Gamewise and costwise, its actually a really good month for PS Plus games. Evil Dead i'm looking forward to as its been a great co-op game i've dipped in and watched a few times when other people play it. Mafia is a classic remake and worth having in the collection. Destiny 2's Beyond Light Campaign and additional quests are a sizeable addition to someone who wants to give it a go but needs more than the free stuff to play it (plus the BEST raid in the game imo 😄). No idea about Olli Olli World...but its free now 😄

I've been recently reconciling my PS1 games as I did have quite a few naughty copied discs back in the day (hey, not my fault my parents clearly didn't want me to have the proper ones!) so I thought it was time to fix that. There's a few new ones below though as a few half decent deals came up with the game I needed so picked them up at the same time. Looking forward to trying out all teh football games later in the year and hopefully with others here face to face when I've sorted my space out. Fun useless fact. I could never beat Tenchu properly as it was rock hard when I was young. Couldn't even get past the first level boss! I ended up using the infinite health cheat to help me complete it instead. I'll go back soon to see if my skills have actually done anything in the past 25 years 😅

Wowser 🤣🤣 I do also love the idea in real life that soon we'll get these types of players through the ranks at Bolton. "Scholes to Giggs who crosses for Harry!" 🤣 I'm looking forward to starting a co-op game when @Findmartin comes round next time. I'll also start a single player one this week with Blackburn. Going to find Ian Moore at Stockport and offer him a luctrative contract for 12 years in exchange for 100 goals per season 😎

Respawn announced they’ll be seating this one until April. I’m glad to see them taking the extra time to make this one more polished and not hopefully tire out the people working on it in the process.

I can't wait to come round and play this buddy! Those images for the backgrounds 😍 I agree with what you've said, the later games just ddidn't quite do it for me as there were too many things to tinker with.

Stealing thread idea from another forum, and I'm unsure if we have or had one of these. We often times change up the games we are playing. So what games are you playing now? I'm in a war phase, so I downloaded Battlefield 1. I forgot how much fun this game is, hectic gameplay and lots of action. I only run as medic and I most of the time end up topping stats for most revives in a round. Gotta keep pushing somehow! If we have one of these that I've missed, delete or merge this thread.

Has anyone played this? It's scary stuff on your own with the lights off and headset on full 🤣 You can hunt ghosts in groups too, if anybody has it I think it might be a good game to have a laugh on. Thought I would throw it out there 🙂

Out in a couple of weeks and looks pretty interesting. Quite like the look of the mechanics with its mix of melee and gun plus the overall fluidity. The game is also reminiscent of many classics we used to get in the PS2/OG Xbox era. Way more appealing than these generic/safe titles that have come out in recent years with bland cover elements or The Division-type basic shooting.

Sony has sent out emails to PS Plus users and have informed them that they will be bringing an end to the PS Plus collection May 9th. If you haven't claimed any of the games, I suggest you do so now, and they'll be a part of your game library as long as you have a PS Plus account. Fucking Sony. I'm honestly surprised they didn't do this when they implemented the PS+ tiers.

The remade Mafia makes my PC turn into a furnace for some reason, so I'd like to see how it is on console so I can finish it 🙂

Got these bad boys today!

Rather have that than watch bloody Spurs right now😎

I think most people thought it was a fake game at first especially when we saw no original gameplay footage for a very long period and the devs were silent for months upon months at a time. However it looks like they've done a very good job overall with a truly unique setting and not only that, this is a rare game that actually seems to represent the gameplay trailers we've seen previous.

Conte is out for the foseeable future and we're playing against a sovereign wealth fund on Sunday, so that will be fun. Hope the gaffer is OK, having your gall bladder removed sounds pretty hardcore 😥

It's on Xbox GamePass so I'll more than likely check it out. When I first became aware of this game i thought it was riffing off (nor ripping) Stalker but now I can't remember so will check the video above, cheers👍

A nice line up there Lee, think I've played them all aside from the Brian Lara Cricket. I have no interest in Cricket. My favourites from that pile would be. Tenchu Destruction Derby The Tomb Raiders Pandemonium

Can't blame them - the amount of work EA have allocated them is absolutely nuts. Pity every other EA studio is hot garbage. They are working on this, another couple of upcoming Star Wars titles and still supporting Apex Legends massively and trying to salvage Battlefield 2042. The first one was decent and this one should be equally good!

It is. It's really good haha

I've been really enjoying switch games lately, especially Death's Door, which I got for Christmas! Great game!

I always used to play medic too! Got so many points not shooting a single person 😂

That sounds like a good idea, I just need to find an evening I can sacrifice now 😂 seem to be doing something every night which is really getting in the way of my valuable gaming time 😂

set yourself aside an evening a week as retro game night 🙂 one of the best thing I started doing and even get the little un to have a go sometime ^_^

Personal experiences - cex is fine if you go in store, buying online can be very hit and miss with quality Ebay can be good if you know exactly what you are after but priced a little high Charity shops are much more difficult to find a bargain these days, a lot of them have cottoned onto the value and put them on ebay these days My best experiences have been smaller independant stores and retro game fayres. There are 2 or 3 local to me and they have recently been revamped so they tend to be my first port of call.

No show for all the big names Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo give E3 the brush off | PC Gamer WWW.PCGAMER.COM Gaming's biggest publishers aren't coming back for E3's first in-person event since 2019. No doubt they'd rather run their own events which gives them a lot more control and they don't have to share the space with rivals. Pity because it was a nice tradition but hopefully this will see more independent devs and smaller publishers have the spotlight instead of the usual suspects paying for it.

Try www.consolemad.co.uk Website I passed to @GazzaGarratt Very reliable, also check charity shops constantly mate, always selling some awesome bargains 👌

Have a look at local ads on places like Gumtree, oftentimes something decent shows up when they don't know exactly what they're selling or it's true worth. I don't have the room to collect but once I do, I'll be picking up some things here and then.

I put this on my PPR but I thought I'd post it here as well. I manage to pick up, The Simpsons Hit and Run, Need for Speed Most Wanted, Sonic Heroes and Star Wars Battlefront 2 all for Playstation 2. I also then received a few other beauties including SSX and PES from @GazzaGarrattwhich I was extremely happy about. I've yet had the time to properly play any of them but I am very excited for when that moment does come around!

Totally agree, I feel I knew some more than I did and just went the wrong answers.

I seen that @J4MES OX4Dlaughed my ass off too.

I'm downloading it now. The last Grid game had pretty decent driving mechanics except for the fact AI cars always came out better in collisions, even when they had no right to 🙃

Tough but good quiz, got a couple wrong I should have known, but really great questions. Nice one @Findmartin 🖤

DMZ Has given me so many memorable epic gamer moments in the 6 weeks that I have been playing it. Let’s here your stories too. As someone here said previously in DMZ the journey is often more important than the extraction or the reward. I’ll start with my first special moment which was extracting the M13B, I had been trying for a little while to extract the m13b I had downed the Chemist a couple of times but had never managed to get away with the gun. It was Christmas Eve and I was planning on having one more go! I’ve copied the story from the other thread so you may have heard this one before though it would be nice to have a single space for DMZ stories I did a setup run extracted a self revive, medium backpack, durable gas mask, and 2 plate vest, I then spawned in with the MCPR-300 (Body Count Blueprint with the 5 round mag removed (for a 10 mag) and a Kastov 74u then went straight for the Radiation Zone, got a message right away saying the chemist was in the area, sometimes I've had to run around the outside of the area to get that message. then took the high ground and was able to take some enemies out one by one, then I ventured into the gas and started collecting gas masks, plates and stims, it took around 20 minutes but I didn't really get any large clusters of enemies like I have on previous attempts so I was able to take them down successfully. I found the chemist a couple of times, got a headshot on the first and destroyed his helmet, finally I found him close by a building looking in the opposite direction and was able to finish him off with the 74u, there wasn't really any other enemies nearby so I grabbed the m13b and legged it to my vehicle, found a sensible extraction a little while away the radiation was about to start expanding and I didn't want to take any chances. I did get downed at the extraction but was fortunate to still have the self revive.

It reminds me I need to go and give Metal Gear Rising Revengance some time, as I have it, but barely played it.

I'd love to refute that, unfortunately you're correct 😭😅

That's a shocking thing to admit. Everyone and their grandma had Brian Lara Cricket in their PS1 library🤣 I even had two copies just in case I misplaced one.

Out in 3 weeks

I bought a Pokemon Yellow GBC from them with a great experience. Here's my thing on the social media shit, these are collectors' items and with eBay you run the risk of getting fakes. The pieces I have gotten from them are in good condition and working well.

Indeed, although my aim is horrible anyway, rarely I'll go over 10 kills in a round, double the deaths but still end up within the top 10 players. So works out for me. 😅

So I think it'd max teams of 4 then you can go into different houses and different levels and need to pinpoint what kind of ghost you think it is by using different equipment. Then there's bonus tasks to get more money for buying equipment where you have to get close or have a chase with a ghost but don't let it kill you lol. When your playing as a group if you die you leave the chat aswell so getting left on your own gets the nerves going haha

I'm pretty sure Sam @Capn_Underpants has played this A LOT. If its got a good co-op then I could be persuaded @G_dub52... whats the max players and is it like you have different levels to find different ghosts?

It's a great game! 4 had seasons where the map in winter is covered in snow and the lakes freeze over etc

I've recently bought Forza 5 and it's my first outing on a Forza game but I have to say it's great fun. There is a seasons events type thingy now too so maybe that's new. It's JDM starting from Feb. Some great cars and a fucking shit ton of stuff to do which is keeping me entertained 🙂

Nice! I find the SMG's really good and a lot of fun. The mobility is always great. I actually quite liked the FTAC.

VEL and Lachmann Sub is gold. FTAC sucks. That is all.

So I'm 100% in favour of the wipe I think its a good thing providing that you get new missions at the same time. I'm indifferent about whether we keep the insured slots I could go either way on that one, but I don't like the argument put forward that DMZ should wipe because Tarkov does, just because Tarkov does it doesn't mean that DMZ should do it too.
