My PS+ is up next week's so I'll probably upgrade to extra, couple of games I've not played that I've never felt like buying but wouldn't mind giving a go.
Reckon I'll take a 3 monther then bump it back down, anything I desperately want to play I would rather purchase if I'm honest.
I'm not huge on going back to old games and if I ever get the urge I have all the old consoles so can't see me ever having a need for premium.
Only one wishlist game on sale which is Trek To Yomi but I'll pass just now, not because of the price, just got too much to play and not a lot of time to play at the minute.
I only pick up DA:I because it was something like £4 in a sale and I was looking for something to play, had a good time with it. Hand played any other DA games.
I hope not, not much of a fan of GoW (and already played it on the PSPlus Collection) the other two... All Star Brawl might be fun to play with the wee man. That's about it.
I can't decide whether I expect they will be god awful to try to push people to try one of the higher tiers of they will pull an absolute blinder to build some hype before the NA and Euro launches.
I picked up Toejam and Earl and RE3 in the sale so the plan is to finish up RE2 and start on 3, and will be playing some TJ&E online with my old man for a wee bit of nostalgia.
The kid has just picked up a PSP so no doubt there will be some time spent on that as well
Could the sports game be their delve back into golf? Get it out in March, a month or so before The Masters. Have Agusta/The Masters officially licenced, make a killing among golf gamers
@The_Moose I had never played Xcom before getting 2, that and the War of the Chosen expansion are fantastic, looooong load times on the PS4, never tried it on the PS5 though
I've hardly touched the PS5 over the past couple of weeks but FIFA will get me back too it, not bought it this year (or last) so will see what it's like. I don't expect much will have changed. Was never big on FUT so not like I've missed a season worth of fleecing.
The other games I'll probably add to my library with the intention of playing and never get round to them.
Any time I have gone back to an old game, not a remake, I never feel like the hold up.
Not interest in the top tier service at all personally, but my kid wants its.
Trying to put the stoppers on that, just bought him a second hand PS2, he already has a PS3 and he like to collect retro consoles, so hopefully this will work out cheaper as we can just pick up the games we want and not be forking out for a service that will probably be full of filler.
Can't think of many that haven't been posted. PS1 & 2 days were such good times but I just can't go back to those games now, most just don't hold up for me.
However, if they have Pandemonium! then I could be massively tempted
Love this on the PC but my laptop fried in December and with having a desktop, I can't justify a new laptop at the min. Unfortunately the desktop can't handle this.
Tempted to get it but I'm not sure I'll be able to play it with a controller, IMO really needs a mouse/keyboard. If it has/gets support for that I'll pick it up
Essential for me, purely because I sometimes play online with a couple of mates or my old man.
Old games etc, not for me. I've got my old consoles if I want to play them and my son is an avid collector of retro consoles and games so if I ever feel the need, I'll just make do with that.
It's not overly impressive for the price IMO but it's pretty much entirely what I expected.
At a push I'd maybe go for "Extra" but really, if there is a game I want I'd prefer to just buy it so as I have access to it when I want and not have it tied to the subscription.
I don't want or expect it to be like game pass but if the more expensive tiers don't include much else than the ability to play older games I'll pass, personally can't see the appeal in going back to the PS1/2 days, whenever I have tried, the games I loved never seem to hold up as well as I remember.
Suppose we will find out soon enough, not expecting anything ground breaking but would love it if they sprung a cracking surprise on us.
Kena for me with a little bit of Frost Punk thrown in as well as GT7, gonna get my boy racer on and put some of those 1m credits kitting out a VW Golf for no real reason.
When the wee man goes to bed I'll nick the Switch and start a Kirby save as well I think, had fun with the demo.
On the off chance I get through Kena I'll move on to Deathloop.

Nice update, been a wee while since I've picked this up but a few new menus will get me back into it

Re: Call of the Wild: The Angler Is the Open World Fishing Game You Never Knew You Wanted
This is the sort of game I have no interest in but can see myself picking up on sale for a laugh and getting hooked...
I'll get my coat.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 431
Shredders Revenge with the kid, done a couple of levels already but not had a huge amount of time so gonna get stuck in this weekend.
RE2 PS5 edition will be getting fired up as well.
Have a good one!
Re: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge (PS4) - Brilliant Beat-'Em-Up Is Best in Co-Op
Just downloaded, waiting on the wee man to get in from school to crack on.
Nice to get a couple of quid discount as well.
Re: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge (PS4) - Brilliant Beat-'Em-Up Is Best in Co-Op
Looking forward to this, loved the TMNT games as a kid and looking forward to a play through with the wee man
Re: PS5 Exclusive Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart Is a Year Old
I loved it, great game, would have maybe liked a little longer but in reality it was probably a good length.
Might give it another play through sometime over the summer.
Re: Isometric 1920s Shooter Enemy of the State Coming to PS5 in, Um, 2024
Sounds like something that would be of interest. Defo one to keep any eye out for.
Re: Poll: Will You Buy The Last of Us: Part I?
Completed it on PS3 and again when the Remaster came out in PS4.
That's plenty.
Re: Casey Jones Joins the Roster in TMNT: Shredder's Revenge, Launching 16th June on PS4
Day one. And I'm buying a pizza. Maybe two.
Re: Rumour: TMNT: Shredder's Revenge Eats Pizza and Parties to PS4 Very Soon
@get2sammyb for sure
Re: Rumour: TMNT: Shredder's Revenge Eats Pizza and Parties to PS4 Very Soon
Can't wait, been looking forward to this and the Cowabunga collection.
Re: Resident Evil 2, 3, and 7 PS5 Versions Probably Out Next Week
I am yet to actually finish 2 and still have 3 to start, so I think I'll just wait and play through them both with the patch
Re: Rock That Resident Evil 4 Remake Style IRL with Leon's Actual Jacket
Is that all?
In that case, I'll take two please.
Re: Dragon Age: Dreadwolf Is the Official Name of BioWare's Fourth Entry
I only pick up DA:I because it was something like £4 in a sale and I was looking for something to play, had a good time with it. Hand played any other DA games.
Will probably look to pick this up at some point
Re: Days of Play 2022: The Best Discounts on PS5, PS4 Games and Accessories
Picked myself up a Nova Pink dual sense for £45 last week, nothing games wise taking my I terest though.
Re: Rumour: PS Plus Games for June 2022 Might Have Leaked
I hope not, not much of a fan of GoW (and already played it on the PSPlus Collection) the other two... All Star Brawl might be fun to play with the wee man. That's about it.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 428
Got a 2nd Dual Sense on Amazon with a few quid off the other day so been playing a bit of resogun multiplayer with the wee man.
Other than that we have cracked out the old mega drive and have been playing some classic sonic.
Tomorrow I plan to start on the RE3 Remake
Re: Talking Point: What PS Plus Games for PS5, PS4 in June 2022 Do You Want?
I can't decide whether I expect they will be god awful to try to push people to try one of the higher tiers of they will pull an absolute blinder to build some hype before the NA and Euro launches.
Probably just be meh...
Re: PS Plus Games for Asia Officially Confirmed
If we get that list here there are a few games on the extra list I have never bothered to buy but would take a few months sub to play through them.
Premium or whatever it's called list is of no interest, got my old consoles if I ever want to go down that route
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 427
@gollumb82 we have just got a PS2 as well
We got an HDMI adapter for it and it works well enough
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 427
I picked up Toejam and Earl and RE3 in the sale so the plan is to finish up RE2 and start on 3, and will be playing some TJ&E online with my old man for a wee bit of nostalgia.

Re: Two New PS Store Sales Live Now, 250+ PS5, PS4 Games Discounted
Think I'm gonna pick up Toejam & Earl Back In The Groove.
That will probably be it, tempted by RE3 but I, need to go back and finish up RE2
Re: Mini Review: Unpacking (PS5) - Making Chores Fun
I'm tempted. Might pick it up over the weekend
Re: EA's Lineup for 2023 Includes an Unannounced Remake, a 'Major IP', and More

Re: PS Store Extended Play Sale Flogs Pricey PS5, PS4 Ultimate Editions
@The_Moose I had never played Xcom before getting 2, that and the War of the Chosen expansion are fantastic, looooong load times on the PS4, never tried it on the PS5 though
Re: PS Store Extended Play Sale Flogs Pricey PS5, PS4 Ultimate Editions
Empire of Sin is one that I am I interested in but some of the reviews put me off.
Think it needs to be a little lower for me to take the plunge
Re: Mini Review: This War of Mine: Final Cut (PS5) - Sombre Survival Hits Hard
@GMaster7 Frostpunk is fantastic, defo worth a go.
I have this on my mobile, it's fine for me in short bursts. Not exactly light hearted but a a decent enough game
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Games for May 2022?
I've hardly touched the PS5 over the past couple of weeks but FIFA will get me back too it, not bought it this year (or last) so will see what it's like. I don't expect much will have changed. Was never big on FUT so not like I've missed a season worth of fleecing.

Re: Rumour: PS Plus Premium's PS1, PS2, PSP Games Have Started to Leak
@misak192 nope, same here.
Any time I have gone back to an old game, not a remake, I never feel like the hold up.
Not interest in the top tier service at all personally, but my kid wants its.

Salted Caramel for me.
Zoos are always good fun, I don't have any ice cream related zoo anecdotes though. Feel like I've never lived...
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 421
Finally beat the storm in the main storyline of Frost Punk so spending the weekend getting into the DLCs for that.
Re: Weird West (PS4) - Ambitious Top-Down RPG Comes Close to Greatness
Looks like one I will pick up in the near future.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 420
Think I'm gonna pick up GT7 again, haven't played it other than to collect my credits. Need to crack on with the final few menus and the last licence.
Other than that, finished Kena this week, was a decent game, great in 60fps. Wasn't blown away but it was enjoyable.
So I'll probably move on to Death Loop as well.
And throw in some Frost Punk for good measure.

Re: Talking Point: What PS1, PS2, and PSP Games Do You Want on PS Plus Premium?

I'll be honest, I didn't know this even existed.
Re: Huge PS Store Spring Sale Discounts 1,000 PS5, PS4 Games

Wallet just breathed a sigh of relief.
Re: Mini Review: Crusader Kings III: Console Edition (PS5) - Strategic Royalty Rewards Patient Players
Love this on the PC but my laptop fried in December and with having a desktop, I can't justify a new laptop at the min. Unfortunately the desktop can't handle this.
Tempted to get it but I'm not sure I'll be able to play it with a controller, IMO really needs a mouse/keyboard. If it has/gets support for that I'll pick it up
Re: Poll: Will You Subscribe to Sony's New PS Plus Tiers?
Essential for me, purely because I sometimes play online with a couple of mates or my old man.
Old games etc, not for me. I've got my old consoles if I want to play them and my son is an avid collector of retro consoles and games so if I ever feel the need, I'll just make do with that.
It's not overly impressive for the price IMO but it's pretty much entirely what I expected.

Re: PS Plus, PS Now Merged Service Revealed, Goes Live in June
Got by without PS Now so far and playing old games isn't for me
So can't see me changing my sub, I'll just keep the bottom tier.
Good too see some people are happy with it though.
Re: This Week Could Be Big for PlayStation, Say Swirling Rumours

I don't want or expect it to be like game pass but if the more expensive tiers don't include much else than the ability to play older games I'll pass, personally can't see the appeal in going back to the PS1/2 days, whenever I have tried, the games I loved never seem to hold up as well as I remember.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 419
@gollumb82 I'm gonna pick up KCD as well this weekend to add to the backlog.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 419
Kena for me with a little bit of Frost Punk thrown in as well as GT7, gonna get my boy racer on and put some of those 1m credits kitting out a VW Golf for no real reason.
When the wee man goes to bed I'll nick the Switch and start a Kirby save as well I think, had fun with the demo.

Re: Talking Point: What PS Plus Games for PS5, PS4 in April 2022 Do You Want?
@MrGilly69 thanks mate, £9 or so for the royal edition at the minute so think I'll bite the bullet
Re: Talking Point: What PS Plus Games for PS5, PS4 in April 2022 Do You Want?
@MrGilly69 would you recommend Kingdom Come?
I mean I probably don't really need it, always tempted when it hits the sales but yet to pull the trigger on it.
