It’s a big weekend in ye olde England, with the Royal Wedding and FA Cup Final dominating the news cycle and public conversation. In fact, we suspect the Brits among you are so bored of these topics that you’re looking for an out, and video games should provide the perfect escape. As for the rest of the world, well, you’re probably having a good laugh at the people lined up in Windsor waving mini Union Jacks, but hopefully you find time to play some PlayStation once you get your breath back, too.

I think I’m allowed to say that I’ve been playing Detroit: Become Human now. Unfortunately, I’m not allowed to tell you anything about it. Yet.

The Witcher 3 is three years old today. Three! How time flies. As such, I've cracked open my Game of the Year edition in order to play through it (probably) one last time, at least while things are relatively quiet on the review front. Nice that it has a separate Trophy list, too – I'll gladly take that.

This weekend will be a mix of old and new for me. First and foremost I’ll be taking a trip down memory lane with SEGA Mega Drive Classics ahead of my review, but I’ll also be taking the Onrush open beta for a test drive.

So recently I decided to go back to Overwatch after about a six month break to give the new characters a try, which I am really enjoying Brigitte. So I will be playing that with a bit of Skyrim on the Switch.
A short one this week, but there's plenty of room in the comments for you to fill. What are you playing this weekend? Get busy in the comments section below.

WEM-BERRR-LEYYY! WEM-BERRR-LEYYY! We're the famous Man United and we're going to Wembley. WEM-BERRR-LEYYY...
Weathers pretty great so another bike ride and think I'll fire up the BBQ soon! Gamewise it's all about Battle Chasers for me at the moment, which is totally my jam.
@get2sammyb are you a United fan? Boooooh
Also...can you stop coming to 'what are you playing this weekend' and telling everyone you're playing the most anticipated games before us???? Thanks!
But also...is it better than Heavy Rain?
After a youth group all-nighter I’ll be getting some sleep in today. Hopefully I’ll play some LA Noire sometime tomorrow.
God of War
Finished chapter 2 of Yakuza 0, and am now playing more of Gal Gun 2. I think I'm just going to peck at various games until Y's VIII releases.
I’m away this weekend, so no gaming for me. However, I just introduced my brother who doesn’t play games much to Horizon. Letting him borrow that, uncharted 4 (he’s played the collection on my recommendation) and prey.
@AFCC Not really supposed to say anything about it yet. Next week.
I'll jump back into Ni No Kuni 2 & do some of the side quests. Its not often I go back to a game once I've finished the main story, but this one really dug it's claws into me!
@get2sammyb Your a UTD fan, oh well there goes all my respect
on topic i think i'm going to replay some Kingdom Hearts (PS4 Remasters), not sure which one though
Burnout Paradise Remastered on the PS4, and a bit of Tomb Raider.
@get2sammyb I tried in GOW so I think it's only fair to try now... I'll be reading your review and the answer for that question will probably make me buy the game or not!
@FullbringIchigo I thought this was common knowledge by now.
Yakuza Zero.
When Kyriu sings, I cry.
Despite getting my computer working again, I don't feel like making the most of it this weekend. Instead, I'll play some Shadow of the Colossus and Hatsune Miku Future Tone on PS4, and some more Legend of Zelda Link to the Past as well.
Niflheim 😭😭😭
Must find Ravens. Must kill Ravens.
God of War platinum will be mine (10 to go).
Seriously I hate collectables. Especially the kind that don't stay in one place.
@get2sammyb i must have missed it
Getting there with Tales of Zestiria. Hopefully I can be finished within the next few days!
Also playing Forgotton Anne. It's lovely so far.
Crawl out through the fallout, baby
When they drop that bomb...
Finished god of war main quest, still playing it farming mist echoes in the mist realm, already upgraded one of my ivaldi armor to max level, but there's still 2 ivaldi armor that needs to be upgraded to max before fighting the valkyrie queen.
I think the experience system is a little unbalanced, I already upgraded all of my weapon/shield/rage/atreus/some of my runes, but I still have 300.000+ experience lol
I might finally be able to get back into gaming after a little break. I’ve dipped my toes back into Trails of Cold Steel. I gradually am working through Bloodborne also. If time permits, maybe something story driven as well ... I have a few others on deck like Firewatch or a Telltale game to fall back on if my fast twitch or critical thinking skills are too rusty.
So Dad of Boy trophy run and then I traded in several unwanted games for Rick and Morty VR. If I get a chance then maybe some more Samus Returns in 3ds
I'll be playing.... my keyboard and mouse and 2 little known titles called 'Adobe Illustrator' and 'Adobe Photoshop'. May even get in a little time with 'Adobe InDesign'.
After work, I'll keep playing Yakuza 6. Really enjoying it.
With absolutely no interest in the Royal Wedding (divorced within 2 years I reckon)or football it means i have more time to continue with God Of War which I feel the story is nearly over but the collectible/Dragon Freeing/Valkyrie slaying and bird hunting is not.
I have also finished Beyond Two Souls but I'm going to see if I can claim that platinum.
One game that I have started recently is Jak X racing and I am absolutely loving it!never played it on the ps2 so glad I have that chance now,it's ace:)
Onrush beta may get another look in too as I like it a lot more than I thought i would.
For the Switch,Tiny Metal again.
@Ichiban I'm on chapter 8 and am hovering around level 45-50 will I need to grind in order to see the end of the main story or will I be fine from this point?
To have a failed subordinate clause sandwiched between two sentences starting with the same conjunction is quite impressive.
One of my Tekken friends gave me 3 months of PS+ as a late birthday gift, so chances are I'll be jumping back online hoping to de-rust.
Aside from that, I'll be playing Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix. I've always loved this game, and being able to play it with all the formerly JPN exclusive content is truly amazing.
Will be putting a bullet in a certain Joseph Seed's head (or not, I've heard the ending of Far Cry 5 was a let-down).
I'm currently running around Unity trying to get the platinum. I might give Prey a go tomorrow or try the metro games don't know yet
Probably gonna be working on clearing my backlog. I think Knack 2 will be up next.
Im 10hrs into Ni No Kuni 2 thanks to it being 35% for Plus memebers this week. Its enjoyable. Ill be playing more today AFTER i watch the new episode of My Hero Academia.
@KratosMD Play Horizon you wont regret it!
Omggggi never knew Witcher 3 goty edition had a separate trophy list!!! fml lol
I’m working this weekend, so not too much. Persona 5 and Street Fighter 5.
I finished Ratchet and Clank 1 and I'm moving on to Ratchet and Clank 2. It's amazing how much of an improvement was made over the course of just one game.
Having beaten KH2 last Saturday, I am now playing Birth by Sleep. Pretty refreshing to play with someone who is not Sora. Still playing GoW, which keeps feeling more awesome the more I play it.
Gotta preorder SF Collection before it is too late.
In Canada it's a long weekend so I'll have time to finish Wolfenstein 2, Play a bit of PES 2018. And AC Origins the hidden ones, though for what I played it's pretty much the same as the main game, so repetitive.
Not much actually. I'm moving soon plus a crazy month at work. May get an hour or two of battlefield 1 in and try the new weapons
God of War, and maybe some Mario Kart 8 Deluxe on the Switch. Splatoon 2 is also an option.
Euro Fishing and Pure Farming. I'm working this weekend, so I want something super-relaxing, that I can enjoy with podcasts in the background.
Still playing the Witcher dlc and loving it . Nice Yennefer pic .
I'm replaying Horizon to continue where I left off on the Frozen Wilds, and I'm engrossed all over again. Amazing game.
I finally got the Shadow of the Colossus platinum, before watching two more fallen giants in the FA Cup final.
(Sorry, couldn't resist)
Thank God it is quiet in gaming industry beacuse I have very little time. 3 more weeks of finals are ahead of me
I want to play Dirt 4, and Persona 5. have bought just today, looking forward to deluging myself in Persona 5.
God of war, and I'm going to try and find something good about the game Elex. So far not much is very good.
Yakuza 6 for me. I'm on the final stretch!
@KingdomHeartsFan SNES library beats the PS library any day of the week. While there were some great games on the PS most of them were just 3D platformers and RPGs. For variety SNES is the greatest.
Got back to all the games that were not considered good games.
Played Destiny 2 Warmind, doing my first raids and enjoyed it a lot. Yes they still got a lot to learn, I am hoping for them to reveal the September dlc at E3.
Got No Mans Sky and enjoyed it so far playing the atlas path. Still a bit weird though with the wildlife sometimes looking really weird.
And now playing Battlefront 2 once again. It is far more enjoyable now and I love the Ewok Hunt
PS4 - beyond 2 souls - onto the last chapter or two. Great game. But time to move onto something else.
Switch - football manager 2018. My game of the year. Loving it.
Ps vita - chaos;child. Completed another chapters. Keep on getting better.
God of war. Getting more Interesting
Going for 100% in Super Mario Odyssey, replaying Ocarina of Time 3D, and playing the original Star Fox for the first time.
Still mopping up all the side content in God of War.
@get2sammyb Hello! United lost lmao
Hope Detroit is any good or you must be pretty annoyed
Flash sale picked up limbo!
@AFCC
Reliving my childhood with the Jak and Daxter Collection. And maybe some missions in MGSV:TPP.
@Kidfried Responding to the football score. Can’t talk about Detroit yet. 😂
Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 & 2.5 ReMIX
@Kidfried @get2sammyb I tried x)
platinum'd Reverie
I'm still playing Batman: Arkham Knight (PS4), just finally reached past the halfway point but I've still got ALOT of hours to go.
