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.

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. [Don’t do it, Nicola! – Ed]

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.

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.

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.

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.
With our voices hoarse and garbled, it’s your turn to take to the stage. What’s keeping you busy this weekend? Shout your plans in the comments section below.

I bought Bayonetta from the Flash Sale, so maybe i gonna give it a try.
@ferrers405 It's brilliant. The PS3 version was never particularly great, but I'd still recommend it if you don't have a 360/Wii U to play it on. You'll have a blast.
I haven't been able to afford many new games for a while (about one a month) so I'm working on my backlog so I'm playing through Lightning Returns Final Fantasy XIII, Tales of Xilia 2, Zone of the Enders HD Collection, Darksiders 2, Lord of the Rings War in the North oh and I still need to do the Freadom Cry DLC for ACIV Black Flag
Finally finished moving into a new place yesterday (made sure Internet was the first thing done) so my mission to platinum destiny before far cry 4 consumes my free time continues
I'm playing last of us and mordor on ps4. Playing both with stealth to get me in the mood for unity
I'm playing zen pinball 2 with the new south park dlc. Also playing diablo 3 on hardcore. And trying to get atleast 600 trophies with ssb4 3ds.
@wobrussell I can't wait for far cry 4. 3 was one of my top 5 games last gen
@Mrskinner I played the hell out of FC3 got all but 1 Trophy. With my friends working shift hours it was hard (eventually impossible) to finish the coop mode

Infamous: Second Son- Loving this game.
The Last of Us Remastered- Gonna go ahead and finish this game up.
DC Universe Online- Just started playing this morning....a lil too slow paced
And Killzone: Mercenary
FINALLY beat fallout 3 this morning, so I can stop putting that on these. Just a few trophies to the platinum.
Next I'm gonna either try prototype, spelunky, or mgs 3 as my main game - Diablo as my support still.
@Bad-MuthaAdebis Lol I be having those moments as well. Sometimes I wanna play Vita and sometimes I can't even force myself to play it.
I want to play my Vita, but handhelds don't really fit into my lifestyle that well. That said, I am looking forward to Freedom Wars.
Well due to work tomorrow and birthday celebrations today, not too much gaming for me this weekend might sneak in the following
DS — Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin — Still continuing with my retro Halloween marathon.
PS4 --Dust: An Elysian Tale — Hopeing to finish the story on this one this weekend then I can go trophy hunting.
PC — Heroes of the Storm — Blizzards entry into the world of MOBAs. Been playing this one for a few months off and on and it is a really fun game. Great too when you don't have alot of time to game since the battles are quick.
Peggle, anyone?
Saw the movie Fury so I'm tempted to start up Call of Duty 3 or World At War (the only COD campaigns I've never finished, let alone got very far into). Haven't actually played ANY games at all for two weeks now though...longest period of time in 3 years.
On PS3 I will be playing Wolfenstein and Puppeteer, and see if I can finish them this weekend.
On 3DS I will continue with Pokémon X as a friend won't be able to deliver my copy of Smash until next week the soonest.
Shadow of Mordor!
Driveclub, Sleeping Dogs.
Plants vs. Zombies on Windows Phone and PlayStation Home on PS3 for the 50 day grind.
probably some more Destiny, i'm just about to hit level 28.
and i'll make a start on "the evil within" on Sunday night.
Zelda: Spirit Tracks (DS)
Super Smash Bros. (3DS)
Not exactly sure what to start after I'm done with these games. Probably either Super Mario RPG or something on my PS3.
Driveclub and raising my 3rd character in Diablo Ultimate Ed.... I would like to play Destiny but after reaching lv 29 it is pretty repetitive, there is nothing left to do, as long as you don't wanna repeat the raid til it drops you the piece of armor to reach lv 30 (which is totally random, so it could also never happen)
@Tasuki funny about playing Halloween games. When Super castlevania came out, I planned on beating the game at exactly midnight, and had a few friends over to witness the feat. I beat the game by 10pm, very anticlimactic.
borderlands the pre-sequel
Forza Horizon 2 and Super Smash Bros. 3DS.
MGS4, GTA5 and GT6 trophy hunting
I'm still playing Prototype 1 (PS3), I just completed Mission 25: The Last Man.
Finished off Dust: An Elysian Tale which I loved and started on Shadow of Mordor which is good so far though I've died a lot!
@get2sammyb How come handhelds don't fit into your lifestyle? Surely you can just play your Vita whenever you would normally play any other console eh?
The weekend I usually play more console games, but my 3DS didn't let me do it this weekend as I only played Smash Bros, Theathrhythm: Curtain Call and Animal Crossing: New Leaf.
