What are you playing at the moment?

First topic message reminder :

Nice new thread to start!

I'm on Mass Effect Andromeda for the time being. Think the negative press is way overblown, I'm really enjoying it so far.

i started this but hit a glitch that wont let me carry on past the first assault. read that i can either wait for a patch or start again. cant be arsed starting again as even though i hadnt progressed far in the story i have leveled my character up by doing all the boring bits like finding all the artifacts etc

by President Trump Mon 26 Feb 2018, 09:41

Yeah it's bit of a grind at times finding the artefacts and memories etc but you should give it another go as the story is pretty good if you are a LotR fan

by compelling and rich Mon 26 Feb 2018, 09:45

im hoping they sort the glitch out so i can resume my save file

by President Trump Mon 26 Feb 2018, 10:30

There has been 2 updates since I've bought it so give it a try

by **Pr4wn** Mon 26 Feb 2018, 13:59

I completed it without any issues.

by compelling and rich Tue 27 Feb 2018, 18:57

went back onto it and seems like they have fixed it

Bloodborne is one of the free games this month on psn. Doesn't come with the DLC but not a bad offering from Sony.

by **rIck_dAgless** Wed 07 Mar 2018, 12:21

And the new Ratchett and Clank, so that is both me and the missus catered for.

You on Ratchett and Clank then?

by **rIck_dAgless** Wed 07 Mar 2018, 12:52

Damn straight, Bloodborne is scary and difficult.

by Samo Wed 07 Mar 2018, 19:22

Cant recommend Ratchet and Clank highly enough. Been a fan of the series since the first game. Got Bloodborne downloading just now.

Only got the bonus episode of Hitman to finish while it downloads

by gazzyD Tue 20 Mar 2018, 18:24

Just finished assassins creed origins, including the DLC. Probably put 120 hours in to it

The year off done them the world of good as this is a proper return to form for the series

by compelling and rich Tue 03 Apr 2018, 19:57

finished main story line of shadow of war and all the side quests. is there much point carrying on afterwards?

i have got kingdom come deliverance to start

by Guest Thu 03 May 2018, 15:13

Skyrim on the Switch and it looks stunning on the small screen.

Tried it on the PS4 last year and couldn't get into it but this version has me hooked and it's smooth as hell.

by **Galted** Thu 03 May 2018, 17:09

Far Cry Primal. Having recently p*ssed off the missus by buying a PS4 I'd been struggling to find anything to get stuck into until this. Haven't played an open world game apart from a couple of hours of Witcher and about 20 minutes of the first FC but this has blown my mind. Had no idea it would be so gigantic or gripping, have played just over 40 hours and have only completed about 38%. The attention to detail is ridiculously good, as are the graphics. Has brought new meaning to my life shooting a mammoth in the face and finding the same animal a while later with the arrow still hanging out of it. And there are few things as rewarding as sneaking up on a couple of shagging neanderthals and slitting their throats.

In the small gaps i get to play on the PS4 between my boy playing Fortnite - i recently bought Drunk'n Bar Fight on PSVR - only a tenner, but worth every penny. A good laugh, throwing pool balls at people, and stabbing them in the hand with darts - perfect for someone who is not into pub fights in the real world!

by **Pr4wn** Tue 15 May 2018, 15:53

Anyone else playing God of War on PS4? Unbelievable game!

by Guest Tue 15 May 2018, 23:52

Thinking of getting that soon, Pr4wn.

Heard nothing but good things about it.

by **rIck_dAgless** Wed 16 May 2018, 07:05

Yeah, me too, though the fact that Detroit Become Human is out is putting me off getting it ATM...

by **Pr4wn** Wed 16 May 2018, 13:57

Honestly, it's unreal. Huge world to explore. Fantastic, challenging combat. Great story to go with it too.

by **rIck_dAgless** Wed 16 May 2018, 14:05

I believe you, everyone who is playing it is saying the same thing, I have just done Far Cry 5 so may well just go and get it.

by Guest Wed 16 May 2018, 14:09

Sony's exclusives are pretty much always bang on the money.

I'm sold!

by ChequeredJersey Wed 16 May 2018, 21:15

Well, some of them are. God of War is immense though

Red Dead Redemption 2 mere months away...

Played this a few months back. Absolute quality. One of the best open world games I have played.

Will you be aiming for 100% completion? I generally don't stick around long after I have completed the main story lines in these types of games.

Probably won't go for 100% as the caves do my head in, complete them only where necessary. I will however spend many unnecessary hours roaming around Oros looking for trespassers.

I hope that Shah doesn't frequent this thread as I'm sure he would claim that everyone in my Arris is welcome.

Just got Skyrim for PS4. Fully expecting to lose a substantial portion of my life over the next few weeks!

by compelling and rich Mon 04 Jun 2018, 09:59

download assassins creed syndicate when it was on gold recently. was late coming into these and the only two ive played properly is this one and the pirates one. easy enjoyable game that you can do a quick half hour here and there. does get a tad repetitive but ive enjoyed it so far

by compelling and rich Mon 04 Jun 2018, 10:00

complete opposite of skyrim lfc91 Laugh

by **rIck_dAgless** Mon 04 Jun 2018, 10:03

Super Mario Odyssey, what a great game.

by lfc91 Mon 04 Jun 2018, 10:09

I've played the majority of the Assassins Creed games. Think the pirate one has been my favorite so far. I generally wait a year or so before getting them though so haven't got Origins yet which seems to be seen as one of the best from what I've read!

Played Skyrim for an hour last night and probably progressed about 0.01%..

nothing wrong with spending a couple hours of your life crafting iron ingots Laugh

by lfc91 Mon 04 Jun 2018, 10:30

I'm glad someone agrees with me! Been informed by my GF that I am far to old to be playing a playstation.... Tempted to tell her my playstation was there long before she was, and would be there after she was gone...(Clearly im not brave enough to do that, but I was tempted....)

by compelling and rich Mon 04 Jun 2018, 10:51

well i've got 6 years on you and still going, albeit not as much as i used to. helps working shifts where i can play in peace when the mrs is in bed/at work

by lfc91 Mon 04 Jun 2018, 11:07

Good to know, at least 6 more years for me then Cool

Well that's the key for me aswell. My job has flexible working hours and she is a teacher who will be in relatively late most nights. So i generally try to get my fill before she gets home, avoid all the judgement!

If you're referring to Black Flag that's going to be my next waste of a few months, looks very impressive. Glad I jumped on the PS bandwagon a few decades late as I have plenty to catch up on.

by **Pr4wn** Mon 04 Jun 2018, 15:58

I'm just finishing up God of War, then on to Dark Souls Remastered!

by Guest Tue 05 Jun 2018, 21:46

I'd never played an Assassins Creed game until I tried Black Flag and I just couldn't enjoy it. The overall controls and combat put me off it. I've been told that if you've played one AC then you've played them all which is a shame because AC Syndicate looks gorgeous. Different strokes for different folks I suppose.

by **Galted** Tue 05 Jun 2018, 22:31

Got carried away buying Black Flag and bought the bundle including Syndicate and Unity as well. Started playing Syndicate but don't really know what I'm doing, taking me a while to get used to the controls. Hope I pick it up soon before I launch the controller through the TV.

by Guest Tue 05 Jun 2018, 22:52

A bit of game rage never hurt anyone, Galt. I've nearly burst into tears plenty of times and if someone tells you to clam down "it's only a game' then you have my permission to kill.

by lfc91 Wed 06 Jun 2018, 07:25

Syndicate was quite good. Liked the introduction of the Boroughs, getting to take over them by Gangwarfare, kidnap and assassinations.

There is a new game coming out from Ubisoft' Skull & Bones, that is basically just Black flag with no land portion, all pirates.(I'm guessing there will be a lot more to the Pirate stuff than there was in Black Flag).

by **Pr4wn** Wed 06 Jun 2018, 14:20

For any PS4 users, XCOM2 is free this month, supposed to be a fantastic game.

by GSC Wed 06 Jun 2018, 15:00

It is, but if you plan on playing a hard difficulty, well worth watching some guides before hand. That game is brutal

by President Trump Mon 11 Jun 2018, 09:53

I just started Detroit: Become Human, its amazing, if you like David Cage's other games (Heavy Rain, Beyond two souls) its a must and the graphic are just beautiful

by Samo Tue 12 Jun 2018, 04:14

Still battering my way through God of War. Game of the Year for me so far.

by President Trump Tue 12 Jun 2018, 10:55

Anyone excited about any of the games announced at E3
