It’s another roasting weekend in the UK at least, so we’re thinking of cooking our eggs on the pavement tomorrow morning. Just kidding – that would violate the five second rule, and would probably ruin our fry-up.

I don’t really know what’s happened to me lately, but I’ve found myself hooked on GTA Online. The game drives me up the wall sometimes, with its horrific controls and network issues. But there’s nothing else quite like it, and it’s such an enormous experience now I can’t stop finding new things to do.

I’m going to be having a whale of a time this weekend as I team up with Vin Diesel and Michelle Rodriguez in Fast & Furious Crossroads! I'm hoping it'll at least be a source of some dumb fun, but besides that, I'll be slowly working my way towards the Ghost of Tsushima Platinum Trophy.
Just the two of us again this week – we couldn’t get a response out of Ramsey even if we threatened him with a goat’s cheese and rocket pizza. Fortunately, you’re all continuing to bring the love in the comments section, and for that we really appreciate you.

Finishing up yet another play through of GTA V, just in the opening hours of BioShock Infinite and the occasional few rounds of Fall Guys.
Have fun everyone!
Fall Guys and Guacamelee 2. Both hilarious so it's a solid combo.
GOT, this game has gripped me. I will be spending the hot weekend sitting in a dark room with a fan and shouting angrily at eagles and archers, when I undoubtedly forget to block.
Still playing the rise of the tomb raider that I got free last month. Very nice game.
Tsushima still ! So busy at work so not had much time so far, about 15 hrs in but loving it
Tales of Berseria - the best Tales game so far ! Great combat system
Dead or Alive 6 - back in love with one of the best fighters ever, but getting utterly spanked online constantly lol
Have a good weekend guys ♥️
Marvel's avengers BETA. Enjoying it so far!
I'm having a blast with the hilarious and cheotic Fall Guys!
In between I'm planning to continue my playthrough in Yakuza Kiwami. I'm really enjoying the full and alive, even if small Kamurocho district.
Beside that I'm considering to go back and finish Broken Age, or maybe to my Zion-centered Team in NBA 2K20. Or even start Gravity Rush 2, that sitting at my library way too long ..
Having got the Crosscode platinum this morning I’m not entirely sure what to do next...
Still playing ghost of tshushima, about 50+ hours in the game and still in chapter 1 😅. It's kind of crazy that this game can begin and end on just 1 chapter but I already got my money worth 😀
To be fair I'm exploring all the available island before going to chapter 2 and opening a new environment, I want to finish all the sidequest first and then go to chapter 2. Beginning to enjoy the ghost side of the game, killing from behind is faster and more efficent, still enjoying the samurai side thought, the samurai combat is so good.
Getting back on PSVR, so its been the Iron Man demo (I'll have to buy it now), Astro Bot, Superhot VR, Ace Combat, Moss, I Expect You to Die and many more. Im also gonna try out Fall Guys as it looks a lot of fun and I've picked up Dreams so that'll keep me busy for a while
Red Dead Redemption 2, Bioshock 1, and Yuppie Psycho for me.
Possibly nothing as it's too bloody hot!
I did finish Demon's Souls the other day so there's one checked off the backlog list.
Have been meaning to play A Plague Tale for a while now so might start that this evening.
Perhaps might even jump into the N.Sane Trilogy again after my excitement for the series was raised again given how good Crash Bandicoot 4 looks.
PS4 - Ghost of Tsushima
Switch - Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition
@AJ1 This is my favorite Tomb Raider game.
Was playing Ghost of T but I got some dlc for Civilization 6 and it's been "one more turn ever since". 😝 The amount of content is amazing and top notch.
Started A Plague Tale which is a very quality game with at lot of hearts & efforts from the dev from top to bottom. Top notch. Enjoying it very much.
Meanwhile on Hitman 2, I'm at Santa Fortuna currently & this game truly takes up a lot of my limited gaming time. Loving it & can't wait for Hitman 3. On the side, also mix in a little PES 2020 to scratch that football game itch.
Happy gaming everyone!
Was gonna work through the backlog, then I ended up giving in to temptation. So I'm finally playing Ghost and it is fantastic!
More PS3 PS+ backlog for me with Kingdoms of Amalur Reckoning. Such a good game and it holds up really well considering its age.
Mostly playing Destroy all humans, played the first part of Final Fantasy 7, plan to continue with that, just hasn't gripped me yet. Also, will probably have another try of Fall guys, when a played the first day, kept getting kicked of the server.
Cuphead and blasphamous.2 amazing games.im having fun.word life.word is bond.word to your mother.word ☝ up son
Been playing DiRT 4 after picking it up in the sale for £4.99. I had this game in 2017 and not sure why I sold it... Rally on 'racer' mode reminds me of 90s arcade style Rally games, and the 60fps is great.
I'm almost very nearly finished Act 1 of Ghost of Tsushima. Just stopped for lunch when I joined up with my allies to discuss freeing my uncle. It looks like this will keep me occupied for weekends to come, which is great as it's quickly becoming one of my favourites of the gen.
Keep cool gamers and and your PS4s cooler!
NG+ on The Last of Us 2 (on Survivor+). When I'm done I'm going on a jrprg binge! Just got FFX/X2 and I'm buying Dragon Quest 11, Ni No Kuni 2 and Judgment in the Summer Sale These will last me till X-Mas I think. Stay cool in this heat everyone!
Feeling real old school lately. I’ll be playing the Sega Genesis and Turbo Grafx 16 Mini. Probably just play Street Fighter V and Samurai Shodown on PS4.
Fall Guys, taking on such hilarious games as 'Slime Climb', 'Fruit Chute' and the dreaded 'Beat the Servers'
Playing God of War... What to say? Gerontohero with some maggot, who is still crossing my feet. Beautiful graphics, horrible gameplay.
I have been bouncing between games with nothing sticking since completing Tsushima, I had a good run at Sekiro but found myself getting worn down by one of the boss fights on NG+.
I have settled into Hollow Knight at the moment, such a stellar game, so I'll be playing that with some Everybody's Golf to mix things up a little.
Have a great weekend everyone.
@shonenjump86
I had an Odroid system bought for me by my wife at Christmas with every retro game you could name. It's interesting that I always felt Nintendo was superior to Sega, but the more MegaDrive games I play, the less certain I am of that. I beat Revenge of Shinobi a few weeks ago and was blown away by it.... That music!
Fall Guys and Destroy all Humans
I am about 4 hours into Ghosts of Tsushima, and I am loving everything about the game so far. Can’t wait to play more!
Slowly chipping at Death Stranding and some online coop in Remnant From the Ashes
Banjo-Kazooie (N64) - Starting out in Gobi's Valley, glad to be done with Clanker's Cavern...
Fallout 3 (Games For Windows) - Nearly 3/4 through the game now.
Angry Birds (Windows Phone) - Starting the third area now.
Just finished Killzone Shadow Fall and I can’t believe how well it stands up considering it’s 7 years old. I’m just getting started on Greedfall and have enjoyed the first 3 hours
COD, havent played in a few weeks so im rusty as hell
On my second play of TLOU 2. Normally I would never replay a game so soon. But it is just a masterclass in game design and so enjoyable to play.
Maybe very little, so hungover today. First time in a very lovely beer garden for a very long time. Me and mates were reasonably sensible but can confirm (breaking news), wasted people don't pay much attention to social distancing!! Hopefully get together enough to try some fall guys but more likely to fire up the bbq and get my munch on. Happy weekend people
Finally go into a few games of Fall Guys then. Great fun! Surprised it took so long for a Takeshi's Castle style game.
Fall Guys and a plate cleanser after having finished Far Cry 3, prolly Steamworld Dig or Seasons after Fall!
The brilliant Judgement, the well better than Breakpoint Wildlands and of course Red Dead Online.
Some weird combo of Saints Row 3 (PSnow), Fairytail, One Piece Pirate Warriors 4 & Man-Eater. None are really within platinum striking distance. So probably just bounce around.
I finally got some gaming time in early this morning so I've been playing Sonic Mania and Snowrunner since around 1:30am. I'll try Snowrunner in multiplayer tonight (thanks Sony) and may finally jump into Horizon Zero Dawn. I saw the comparisons of PS4 and PC and that reminded me I never actually started my copy on PS4
GoT I've no idea how big this game is as I've put maybe 30-40 hours into it and only just rescued Lord Shimura, Such a great game. Love the combat, especially the boss battles, always done in a great setting with brilliant music!
Keep playing Ghost of Tsushima. I keep being distracted with the side quests and exploring that I'm still in Act 1.
I may also download Fall Guys and give it a try since it's on PS Plus. It looks like a fun time.
@djlard still can't understand those who hype this game beyond belief. I totally agree on gameplay, the maps are long corridors, the story is a prologue at best.
FF7R. Thoroughly enjoying the hour to hour and a half I get to play a few nights a week. I'm about 8 hours in and I'm in chapter 6. I do worry that my characters levels aren't quite high enough. Can anyone let me know if I'm too low at this stage of the game? The trio of cloud, Barrett and tifa are just about to hit level 16. And without giving up too much of the story, I just finished shutting off those three very bright things....
Tried fall guys last night for about an hour. It was ummm interesting. I guess I don't see all the hooplah. I hate door dash! Also there seems to be a lot of network issues with it right now. The best I placed was in the final 12 haha. I found the game to be clunky and sluggish, maybe that's the point?? Who knows??
It's so hot im not even sure I'll be playing anything but if I do it will be the fantastic Ghost Of Tsushima.I'm on Act 2 and just going wherever the wind takes me.
I may also play some Death Stranding this weekend or maybe Atelia Firis which I started recently.
Also,if I can actually get on the server today I'll have a bit of fun on Fallguys.
Still Ghost of Tsushima. Maybe some Nioh 2 at some point.
I mean this with all respect I don’t know but don’t y’all have air-conditioning in a Great Britain? Maybe it stays cool most of the time? I’ve never been across the pond so I don’t know. Somebody please educate me. Still playing dragon quest builders big game. Ray Rowland in Surry Virginia!
I've been working on some older games this week.
PS4 - Assassin's Creed Black Flag and replaying Phoenix Wright Trilogy (that game never gets old!)
PC - Dragon Quest XI (added the mod to change all button prompts to PS4 and fully orchestral audio!)
Just completed Shadow of the Colossus and it’s got to be one of the most overrated games I have ever played. Worst gameplay ever
I'm absolutely loving the Avengers beta (despite some game-breaking bugs) so I'll be playing a lot of that. Also carrying on with SAO: Alicization Lycoris and no doubt a bit of Fall Guys to top it all off.
@Lovespuds I loved the Nintendo and SNES but I was more of a Sega guy back in the day. And yes the music in the Shinobi game is great.
Resident evil 3 platinum, nearly finished my nightmare run then just inferno S rank then a no chest run then it’s mine 😊
@omero Everybody hype it because of graphics, which is stunning. Unfortunately thats all. I don't mind it is corridor, better than open world, but game is somehow "slow". 3 hours of gameplay and still can count enemies on my fingers. Total disbalance of Kratos. Once he is HULK, a few seconds later he is grandpa Simpson.... still don't know what to think about it... and that constantly shaking camera and "dead space" side third person view makes me nauseated 🤢.
Since it's FREE online this weekend, I'll be playing RDR2/O, GTAO, FIFA20, PES2020, SFV and any other game I feel like. I don't believe in paying for Online play. It should be FREE, It's enough paying ISPs.
Shin Megami Tensei 4 Apocalypse, having a blast but it's not as good as the original SMT 4. Can't wait for SMT 5 on the switch! Haven't been playing on my PlayStation much recently.
@LobsterJohnson Must keep in mind it is PS2 game. In those times it was great. Now it is just empty huge map. Except that meaningless traveling, those fights were fun. ☺️
I've been plugging through my backlog and I'm about to finish Owlboy.
@NYJetsfan123 your probably OK you finish up at about level 50, you can always farm the smaller enemies if you feel you need to do so!
A Plague Tale replay for me to snag the platinum. Great game but not very much replay value so it's a bit of a slog. Then maybe a replay of FF7 Remake and the Thronebreaker Witcher game for the platinums going into the week.
Trying to like fall guys but I think it's pretty ropey. Back to rocket league...
@djlard Don’t get me wrong, Bluepoint did an amazing job. The lighting, music, atmosphere is top notch but I just wish they had built the control system for The Wanderer from the ground up. I would class it as frustratingly beautiful.
I don’t know why, but I’ve been on an Xbox One kick lately, so I’m playing Gears 5, even though I own Ghosts of Tsushima (and haven’t started it) and Halo 2 classic multiplayer.
Was playing last of us 2 on my second playthrough but i must say its a struggle so soon with completed it .and caved in and got ghosts of Tsushima as everyone i know was telling me how goog it is .. must say loving it so far great game .will have to leave iron man vr for another time lol ill get to it soon 🤞
Rocking the AVENGERS beta since yesterday. I am really enjoying it. Feels like a fun brawler with great multiplayer options and upgrades. Really captures the spectacle of Marvel comics. A solid 7 so far.
Been off the ps4 for a few days while I get the backlog from other consoles down.
So just Breath of Wild on Switch for me.
I’m catching up on Marvel’s Spider-man.
It’s never too late
Ghost of Tsushima and NBA2K20. One these is an awesome generational game that is a joy to explore in and play around with the mechanics. The other is .... a decent enough game, but I’m glad I got it for free.
Finished GOW2 now on to greedfall getting my moneys worth from Now also some WD S&S on VR
This weekend is all about Fall Guys. Game of the year, baby!
Fall guys is great and relaxing to me, I’m on GOT of course taking my time, Playing GOW for the first time I’m in love, and NFS Heat
I'm playing the Avengers Beta!
PS4: I'm hoping to try out the Avengers Beta tomorrow, and maybe go back to my replay of Tomb Raider (2013).
Xbox 360: I've been playing thru the OG Alan Wake finally, completely understand why this game was loved so much.
PS3: I haven't touched my PS3 in ages, mostly due to my PS4/Xbox and fear of it not working anymore.
I may try and turn it on soon, see if I can continue where I left off at in God of War II.
I was going to say COD Modern Warfare Remastered, but I did the campaign in 4 short evening sessions. I'm glad it was a freebie. Maybe I'll try GTA online again, now I have some millions to spend.
Greedfall on PS4plus, really enjoying this game so far. 3 hours in.
Also started skyrim for the first time on the switch.
I couldnt have picked longer games
@Arugula Thanks for the info!
@LobsterJohnson
I didn't enjoy SOTC either. I packed in after the 6th or 7th colossus. I found it boring.
@tinCAT-zero It’s not that I found it boring, I actually enjoyed the story and the build up to the colossi battles. However, the gameplay for me was just horrendous.
@zeppray We have aircon but because it’s only hot for like 2 days a year. I don’t think many people bother installing it.
@LobsterJohnson thanks 😊
