  1. I would have to say Payback is my No.1! I also like Subsonic, Babylon & Skyline. The new map Hideout is ok so far and can see it growing on me. I’m undecided on Extraction …
  2. Wow that’s an impressive collection!! I agree they need to improve the online battling and I’m sure they will get it right eventually! Packed this Charizard yesterday!
  3. I am loving this game! Both the collecting and battling is a lot of fun! I wish there were better rewards for winning battles, 15xp is just not enough! I also think there is a massive advantage for going second in battling which is very strange! Thought I would share some of my best shinys so far!
  4. A new mobile Pokemon game based on the trading cards. You collect Pokemon cards and battle them against other people (or solo matches against AI). It’s like Marvel Snap but for Pokemon. I’ve been playing it today and have to say it’s a lot of fun and quite addicting! If anyone else is playing or is going to play add me on there, my code is: 7375646786471039 I still hate the Nintendo friend code system!
  5. I actually really enjoyed the campaign on this COD! I thought quite a few of the levels were brilliant!
  6. I usually like to try and stay positive … but this seems like a really bad month.
  7. Of course! Although I’m still undecided if I should try and get the kids to support them or not as I don’t think they deserve to go through the constant disappointments and heartbreak year after year 🤣 Although maybe that builds character? 🤔
  8. I only have the controllers and headset that I bought at launch with the PS5! I’ve been looking recently at purchasing a ‘pro’ controller, however I’m not willing to spend hundreds so I’m looking for a budget one. I’ve been looking at the 8bitdo Ultimate controller, it’s only £55 and appears to have the Hall effect sticks, back buttons etc. However it seems to only be for Xbox so I’d be stuck with the standard controller for PS5! So long story short is no I haven’t got any PS5 accessories but would love some recommendations for cheap pro controllers 🤣
  9. Is this the same as the club games? I remember I had the Arsenal game and absolutely loved it when I was younger!
  10. I’ve been fully digital since around 2019, so haven’t had a physical bargain in a while and can’t recall any major ones off the top of my head! The odd bargain from the PS store sales but not worth writing about!
  11. I’ve played 16 matches and I’m roughly half way through the campaign, and I’m having a great time! 1 big caveat; I have taken a long break from COD. I didn’t play Vanguard, Cold War, or MW2 at all, and only played about 30 mins of MW3 when it came to game pass. I didn’t want to buy these games anymore, and I’m only playing BO6 due to it being on game pass! So there’s a good chance that the reason I’m enjoying it so much is that I’ve taken such a long break! Need to play more matches to determine which maps and weapons I do or don’t like, but for now I’m just enjoying my time with it!
  12. Thanks @Luseth, are you happy for me to read these points out on the podcast? I have to say I agree with most of what you said, particularly the stealth. Your point about planets having a theme is interesting too and never really thought of it that way. It makes sense for a platformer like Mario or Astro Bot to have themed levels, but when it comes to large scale planets they should have some variety in environments. I guess the counter argument to that is that not many planets are going to have the same conditions as Earth, due to distances from their Sun etc. I 100% agree about the filler though, I know people like their games to be huge 100 hour experiences so they feel they have got their moneys worth, however I prefer a much tighter experience!
  13. Beat this game last night, bought a month of Ubisoft+ so I could play it on the cheap. Basically only completed the main missions and did very little side stuff. Took me 15 hours. In my opinion, it’s a good game. I had my fun with it but certainly wouldn’t consider it one of the greats, and I much prefer the Jedi games! Once I had accepted that this is basically a stealth game I found it more enjoyable. That being said, there are plenty of better stealth games out there!! I’m going to be reviewing it on my podcast this week and wanted to know if anyone else had beaten it yet and would be willing to share their thoughts so I can share them on the podcast? If you’d rather me not mention your username just let me know!
  14. Not me - I’ve never been interested in MMOs, and now more than ever I don’t have the time that is required to invest into them! I’d say I probably get on average about 10 hours a week of gaming on my home console (I can play a lot of Marvel snap on my phone). If I got really into an MMO, I’d never be able to play any other games! Interested in your thoughts on this one though, being another attempt my Amazon to get into the video games space. Do you think it has staying power? Or one that will be forgotten in a year or two?
  15. Super excited for this! Loved the first game and actually went through and watched all the films this year! A day one purchase for me!
  16. All really great choices so far! In the interest of not picking the same games (I would have picked The Last of Us) I am going to pick the following: - God of War (2018) - Resident Evil 7 - Zelda Breath of the Wild - Uncharted 2 - Portal (1&2 - is that cheating 🤣) Picking just one of the portal games is hard! The first game is so iconic and brilliant, but the second game is definitely better!
  17. I’m definitely up for this! I think there should be some rules, such as one game per franchise! It’s almost time for me to set up our game of the year poll again …
  18. Personally, I would say the next 12/18 months is looking pretty exciting! For me I’m looking forward to playing the following (roughly in order of release): - Black Ops 6 (game pass) - Fear the Spotlight - Stalker 2 (game pass) - Indiana Jones (game pass) - Marvel Rivals - Assassins Creed Shadows - Avowed (game pass) - Ghost of Yotei - Fable (game pass) - GTA 6 - Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra - South of Midnight (Game Pass) - Splitgate 2 These are just the ones we know about, I’m sure there will be some good surprises too (who would have guessed Helldivers 2 would have been that good!) I’m sure the games I listed won’t all be as good as I’m hoping, but I’m definitely excited for them and there’s nothing wrong with that!
  19. I’ll be playing this through game pass too! Happy to squad up with anyone who picks this up, and with cross play that includes anyone on PS too!
  20. I agree - I couldn’t care less if the protagonist is male or female! I’m just shocked they created a great character in Jin Sakai and then decide to go 300 years into the future and leave him behind! I’m very interested in what they’re going to do with the story, and this is now my second most anticipated game for next year, behind GTA 6 of course!
  21. I mean my main hobby is video games hence being here 🤣 Other hobbies - I enjoy podcasting now, which gives me an outlet to talk all things video games! I watch a lot of football (haven’t played in a very long time), and like to keep up with the Basketball when I can! Maybe I should take up another hobby 🤣! Having kids means it’s hard to find the time for 1 hobby let alone more!
  22. A little late to the thread but wanted to reply anyway! Have recently beaten both The Plucky Squire and Astro Bot - the latter being an incredible experience! I’m now playing Star Wars Outlaws (about 7 hours in), and also slowly working on the Astro Bot platinum 👍🏻
  23. So excited for Ghost of Yotei!! I loved Tsushima so I’m pumped we’re getting another game in the series! A little surprised they have decided to not continue with Jin Sakai … but I trust they know what they’re doing!
  24. I had no idea there was a retro game called England International Football and assumed you were on here to moan about the performance against Greece the other night 🤣
  25. I hope this is the right place to put this … I have started a podcast - The Late Night Gamer Podcast 🎙️🎮🎧 This will be a podcast where I discuss the latest video games news, reviews and previews! The first episode of the podcast is now available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music and Pocket Casts! Spotify: Apple Podcasts: ‎The Late Night Gamer Podcast on Apple Podcasts PODCASTS.APPLE.COM ‎Leisure · 2024 The plan is for this to be a weekly podcast with episodes lasting between 30-40 minutes each! It would mean the world to me if you could give the first episode a listen and if you enjoy the podcast then please do follow or subscribe on your service of choice and of course send me any feedback you may have or send me questions you would want me to answer in a future episode! I plan on having guests in future episodes and would love to have FG members come through and chat all things video games! 👍🏻 Thanks in advance for listening and I hope you enjoy 💙
