Just finished DA Veilguard ..loved it, despite some ropey dialogue
Gotta help with shopping and pre Xmas stuff or the wife will be in a rage if I just play STALKER 2 all weekend but will sneak in some late night sessions of WOW The War Within which is outstanding.
Looking forward to some new Christmas games in Indiana Jones and Helldivers 2 - just hoping i haven't missed the boat on that !
We bought my daughter Astrobot for Xmas so I'll be stealing that when she's not looking 🤣🤣
Merry Christmas to you and all your families guys and gals ❤️🎅

STALKER 2 on XBX....a serious GOTY contender for me. An old school, hardcore PC style shooter. It's unbelievably immersive. God knows how Pure Xbox gave it a 4/10 !!??
Will do another run on another XBX GOTY, the gobsmacking Hellblade 2 ....i hope this comes to PS5 for the non Xbox-ers. It's superb.
I really want to play Indiana Jones but the Mrs has bought me it for Xmas so I can't aarrgghh. Not a popular opinion here but Xbox has had a great year with the above games along with MS Flight Simulator.
Also trying to Plat the amazing DA Veilguard on PS5. Loving the Game whilst tolerating some bad dialogue but overall it's fantastic!
Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️

Heavily into WoW The War Within on PC. This is outstanding, the best WoW expansion since Legion. The new changes such as soloable delves and dungeons is a game changer.
Loving Black Ops 6 too, by far the best CoD in years- fantastic campaign and the multiplayer is as peerless as ever, as long as you ignore the ridiculous skins !
Will continue with the excellent DOA The Veilguard - not far off fully completing it now I think, here's to the Plat popping soon I hope !
I'll also find a bit of time for Diablo 4 Veil of Hatred which is again another stunning expansion. I'll get hated for saying this but ActiBlizz having a good year with the quality of their output
Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️

Re: Indiana Jones PS5 'By Far' Machine Games' Biggest Undertaking

@Lavishturtle .....the games not even out yet !!??
How on earth can you call it crap, you have no idea. Just because it's 1st person doesn't make it a bad game. So are the Uncharted or Tomb Raider crap because they're only in 3rd person? Jeez man, play the game then you can have a relevant opinion

Really want to buy a PS5 Pro but my Mrs says she'll divorce me and take the kids.....rushes off to buy PS5 Pro....
Otherwise playing STALKER 2 on XBX. This is a seriously hardcore survival shooter that a lot of reviews don't seem to get ( Pure Xbox) ...yes it needs work but it's so immersive!
Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️

Loving Black Ops 6 on GP...the multiplayer really is peerless, with a great array of new maps. Fantastic campaign too
Also, I'm around 16 hrs in on DA Veilguard and it's really starting to.open up with new skills and areas. Absolutely loving it - but I understand the criticisms of its character art style.
Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️

Dragon Age Veilguard and only this. About 4 hrs in so far and enjoying it immensely. Superb graphics and I'm playing as an Elf Rogue and the combat is snappy and visceral. Yes I do have a few reservations about the character models and the dialogue is a bit stilted and doesn't quite fit, but overall I'm loving it.
I'll probably do more MMOing with WoW The War Within so by Monday I'll be all fantasy world elved out lol
Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️

@Ilyn yeah I'm trying to resist the lure of Classic WoW but I know I'll cave at some point.
But the general consensus is is the TWW expansion is more solo friendly with bots for groups, solo delves etc, but I'm not that far in as yet. I played for 10 yrs from launch day back in '04, believe me that was much more hardcore. Nowadays I think it's as life sapping and hardcore as you want it to be
Enjoy !
