Two play throughs of mafia 3 following trophy guides - three trophies that need a full play through two of which need separate ones bugged and not earned. Load of bollocks. 

Final fantasy 7 is free this month on PS plus. Is it any good?

So had the ps5 for a coupe of months now, what have you guys played? Just finished Demons souls, not sure whether just to stick with that and get the platinum or try something else? Already done astro, miles moreles, and weirdly enough bugsnax. 

Still got some aa ps4 games left aswell, but not worth playing them until they are patched 60fps 4k. Think that just leaves Ghost of Tsushima. 

Also anyone getting the annoying notifications about failing to sync saved data?

I wish I get hold of a PS5! I tried the Game drop this week. Logged onto the link within 20 seconds and was in a queue for more than hour which didn’t shift. Eventually sold by the time I got there. Ridiculous. Hard to stock levels picking up before the summer. 

I tried playing Cyperpunk again after deciding to wait until the fixes have been done. Haven’t to say, they seem to have sorted out the issues and made it smoother. However, I just can’t get on with the game. Found it confusing, WAY too many dialogues and overall, it is confusing. 
 

I’ll be trading it in when the shops are back open unfortunately.

I think a few times but I sometimes get update failed on games. I think because unlike my PS4, I don't leave the PS5 in rest mode, could it be that?

I did see yesterday that someone on PS5 wasn't receiving game invites but messages were fine. New console bugs.

I forgot I even had that game. The early bugs I didn't have much problem with but just noy really a fan of the game. No 3rd person put me off. The amount of games where you can swap by a button and they couldn't even manage it, especially after all the hype.

Yeah lack of 3rd person also annoyed me. I’m generally not a fan of 1st person games. The world seemed very complicated and confusing. 
 

They do seem to have cleaned up the game and it does look better overall.

I got really lucky, had mine since mid December, I used an app called hotstock, you get notifications with direct links, but you have to be on your phone at the time, even a minute or so after the notification and its too late. 

Its the scalpers that have ruined it, but companies make it far too easy for them, and people will pay the extortionate prices, I worked in a house this week and they had 2 ps5's for both kids, I joked with them saying how lucky it was to get one, let alone 2, and they told me they bought them from stock x £900 each! Madness.

It’s peoples desperation to have the latest shiny thing too. My brother got a PS5 but he’s played the two games that he wanted to play on it and is back to PS4 games. 
 

I played Miles Morales on it but there’s nothing else out that interests me so I’m happy to wait to get one. 

Haven't quite finished The WItcher 3 yet, soon hopefully.

Also playing Sea of Thieves.,

Did you get the DLC? It’s like getting two whole new games!

There is a 3rd person mod being worked on for the pc version, the character model looks quite funny when moving at the moment though so there is no point using it at the moment.

Been playing the new Outbreak zombies game mode on Black Ops. 

Larger maps and particular objective in each area, once you've done the objective you can warp to the next map where the world become harder.... It's a good twist on the game mode. 

Also played Marquette, the free PS+ game for the month, a relatively short puzzle game but some decent puzzles to figure out. 

Bought Little Nightmares to play as well. It's along the lines of Limbo and Inside.

Also started playing Bloodborne again but that game is almost pure muscle memory at this point and I found myself burning through it pretty quick. 

I’m ALMOST at the end of Oddessy now (wel for me anyway). Got 5 missions left and I’m at level 43. It’s been a blast and really enjoyable. The game feels too big for my liking and I’ll probably stop once I’ve done the final missions. It’s definitely restored my faith in AC games are a dodgy period post Black Flag. 
 

I also picked PGA2k21 as it was on sale for £30. Quite fun playing it. Solid graphics and game play

That is the re-make right? I didn't realise it was free.

Yeah it was remastered quite recently I do believe. 

Downloading now, a nice and small 90GB game size 😧

So addictive. Spent many hours and days playing FM. 

I'm currently playing 'Rise of the tomb raider'.  Enjoying it so much I've just ordered the other recent games in the series.

Horizon Zero Dawn is free next month on PS store. Might replay it - great game. 

Not sure if it's a new thing or not but I have just discovered something called geoguesser I've just had hours of fun with it.

Oh wow, thanks for the update, I’ll definitely download it. An incredible game, time for a re-play!
