Finally

The Premier League season is back underway, so that means that this author will be spending the next ten or so months composing WAYP with half an eye on the BBC text updates. Of course, this article isn't about football, but the PlayStation games that will be keeping you company all weekend. Here's what our team are up to.

No kidding, it looks like I'll be playing Goat Simulator. My love of simulation games is well known at Push Square Towers, but I'm actually not sure what to expect from this one. You'll be able to find out if I think it's the GoaT in our review next week.

This weekend I'll be fighting for my life in Sword Art Online Re: Hollow Fragment. It's taken some time to wrap my head around its various systems, but all in all, it seems like a pretty enjoyable role-playing game with a few neat features. If all goes to plan, I'll have a review for you lot in the very near future.

No gaming for me this weekend, I'm afraid. I'm headed back to Mississippi after having spent all of July with my family and friends in North Carolina. But, since I have about $600 to blow on whatever I want, I wouldn't be surprised if I ended up buying some games along the way. In fact, I've been teasing the idea of finally picking up a PlayStation Vita as of late.

This weekend I'll be putting a bit more time into Abyss Odyssey: Extended Dream Edition so I can get down to putting the proverbial pen to paper for my review. In other news, I'll be continuing to act Godlike in the Smite open beta, as I put far too much time into this enjoyable MOBA.

During EA's Gamescom 2015 press conference, when Martin Sahlin explained that "Unravel is a game about not giving up, about pushing on, even though things might seem a bit hard", I was reminded of rushing towards repeated grisly deaths while playing Limbo in 2011. Perhaps a more careful and considered approach is advisable when I return to Limbo, since it's the latest addition to my Instant Game Collection on the PS4.

This weekend I'm aiming to achieve my Platinum Trophy for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. I only have to nab three more Trophies for Exo Survival and that Platinum will be mine. I'm also planning on playing some more Rocket League with buddies – such an awesome game.

This weekend I am going to see what all of the recent patches have done to improve The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, and I live in hope of finding someone to co-op the final couple of Chalice Dungeons in Bloodborne with, as that's a Platinum that I'd very much like to add to the shiny Rocket League one that I bagged last week.

This weekend I'll be playing FIFA 15 in order to gear up for the return of the Premier League, playing through a season in Career mode as Liverpool with all of their new signings. Let's hope my so far good results come true. [No chance, Sam – Ed]

After getting the Platinum Trophy in The LEGO Move Videogame on the PS4 last weekend, I've been playing the LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham in the search of yet another Platinum Trophy. Maybe once I've finished that I'll move on to the likes of LEGO The Hobbit, LEGO Jurassic World, and LEGO Marvel Super Heroes – that should hold me down for a few weekends to come.
