Quantum Break - just finished today. Wow what a well told story! Really great game. Remedy rocks!
Wo Long - Up to Chapter 5. Really enjoying the game though maybe it’s getting a bit long in the tooth. Recycled enemies is getting a little old too. Once Ive finished this I’m moving onto Bloodborne which has been in my pile
Of shame for years. Only in the past year I’ve developed a huge appreciation for Soul like games.
RE4R - what’s to say. It’s brilliant.

Just beat Fire Emblem Engage after 90+ hours.
Hard/Classic, All Paralogues, Zero Deaths.
It was fine.
I got a 15% off eShop voucher from Nintendo for my birthday and Zelda releases in what, 9 days? More than likely going to get that.
In the meantime, I will either finish Nier Automata again or Metroid Prime Remastered.

Got this today from Boomerang Rentals. One of those games that I've been vaguely interested in but would never really buy unless it's dirt cheap in a sale. Anyway, it's pretty fun after three hours. There's nothing special about any aspect of the game nor is there anything bad. It's just a solid and fun RPG.
Ghostwire Tokyo
I've been playing this on and off since receiving it as a birthday gift last August. Just got to chapter 4. The combat is decent but it's the world that keeps bringing me back. I really like the design, the shops, and the size of the map. Can sometimes feel a little overwhelming due to the sheer amount of stuff to collect, plus there's quite a few side missions to tackle.
Breath of Fire 3
Just beat McNeil and had the first encounter with Balio and Sunder.

Soon finished with Final Fantasy 6 pixel remaster. Only got Locke and Terra left to collect in World of Ruin before heading to Kefkas Tower to beat the shit out of him. It's been a great revisit, a solid remaster through and through. Although I think World of Ruin, and the non linear approach to the story, is pretty weak compared to World of Balance. Still, FF 6 is definitely one of the great Final Fantasy -games. But it's nothing compared to what Square did on the PS1 with the franchise.
I've also jumped back into Arkham Origins. I was about 1/5th through the story before I put it down. The game is good but I can't stand the Dualshock 3 so I waited until I could get my hands on a proper controller. Bought the retro fighters defender (also works with PS1 and 2) and now it feels much better. It was expensive as fuck but I hope it's worth it. I need to thoroughly use it for a couple of months before I can decide if it's a dud or a homerun. So far so good.

I recently "completed" Kakarot for good (all DLCs, all achievements, and all entries in the Z-encyclopedia) so I'm playing around with mods a bit. I have one that adds a lot of transformations and special moves for all the playable characters (UI Goku, Beast Gohan, Orange Piccolo...), unfortunately all the stuff it adds for Vegito and Gotenks is currently un-usable as there's no mod that can make them playable directly (as in, not though transformations during combat only) in the latest version of the game. UI Vegito would have been fun, oh well...

To pay respect to what Arkane once was, i am replaying Prey 2017 for the nth time. Absolute masterpiece of immersive interactive storytelling.
Also Red Dead Redemption 2 on the side.

It was a freebie on Epic sometime ago. It was ok. Story was too typical example of the genre storytelling: if you can't come up with anything interesting, just put aliens or ancient highly advanced civilizations into it. Insert puzzles.
Puzzles were mostly fine except how they started repeating. But nothing on the level of The Witness - which also had a silly story. Whatever it was.

Combat gets a better further in once you’ve unlocked things. Stick with it.

The Last of Us: This feels like an interactive adventure. It’s got the downtime exploring the beautifully crafted environments - and then your stealthy take out/avoid the enemy bits. Really enjoying my time with it.
Deathloop: Went back to give this a shot, and I think it’s finally clicked with me. It’s no Dishonored or Prey, but it’s not as bad as I initially felt. Still in the early goings.

Been switching between two incredibly creative games: Psychonauts 2 and Super Mario Odyssey. Both have me shaking my head in awe with all the details you notice and for how polished they are.
In a perfect world you'd get the Nintendo devs to add their mechanics and platforming to Psychonauts to make the ultimate game.

Octopath Traveler 2. It’s a great game. I’ve collected all 8 characters and I’ve enjoyed each of their individual stories so far. Up to chapter 3 with my main and one other and just started applying 2nd jobs.
I really like the visuals and music, and the combat is great as far as turn based combat goes. The only niggles are the overly long boss battles and the sometimes tedious levelling up between chapters. Other than that though, I’m having a good 8-9/10 time with the game so far.

Finished DuckTales remastered. Short and sweet, just like the original. I dig this remaster. It looks like the cartoon, with voice actors from the show, making the game feel pretty authentic. It has revamped levels and bosses, but it follows the original very close so it's always a blast to play and it never deviates from the original vision. I highly recommend it if you like classic Disney and classic platformers.

I am a few hours in, this is the first time I have ever played it much less any God of War game...what I have found though is that when the side-quests start to appear they aren't exactly easy to reach, and even then I think one of them has a boss you must defeat as if there aren't enough bosses in the game already! There should be some sort of portal that allows you to easily navigate to the side-quest areas dotted on the map instead of trying to work out how to get to that point...the combat I am not a huge fan of...it doesn't have the seamless-ness of say a Spiderman or Batman...

I haven't played it since the original launch on PS4. I'm playing the PS5 version and will play the Yuffie portion after.
It's a lot different knowing from the start it isn't really a remake, but a sequel disguised as a remake. I'm catching things I missed originally.
Especially, how Aerith knew who Cloud was before they technically met and when the destiny ghosts are putting things back on their supposed track. Also, it's starting to make more sense how Cloud himself was starting to see things that happened in FF7, but haven't happened yet (or maybe, at all) in Remake.

Xenoblade chronicles 3, its really blown me a way. The step up over 2 and torna is excellent. The combat system has me hooked.
Won't finish it before zelda so I'm somehow going to have to juggle them both. Have fire emblem engaged sealed and ready to go.
Started jedi survivor too, amazing so far. Massive star wars fan so dream game for me. Just holding out for patches.
Too many games lol
Sessions of apex and fortnite zero build with buds.

I have two time trials left in Hot Wheels Unleashed to get the Unleashed time for (Medium Difficulty).
Then... Yakuza series? Persona 5 Royal? Psychonauts? The Witcher 3? Super obscure tennis sim (Tennis Elbow 4)?
I think I like buying games more than playing them

I was on a Resident Evil kick, playing RE4 remake 4 times and then re-playing RE8 twice, but now I wanted to play something different.
Some random YouTube vid that popped up reminded me of Deus Ex Human Revolution, so I dusted off my WiiU, wrestled with Gamepad connection issues, and finally started a new replay of it.
Human Revolution is already a great game, and the Director’s Cut WiiU version is probably the best console version of it since it surprisingly doesn’t have a Remaster. It’s probably the best 3rd-party WiiU port that was ever released. Stuff like having the minimap on the touchscreen and using the touchscreen for hacking is really intuitive in a game that’s already really immersive.
The previous two times I played it I went stealth only, but now I’m trying out a combat focused build, and the game has a lot of cool guns and melee takedowns I hadn’t used before that are satisfying. I’ll probably play Mankind Divided after since I never played the DLC for that. It’s such a damn shame the likely hood of getting another game is basically zero, since Squeenix just stopped caring about their western dev investments after forcing them to work on marvel crap.

Curious how many hours have you played of it so far. I never finished the first one since the game is a grind fest for me
Valkyria Chronicles 4
I'm surprised it's really fun and I like the characters and story. The gameplay is addictive too
The accidental looking up the skirt Incident made me burst out laughing lol
Also one of my favorite battles
Having to sneak near tanks in the fog to see if they are real or fake. Using Kai to shoot the numbers on top of those 3 towers to signal the bombers to get rid of tanks

Earth Defense Force 5, feels like a rehash of 4.1 but I haven't played EDF in a long time so it's still fun.

Days Gone, finally near the end after some 40 hours. This is one slow ass burn and the most generic open world 'zombie' games there is. The terrible hillbilly redneck cast, hearing Deacon Saint Johns name every fucking minute. Dumb enemy AI, combat encounters are always the same. Only being able to fight hordes so late on in the game was a mistake.

I’m around 20 hours in. I’d say around 30-60 minutes of that time was spent levelling up to reach the next chapters, so not too bad tbh.

Arkham Origins is pretty solid so far. It took a while to get going but it´s pretty exciting now with the Joker entering the playing field. It doesn´t reinventing the wheel or anythin, it´s basically Arkham City once again with a new story. Performance is not so good on PS3 to be honest. Frame rate is very inconsitent, and it lags in the open world from time to time. Not expecting any less from PS3 though, lol.

Great game
But Breath of Fire 4 is still my favorite
I haven't played BOF 1, 2 and 5 though
My issues with BOF3 is the forced minigames
Some of them took me forever to get through
