Welcome to the weekend! If you're looking for things to keep you busy over the next few days, there have been a bunch of new Xbox Game Pass additions this week, three more Free Play Days are available right now, and there's another absolutely massive Xbox sale live at the moment featuring over 800 discounts!
Here's what we're playing this weekend:

I'm preparing for a week off next week, so I won't be doing that much gaming over the weekend, but the two Xbox games that I'll be playing if I get any spare time are Two Point Campus and Arcade Paradise.
The former is obviously on Game Pass now, and for me it's one of the best Xbox Game Pass releases we've seen in some time. I've been having a fantastic time with it so far, and I might have to grab it for my Switch while I'm away!
The other one is Arcade Paradise, which you'll spot a review for on Pure Xbox in the near future. It totally went under the radar and we've reviewed it on a whim, but I'm pleased to say that it's absolutely worth your time if you're interested.
Have a good weekend, everyone!

I'll be digging into a review of a certain upcoming release this weekend, so I'm looking forward to getting stuck into that!
Also, yep, it's 2007 again and I'm back on Project Gotham Racing 4. After ranting and raving about it in a recent feature I couldn't resist jumping back in and, well, I've now restarted the whole career mode. It bloody well holds up, even 15 years later!!
Have a good one, folks.

Picked up Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove on Steam for a song earlier in the week. Just finished Plague of Shadows, so it's on to Spectre of Torment.
Will be playing Persona 3 Portable on Vita, GTA: Vice City on Series X, Doom 3 on PS4 and Castlevania: Circle of the Moon on Wii U. Really enjoying all these games so far!
Iโm quite excited to play Cult of the lamb - have downloaded it but not started it yet. Also playing Two point Campus and Assassins creed odyssey. On PS5 Iโm playing F1 2022.
On my Xbox it's Solasta crown of the magister. Isometric crpg. Pretty enjoyable game, isn't my type of game normally so it's a bit getting used tobut tis enjoyable. Slowly taking baby steps in Elden Ring as well. Challenging and me normally isn't a good combi so I take my time and so things extremely slowly seeing if I can get more confident in it.
On my ps5 I'm playing God of War. Finished the story and now doing the post game stuff for the platinum
I felt nostalgic and went back to the 360 version of Gears of War to play through the campaign again. I also might start Tunic, or another indie game on GamePass. Have a great weekend everyone!
Trying out the Avengers game on Series X since itโs on Game Pass.
Its all about the 360 backlog for now. Tales of Vesperia, Saints Row 2 for now.
Back to Kingdoms of Amalur plus a smattering of other stuff like Two Point Campus.
I bought max payne 3 on sale and that's the only thing im gonna be playing. Gotta say..it holds up pretty well
Just finishing off two point campus ,another 5 achievements then it's done .... Till the dlc comes out
I'm playing Kirby And The Forgotten Land..
Playing 2 point campus and loving it. Also tried bit of cook8ng sim but poured soup everywhere. I would be sacked by now
Just finished the first Gears of War (Ultimate Edition) for the first time. Was pretty cool. Thinking about jumping to the second one.
Since I'm back in the Xbox realm I have decided to replay Max Payne. What a game. Still looks and plays really well.
On PS5 I'm playing Final Fantasy 7 Remake. I'm not a big jrpg fan but I like it so far.
On Switch I'm playing Super Mario 3d World with my daughter.
Have a good one guys and gals!
@Lup Definitely dive into Gears 2! It's a truly great game, and one of the best shooters ever. The campaign still ranks at the top of the list for the series.
@gollumb82 the first Max Payne? i find it hard to believe that it holds well. I think there's a remake in works right now
@Clankylad There might be a remake of the first 2 games coming soon-ish. I read it somewhere
@Jslade
Already did! I'm liking it even more than the first one. The beginning is pretty epic! I'm happy to have zero knowledge about these games so I'm sure I'm gonna enjoy them.
@fabisputza007
To me it does, but I guess it's subjective. I know about the remake but it's a long way off. I am planning to play the entire trilogy so it's good to hear MP3 still holds up well.
Was playing Black Legend but it's not great. I'll prob just leave it. Might put back Chinatown Detective Agency. Trying to play games I've bought but never completed or played
Playing red dead redemption 2. Started it when it came out, made it to Saint denis which is as fas as I made it last time. Really is amazing. Also playing as dusk falls and.. oh yeah, buying a motorcycle
LEGO Star Wars: The Video Game (PS2) - Busy weekend so far, but trying to finish up Episode III in coop with my son.
Mahjong by Microsoft (Android) - Nearly halfway with my monthly medals.
Make It Rain: The Love of Money (Windows Phone) - Playing here and there still.
Fifa 23 on Playstation 5!! Was so nice of EA to give me the game weeks early for free!! ๐๐
I am playing BDO and Rim world. Rimworld has a few crash bugs that I hope they sort out fast otherwise terrific game. So far I have had two colonies fail in spectacular ways. The first everyone died in fire the second one of my colonists went nuts and killed then proceeded to eat everyone.
