Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 497

Dudditz09

I've just picked up The Crew Motorfest because I wanted something similar to FH on PS5 and to be fair, I'm enjoying it much more than FH4 & 5 although it cannot get to grips with the planes 😂

So it will be between that and BG3 this weekend for me, the weather is miserable so cant see me stepping outside other than to drag the dogs out.

Hope you all have a good weekend!

Re: Assassin's Creed: Mirage PS5, PS4 Global Unlock Times Revealed

I loved the early games, found the more recent entries too long winded and bloated, I never did try Valhalla because of that, and the theme for that was right up my street as well.

I'm tempted to give this a go, fancy it as an Xmas pick up to kick back and chill with over the break, hopefully a wee nostalgia kick.

Baldurs Gate 3, probably a little bit of Baldurs Gate Three to break it up a bit and some BG3 if I get bored of doing that.

In all seriousness I was gonna fire up Starfield today to give it a try but in all honesty, as much as I was quite looking forward to it, my hype for it has wained somewhat because of Baldurs Gate 3. I might get to it a some point but looking at the release schedule over the next month or so, it's fallen so far down my list I can see me never actually getting to it. Looks like just another Bethesda game from what I have seen, not overly concerned that I'll be missing out on much at all if I don't ever get around to it.

Re: Poll: Did You Buy Baldur's Gate 3?

Dudditz09

I have had it since the weekend as I bought the deluxe version and I am loving it, haven't been able to devote a huge amount of time to it but had a good couple of hours tonight.

Looking forward to a quiet weekend to get a decent run at it.

I have a feeling it's going to be one of those games that leaves me feeling like nothing can match it for a while afterwards. Much like when I completed The Witcher 3, took a while for anything to hit the spot after that.

I have been playing this since Saturday night and what's really annoying me at this point is that I have a job and kids, cause they mean less play time.

Superb game, I've yet to really scratch the surface but I am loving it so far.

I actually think Starfield can wait at this point, I'm gonna be on BG3 for a while.

Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for September 2023?

Dudditz09

I have no interest in any of them, will no doubt add them all to my library and never play them.

To be fair though I've just started BG3, Starfield in a couple of days, Cyberpunk DLC and with all the changes, that will need a new playthrough, Cities Skylines 2 and Spidey 2 in October. And I'll probably pick up EAFC24 to see what that is like.

So I will have plenty to keep me amused over the next 2 months

Re: PS5, PS4 Owners Are Understandably Irate with PS Plus Price Hike

Dudditz09

I'm out completely once my Extra sub is done, I don't use PS Plus enough to even justify even having essential tbh.

Prices rises are bad enough at the minute, companies the world over recording record profit whilst people struggle. It's price gouging, pure and simple. We accept it so it carries on.

Yes gaming is a luxury and PS Plus will be treat as such by me, hopefully many who are unhappy follow the same train of thought but I doubt it.

I've never been one to overly bash Sony, or any gaming company for that matter, they are business doing business things, you may agree with them, you may not. I own all 3 consoles at the minute, as well as a Steam Deck to scratch my strategy itch when needed, I'm lucky in that regard that I can afford to own them all, I certainly don't fanboy for any console neither, I'm 38 ffs 😂

So it's not a negative on Sony, the state of gaming at the moment is down the toilet at the minute, in my opinion of course.

I have online for all 3 consoles, those days will be ending across the board, maybe with the exception of the Switch as the kid uses it a lot.

Once this gen has run it's course I'll be moving over to PC, Sony hasn't wowed me this gen (same can be said for XBox although I am looking forward to Starfield), there have been a couple of good exclusives but to be honest it's nothing that I couldn't wait to play on a PC down the line.

Re: PS Plus Essential, Extra, Premium Price Increases Announced by Sony

Dudditz09

I'll be honest, I don't feel I get bang for my buck personally for my £83 Extra as I hardly use it, but that's on me, not Sony. Objectively it is probably value for money.

I used it a bit at the start but now, I've been too busy with games I have bought that aren't on the service.

Mines runs until next summer so I'll leave it for now but I won't be renewing, certainly not for £100 and I don't really see much point in jumping on another year right now neither.

Re: Mid-Generation Upgrades Like PS5 Pro 'Aren't All That Meaningful', Says Take-Two CEO

Dudditz09

Not for me at this stage, not viable for me to be buying two of the 'same' console per gen, would be more likely to buy an Xbox (which I generally do later in the gen) just to play the few exclusives that has.

That said if mid term refreshes are now gonna be a thing, which it seems they are, likelihood is I just don't jump on a PS6 at launch (if it happens in a traditional form) and just hang on for a couple of years until the Pro version is released.

Re: Now's the Best Time to Play This New PS Plus Game

Dudditz09

Christ, I remember my parents taking me to see it at the cinema, certainly doesn't feel like 30 years ago... I would have been 8.

Not played either of these, always been tempted as I love a good park/city builder game, I just have so many that I've never took the plunge.

I'll be sure to give this a bash though, looking forward to it

Re: EA Sports PGA Tour (PS5) - Truly Stunning Sim Plays a Very Pretty Round of Virtual Golf

Dudditz09

I've had it since the start of the week and whilst it's enjoyable, more so for me than 2k23, I would hope we get a 60fps patch soon, to maybe fix the swing as it feels a bit heavy and the timing seems a little off.

Having fun with it though, cracking recreations of the courses, I started my Amatuer at St Andrews as it's just down the road from me and they done a cracking job with it, Augusta looks amazing as well.

Re: Oh No, 'Exciting' Persona News Has Been Teased Again

Dudditz09

I'm going with a re-re(re?) release of P5. Super Dooper Phantom version which adds 5 new Personas and 3 additional lines of dialogue for all the main characters. And a new cut scene.

All for only £84.99.

And if it's not that and it is actually P6 well I will be mighty upset.
