Somewhere over the rainbow

It's been… An interesting week to say the least, so what better way to reflect than with a hot hearth and some video games? There have been a lot of new releases lately, so you should have no shortage of things to play. But what's keeping you occupied this time? Y'all know the drill by now.

Having splashed out a bit on a new 4K TV and PS4 Pro, I plan to spend some time this weekend playing through some titles which have been updated for the new hardware such as Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, Ratchet & Clank, and Uncharted 4: A Thief's End.

The years are long, but it's always good to see a familiar face... Like Corvo Attano's! I'll be enthusiastically donning his mask once more (or play as Emily) as I step into the world of Karnaca this weekend. I also happened to pick up Infinite Warfare and Modern Warfare Remastered, so if I have time, I'll be doing loads of shooting in between all the stealth and assassination.

I'm currently working my way through my backlog and making quite a dent in it. I just finished Valkyria Chronicles Remastered and I've moved onto a game that I've had downloaded for months but never got round to: SOMA. Killer robots and no means of self-defence are a scary mix. Outlast is up next so I'll probably be in the foetal position, crying to myself by Monday morning.

As well as continuing my playthrough of Skyrim, this weekend will be dedicated to hunting down a PS4 Pro. My local GAME has sold out of them so if I do manage to find one and in turn a 4K TV, I'll be picking up Dishonored 2 alongside it and revisiting The Last Of Us Remastered to take a quick trip down memory lane with even better graphics.

I'm still largely ignoring the bigger titles at the moment (though not exactly by choice), so I'm still knee deep in a couple of indie games. There's the ongoing challenge of Clustertruck which, while fun, I can't seem to play for more than 20 minutes at a time. It's Volume that has my main attention though, so I'll be thieving and whistling my way through the stealth-em-up this weekend.

It's going to be a FPS weekend for me. With Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered, Zombies in Spaceland, and Overwatch keeping me busy.


So, then, what are you playing this weekend? Will you be blowing off steam after a tough week, or simply looking for a little relaxation? Let us know in the comments section below.
