Very moreish game, and it’s not particularly a genre I play a lot so I’m hyped for this! The character models and art style is very well done and polished.
Hardspace Shipbreaker is fantastic. Both relaxing time sink and tense puzzle game with a nice little story wrapped up in it, I would recommend getting on it before it’s gone!
Jurassic World Evolution 2 repeatedly caused my PS5 to overheat and shutdown for some reason. Never happened with any other game. Shame as the first one was great!
In the spirit of Activision, I have used AI to generate my comment below:
While it's interesting to see Activision embracing AI for marketing, it raises some important questions about creativity and authenticity. AI can streamline production, but can it truly capture the spirit and unique storytelling that fans expect from a brand like Call of Duty? It’ll be interesting to see if AI-generated materials resonate with audiences or feel more like a soulless cash grab.
This guy is like a digital Indiana Jones, cool job! Would be interesting to see exactly what has been collected?
Being pragmatic though, genuinely not sure how useful most of this actually is. Unless it’s going to be shared then I imagine most of it will just sit on a hard drive never to be looked at again, much like all the buried stuff in a museums basement.
I will respectfully disagree to add some balance, I didn’t think it was very good at all compared to some of the others, so it’s not a surprise to me to see it not nominated or acknowledged.
After finishing Ghost Recon Breakpoint, I went back to try Wildlands but it was too much jank at 30fps. Sad times. So instead I started Two Point Campus and having a great time with that! Will continue (mis)educating the digital masses with that.
Pleasantly surprised to find this is £40 on the store. Bargain! The first Coaster and Zoo are excellent sims so expecting the same greatness from this one.
I don’t really get Betas like this. Who is it for? Die hard fans will want to play it, but why give them a sub-par impression with a rubbish build? Surely they’ll want the best experience of a full game?
Anyone mildly interested will play the awful build and not want to pay for the full game.
Anyone not interested will just ignore this and the full game anyway.
I’d take a Resistence remake, but a remaster of something new like Horizon or Days Gone is just silly, what’s the point when the existing games still look and play great??

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 561
I found Darktide too hard and too long. So many 29 minute missions failed at the last minute and lost all progress. Needs shorter missions.
Just away with the fam so playing Marvel Snap on the phone before going home to the PS5. Trying to hit Infinite for the first time.
Re: Game of the Year: #8 - Dragon's Dogma 2
‘Stunted storytelling and wooden characters’ - you’re not selling it to me!
Still waiting to pick it up once they fix the frame rate issues.

Re: Intergalactic PS5's Toxic Detractors Peddling Patently Fake 'Leaked' Story Details
What agenda do these people have, honestly have no idea why people are upset with this. Because a female is bald? Or am I missing something??
Re: Borderlands 4 Promises Not to Be Aggressively Unfunny
@Overmind I was thinking the exact same thing. Always been a fan of BL, and spent 70 hours with BL3 but I cannot tell you a single thing about it.

Re: Delightful Photography Adventure Toem Is Getting a Sequel
Great little series, will be on the wishlist for sure.

Re: Sony Brings Back Iconic PS1 Startup Screen on PS5, But Only for a Limited Time
Oooh the startup, I love it!!
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 557
I have a code to download Darktide but I don’t know if it’ll be working yet as it’s not released until the 3rd.
Otherwise I’ll be playing Two Point Hospital after getting the platinum on Campus and loving it.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for December 2024?
Aliens and Temtem look fun.
No interest in It Takes Two, rubbish choice.
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for December 2024 Announced
It Takes Two - might be good but stuck behind a co-op ‘wall’
Aliens and Temtem worth a play though! Exactly the kind of games I would try and probably like, but never buy, so great games to have on the service.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 556
ROCK AND STONE!
I have dipped back into Deep Rock Galactic which is amazing but I’ve also done the £10 upgrade for Horizon so maybe will start that.

Re: 13 PS5, PS4 Games Set to Leave PS Plus Extra, Premium Next Month
Tinykin was one of my games of the year. Made me feel like an excited little kid again when playing it - great game.
Re: 17 Games Land on PS Plus Extra, Premium Next Week
Hugely disappointing. I am sure most of these were on the service before at some point before being removed and come back?
Re: Survive in Style with Forever Skies Demo's PS5 Exclusive Airship Skin
Looks great, will try it for sure.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 554
Still educating the masses on Two Point Campus and getting all the 3-stars. Great game.
Re: Nintendo and The Pokémon Company Want to Stop the Sale of Palworld
You use ‘Pal Spheres’ to catch monsters? Legally they might be alright but come on, that’s Pokemon all over right?
Re: MultiVersus Underperforms, Another $100 Million Blow for Warner Bros
Multiversus just plays like a demo. It’s not a full game, so I’m not spending any money on it.

Re: PS Plus Essential Games for November 2024 Announced
Sure I’ve already played Ghostwire and Hot Wheels on the middle plus tier already?? Absolute average I didn’t spend more than an hour on each.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 552
Just finished Ghost Recon Breakpoint which was great, so might go back and try Wildlands to get more of the same.
Re: Sniper Elite: Resistance Gets 2025 Off to a Flyer with January Release Date
Love these games. They don’t mess with the formula and you know exactly what you’re getting. Solid purchase!
Re: Horizon's Sylens Will Be Recast Following the Passing of Lance Reddick
Just watching Vox Machina and being reminded what a great actor he was. Iconic voice.
Re: Poll: One Year Later, How Would You Rate Marvel's Spider-Man 2 on PS5?
I really liked it but it’s about as good it could get, not sure where they can take it now other than more of the same.
The web wings but were too much, spent the entire game gliding and not swinging.
People love the idea of Venom, but nobody likes any representation of him in any media other than comics.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 551
I am playing through Ghost Recon Breakpoint which is fun, but my stealth approach inevitably goes south and it escalates with grenade launchers.
Re: PS5's New Welcome Page Rolling Out to UK Accounts
Mine showed up today at lunchtime. Mostly clutter but there are a few nice things on there.
Re: Amazon MMO New World: Aeternum Out Now on PS5
Playing Throne and Liberty sure put me off wanting to play anything else they published.
Re: Huge List of 18 Major Games to Leave PS Plus Extra, Premium Next Month
Chorus is a shame, it’s probably the best space combat game I’ve ever played.
Superliminal in a great puzzle game too!
Re: The Stone of Madness Starts 2025 Off with Tactical Stealth Action
This looks like it could be excellent if it’s like Desperados/shadow gambit etc

Re: Classic PS4 Racer DriveClub Is Now a Decade Old
The last great track racing game in my humble opinion, never enjoyed an another track racer as much as this since then.

@ShogunRok and Priority access for those with Knack 2.
Re: Rumour: Concord Cost $400 Million, Sony Believed It Was the 'Future of PlayStation'
No way this is true, this is just people sticking the knife in.
There’s no way they could have ever spent that amount of money on this game.

Re: Minecraft Is Dropping PSVR Support Early Next Year
My son loves playing this in VR. So I guess that’s stopping because… ???
How hard can it be to leave in a mode where you can use VR but it just doesn’t have new features they add.
Re: 10 Major PS5, PS4 Games Are Getting Axed from PS Plus Extra, Including LittleBigPlanet 3
I’d skip the other DQ games and go straight to Builders. The 2nd one in particular is absolute class.
Re: Co-Op Action FPS Warhammer 40k: Darktide Should Finally Be Announced for PS5 Soon
Vermintide was great, looking forward to this as can never get enough 40k.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 546
Started Spider-Man 2 which is just excellent.
Finally fixed my broken controller (after the update) by taking it apart and unplugging the battery which reset it.
