Xbox I'll be playing more of Starfield it's great but there's too many loading screens and I'm not a fan of the ship combat. On PS5 I've started a new game in Mafia Definitive edition and Pokemon Brilliant diamond for Switch has just been delivered plenty to keep me busy
@Rmg0731 I've not had many issues slight stuttering a couple of times but no crashes or anything major so far I'm actually surprised how well it runs on Series S.
Finished Firewatch last night really enjoyed the story I've also downloaded Everspace 2 just trying to kill time until Starfield releases. On PS5 I've started Dying Light 2 but not really enjoying it as much as the first game.
I started the Witcher 2 the other night going to hopefully play more of that and also completed Metro Last Light got the bad ending because i just murdered everyone lol.
Just finished FF 16 on Thursday game of the year so far for me the story was absolutely fantastic. I've started Days Gone again hopefully actually get to the end this time. I'll also be playing some Exoprimal on Gamepass later with my brother this game is more fun than i was expecting but needs more content.
I've downloaded and played one match so far can see me playing this for a few hours then I'll get bored there doesn't seem to be much content and it feels like a free to play game.
FF16 for me I'm 80% finished I'm hoping to get it finished up this weekend so i can get back to trying to clear some of the backlog. Downloaded Sword and Fairy on Gamepass too so I'll give that a try if there's time.
I'll be playing Final Fantasy 16 most of the weekend loving it so far. I'm really just waiting for Starfield now on Xbox but if I've got time I'll try and finish Metro Last Light.
Psychonauts 2 is the most fun I've had playing a game in years i was really hoping the rumours were true but I'm sure whatever they are working on will be great.
I love how Phil is acting like Sony forced these companies to sign these contracts Square choose to make FF 16 exclusive to PS5 and PC because that's where most of they're sales come from Xbox are irrelevant to Japanese companies.
Completed Quantum Break last night maybe play some Diablo 4 and finish the FF 16 demo on ps5. Still waiting on my Starfield controller coming from Amazon was meant to be here yesterday.
Starfield looked fantastic but i was a little disappointed not to see some Fable gameplay and was hoping for either a Gears remastered collection or Gears 6 to be announced but still a great show and loads to look forward too.
If I'm buying a new Xbox I'll upgrade the Series S i already have for an X no chance I'd buy this now but wish I'd had the option to get a black one at launch.
I was expecting to play this at 30fps since i only have a Series S but surprised there's not a 60fps option on the Series X. Still looks amazing and I'll still play day one.
Alan Wake 2 looked good though I'd rather we just played as Alan Wake only. Final Fantasy 7 Remake part 2 looks amazing can't wait for that it was an OK show was hoping for more big surprises.
Not bought any of them Final Fantasy is out soon that's the only game I'll be buying this month hopefully Diablo will come to gamepass if the Activision deal goes through I'll play it then.
