Still a real lack of games out there on the PS5. Gotta be the worst generation of games ever I think. 

I'm Always Playing Smite, Dunno What Keeps Bringing Me Back, Not An Easy Game To Just Pick-up And Go With

Seem to just be waiting for the Call of Duty release every year at the minute. 

Spider-man 2 is the only other one I'm waiting for, usually quite short and you can complete it in a week sadly. 

Picked up Dead Island 2. Decent game, enjoying it so far. One of the things that I like is that it’s “closed maps”. Having a smaller, defined map, actually makes it far more interesting and less copy and paste. Think more games should follow that model. 

Waiting for: Pikmin 4, Super Mario Wonder, Spiderman 2, Assassin's Creed Mirage.

Just finishing up Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, logged 140 hours so far...

I`m waiting to pick this one up, looks like one of the better Zombie killing games, I loved the old Dead Rising games as they didnt take themselves too seriously, was a laugh attacking zombies with anything you could grab.

You sound just like my brother  Get another hobby, go outside, do anything else other than mindlessly game all day every day and it’ll last a bit longer?

So that's starfield installed and ready for me to lose huge amounts of hours to it. 

Just completed Alien Isolation. What an incredible game. Scariest game I've ever played. I was so happy when it ended. Bearing in mind I always played after dark with the lights off to gain maximum immersion. 

Anyone played Dreams? It’s free on PS plus. Some of the creations are great. 

I finished a Stranded Deep, a few trophies to mop up at some point but I essentially got bored. 
 

Looking at a game called The Forest if anyone’s played it?

Got it pre-loaded also, Im not a huge lover of Bethesda games but I've always wanted one of them set in this type of setting.

I'll be happy if i can just play the interstellar score and feel lost in the game.

Social interaction? 

A Short Hike - cool little platform adventure game - available on Xbox amongst others.

Absolutely loving it, seeing people complain because it's "skyrim in space" is hilarious, like that's a negative.

Yup really enjoying it.

Not sure how to play though, a few reviewers have said to go with the main story first then experience new game+ as the game is supposed to open up then.

Ive read that, Ive also read others saying just play it as normal, so do the main story while also doing all the side quests.

Theres so much to do though, its hard to concentrate on the main story. I overheard a conversation yesterday, next thing I`m flying to some weird ship where the power keeps cycling on and off, so floating about one minute, then walking about normally the rest. Fighting off pirates to get some good loot. 

This game sounds like I’d love it. Shame I’m a PS5 peasant. 

So got bored waiting for anything to come out on the PS5 and bought a OLED switch with pokemon violet as i used to love the old pokemon games on the original gameboy.

Only been a couple days and i'll no doubt get bored of it when FIFA/COD/xDefiant comes out, but the nostalgia is great. Pokemon games are such an easy time and the open world update to the series with roaming pokemon really brings it into more modern gaming. 

Might get the new Cyberpunk once Phantom City expansion comes out with it. Played it on PS4 already but I might get it on PS5 and play it again. 

Anyone played Baldurs Gate 3? Loved the original back in the day.

I`ll be getting that, loads of updates on the game along with the DLC which makes it more like the game we were expecting on original release.

Looking forward to that, I finished the game about 6 months ago and loved it. Even with all the bad press and rightly so in some places there was a really good game under the hood of it. Will play another run through with all the changes, the world is one of the best ones I have played in.

Hearing good things about Baldur's Gate 3. Anyone play?

Saw some gameplay of it and its much more Oblivion in space then skyrim. 😂
