Bought Outer Worlds 2 in the sale played about an hour or so last night looking forward to getting stuck in today. I'll also probably play some Battlefield 6 multiplayer later on. I'm very tempted to buy Ys Nordic as it's on sale as well but probably shouldn't lol.
Halo MCC is the only thing I've bought and i used reward points but tempted to grab Outer Worlds 2 and Star Wars Outlaws dlc on Playstation. Has anyone played the dlc for Outlaws is it worth it?
Trying to finish up my Gears Reloaded hardcore playthrough but I'm struggling with beating Raam doesn't help that Doms ai is utter ***** can't believe they still haven't fixed it. I'm going to continue with Where Winds Meet I'm enjoying it but honestly dont have a clue what half the stuff I'm looting is even for and the menus are a mess. I also just bought the Master Chief collection for £7.49 with rewards so I'll be playing that later on.
This is the first CoD I've got zero interest in buying blops 6 completely burnt me out on the franchise and this just seems like it could've been dlc tbh.
Cancelled it and probably won't be back didn't really use it enough to justify the price hike. I don't care about the Fortnite crap they added and i own most Ubisoft games i want so none of the extra stuff they're bundled in is of any interest to me personally.
I'll never understand people that cheat in online games it surely just takes the fun out of the game even if your top of the leaderboard every game it's because you're a cheating ***** not because you are good at the game. But these things are hard to detect properly so i have my doubts they'll be able to really do anything about it but at least they're going to try CoD is full of cheaters and Activision couldn't give a *****.
Finished Mafia The Old Country got a few more trophies for the platinum. I'm also near the end of Arkham City first time ever playing it and it's pretty fun if i get that finished I'll start Arkham Knight. I'm trying to clear as much of my backlog this year as possible.
Finished it yesterday and absolutely loved it going to try and go for the platinum now I'm not looking forward to collecting all the foxes again just done it a couple of weeks ago for Mafia Definitive edition.
Started Mafia The Old Country last night and love what I've played so far so I'll be continuing with that and also be playing some more of Battlefield 6 beta can't wait for the full release now.
@Ricky-Spanish Yes all the trophies unlocked fine i also played it on Xbox last year and didn't have any issues that i can remember with the achievements.
A lot of people own more than one console so anybody who really wanted to play it probably already bought it on PS5. I honestly don't buy any games on Xbox since Gamepass always has something i want to play.
@ZuneTattooGuy You can trade the disc in or lend them to friends you can't do that with a code in a box it just seems pointless to release what is essentially a digital copy with a box.
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.
Xdefiant was actually pretty decent they just took far too long to fix the hit detection issues and too slow adding new content. I put about 100 hours into it and it felt like the good old days of CoD without SBMM tuned to the max.
Loved it and it wasn't even a game i was particularly looking forward too but it was beautiful and just the right length for the type of game it was. Soundtrack was fantastic too.
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. Also bought Days Gone upgrade so I'll continue with that later on.
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.
Tried and it and unistalled after about an hour it's got horrible input lag on Series S first group of enemies i ran into killed me repeatedly because my guy just stood there while they bashed his head in with a cricket bat. I didn't get on with Stalker 2 either so this type of game just isn't for me maybe but this definitely needs a few patches especially on the Series S.
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. I'm also tempted to start another playthrough of Avowed.
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.
Really enjoying it so far about 20 hours in and I'm still in the 2nd area. The world is beautiful and I'm having a lot of fun just exploring it slowly and taking a bunch of screenshots. I'm hoping they'll make dlc or we'll get a sequel in the future.
I really want to try Rogue trader but I've just started Avowed and I've still got Sniper Elite to finish so it'll probably have to wait unless i just stop sleeping lol.
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.
Absolutely loved this game it was almost perfect apart from a couple of small bugs near the end for me. I'll definitely be buying this for PS5 when it releases to play through it again.
I've downloaded the first game to give it another try but i don't think these games are for me just find it too frustrating and don't really have the time to properly get into it.
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.
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.
Sucks this is closing had a lot of fun with it it had it's issues but when everything was working it was great. Unfortunately the game launching with bad hit detection probably killed it.
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.
