I thought it was better, more tactics for distraction etc and if it came down to it combat wasn't necessarily game over!

Just completed it, I thought it had great voice and character acting and thought the graphics and sound to be great on PS5 in performance mode on my VRR TV, just need to go into chapter select and finish up the trophies, hopefully it won't be too much of a pain in the ass!

I finished Jedi Survivor a few days ago.  Started up Hellblade 2 last night but haven't gotten too far yet, needed to get some sleep.  Once that's done I'll have to make time for some other games on my backlog probably.

I started Hallblade 2 yesterday as well, gorgeous game, although feels more like a tech demo for UE5 than a proper game, very much one path you're shoved down, apparently it's only around 6 hours to complete as well so I'm probably a quarter of the way through already!

It's pretty linear but there's stuff hidden around that you can find.  I've already missed a few so I'll have to play it over if I want to collect all of them.   It's not your open world fluff we keep getting now.  Not every game needs to be that though.  I'm here for a tight narrative single player experience more often.

It did get better as it went on, although I found the ending somewhat disappointing. Onto Ghost of Tsushima next I think!

This game is bloody awesome, I can't pull myself away from it, only stopped as I needed sleep or work!

Dave the Diver is now Platinumed, what a relaxing fantastic game that is part of PS+ Extra subscription, so no money spent again!

Elden Ring. I started playing it coincidentally close to when the DLC got released without any prior knowledge to it.

I also played Monster Hunter: World when the DLC came out lol. Now I'm 3 characters in and just waiting for Wilds to drop while doing some late game farming.

Once Human. Considering that it's free it's pretty fun, although myself and a friend have absolutely no idea what the story is about.

Aside from that, I'm continuing with Fallout 4. Fallout: London released yesterday so I'm looking forward to playing that, but since it looks like you need to remove the next-gen update I'll wait until I've finished 4's story.

Have only just discovered Once Human and absolutely loving it - Only ten hours in so far and not a single bug yet and for a free game they've done a damn good job!

Just made my first assault rifle and motorbike and just cannot get enough of exploring the map and the random encounters

Yeah, we're still having a blast when we get time to play. I think the devs have also said that they are going to make it so that you can transfer your character to another server, so if they implement that we'll be jumping over to a PVP server that another friend of mine is playing on.

    • Let's goooooooo! I've been loving the entries so far! I still have to finish Rebirth (things have been busy!)! Excited for this next installment.
    • "Revelation?" I was hoping for this episode to be called "Reunion". Oh, well... In a related note, the Final Fantasy VII compilation has received an EC entry, short for Ever Crisis. For those who don't know, it already had AC, BC, CC, and DC entries, short for Advent Children, Before Crisis, Crisis Core, and Dirge of Cerberus. I hope it doesn't get an FC entry becaude that would be a freakin' crisis.
    • Uh, after intense testing now, 'Samsung Browser' is not the best one outside of 'Microsoft Edge' after all. Opera Air is that. It has "some" bloat, but it's far less than what both Microsoft Edge and Brave browser have.
    • Weekend PC Game Deals: Resident Evil, Mafia, Like a Dragon, and more by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Weekend PC Game Deals is where the hottest gaming deals from all over the internet are gathered into one place every week for your consumption. So kick back, relax, and hold on to your wallets. The Epic concluded its mystery giveaways this week with another double freebie promotion.

Songs of Conquest is a turn-based 4X strategy game where you'll be managing a kingdom, making tough decisions, and taking down enemy forces in tactical combat.

The $15 bundle gives you all eight games from this month's Choice selection. The month-long promotion will come to an end on July 6, giving you ample time to decide on whether you want the titles. The Humble Store also brought in standard gaming collections this week. The IGN Live Bundle kicked things off with games like Control, Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew, Blair Witch, Rollerdrome, and The Last Campfire for $10. At the same time, the We Will Always be Here bundle carried in titles like Bad End Theater, Thirsty Suitors, Vampire Therapist, and Tavern Talk for $12.
