Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (February 11-12)

Carrying on in high on life, 4 bosses killed so far. Maybe some Halo with a buddy or two, likely some fall guys to work towards lvl 100 for both kids accounts to get that Spongebob outfit.

OlliOlli World and FF7 Remake, will also start DmC 5 later today

Playing some old school SEGA games at the moment, Shenmue and Sega and Sonic All-Star Racing.

Played and beat Gargoyle’s Quest, Mario Kart Super Circuit and Wario Wario Inc. Microgame$! the past week.

Currently still squeezing everything possible out of the Theatrhythm Final Bar Line Demo. Already out 14 hours into it.

Also still playing Hatsune Miku Project Diva F on vita and Hatsune Miku Project Diva Future Tone on ps5.

Probably gonna play The Legend of Zelda: Minish Cap next.

Hogwarts Legacy. I'm simply stunned by the number of details in the game. It's so fun, yet it feels so modern. I've been super busy these days so I didn't play much, despite pre-ordering the Deluxe edition lolz. My only criticism is that they could've given us companions akin to Mass Effect, but they could always expand the RPG elements in the sequel. Guys, if you're fans of the universe, go buy the game now!

Sea of Thieves today as is community day! Hopefully make more than smidgen towards Hunter’s Call rep.

Other than that, maybe some Halo Infinite? I don’t know whether it’s because it’s the new maps or not but I actually want to play more than just for the challenges this week.

DMC5 on ps5

fm23/MHRise on XSS

just picked up MH gen on switch so may begin that in place of rise.

On PS5 its just Hogwarts Legacy this weekend, so far its been amazing and easily the best game of the year so far.

And on Switch is more Fire Emblem Engage, Bayonetta 3 and of course Splatoon 3 with the latest splatfest this weekend, Go team White Chocolate!

Midnight Suns - disappointing how it seems to have not done too well commercially. Great game to chill out with.

This weekend I was planning on playing Hogwarts Legacy. I’ve been going through it since Monday morning and it’s been fun. It hasn’t grabbed my attention fully yet; I think it has to do with being overwhelmed on how big Hogwarts castle really is. And then the Nintendo Direct happened.

I’m now currently playing Metroid Prime Remastered. I’ve never played this beloved trilogy when it released on the GameCube and subsequently the Wii, but I do enjoy this franchise. I’ve gotta say — this game is fantastic.

Tonally, the game is superb, and the atmosphere is breathtaking. It has a genuine sci-Fi feeling. A lot of FPS’s have trouble making you feel like you’re in a different world altogether. Halo did it remarkably well, and Prime has achieved it in spades. You feel like an alien in a beautifully crafted but mysterious world itself, yet slowly empowered by collecting upgrades.

The other game I’m going to be playing is The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap. This is the one LoZ game I never got to play as a kid, so I can’t have to have a fresh experience. I’ve been told it’s one of the best Zelda games overall, and that has me excited because I thoroughly enjoy the top-down view more than the 3D-model games.

I really can’t wait to see how this journey pans out for both of these games. I was needing a (new for me) Nintendo-esque pick-me-up game after being very disappointed with Fire Emblem Engage. And there is always something special about a really well crafted Nintendo game that Sony and Xbox can’t quite capture. I’ll be spending lots of time with this and The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap this weekend.

I read an article on Purebox saying that guardians of the galaxy might leave Gamepass. So I decided to play it for a second time and im having a blast again

Splatoon 3 for the Splatfest and the new Kirby demo ahead of it's release. Xbox wise, some Wreckfest as I have now purchased the additional content with the new cars. Having a great time trying these out currently..

Hogwarts Legacy and Fire Emblem Engage. It's going to be a great weekend for gaming.

On my Xbox it's a bit of elder scrolls online. Waiting for the release on like a dragon ishin on Friday. So won't dive into a new game. The series is by far my favorite game series so I'm sure I'll have hours of fun.
On my ps5 it's Hogwarts. Even as someone who isn't really a Harry Potter fan this game is great. Such a beautiful and detailed world. Really great game

I just finished Hi Fi Rush last night. So I'm mostly playing fire emblem engage, might get back to chained echoes, some arkham knight, and Gameboy games on NSO.

Hogwarts Legacy all weekend long! Excellent detail and great fun, I recommend it to everyone, fans or not.

Hogwarts Legacy has been on since 7th Feb! Every spare minute either me or the Wife are exploring. This game exceeds expectations and the map is huge! The amount of detail is incredible. Even the little touches like suits of armour having a fight - for no reason! Absolutely loving it!

I need to make some time for Disney Dreamlight Valley. Throw in some King of Fighters 15 as well.

Hogwarts Legacy, of course! Though full disclosure - I’m playing it on PS5. On my Series X I’m playing Dead Space and Age of Empires 2 DE.

Well, the Xenia UWP was just ported to Series X|S, so I'm toying with Ninja Blade and Lollipop Chainsaw. Also, on Dolphin, I'll start a Metroid Prime Trilogy playthrough.

The Metroid Prime remaster that dropped out of nowhere, the Dead Space remake that did not drop out of nowhere, and between those being my big games, I’ll also be playing Dead Cells and Castlevania Rondo of Blood. Getting unreasonably hyped for Dead Cells Return to Castlevania next month, and I don’t know if that’s my love for both Dead Cells and Castlevania, or just my sheer desperation for a new Castlevania game period.

Metroid Prime Remastered.

I'm still playing through Skyward Sword HD..

This weekend I‘ve made a start on deathloop and also the Metroid Prime Remaster which in loving so far but trying to pace myself so I don’t compete it too quickly as I feel there will be a long wait for 2/3 remasters or prime 4 coming out.

Yakuza 0. That is all.
Game took a lot of time to really grab me. Mainly because of all the stuff I have to play, not the game's fault. Yakuza 0 it's fun since minute 1. But now that I'm hooked, oh man.
I'm a fan of the series but the last one I played was back on the PS3 (and I know 0 is originally a PS3 game) but I just mean how long it's been since I played one.
5 is still my favorite so far but it's great.
60+ hours and counting.

Jetpack Joyride (Windows Phone) - Starting another excellent time wasting game!

Rayman Jungle Run (Windows Phone) - Only need to complete a few more levels.

Tetris (Windows Phone) - Slowly getting used to the touch screen.

Witcher 3 for me for the next few weeks. Got far in the game previously on PS4 but never finished completely.

Now with the new patch for consoles thought I'd but the GOTY edition and start from scratch.

Took me a while to get used to playing at 60fps, controls are a little skittish but love the game and it will probably take me a good while to get through especially with the 2 dlcs to get through as well

Kinda not sure why sometimes, but still hooked with vampire survivors. I NEED TO UNLOCK ALL THOSE LITTLE TASKS. Then I'm with guardians of the galaxy, which is a lot better than I thought

This weekend was going to be based around Hogwarts Legacy interspersed with Fire Emblem Engage battles. Then Metroid Prime shadow-dropped. Something (that isn't my wife or kid) has to give and that thing is Fire Emblem. Atomic first-world problems though, and what a great release window.

Hi Fi Rush. About a quarter of the way through. Really enjoying it.

Hogwarts. Fantastic world....
