Like a particularly aggressive salesman, WAYP refuses to get out of your face. It only feels like a few days ago that this editor was compiling Issue 42, but already Issue 43 is here – we’ll be penning the Christmas special soon. Until then, it’s business as usual: we’ll tell you everything that we’re playing, and then open the floor for you in the comments section below. It’s as easy as 1-2-3, y’all.

I’m on clean up duty this weekend, playing through several titles for review purposes. MXGP will probably be the focus of my attention – a motocross game that I don’t think is great, but that I also find oddly addictive. Vroom.

I find myself in an odd position this weekend. With no games that I 'ought' to be playing, the world of interactivity is my oyster. Hundreds upon hundreds of gaming possibilities are splayed out before me, the sheer infinitude of the medium laid bare to see. I'm probably going to play Resogun, is what I'm saying.

Nicola Hayden, News Reporter

The train of misery is almost reaching its final destination in Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair, and won't let me get off until it has seen me cry in the foetal position. Playing games, however, will take the backburner this weekend, as I watch them instead. Indeed, a certain title – unmentionable in front of Sammy – has its World Final this weekend.

I'll most likely be spending the weekend hiding under tables and inside lockers as I try to power through the remainder of Alien: Isolation. It's been a while since I experienced terror in a game like that I feel when being pursued by the murderous Xenomorph – especially when I've not been able to save my progress for a while.

Unsurprisingly, I will be playing more Destiny. I am finally at a point where I can run the Vault of Glass on hard mode, and, even though I already have the Trophy, I don’t have all of the raid gear, so I must complete it a few more times. On my downtime, it will be a combination of NBA 2K15, The Evil Within (possibly one of my favourite games all year), and Alien: Isolation.

Graham Banas, Reviewer

Now that DriveClub sort of works, it'll be a lot easier to justify spending some time with it. I’m still waiting on a patch for Alien: Isolation's cutscenes, though. Oh well, I have the PS4 version of The Walking Dead to tide me over.

My plan is to set time aside on Sunday night to play a slice of a Vib Ribbon on my PlayStation 3. Now that it's boogied its way onto the PlayStation Network as a re-release in Europe this week, it's nice to hear gamers chatting about a PSone game in 2014.

Joey Thurmond, Reviewer

Fall Break has arrived! I'll be spending the weekend relieving my stress from mid-terms with Super Smash Bros 3DS and, of course, the relaxing, soothing experience that The Evil Within offers. What – these are stressful games? Oh well.

Nathan Michalik, Reviewer

I'll be putting some time back into Final Fantasy XIV to prepare for the incoming patch. I recently finished my Stardust Novus for my Black Mage [Did we just switch languages? – Ed], but I still need a couple of Sands of Time to hit item level 110. At least the drop rates are better than my connection rate in DriveClub.

Simon Fitzgerald, Reviewer

Peggle, Peggle, Peggle – does anybody like Peggle? If you hadn't guessed, I'm going to be playing Peggle 2 on the PS4 this weekend. At some point I may also get the chance to take my revenge on some of those dreaded Uruk Captains in Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor.
