, enjoyed it last night but had to restart the game if I ever wanted to change matchmaking. Really want to start Phoenix Point, hopefully this weekend, also got Scarlet Nexus downloaded and still yet to start Aragami 2. No doubt I'll be dropping into Warzone at some point aswell when the squads online.

So.....many.......games.......

Will play Splitgate. Going to start Avengers soon..

Scarlet Nexus after it's surprise addition to Game Pass. Maybe a bit of Halo Infinite as well if I have time during it's scheduled times (still annoying that you can't play it when you want to).

Sable, Art of Rally and Dandy Ace all via Gamepass. And I still need to get back to Deaths Door.

Assassins creed vanhalla
Psychonaughts 2
Then far cry 6 next week.

Played Splitgate again with the guys last night. This weekend I'm hoping to finish up Half-Life 2: Episode 2 and I also just discovered that the Xbox PC version of The Evil Within is basically a low-key remaster that includes the DLC, so I might dip into that if I have any extra time.

Recently finished: Psychonauts 2. I really enjoyed this one, even though Im not a big fan of platformers.

Xbox: Halo Infinite Beta, game feels really good, cant wait for the campaign.
Scarlet Nexus, combat is awesome giving me the same vibes as Astral Chain and the NieR games kind of. Im only 2 chapters in but I can already tell the story is dumb. Still plan to play it all the way through.

Looking forward to: Back4Blood!

Will you be reviewing Xuan Yuan Sword 7 Daniel? This has been on my radar a while now.

On my Series X I’m playing Hot Wheels Unleashed and F1 2021. On my PS5 I’m playing Death Stranding, Deathloop, Kena Bridge of Spirits and Godfall.

Looking forward to playing Far Cry 6 next week. I have the Gold edition preordered for my XSX.

I decided to start Dragon Quest XI a week or so ago to see me through when there weren’t many releases taking my fancy. Then they announced Scarlet Nexus and Avengers on Gsmepass! 🤦🏼‍♂️

Plan on playing a horror game called in sound mind over the weekend, so far so good

I was going to give Avengers a shot but turned ut it was 120GB+ on series X, so now its sitting in my download queue waiting for SSD space that will never be.

Still playing Aragami 2 (just ordered Tenchu Z, will set up my old 360 to play it when it arrives) and walking dead series.

Cannot wait for back 4 blood.

Destiny & Some Halo Beta when on. Going to give Avengers a go at some point now the download is complete.

Ff7r on ps5 and serious sam collection on series x

Im planning on just playing some MCC and work towards getting all the Halo's done before Infinite, in in the early stages of Halo 3 currently. I'll likely jump into FH4 but I'll do that last so i don't get lost just driving around.

Started playing Avengers. It looks good and the campaign seems like it could be cool. But I don’t like the controls and I kind of don’t care about the Avengers. So it’s been deleted. I think I’ll start another play through if Halo 5.

I'm playing Hellblade which is funny because i recently commented that i don't like the game.. I decided to give it a second chance and i'm completely hooked on it. The graphics are absolutely stunning and i love the combat and the puzzles, The game is awesome.. It's so weird how you can play a game and not like it and then like 8 monthes down the road fall in love with it.. I guess it all comes down to where you are in life and the state of mind that your in..

Halo Infinite Technical Preview and Spyro 3 😀

What's Kena like, @RedKnight34? I have a PS5, but I think I might hold out for an Xbox version. If not, it'll be dirt cheap and patched to within an inch of its life by the time I get round to it on the PlayStation...

It’s a Kena Bridge of Spirits kind of weekend for me

@SacredPYRO
I read some complains about Avengers, that hold me back from buying it.
What makes the game good in your opinion, i serious having doubts about buying, eventho i am a big Hulk fan lol.

@Fiendish-Beaver
From what i played so far i am enjoying it. I don't understand the low review scores its a solid 8.5 for me

@The-Chosen-one From what I have seen of various reviews, the end game/multiplayer content is very samey and I can imagine it gets quite repetitive. I've done a few side missions and they are always the same 3 objectives. I'm only really interested in the single player and I like it, story is interesting and the gameplay is good.

I saw some reviews that say the characters all play the same but personally I don't think that's true. If you're a hulk fan I'd say he's definitely my favourite to play as.

Psychonauts 2. A very good game

Tales of Arise, Cruisin’ Blast, and that new WarioWare game!

Destiny 2 and Diablo 2 Resurrected. Also slowly making my way though Resident Evil Revelations.

I’ve finished up Lost Words: Beyond the Page (awesome experience that’s light in the gameplay) and Forgotten Anne which I had picked up on sale even though it’s not something I would normally play. It was okay, the story/ idea was interesting and felt different.
I’m continuing my hard drive cleanup and have just started Immortal Fenyx Rising. I’m not far enough in to have many solid thoughts/ impressions yet but have learned that I’ve been mispronouncing “Fenyx” so there’s that 😅.
Have a great weekend everyone!

Hades time on xbox

@SacredPYRO
Thanks!
Will give it a try.

Ideal, thank you, @RedKnight34...

@The-Chosen-one Maybe not worth buying at a high price. But as part of GP it is worth playing. It has very good graphics, very good voice-acting and soundtrack. It's gameplay is not perfect but it is good and enjoyable enough. Playing as Hulk is specially fun (Hulk is the best and I think Iron Man was the weakest experience for me).

Damn, Marvels Avengers is so much better then expected. Critics and influencers really destroyed the reputation of this game. I’ll hope Gamepass wil give the game a second chance.

@BrilliantBill
Yeah i buy many games from instant gaming
I saw it for €17

Ai Somnium Files. I’m not completely into this style of game but it’s so intriguing; I want to keep playing.

Been playing halo infinite beta.
Wow. It’s superb.
I’ve never liked Halo multiplayer but this is so much fun.
Can’t wait for the launch now

@Odium
Such a great game. I haven’t quite finished it yet but I hope you’ve enjoyed it.
Boss battles are tough!

@Hurblyburbly I’m really enjoying it. I love that it feels like a PS2/Xbox era game, but still new and fresh. I’m finding Taro’s relics and clearing the shrines right now. One of the boss battles in there took me a few tries, between it being a surprise battle and there being no healing around it was tough, but I like that it’s deceitful on how difficult it is, it looks like an easy charming game, but it’s not.

@Odium
Sounds like you’re enjoying it as am I.
There’s some tough boss battles ahead my friend.
You are spot on. Cute charming graphics but the gameplay can be very tough even on the regular levels.
Great game though….good luck In future boss battles, some of which I died 20 odd times prior to beating them!

@Hurblyburbly that’s good to know. I’ve really enjoyed the difficulty so far, so I’m curious to see how it gets later in the game. I got to the lantern beast and just about beat him on the first try, I just needed one or two more hits, but I didn’t have time to try again. That fight reminded me of Dark Souls in the speed and ferociousness of the fight.
