Think I'm at the final boss in Black Myth; haven't really played since Monday but I should have it wrapped by the weekend

Probably gonna run NG+ tbh

This game is crack. I decided to give it little a go after this comment, remembering that it's in my list of games I got for free once. I ended up putting everything else on back burner becauseI got so addicted to it.

I did finish it last night (well, it's not really the type of game you ever finish, I beat the final boss), just in time for Space Marines 2 today.

"Crack" is a good way of putting it. It's got that "just one more run" loop down pat. Like potato chips (can't eat just one), except the longer you play, the longer each loop gets, until you're eating the whole damned bag. I finished it on PS5, bought it on Switch, got addicted again, got my daughter hooked, and now we're both playing it on PS5 again. Scary stuff.

A few mixed reviews have kind of scared me off this one. I'm a fussy bastard, though.

Astro Bot looks like a ton of fun, but I have trouble spending $60 for 15 hours of tech demo/ product placement.

Is that just like Astro's Playroom part 2?



I've still never played Astro's Playroom even though it literally comes preinstalled on the PS5 lol

First of all, play Astro's Playroom. It's "lite" fare, but it's completely awesome.

Definitely looks rad!

Astro's Playroom was like PS5's Mario Odyssey. I'm looking forward to playing Astro-Bot.

Yeah, I'm probably going to cave and buy it within the next few days. I'm pretty sure my daughter will love it too, so... does that make it half price?

Astro Bot is virtually flawless and a joyous celebration of gaming

I’ve been playing Tony Hawk 1+2 again this week. They really did a great job remaking it. So much fun. It’s also the last game I can comfortably destroy my kids at.

Space Marine 2 is like if GoW and GoW had a baby.

I loved the first one on PS3... space Marines that is.

I loved it on PS3 too. I played the OG Space Marines a couple of weeks ago on PC. It's very dated.

The new one makes it look even more so.

Cool...now I will have to check it out....maybe. Gamepass has kind of ruined me. Especially the older I get.
