I'll be playing a lot of Baldur's Gate 3 this weekend. I'm having a blast with it so far. Still only on Act I but I'm still finding lots of stuff to do and explore!
I'm also very tempted to pilot my mech once again in Armored Core 6. That game is undoubtedly one of the best releases of the year, in my opinion! I'm planning on checking out the PvP section also!
Bloodborne looks brilliant at 30fps. Sure, it would look better at 60fps, but it still one of, and in my opinion it is the absolute best PlayStation exclusive out there.
@General_Disarray Not calling those who prefer a higher frame-rate a snob by any means! I mean, if you give me the choice between 30fps and 60fps, I’m obviously going to play at 60fps.
It doesn’t stop me enjoying Bloodborne in all its 30fps glory.
I haven't played Rocket League in absolute yonks! I think seeing some of the skills and flicks players are pulling off nowadays seem a bit beyond me, but I could be tempted to maybe re-download this and play a few games.
It's my first time delving into the series and I'm only a few hours in but I'm absolutely loving it. I had it pre-ordered and I'm not regretting this purchase one bit.
I'll be taking Williams back to the top in F1 Manager 23 this weekend. I've already signed Daniel Ricciardo and been scoring some consistent points, so that's a good start.
I'll also be playing Hunt: Showdown because, well, it's the best FPS game out there.
Plenty of Hunt: Showdown for me this weekend, as per usual. Without a doubt one of the better FPS games out there.
I'm also going to continue my attempts at the Pantheons in Hollow Knight. The OST in this game is so good. Anyway, here's hoping I'll beat the Pantheons eventually. Wish me luck, I'm going to need it!
@Voltan Admittedly, I haven't played a Tekken game since 4, I think, but Yoshimitsu and Lei Wulong were my two favourite characters to play as. Law was a total beast too.
Justin Roiland is funny, man. Rick and Morty proves that. I thought Trover Saves The Universe had some rather hilarious dialogue in it as well. Haven't seen much of this game but if it gets added to the PS+ Extra catalogue then I could be tempted.

Re: Goodbye Volcano High (PS5) - Wonderfully Written, But Stumbles on the Rhythm
@gbanas92 Yeah, it’s just a game genre that doesn’t seem to appeal to me. I’m not bashing or having a go at anyone who plays them by any means.
Maybe I’m missing out though!

Re: Goodbye Volcano High (PS5) - Wonderfully Written, But Stumbles on the Rhythm
Visual novels aren't really my thing but I'm sure there's enjoyment to be had here for someone.
Also, some of these comments. Jesus...
Re: FromSoftware Still Can't Get the Frame Rate Right in Armored Core 6, PS5 Analysis Shows
@General_Disarray No problem!

Re: FromSoftware Still Can't Get the Frame Rate Right in Armored Core 6, PS5 Analysis Shows
Personally, I never encountered any frame rate drops in 70+ hours of playtime. Then again, maybe I’m not enough of a ‘frame-rate snob’ to notice.
Still an absolute beast of a game.

Re: Sony's E3 2010 Press Conference, the One with Kevin Butler, Revived in 1080p
So nice watching a conference where Geoff Keighley isn't on stage.
Re: Upcoming PS5, PS4 Games for September and October 2023
Lies of P is the big one for me, for sure! Really excited to explore Krat in its fullest!
Re: PS Plus Essential, Extra, Premium Price Increases Announced by Sony
Honestly, if I didn’t need PS+ to play online, I’d consider unsubscribing from the service altogether.
Re: Rumour: PS Plus Essential Game for September 2023 Leaked Early
Awful, but it’s free so I shouldn’t complain.
Re: Poll: Did You Buy Armored Core 6?
It's my first time delving into the series and I'm only a few hours in but I'm absolutely loving it. I had it pre-ordered and I'm not regretting this purchase one bit.
Re: 2D Bloodborne-Like Action Game The Last Faith Carves Out a November Release on PS5, PS4
@Quintumply Ah, I thought so! Oh well, I'm still really looking forward to this!
Re: 2D Bloodborne-Like Action Game The Last Faith Carves Out a November Release on PS5, PS4
It's got a beta on Steam that just started recently, but is there no word of one potentially coming to PS5, @Quintumply?
Either way, I'm really looking forward to this!
Re: Random: Gamescom Opening Night Live Interrupted By Stage-Invading GTA 6 Fan
This kind of thing has always been absolutely boring and unoriginal. They're all basement dwellers with nothing better to do.
Re: Crazy Taxi, Jet Set Radio-Esque PS5 Indie Parcel Corps Continues to Deliver the Goods
This looks like some proper mindless fun. One to keep an eye on!

It won't get gutted like Friday the 13th... yet.
Re: The Last of Us' Neil Druckmann Confirms He's Writing, Directing New PS5 Game
@Backagen I’m sure ‘technically’ it would be.
Re: The Last of Us' Neil Druckmann Confirms He's Writing, Directing New PS5 Game
Probably The Last of Us: Part II: Director’s Cut.
Re: 17 New PS Plus Extra, Premium Games Revealed for Huge Update Next Week
Nothing of interest. Glad I'm dropping back down to Essential later this month.
Re: Lies of P Goes Gold with September PS5, PS4 Launch Looming
This will be my Game of the Year, I reckon.
Re: Battle for Bloodborne PS5 Enters New Phase as Modders Port 60fps Patch to Retail Hardware
Game's amazing the way it is. Quit whinging and go play it.
Re: Hacker Plaguing Overwatch 2 Livestreams Actually People's Hero John Cena
@Enuo Every time I hear John Cena's theme song I'm reminded of that time Paul Heyman was cutting a promo and started singing it on Smackdown. 😂🤣
Re: Red Dead Redemption Out on PS4 This Month, Not a Remaster
Bully is better anyway.

Re: Official Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Reveal Expected Next Week
Haven't been interested in the series since Black Ops II. Zombies mode just hit different back in the day.
Re: The Callisto Protocol Studio Hit with Layoffs
Always a shame when folks lose their jobs. I thought The Callisto Protocol was really good, despite its flaws.
Hopefully these layoffs aren't too much of a setback for those involved.
Re: Alien's Iconic Xenomorph Is Coming to PS5, PS4's Dead by Daylight
I enjoyed Dead By Daylight once upon a time, but the pay-to-win nature of the game caught up to me. Haven't been back since.
Re: Three New PS Plus Essential Games Can Be Downloaded Now on PS5, PS4
@LordAinsley It's a bit tough at places but it's a good game. Some quite amusing dialogue throughout as well.
Re: Best Dreams Games to Play While It's on PS Plus
Don't forget about P.T. (if it's still there!)
Re: Remember Phantom Blade Zero from PS Showcase? There'll Be a 30 Minute PS5 Demo Next Year
This looks bloody awesome, though I'm trying not to get too excited until we actually get more info about it.
Re: PS Plus Premium Adds Four-Hour Trial for One of the Best RPGs Ever Made
Didn't realise they gave Bloodborne a free trial.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 487

Re: Rumour: Tekken 8 Leak Confirms More Returning Characters
@Voltan Admittedly, I haven't played a Tekken game since 4, I think, but Yoshimitsu and Lei Wulong were my two favourite characters to play as. Law was a total beast too.
Re: Rumour: Tekken 8 Leak Confirms More Returning Characters
Yoshimitsuuuuuuuuuuuu! YES!
Re: New Red Dead Redemption Logo Fuels More Remake Rumours
Bully is better and you know it.
Re: Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 Announced, New Characters Revealed in Debut Trailer
No Sheen, no party.
In all seriousness though, this looks like some mindless fun.

Re: Elden Ring Dev's Armored Core 6 Looks Sublime in PS5, PS4 Gameplay Showcase
@Batesy125s Evangelion is so good! A proper classic.
Re: Elden Ring Dev's Armored Core 6 Looks Sublime in PS5, PS4 Gameplay Showcase
This looks fantastic! I can't wait to play it!
Re: Preview: Blue Protocol Might Be the Competition Genshin Impact Needs
Just by looking at the screenshots, this looks more like Tears of the Kingdom than Genshin Impact.
Re: Keep Your Eyes Peeled for a Ton of Armored Core 6 PS5 Gameplay Footage
Excited for this. Have it pre-ordered so I can't wait to get stuck in. Will be tuning into the stream tonight too.
Re: Comical FPS High on Life Really Is Coming to PS5, PS4
Justin Roiland is funny, man. Rick and Morty proves that. I thought Trover Saves The Universe had some rather hilarious dialogue in it as well. Haven't seen much of this game but if it gets added to the PS+ Extra catalogue then I could be tempted.
Re: Site News: Where's Our Remnant 2 PS5 Review?
@LiamCroft Ah, okay. Thanks for clarifying!
Re: Site News: Where's Our Remnant 2 PS5 Review?
Is Simon reviewing this? I've seen him playing it but unsure whether he's reviewing it or not.
Re: Yet Another Live Service Game Is Shutting Down After Just One Year
Hundreds of live-service games will fail before another will be successful. That's just how it goes. It's a shame, of course, but it is what it is.
