I'm trying out WoW retail again since I get Dragonflight for free now that War Within is out.

 

It's really good. I'm impressed. I went ahead and unlocked the Dark Iron Dwarves, and the Mecha Gnomes. Those unlocks were pretty cool little quest chains.

I've decided to go back and knock off something from the backlog so I'm finally playing Tales of Zestiria (PC), I've always been a fan of the Tales series since it's old 2D battle system days, but man, so much backtracking to do, you can really tell where they've padded the game to make it last longer.

Before this I finished Have a Nice Death (PC via Game Pass), nice little rouge like metroidvania.  It's good to have these smaller games between the big 60hr+ ones IMO.

After finishing ToZ, I'm back into the backlog and finally playing The Division.  It's typical ubisoft open world map spam and I really wish you could have a fully offline mode but no.   Another thing that's weird and something you'd think games like this could do, but maybe because of the online shared world nature they can't?  You'd think as you clear more areas and progress the story you'd see a gradual change in the world, with the hostiles being pushed back and things looking a bit better, but nope.   It's still just "frozen in time",  just a shame.   Another quirk is that the damn enemies are bullet sponges, it's kind of annoying.

I have trouble playing more than one game at a time, but this may change when my PS5 Pro arrives as I've purchased Assassins Creed Mirage, Spiderman 2, Hogwarts Legacy, Metro Exodus, Jedi Survivor and Last of US 2(upgrade) in the sales for £85 so it is only right I give them all a good test on the new hardware!

Except of Mirage - which I played in bit over time…

I got involved in other games and played them all continuously until I finished - maybe played some narrative adventures at the same time with little action 

Only one I did not like was TLOU2 and even then I enjoyed at least some of it a lot

 

enjoy your pro. As I have ps5 already no point to upgrade by otherwise I would have loved to play Jedi, Hogwards and Spiderman 2 from scratch on the Pro

I've got a PS5 already and from what I've seen online the Pro should give me alot of improvements as I have the right kind of TV, the only downside to me is the price! But I caved after initially telling myself I have to be crazy to buy this. My thinking is if a PC gamer upgraded their GPU then there is no reason why I can't buy the Pro as I only game on one platform.

Guys, my gaming PC is dead, while I normally play on PS5, I am now travelling and i am looking for great FREE games on Steam to play on my laptop (no dedicated video card)

AMD Ryzen 7 5700U with Radeon Graphics   1.80 GHz   16.0 GB (13.8 GB usable) SSD

ANY ADVICE???

Got HL2 Anniversary and Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog already :)

Ok, this is not exactly what you asked for but its good old school gaming. You will have to install the epic game store and on it is the Castlevania Anniversary Collection for free till the 21st. It has the following games:

Castlevania
Castlevania II Simon's Quest
Castlevania III Dracula's Curse
Super Castlevania IV
Castlevania The Adventure
Castlevania II Belmont's Revenge
Castlevania Bloodlines
Kid Dracula (never released in English before)
History of Castlevania - Book of the Crescent Moon

I am running it on a i5 12th gen with 16 GB ram and Iris XE integrated graphics. The system requirements are VERY  low and installed it. It plays fine. 

You can check with can you run it website.

    • Thanks, Sony and Nintendo, you effectively killed platform-agnostic gaming. Long gone are the days when you could wish to play a specific game on whatever platform you were. Now, you have to buy the hardware just to play that single game. What, you're only interested in THAT game and nothing more? Bad luck, suck it and buy our console.
    • The AI data centers need it more than us so...let them gobble it all up at that price!
    • "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Sega announced it is working on bringing back some of its classic franchises in 2023, and while it has taken some time, the company finally gave fans a look at one of these new projects at the Xbox Games Showcase today, which turned out to be a brand-new Crazy Taxi entry. Watch the debut trailer above, which has snippets of gameplay in between the cinematic bits while blasting a track from The Offspring. Dubbed Crazy Taxi World Tour, this installment is aptly being described as being "CRAZIER than ever!" The director behind the original, Kenji Kanno, is helming this new entry as well, which will come with access to five new cities to drive in, competitive multiplayer modes, a vehicle customization system, and more. Axel is returning as a protagonist as well, but this time a mystery driver is offering him the opportunity to take his adventures to the streets in other countries. This will involve Axel chasing down masked villains that have somehow stolen his taxi, which means even more extreme missions and challenges to overcome. "From transporting passengers at top speed to tackling unique side missions and odd jobs across dynamic maps, there are countless ways to drive crazy and rake in big money," says Sega about this new installment after over 20 years. "Perform outrageous drifts, catch insane air, and drive at crazy speeds across five different cities as you work to deliver passengers and complete a variety of missions and challenges." The studio has even confirmed an in-game Arcade Mode that players will be able to access containing the original games for plenty of nostalgic action. Crazy Taxi: World Tour is currently slated to release sometime in 2027 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.
    • This and Crazy Taxi are the two games that interested me the most from this showcase.
    • Good, because the nonstop chattering from the voices in her head made me quit the second game.
