Wet and wild

The April showers are particularly unpredictable at Push Square Towers right now, which means that we have an excellent excuse not to brave the outdoors – after all, no one likes getting wet if they can help it. Fortunately, we have a solution: stay indoors and play video games until Monday prematurely arrives. Bonza!

I'm playing a game that I'm not allowed to talk about. It's one that you're really looking forward to, though.

Apparently the level design in the second episode of Hitman is so detailed that there's an ice cream shop which has 20 different flavours and five different types of cone. That'll probably keep me busy all weekend, to be honest.

With a long weekend in front of me I've decided to be a man of gaming leisure ahead of things getting busy next week. With the release of both Battleborn and the Overwatch Beta I need a game I can really relax with. What's my game of choice you ask? Why, Dark Souls III, of course.

For the weekend following my trip to Boston for PAX East, I'm planning on taking it a little easy. By that token, I'll be working on not one but two new reviews for The Park and the newly released Alien-themed pinball tables in Zen Pinball 2. Other than that, it's going to be a pretty low-key couple of days. I might make some room for Netflix or something, but I can't imagine I'll be doing much else.

Thanks to the PSN sale, I've managed to pick up Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth for my Vita, and finally proved to myself once and for all that I'm about two months behind everyone else. I know nothing about Digimon, so I'm really excited to get stuck into a new world!

After slaving over a final exam paper this past week, I need resume my harrowing journey in Demon's Souls. However, I do have some exploits on my Xbox One to get through like Quantum Break, so I'll be bending time to make room for it as well. And most importantly, I've got an awesome interview to work on this weekend for you all to hear. Stay tuned!

I braved the difficulty of the Souls games, I've Platinumed Bloodborne, I've obliterated the Ninja Gaiden series... This weekend, I shall conquer the Nioh Alpha Demo. Damn, this game is seriously making the games mentioned seem like a joke. Really digging it so far, but definitely need to grasp the mechanics more as it definitely has a unique style.

I'll be playing plenty of Hitman: Sapienza this weekend, finding out new ways to ruin the jewel of the Amalfi Coast, while also playing some Fallout 4. I'll probably mix in some Rocket League Hoops, which I don't reckon I'll be any good at.

This weekend I'll be going for the Platinum Trophy in Ratchet & Clank. I've completed it three times in the past week and now only require another couple of trophies for the top gong. Other than that you'll find me shooting some hoops in Rocket League. SLAM DUNK!

So, this weekend for some reason I feel like going retro. I have been in a JRPG mood as of late so I decided to do a play through of Breath of Fire on the SNES.
