FF16 - Good game so far but the game lacks any depth, there is no difficulty, combat is simplistic but fun at least. Boss fights are awesome accompanied by cool music full of stylish cutscenes. Money and material system is useless, there is nothing to buy and materials mean nothing because the game gives you better equipment frequently so no real reason to upgrade anything. A discount game for sure but a good mid tier game.
Gal Guardians: Demon Purge - I'm usually up for an Inti Creates platformer but something is off with this one, hasn't managed to grab my attention.

Fixing to finish up Shadow of the Tomb Raider this weekend.
All in all, the trilogy was great, especially for free with PS Plus.
Does have some stumbling points, and I could write a whole essay on Lara Croft (good and Bad).
Will have to play rock paper scissors to decide what to play next though... Was going to do Death's door, but it's leaving Ps Plus

Yeah, I like to start grinding early with these games, but they open up sooo slowly. You can't get to the good stuff until later.
Like a dragon just started letting me summon diaper wearing Yakuza to fights. Then I had to fight of sleep sheep and co... roosters in a cinema.
So much WTF in so little time

DEATH STRANDING DIRECTOR'S CUT(PS5)
Still taking my time with this second playthough.
I'm over halfway in the story and things are now picking up quite a bit.
The story makes far more sense now that I'm picking up on details I'd previously missed, but whether that story ends up being good and satisfying remains to be seen...
STAR WARS: KNIGHTS OF THE OLD REPUBLIC (PC/GOG)
Now, I'm not really playing this (yet!) as it's lined up for after D.S.,
but bought it deeply discounted and decided to dabble a little.
Created my blaster-wielding Scout and played the first mission.
I'm sold already. Game's got a huge amount of promise, and I think it'll be a ride worth taking.

Bloodstained ritual of the night
GRRRrrrrrRRRRRrrrrr
Game is fun but old-school cheap sometimes. The gameplay loop really forces you to go back to town and stock up on healing, or visit healing couches all the time. The lack of auto saves had me mentally throwing my controller.
Waiting for the October PSN games to drop so I can jam Calisto Protocol

RESIDENT EVIL 4 (2023) (PS5)
Halfway through. Enjoying it thus far.
I went in thinking it was merely going to be a by-the-books, 1:1 reskin of a classic, but CAPCOM went and did such much needed refining and overhauling to the gameplay and exploration.
Gorgeous graphics, great blend of action and horror, and stands apart from the original.
No better way to begin Spooktober!
MAX PAYNE (PS2)
Playing this between RE4 sessions and wow, now this goes down smooth. Well, except for the nightmare sections, which are thankfully few and far between. Absolutely FUBAR.

RE4 (2023) is sneaky in how the first act sticks close to the original, while the second and third acts deviate heavily. A great remake but just like RE2R, it doesn't completely replace the original for me as I enjoy its quirkier tone.
I'd strongly recommend picking the Separate Ways DLC though, as that massively improves upon the original and it includes a lot of scenarios removed from Leon's remade campaign.

Started Callisto protocal...
Hey! let's make Dead space without letting them sue us!
Yeah I know it's the spiritual successor.
Problem is, since I replayed Dead space one a few months back, this feels VERY familiar. I predicted the jump scares 9 times out of 10.
Good graphics, with some weird light effects. Lots of flickering.
Encounters seem to go without a hitch, or you get steamrolled. A generous autosave stops it from getting to cheap.
Considering it's for "free" on PS plus, it's well worth the play, but it just isn't as creepy and cheek clenching as Dead space

Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay - Still great, more linear than I remember, and surprisingly unforgiving. Been so long that it's almost like replaying it for the first time.
With the X360 storefront shutting down next year, picked up an X360E model to replace my creaky Xbox 360 Arcade survivor and checked if there were any not back-compat games I still needed to pick up a physical copy, A lot of PC ports from that era can be found on GOG/Steam, but often without decent gamepad support for playing on the couch.

Look, I generally don't do well with horror games, and so far I've been...handling RESI 4 Remake (as it's more of an action game) but there's this upcoming section which might be the final nail in this playthough's coffin. 
Would be a shame, because I think I'm quite near the end.
Sigh
Time to turn down the volume and max the brightness I guess!

Got a bit further in Callisto Protocol. Think I'm about 40% in.
Slight spoilers... maybe?
New area has "the blind enemies". Thought this would make a big shift in how you play, the game even warns you that they react to sound!
What they DON'T react to:
Me sneak past
Me shanking their buddies right next to them
Me force throwing their buddies into spikes
Me jumping up and down on their buddies to make them drop loot.
I did die a few times, but only because I was trying to add maximum disrespect to my kills.
This game really has a few odd choices and... glitches? design choices?
The lack of a map is very annoying

Nice to know it's still partially broken almost a year on and 1 DLC later. Are the checkpoints still rubbish? I remember several of them triggering as I entered an area to restock before a boss/horde encounter, rather than just before said boss/horde, so that I could enjoy collecting supplies over and over again when I died!
The thing to remember is that despite having Glen Schofield of Dead Space fame at its head, they really really wanted to lean into the cinematic design like The Last of Us instead. You don't really need a map as the handful of significant side paths just lead to secret audio-logs and some upgrade material, and you'll eventually be funneled to the next cutscene/crawl space transition you can't go back from.

I think the combat is better. Had a few glitches, but overall it works. Not being able to do a jump dodge blows though. Some attacks seem undodgeable. At the moment I am swimming in ammo though, so it's less of an issue. My Jedi powers are also more fun once you upgrade
The side areas are actually rather big. You can wander of for 4-6 interconnected rooms, just to realize you are going the scenic route. It's only an issue because I WANT to explore and it's difficult to judge where the "correct" path is
Like I said, it's fun enough for a free game, but I will probably start aiming for the end. Arkham knights is calling

Lies of P is getting way more attention than I anticipated and without a negative onset thereto have I remind you.
It is so rich and vibrant that the amount of deaths counting against my character, or rather build, is a non-event that usually frustrates me. The random difficulty spikes and very unpredictable move sets from enemies, I still don’t have the perfect guard down, is refreshing in the sense of not having you ball through the game and story progression thus making you to be aware of your surroundings.
I hope a DLC will come into play.

Finished Cailisto Protocol. Yeah... fine while free but won't bother again, even the dlc is not worth it
Started Nier Replicant again. Runs very well on Ps5, but then I ran into the old school save system. Not sure if I will carry on, just to easy to lose progress.
Weird West. It's... ok. Very good idea, but I'm struggling with the interface a bit. Might be better on Pc.
