Gaming PlayStation 5

Just got an email saying I can finally pick mine up! Too bad I'm working nights this week and my weekend is full of stupid plans.
 
I get what you mean because when I first played Dishonored I went through it as a normal story-driven game. I looked at some videos afterwards and found there were loads of people who'd basically taken the right way to play it as finding the most elaborate method to kill enemies. Like this one mad lad who jumped about 100ft of a building to knife some dude from above. I kind of figured then I'd been playing the game wrong and that the whole meta sandbox was the right way to play it.

I can't remember which part of Dishonored it was, but one of them I basically managed to bypass the entire mission by scaling the outside of the tall building the target was inside, climbing through the relevant window, and ganking him.

Details a bit hazy because it's been absolute yonks since I played it, but it was very satisfying.
 
Anyone played the diablo 2 remake and if so, is it worth a go?

I never played the original but I enjoyed Diablo 3 for a good spell back in the day
 
Still waiting for the psPlus for October. I'm hearing rumors it's MK10. Hope not. It's already free on the PS5.

Im grinding through Demons Souls. Having a love/hate time thus far. Griveances come from the distance you have to traverse everytime you die, particularly in a boss battle, and the short cuts being more like medium cuts. And everthing can be so confusing so making your back to the boss and remembering the correct path can be a challenge unto itself. Defo the hardest Soulsborne to date.

Im nearly finished this now. By far the hardest SoulsBorne game Ive ever played. I was a hairs breath from calling it quits, something Ive never thought of doing with any Souls game, regardless of how difficult I found those games in moments.

Proper love/hate relationship but I grew to adore the game.

Would only recommend for Souls veterans or people with a lot of patience.
 
Yeah, very obvious. Surprised it took them this long to announce it. Great acquisition though.
 




Big bad Sony

That's nice. I recently discovered that one of my favourite actors, Jeremy Davies, voiced and did the motion capture for the bad guy in this series. (Baldur - I assume he's the bad guy? I haven't actually played any of them yet.)
 
Could never get into MGS 3. Never liked the setting. Still, be nice for this to be true.

I only knew that Judge played Kratos when going into this, and had no idea who any of the other actors were going to be. When Baldur showed up it took me about five seconds to think "is this Jeremy Davies from Lost?". That's how brilliant the mo-cap and performances are in that game.
 
Anyone else keep on hitting the PS button while playing FIFA, it quite irritating, through on goal only to accidentally tap the button, maybe it's just me and having to get some grips for the sticks.
