Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 is out and Red Dead Redemption 2 is calling, so there’s lots for us to gab about in this week’s WAYP. All that’s left is for us to pose that age old question: what are you playing this weekend?
Sammy Barker, Editor
I've got until Red Dead Redemption 2 releases to finish off Hitman, because I want to be ready for the sequel next month. I'm probably nearing 100 hours in this game now, and I still have tons left to do.
Stephen Tailby, Senior Staff Writer
As I’m in between some big games right now, it seems like a good time to dive back into back log territory. Hitman and DOOM have both been started, so it’d be great to make more progress in these two this weekend.

With Red Dead Redemption 2 riding into town in a couple of weeks, I’m on a clock with anything I’m playing right now. As a result, I’m up to my eyeballs in Spartans as I criss-cross the Med on my quest to finish Assassin's Creed Odyssey in time. I don’t fancy my chances of success.

It’s Spooktober, guys. Getting to play some horror games during this month is obligatory. I will try to see if I can finally beat The Evil Within with almost no ammo left. If all fails, I will just go to Silent Hill. I'm still grief-stricken over the cancellation of Silent Hills.

Having finished my time with Forza Horizon 4, I've come to the conclusion that the third entry is better in nearly every respect. I finished my first playthrough of Metro 2033: Redux so this weekend will be my second playthrough for the Platinum Trophy.

Following WAYP 240, I'll continue playing the first Ratchet & Clank on PS Vita, but I'll supplement my celebration by watching the 2016 animated film, and reading Joey Thurmond's Insomniac Games Discusses the Past, Present, and Future of Ratchet & Clank interview for Push Square. Thanks again to my kind friends for buying me The Ratchet & Clank Trilogy.

After basking in the glory of Assassin's Creed Odyssey for the past week, I’ve had to pry myself away as to indulge in some Black Ops 4. The latest Call Of Duty instalment feels as much of a nostalgic throwback to the good ol' Black Ops 1 days as it does a fresh-faced Call Of Duty experience. Excited to sink my teeth well in.

Whilst there’s a slump before Red Dead Redemption 2 comes out I decided to take a trip down memory lane and play one of my favourite first person shooters, Far Cry 5. It’s been a while since its release and I thought it was about time to comb through some missed Trophies. Even now, I’m still wowed by the living and breathing open world and though I finished the game a long time ago I’m impressed by the level of quality in the stories I initially decided not to play. Makes me miss Hope County that little bit more.
It's another meaty WAYP from us, so let's see your comments down below. What are you playing this weekend? Only one of our team's playing Call of Duty – how many of you are busy in Treyarch's latest shooter? Let us know below.

Finishing off Spiderman before mopping up the few remaining trophies for the platinum. I've had more fun with this game than any other this year and maybe longer.
After that I'll be getting stuck into Kingdom Hearts
More Spiderman. I love this game, there's just so much to do.
I also want to give Friday the 13th a try, since I got it as a PSPlus member.
Also some Tricky Towers - enjoying it so far, I challenged my wife to a game. I'm gonna lose lol.
Since it's October I too am tempted to play a scary game.
Maybe I can finally get around to finishing Cry of Fear on PC.
That and my playthrough of Doom 3 that I started 6 years ago.
ANYWAYS, I started playing Dragon Quest 11 last night. I named my character Beefino because it feels like the right choice for my first DQ game.
Funnily enough, Final Fantasy is one of the few RPGs I use the default names for everyone, every other RPG that lets you enter a name I think of stupid names that make me laugh.
Still playing spider-man, after clearing thug crime and demon crime (plus finding certain thieving felines plushie toys), I think manhattan is safer than ever.
Not much has changed since last weekend for me, so it’s more of Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, Forza Horizon 4, Mark of the Ninja (remastered) F1 2018, and maybe some FIFA 19. Less than 2 weeks to go now until a certain game...
I'm replaying Darksiders at the moment. Can't wait for Darksiders 3.
Just clocked over 60 hours on assassins creed odyssey and loving every minute!
Monster Hunter 👌🏾
I start my vacation today, so I’m getting in a lot of games. I need to finish up Shadow of the Tomb Raider, get back on Monster Hunter World, and start on Yakuza Kiwami 2. I recently bought Season 2 for Tekken 7 so I need to get back to that. Along with Street Fighter V, and King of Fighters 14.
you know i'm not sure, probably start the next Kingdom Hearts game in my refresher playthrough
Playing through WWE2K19 showcase mode & thinking about starting up Red Dead Redemption as an appetiser for the main course later this month .
I'll also be getting back to Astro Bot at some point.
Assassin's Creed Odyssey
syndicate amazing game.gameplay and graphics.a very good fps.and assasin creed ezio collection.word up son
I'll be putting time into black ops 4. I know my love of all things shooting from back in the 80's upto today is not the cool thing but I'm really loving it. It plays so well. I've never spent a penny on any shooters so called pay to win mechanics and I've always faired well. And as always with cod games the best guns and perks are pretty much available right away as the first ones. Anyway for those that care there's easily enough content to warrant a purchase in a well polished balanced game.
I had a big dream about playing Spiderman last night and woke up wanting to buy it, unfortunately I know it won't be as good as it was in my dream. But to all you people playing Spiderman, I have to say, haha unlucky, my version was way better.
I'll be playing DQ11 this weekend, trying to get it dusted off in time for RDR2
Also off to see The First Man tonight at the cinema.
Have a good one you rascals.
I've been trying to make myself play The Evil Within. I bought it full price the week it came out in 2014 but it never really clicked with me. I managed to go from chapter 4 (game save from 2 years ago) to chapter 7 but I feel like stopping again. I bought Until Dawn in that sale so I'll play that tonight.
Still AC Odyssey for me. Still a brilliant game.
For me, well decks are being cleared for Red Dead Redemption 2 so I am back to Skyrim I’m Switch in between writing and recording a podcast. I am also hoping to get an old tv so I can hook uptown GC and do some good ole fashioned Metroid Priming. God I loves this console.
Still red dead, been in Mexico for a few missions now and am strangely obsessed by 5 finger fillet and arm wrestling. It's such an amazing game!! Still playing bayonetta too, my mrs walked in whilst bayonetta was doing a vogue off with an angelic version of herself and was like wtf are you actually playing?! I still don't know how to explain....enjoy your weekends!!
I know everyone seems to loathe it but I just finished The Order and I really liked it. It started off slow but by about half way through I was enthralled. And despite being a few years old now, it's still a good looking game!
Dragon Quest XI is enormous so I'm continuing with that- and enjoying every bit of it. Yay!
Also continuing with Metal Gear Solid 2.
@Rudy_Manchego Nintendo ain't surpassed the Gamecube and they never will! Metroid Prime is marvellous. Have you got any other games lined up to play on it?
@mookysam I had a GameCube back in the day and had a great collection but annoyingly sold a lot of them. I bought one back and am now going back. I kept a few faves like Metroid, Resi 4 and a couple of others. Really hard not to go on a spending spree and get loads more!!
The Witcher 3 Blood & Wine because I've only played through it once before. Toussaint is such a beautiful looking place, you can almost smell those vineyards.
Playing dark souls 1 and I am almost finished with it. What a journey it has been so far. Can't wait to play DS2 and DS3! Liked bloodborne's atmosphere waaay better though!
Spider-Man and Yakuza Kiwami 2. Have to finish both these before Red Dead Redemption 2 as that game is likely to take up much of my free time once it launches.
I've been playing No Heroes Allowed VR. Good fun.
Ps4: Dragon Quest XI (Best.JRPG.Ever!)
PSVR: Astrobot (Best.VR Game.Ever!)
Not sure what I will be playing this weekend. Started a new season on Diablo so there is that. As might look into Forza Horizon 4 here at some point. In all just not sure what I want to play right now.
DQXI and Hollow Knight, 71% percent done 11 more charms to find and had a go in the colluseum this morning also have a new boss to fight. Looks like i'm still needing a new ability to get to a few places not yet uncovered on the map!
I finally started to play persona 4 golden on my vita, I bought it 4 years ago but it just ended up in my backlog. Also planning on playing borderlands 2 and tearaway on my vita.
Mainly focused on GTA 5 this weekend, though I'll also get a bit further in Shin Megami Tensei Devil Survivor Overclocked as well.
Still working on Dragon Quest XI and Dragon Ball Fusions.
Most likely going to go for the platinum in Spiderman, only 3 trophies left. I'm not very good at the challenge missions though, I seem to have trouble with getting the swinging to cooperate in the drone missions. After that probably shadow of the tomb raider and dragon quest 11, might boot up the PS3 and do another runthrough of the parasite eve games for Halloween.
Odissey... happily lost in my ups and downs in the Egean Sea.
Brilliant game
I'm playing through Shadow of Mordor for the first time. I'm enjoying exacting bitter vengeance on orcs, the story is kinda balls though.
It’s a mixture of Assassins Creed Odyssey, Black Ops 4 and Smite for me this weekend. And I’m off to see Cirque du Soleil for the first time too
Dark Souls 3 is continuing to be my go to game at weekends. I've found myself drawn back into it and it just seemingly never gets old. Love it. That and I might start Lords of the Fallen when I'm done, plus I've been playing Lego Harry potter again with my gf- and enjoying it a lot more than I thought I would!
Still playing Dragon Quest XI.
It’s great to see many folks here playing Spider-Man, can’t wait for the dlc.
Finally gave in a got spider-man, and so far it's pretty fun. Also will continue dieing to bee boss guy in hollow knight, man I hate that guy. Try to squeeze in some DQXI but probably won't. Too many games not enough weekend.
Mixing Deus Ex MD with Project Cars 2. I wish I had some of the Jensen's cyber abilities to use while driving. Like hacking all the electronics of the car leading the race...
@1_W1NG3D_4NG3L hope everything goes ok
Sailing across the world in Odyssey and might play a bit of far cry 3
@kyleforrester87 How would you know if you havent tried it. 😃 😜
Nightshift havent played the whole week maybe tommorrow. I need to finish Assassins Creed Syndicate and i want to finish Uncharted 4 not even going for the Platinum om Uncharted just want to see the ending. 😁
@arnoldlayne83 Is it grindy just asking i need to make a choice what to start up next. 😁
@Flaming_Kaiser yes it is. To proceed in some main quests you need to level up doing other activities. You can see the emd in around 40 - 50 hrs (they say). It is a proper Western RPG like the Witcher or Dragon Age.
@arnoldlayne83 My backlog almost starts to be a punishment i just dont know where to start.
I know one thing for sure im not buying RDR 2 i did not like the first one and i just dont have the time. 😉
My thanks for the response its appreciated. 😃
I'll be continuing with Assassin's Creed Syndicate, then moving on to Fist of the North Star. After that, I'll be playing some horror games!
Dragon Quest XI
Wow, spider-man lives up to the hype. Pretty awesome game so far, fun just to swing around and beat the crap outta bad guys.
Just racing games: Dakar 18, MotoGP 18, Nascar Heat 3, V-Rally 4, and F1 2018. A nice variety of things; from deserts in Peru, rainy Le Mans, a Bristol dirt-track, hillclimbs in China, and a cool evening in Bahrain.
@hi_drnick I still have hopes for a sequel to The Order, there's certainly enough depth for it in terms of lore and characters.
Okami. Still loving it, but I forgot how long it was, and I'm beginning to worry it won't be finished in time for Red Dead...
@Flaming_Kaiser I can relate... being young means lot of free time, energy and very little if not money to waste, then you grow and if you are lucky u got some money but time and energy gets more and more scarce... it basically sucks! 🤣
Took a break from DQXI for AC:Odyssey, and really wish I hadn't now! It is good, but it has nothing on my lovely JRPG! 😉
@Bonbonetti I'd be all over a sequel especially as there are number of potential story lines they could explore. I know it won't happen which is a shame as I think a sequel would have given them a chance to refine the gameplay etc. Seeing it in 4K HDR would also be awesome.
nothing until red dead
almost done with Spider man . Trying to get platinum, let see.
Finally, finally FINALLY beating Kingdom Hearts BBSFM!! Only because my sister recently bought me KH 2.8 for my birthday. Always dreaded playing this one, I beat Terras play through once and it took me a lifetime to beat his final bosses. Then I started playing Vens story and having to repeat worlds was a real drag. Especially getting through the first initial leveling up 1-15 is a bit of a bore so I always end up quiting at Vens playthrough and never touching it again. Now with my bday gift awaiting me and KH3 coming I had no choice!
Now that I have sat down, looked up the best commands for each character, gotten through Terra and Vens story and now starting Aquas I'm actually enjoying this game a lot more then I ever thought! Can't wait to finish this and get to 2.8!
was on BOP4 all weekend, to my suprise
@LaNooch1978 I played some Revolver the other day. I loved that game way back when. Obviously the graphics aren't so great now, but I still like the game!
