After a couple of weeks off, your humble host is back to post the latest WAYP. That means that it’s a desperately short edition, because apparently no one cares to respond to Sammy’s requests. The good news is that the comments are always action packed in these articles, so you’re going to have to pick up the slack in the space below.
Sammy Barker, Editor
I really wished I was playing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare this weekend as I very much like the look of that game, but instead I’ll be feeding my addiction to NBA 2K20. It’s becoming a problem.

I am playing an unreleased video game for review this weekend. That is all I can say. [Tease – Ed]
Christian Kobza, Contributor
This weekend is the big one. No sunlight for me. I'll be nestled snugly on my couch flipping between Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and The Outer Worlds all weekend long.
So, that’s what we’re up to this weekend, but what about you? Let us know what’s on your agenda in the comments section, and please tell the other staff members to participate in WAYP occasionally.

Baldurs Gate mostly, it’s really weird for me that I’m actually, finally after so many years, making significant progress with it.
And Control.
Sleeping dogs, im trying to play some of the games i own before buying any new ones. Pretty fun so far.
I put Dark Souls II: SotFS on hold for most of my week off... But I think I'll start it up again now having taken a breather with Crash Bandicoot amidst all the meetings and lesson planning this week during half term
Pillars of eternity and the outer worlds. I was hoping to finish pillars of eternity before the outer worlds came out but I haven't quite done it, yet.
Horizon Zero Dawn mainly and just mopping up the last few trophies on FINAL FANTASY VIII Remastered
Lonely Mountains: Downhill and The Outer Worlds for me. Been impressed with both so far.
Trails of cold steel 3 for the next few weeks for me
Enjoying the witches season event in elder scrolls online. The xp boost is epic
The Outer Worlds and loving every minute of it. GOTY for me so far. I'm already disappointed that we'll never get the inevitable sequel on a Sony console. Amazing game!
The outer worlds when it finally downloads 😂😂. Also some more shaun chasing in Fallout 4 and ignoring Preston at every opportunity hee Hee. Maybe some kooky times with Judgement on the side.
Modern Warfare and Medievil
Playing Through Both Icewind Dale And Planescape Torment
Despite a wide variety of new games I want to play, I accidentally started a new playthrough of Fire Emblem Three Houses and am once again completely addicted to it, so that's taking centre stage this weekend!
Persona 4 and Man of Medan.
Last of Us Remastered!
Predominantly Ni No Kuni, maybe some fifa and World to the west, need to get back on the later, I'm stuck on a boss, if I leave it to long, I'll forget how to play it and I'll never beat it.
The excellent, sharply written and often humourous, The Outer Worlds.
@Areus that's on my list to get soon. I've finished Icewind dale a few times on the pc back in the day but never played torment. I also fancy a replay of Icewind dale. Out of interest what are the controls like on the console versions? I was pleasantly surprised at the controls on pillars of eternitys port.
Same as last week mainly - Valkyria Chronicles 4 and some Concrete Genie on the side. If I get tired of either of those then I have Assassin’s Creed Origins downloaded and ready to try out.
After completing Concrete Genie through the week (fantastic game). I'm attempting to take out the Emhead Hills boss in Tales of Vesperia and OMG i think a dual shock might get thrown. 7 hours in and i didn't expect this much hassle from a boss!
Gears 5 on pc. This game is pretty good, the story and dialogue is way better than the 4th game, maybe the devs change their writer or something. The graphics is pretty good, it's like somebody put colour in gears game, I don't have problem with drab colour on gears games before (it fit the games themes), but this colourful environment is good too.
And soon playing medievil this night on ps4
The Outer Worlds - loving it so far, off the first planet, it's like a pulpy sci fi Fallout and it's great
Modern Warfare - 3 missions of the campaign in so far and it's brutal ! Return to form for CoD. Hit lvl 10 in multiplayer and it's even MORE brutal but fantastic
Same as last weekend yet again (AC Odyssey/Persona 5). Why did I start playing 2 such long games at the same time? I’m on holiday from next weekend so hoping I can still get Odyssey done before Death Stranding hits.
Having finished the amazing God of War I'm now playing through the Nathan Drake Collection of Uncharted. Currently at the beginning of Among Thieves, which is still as fun as ever. Waiting till Black Friday/Cyber Monday to buy my next PS4 adventure. Happy gaming guys!
Monster Hunter World Iceborne
Still on my Greek Odyssey but that will be the case for many weeks yet to come!
Also playing the odd few rounds of Star Wars Battlefront 2.
@BridgeToClarity Woah, have you not played Witcher 3 side quests!?
I'm going to dive into what I picked up from the Halloween sale: The Forest and Darkwood.
Finally finally fiiiiiinally finished AC Odyssey after 142hrs. It's FIFA 20, RDR2, GOW, HZD for me.
@BridgeToClarity even on my 2nd playthrough of both games I'm still failing to see how GOW gets goty over RDR2. There's just so many interesting characters in the latter. Dutch Van Der Linde is one heck of a character in video gaming history. Whereas in GOW it's just Brok and Sindr everywhere.
It’ll be plenty of Modern Warfare for me with both the campaign (which has been great so far) and the MP to try out. Really liking it even though I’ve found some of the MP maps aren’t that great really, gameplay is very satisfying still and some of the little animations are great! I’ll also continue playing through Witcher 3 on Switch, I’m just onto Velen and the big bad open world of the game is before me. It’s still a masterpiece even with downgraded graphics on Switch, it still looks good to me. Also plan on playing more Outer Wilds (not Worlds!!) on PS4 which I’m really liking, it’s a great exploration game in the purest sense. I’ve a week off with our mid-term brake so I plan on playing some more Division 2 as I check out what they’ve added and some Destiny 2 as I grind to 950
I'll be on Modern Warfare, only done a handful of campaign missions so far & it's pretty hard hitting stuff. Then onto the multiplayer!
But I am very tempted to pick up The Outer Worlds this weekend too, just looks so damn good!
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is pretty much all I've been playing since I started. Superb game.
The Outer Worlds for me and its comfortably the best RPG I've played since The Witcher 3 with plenty of well written and entirely optional dialogue and quests, even extra dialogue for npc's after the quest has finished. The combat is better than the Fallout series and this is very much Fallout New Vegas in space
Medievil .. but man this game is frustrating. there is no checkpoint system !
The Walking Dead: The Complete First Season (Windows Store) - Moving onto Episode 3, that last episode was quite disturbing.
Zoo Tycoon Friends (Windows Store) - The workaround to bypass the server authentication is becoming unstable. I've lost progress a couple of times.
FIFA 15 Ultimate Team (Windows Phone) - Still playing quick matches.
Ezio collection on ps4 i never got round to the trilogy but played all the othet games except unity and 1 and i started 2 earlier and totally get why everyone likes ezio
@BridgeToClarity Fair enough! I think the combat system in Red Dead tampers my enjoyment of the story and quests unfortunately. Not a fan of needing to rely so much on aim assist and dead eye. Might be a ‘me’ problem though.
@ellsworth004 no sleeping dogs 2 is easily one of the saddest thing going gaming related.
Well it's a good job I haven't finished Trails Of Cold Steel 2 because I STILL have not received my Trails Of Cold Steel 3 Early Enrollment Edition from Nisa Europe and no replies to my emails.
So anyway as well as TOCS 2 ill be busy with Dragon Quest Builders 2 this weekend.
On the Switch I finished the great Links Awakening so I will be starting Fire Emblem Three Houses.Been looking forward to this one.
The wifes away for the weekend so I've got the house to myself and having a full on retro day today. Started of with Karnov and planning some wwf after with superstars and wrestlefest. Good times...
On the Xbox One it's going to be The Outer Worlds. I am really enjoying this game alot. I am enjoying it so much that I haven't even touched Modern Warfare.
I have to work a little bit over the weekend. But I’ll get in Rise of the Tomb Raider and Dead or Alive 6 for PS4. Maybe get back into Resident Evil 2.
I’ll be playing The Outer Worlds whenever I can get the free time away from work. I was going to start it last night after I got off but was too exhausted. I think I will be able to squeeze in an hour or two before I do a 10 hour shift today, and a nine hour shift tomorrow. Fun stuff.
Spyro 2 - working on the 100% for the summer levels and then finish the story. After that I guess I'll return to getting 100% in the autumn levels.
With some block a pix in between. Perfect for anyone who loves puzzle and picross games.
@ellsworth004 I've been playing sleeping dogs over tha last couple of weeks, I've really enjoyed it so far. Missions are fun and hong kong is a great setting.
Hope you scored death stranding review Liam! Cant wait to give it a go.
The outer worlds. I love this game
@ellsworth004 Love Sleeping Dogs. Wei Shen is such a dude. Great game.
Skyrim special edition and Dragon age goty edition.word upson

@ApostateMage. A 10 out of 10 game.sleeping. dogs 2 for ps5.word up son
I finally started playing Titanfall 2 yesterday. An hour and a half in so far, and I can definitely see why people speak so highly of this game’s campaign. I won’t be heading into multiplayer or going for the platinum, just enjoying the game on easy so I can get another title out of my backlog as pleasantly as possible.
Hitman 2 has a brand new elusive target, so I've got an assassination to do. Also do some Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and Monster Hunter World: Iceborne.
Outer Worlds on PC and I'm really liking it so far. I installed MediEvil this morming, but I haven't touched it yet. And I might play some Dragon Quest XI on Switch for a bit. My big focus will be Outer Worlds.
In the middle of playing Rage 2, working on my Torchlight 2 plat, and Cat Quest 2. Also, I'm playing through the Towera of Time with the Terminator.
Call of Duty Modern Warfare, mainly for the campaign.
Outer Worlds and Divinity Original Sin 2
I'm nearing the end stretch in Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair. I do plan on getting the platinum, which shouldn't be too hard.
Started The Outer Worlds this afternoon and it looks gorgeous so far. Already had that Fallout vibe when the game started.
Metro Exodus for me, really enjoying it so far! I have several games on my hard drive waiting to play so feel I need to work through them before buying anything new!
Finishing up Metal Gear Solid 2 and some 8-bit Armies.
@ApostateMage @Nyne11Tyme @R1spam @playstation1995 @BridgeToClarity im really liking it so far, combat is very good. Open world is well designed and doesnt feel empty like alot of them do.
@ellsworth004 the music, atmosphere and combat are nothing short of stellar. I really wished i knew where the United Front team ended up. They were some really talented guys and gals.
Edit***
The fact you had (or felt obligated) to reply to 4 people based off of their comments to you on this game speaks volumes to its quality and fanbase....😁
@Nyne11Tyme seeing all the comments made really makes me excited to continue playing this game. As far as feeling obligated to respond to peoples posts about something i said, not so much, if someone is nice enough to take the time to reply to a post, then i try to show thanks. And im a pretty outgoing person and i like to talk lol.
Pretty busy for the next weeks - I’m switching between Modern Warfare and Trails of Cold Steel 3 ^^
League of Legends...I'm waiting for next friday to buy Luigi Mansion and Modern Warfare if my betting sunday goes well!
Also waiting for that little indie game with a capsule baby! It's a Liam review so it will be a good one to read!
