It’s officially December, can you believe that? Just where has this year gone? To be fair, it’s been a busy one, crammed to the figurative brim with big releases – from God of War right the way through to Red Dead Redemption 2. But now it’s time to clear your backlog because it’s time to start thinking about your Game of the Year. Do you think you’ll be able to decide?

I nabbed myself a 4K TV and so I'm now committed to playing every single PS4 game I own so that I can gape slack-jawed at the visual improvements. So far Red Dead 2 and Assassin's Creed Odyssey have both wowed, but I can't wait to try the likes of Uncharted 4 and God of War.

I’ll be riding into Red Dead Online this weekend, exploring its many missions and multiplayer modes. However, it’ll have to come second to Youtubers Life, a game I’m reviewing that couldn’t be more different to Rockstar’s open world epic. Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe!

After being MIA for almost two weeks, I will be back. Although seeing how I might start my Finals essays this weekend after my DMC marathon, who knows? Pff, who am I kidding, better get started on Kingdom Come: Deliverance after nabbing it for 20 bucks. Begone homework!

This weekend I'll be diving into Assassin's Creed Odyssey courtesy of a Black Friday sale. I enjoyed the time I spent getting the Platinum Trophy in Origins, and I'm finally feeling ready enough to tackle the next entry in the series.

I'm still playing PSone games that feature on the PlayStation Classic. While this may seem counterproductive before the mini console has released, I've enjoyed seeing Push Square publish our PSone reviews recently. I'm well versed about all aspects of the PlayStation Classic – Sammy's comprehensive hardware review was very informative – so I'm looking forward to collecting my pre-order on Monday.

This week I’ve been diving deep into the wondrous underwater worlds of Abzû as it joins the Switch’s ever-growing catalogue of games. I’ve also been making progress towards Platinum number two in the Spyro Reignited Trilogy. Although the Plats yield little challenge, it’s super fun putting my younger, less thorough self to shame.

Aside from finally finishing Red Dead Redemption 2, I've been playing Bendy and the Ink Machine which is a whimsical and dark indie game I've been pouring over for the past few days. Bendy and the Ink Machine has a delightful cartoon style which creates a clever juxtaposition between the true horror nature of the game. With clever puzzles and a intriguing story this indie game is one not to be missed.

So now that one holiday is done I will be getting back to regularly scheduled gaming. This weekend I will be playing Fallout 76. Despite all the negativity this game is getting I am having a lot of fun exploring the land with my friends.
What are you playing this weekend, then? Is it something new or something? Follow the usual drill in the comments section below.

Ace Attorney: Spirit of Justice.
Torna: The Golden Country.
Will probably also re-engage Splatoon 2 in anticipation of the upcoming Splatfest.
Reddy Mcdeady 2, more Beat Saber and probably some Vita titles as I put together a vid on the PSTV
I 100% Spyro 2 last night, so I'm going to get the platinum in 2 before jumping to Spyro 3.
Spyro 2 is still my favorite in the trilogy. The hub world's atmosphere mixed with the music is so lovely. Love Autumn Plains.
With Sony making decisions I cannot support lately, I don't feel like playing PlayStation that much, to be honest. Mario Odyssey on Switch will do the trick during weekend.
Darksiders III
Finally finished the story in Ni No Kuni 2 last night so along with some Darksiders 3 I think I'll be working on some of the post-game stuff for the plat.
Darksiders 3! It's great! About 10 hours in, but I've been stuck on a boss for a while now.
Might take a break and go back to RDR2 for a while.
In between putting up the Xmas decoration (I’ve compromised with my better half on the 1st of Dec) I’ll play some more RDR 2 (up to chapter 4 finally) some Spyro (oh the nostalgia!!) and some regular Blackout and Smite.
@NintendoFan4Lyf That is a serious gaming menu right there!
I really want to get stuck into Red Dead Online but it keeps crashing as often as the complaints department at a Bethesda launch party.
COD WWII and COD BO4
@RogerRoger Burley Men At Sea is a jolly little experience indeed. Took me a little over 2 hours to platinum and I enjoyed it a lot. The music stood out for me.
I will be trying some challenges and circuit experiences in Gran Turismo Sport, some Boss Rush bonanza in The Disney Afternoon Collection and some Multiverse madness in Injustice 2.
I just got Kamen Rider Climax Scramble on Switch, so I'll be playing that in between Final Fantasy XIV
Red dead 2. Really like the game, not a fan of the controls though.
sniper elite 3 ultimate warrior edition.word up son
Will continue with Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney and Dragon Quest XI. I think I'm starting to near the end of Dragon Quest. I'm not really sure I want it to as I've enjoyed it so much. May also do some more Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm, which has become my relaxation game.
@RogerRoger That gif is quite hypnotic!
A bit more Tetris Effect for me which is a game that's fast becoming my personal GOTY, alongside that it'll be more VR with Astro Bot and Resident Evil VII topped off with some Rondo of Blood
playing Batman: Return to Arkham: Arkham Asylum, it was cheep on the PS Store so i thought why the hell not
Got back to AC Odyssey for the plat this past week, so now it's time to return to DQXI this weekend and try to do the same there! Will probably play some Spyro in between too.
@RogerRoger I still have angry dreams about those pesky egg thiefs - they used to annoy me so much when I played Spyro as a child back in the nineties! Lol.
Pokémon Lets Go Pikachu:) awesome game (switch)
I’ve been playing a lot more Red Dead Redemption 2 and although I have enjoyed it quite a bit, after a six hour session, I need a break from horseback riding. After recent discussion on the forums, I think I might just start up The Council for a little break in the Wild West action. It’s a game I was very curious about, being a fan of fictional alternate history. Since no one has played it, I’m a little worried that it might be a dud but my curiosity is insatiable.
Playing some Uncharted 3, Heavy Rain, and Tomb Raider Chronicles.
I got a 3 day weekend. So it’s Street Fighter V, Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection, Soul Calibur 6, Castlevania Requiem, Dragon Crown Pro. I REALLY need to start Yakuza Kiwami 2.
Playing rd2 later, bit more of the single player and dip onto online again. Have only done the intro but hoping to meet some decent folk to posse up with and have fun, anyone fancies it, give me a shout. Been playing some la noir on switch this week too, which I've enjoyed!! @sanquine, I've never played a Pokemon game before but watched the odd cartoon as a teen, would you recommend to a complete noob? @NintendoFan4Lyf, those are three solid games!! Enjoy!! I'm taking a break from ds remastered but made it to Sens fortress before the break. Mgs V has a stretch of 4-5 chapters which are gaming God tier and witcher 3 was the game that got me properly back into gaming.
I've nearly finished Firewatch, which has been quite interesting. I haven't played a lot of AAA games lately, but I've just received my copy of Horizon Zero Dawn and Titanfall 2 is currently downloading, so looking forward to playing some of that this weekend.
Back to Dragon Quest XI.
Just bought Burnout Paradise Remastered from the flash sale that was on actually enjoying it again can't believe it's been that long since I platted it on PS3 I feel old
After FINALLY beating the brilliant Torna-The Golden Country last night I can finally get back to Shining Dragon Resonance,a game I started months ago..
I'll obviously be playing Dragon Quest XI (yes,STILL playing it..)And I also started Detroit Become Human,a game I received for my birthday and it is absolutely amazing!But seriously why is it whatever choice I choose is the wrong one and everyone's opinion of me is Hostile.I just want people to like me..
Spyro The Dragon will get a look in for sure which reminds me..@RogerRoger those little thiefs are a pain in the ass!lol
Playing some Hollow Knight, RDR2 online, Spiderman and The Unfinished Swan for a retro podcast.
After the tease of a dragon age announcement ive started playing inquisition again! Wanted to revisit solas now I know the truth
I realized within the last 2 days, I've played Pokémon Sun, Yakuza Kiwami, Battlefront 2 (PS4), and Mirror's Edge Catalyst (XB1). So may as well continue.
I got roped into playing some Terraria by the kids today, when I probably should have been doing something more constructive. It was fantastic and I regret nothing.
That's all the weekend's gaming for me though. Another busy one.
@RogerRoger I platinum-ed Burly Men At Sea over a couple of weeks, by doing one or two playthroughs a day over my morning coffee. Blissful. I think it would have got a bit repetitive if I'd tried to do it all in one go, although I'd never grow tired of that soundtrack.
Hitman 2 and Irish lit and 18th century lit papers
ASTRO BOT RESCUE MISSION, Just adore this game VR is awesome. Probably play some Beat Saber and DQXI as well!
@R1spam It is very noob friendly, as every time you catch a Pokémon your other Pokémon gets XP. Thus, How more Pokémon you catch the higher level your party of Pokémon Will be. I can recommand it to everyone
Playing the Council which I recently picked up. This game is awesome; the gameplay is unique, the voiceacting is great, the music is superb. It's a fascinating and highly well-made game. Starting a second playthrough of Call of Cthulhu, I went straight for the dark ending in my first one, and want explore the other pathways.
Resogun and Layers of fear, both massive bargains in the never ending P'S Store sales. Both great so far!
RDR2. Still sauntering in chapter 4 & prolonging my gameplay duration!!!
Juggling between Wolfenstein: The New Colossus and Hyper Light Drifter. Loving both so far!
@Bonbonetti I just started The Council also and I am likewise enjoying it. Good to see someone else playing it. I must disagree about the voice acting however. It’s pretty bad at times, imo. But not to be contrary, I do totally agree about the gameplay and that it’s unique and nicely put together. I left more detailed impressions in the forums, curious to see if you agree —

Anyone at PushSquare towers playing Mutant Year Zero this weekend ahead of it’s review? And if yes when can we expect said review?
@KratosMD I haven't played Monster Hunter yet, but I have played Rime. It is a great game with a great ending. Enjoy.
Playing rainbow skies on the vita. 89 hours in and still loving this game.
@KingdomHeartsFan You're absolutely right.
@KratosMD RIME is amazing
