FF7 and up was released for the XB1 (I assume on the XB Store). It isn't the remake, which may or may not be coming to other systems. It wasn't until FFX that the game characters looked closer to their FMV models.
The original 7 is where I started playing. X blew me away. I have a love it or hate it feeling about the FF games usually. I'm officially done with FF7 remake and overall I loved it.

Console-wise been working my way through Ghost of Tsushima. I like it, but maybe because I live in Japan I get a bit tired of the motif. Blew through Ratchet and Clank before that though, incredible game.


Been spending more time on the mac side of things for gaming lately.
 
Started the Tsushima DLC and wow do I feel incredibly rusty with the combat. I find it incredibly relaxing just walking around taking in the sights.
Same... bought the Directors Cut for the PS5. Just made it to Iki Island really enjoying the game so far.

I too struggle with all the button press combos to execute combat moves. With this game and the Spiderman games I usually learn two or three moves that work for me and just stick with those.

There was a game update that installed yesterday that now let's you give the foxes belly rubs. :)

When I finished the main campaign I didn't use my ghost weapons much because I wanted to save them for really bad scenarios where I might need them. Now I need them just to stay alive because I'm so rusty at combat. :D

I'm the same way with button combos. Find a small number that work for me and we're good.

Finished the FF7R DLC 100% and the same for the Ghost of Tsushima DLC. Both still leave me hungry for more. Happy to know FF7R Part 2 is in the making, just hope we'll be getting a GoT 2. I would pre-order it without a doubt.

Î started with Assassin's Creed Valhalla. Been loving it so far. Always been a fan of the franchise and raiding England is a lot of fun!
 
I am finally replaying modern warfare 2 remastered. It’s the campaign only, but I usually just do that part and skip multiplayer.

I am waiting for a sale to catch up with the latest black ops 4 and the new version modern combat.
 
Going back and playing Dragon Age 2. I finished origins way back when, but not 2. I tried playing Inquisition, and just something about it, every time I try to get into it, I just can't. I even put 5 hours into it this time before going to DA2, but just nothing...
 
Im playing fortnite PS5, just got another solo win

I don't usually win like everybody else so I'm super stoked got 8 kills through the finish

I know there's lots of building settings I just stick to the basic builder pro's
 
Bought Avengers on sale and am really having fun with it.

Hell, wish I had gone with my gut and bought this last sale and skipped on CyberPunk. Just cannot get into cyberpunk.
 
Currently playing Tales of Arise. As a massive Tales fan, this game has hit all of the right notes (so far) and it has been a while since I have been engrossed in a game like this. FF7R Integrade was good, but of course short.
 
I'm giving Control another go. There's some things I still hate and I wasn't enjoying myself initially. Now that I have the "launch" power I am intrigued. The game has to have the worst map I've ever seen. It looks like I'm not the only one who didn't like the map.


I really want to know who thought it was a good idea to lock dash/dodge behind a unlockable power?

Did you get the base or Ultimate Edition? The Ultimate adds some good story stuff to fill in some of the gaps.
 
I'm downloading MW-warzone campaign on PS5 including all of the packs and updates and looks like the game is going to take up most of my storage

Very interested in how 120fps on 1080p looks like

That one is still on my backlog. No clue when I'll ever get to it though...

I bought the base, played it for a short time and didn't like it. The Ultimate eventually became free with PS+ so I was able to get that also.
 
Ok, it was a rocky start but Control has officially won me over. I'm enjoying myself now. Picking up all the things and launching them at fools never gets old.

Xbox Series X Tried COD Warzone... huge download, and just mountains of futzing around with registering accounts for Activision or whoever, so much pointless complexity of cash, buying weapons, then waiting for a lobby, gave up and went back to playing the 360 emulated MW3, and wiped Warzone from my system.

Sable - achingly beautiful game experience. A little glitchy on framerate and collision gaps, a bit too much reading of dialogue, and the multi-headed goat-monster I saw floating over the desert was an oddity, but otherwise a sublime experience.
 
Turned on my PS5 last night, first time in two months. Jumped back into Mass Effect 1 (LE), and was made painfully aware that I hadn't played in a while, when a character told me "Just come and see me when you're done - you know where I work!". Uuuh, I am pretty sure I once knew where you work, but right now I don't even know what room of what station on what planet I am in! :D

The worst is when there's a bunch of attack combos and you don't even remember what each button does.
 
Friend of mine was telling me last week he was replaying the Mass Effect games and how good they are. Never really tried them... There are too many games and so little time...
 
I bought Kena Bridge of Spirits and have played it for a bit. Honestly, I'm not feeling it. Something is just missing and I can't put my finger on it. Putting it on hold and will try it again later.

So now I'm playing Diablo 2 Resurrected. Now we are talking. Forgot how much fun the old Diablo games were. Makes me remember how great Blizzard used to be. sigh
