    I am currently playing through two Xbox games on my PS5 :))

    Gears of War Reloaded and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle

    Gears of War Reloaded is that a new remaster of the original game? I gave up on the series after Gears of War 4.

    It is an update of the Ultimate Edition, which was the remake of the original :D

    I watched the trailer looks good. I will probably wait for a price drop though.

    Expedition 33, but it doesn’t seem to have quite grabbed me in the way it seems to have other people.

    Not familiar with that game is it a PlayStation exclusive?

    A lot o my gaming recently has been old titles, other than the Tomb Raider remaster's not bought any new games for some time.

    So I finished 007 Legends. Is the ending less abrupt with the Skyfall dlc? As abrupt as the ending was, the last mission on the space station was actually quite fun.

    I never unlocked the Skyfall DLC, just been doing a bit of research and Xbox Live for the 360 is still active remarkably, there could still be a way to get the Skyfall DLC if I can retrieve my original 360 login details.

    TBH the Skyfall DLC missions are so poor (the end with Patrice in the skyscraper is laughable) that I wouldn't even bother.

    Cheers, it may be a chore to get the Skyfall DLC.

    If you're interested it may be worth watching a playthrough of them on YouTube. They're not very long.

    Yeah good idea I will take a look.

    Pilot Down: Behind Enemy Lines (PS2)
    From the developers behind Prisoner Of War. This feels similar, but different. A USAF pilot is shot down over Nazi occupied Europe, and must fight his way back home. Unlike POW, here were are given access to weapons, and can choose to openly engage the enemy, or sneak around them, with the assistance of an upgrade system. Completing mandatory and optional objectives, as well as finding heading treasures earn XP, which can be traded in for perk points between missions.

    I can't recall ever hearing about this, before I recently pick it up, with a stack of other PS2 games, which is a shame, as I am sure I would have given it a chance.

    Playing Quantum of Solace on Xbox 360, I am weaponless stuck in Bolivia and getting shot to pieces and completely forgot what to do :))

    Got a weapon, this game has always been a bit hit and miss for me certainly not as good as Blood Stone or Goldeneye Reloaded OO7 with DC.

    I quite like the Shanty Town level in QoS.

    Just bought myself a Steam Deck OL£D 512GB and I love it, been thinking about buying one for a few years and made a wise choice choosing this handheld it is a thing of beauty.

    Playing a bit of Half Life 2,

    I can't wait to play the older Splinter Cell games on this.

    Playing Tomb Raider Anniversary on Steam Deck god this is so cool, its opened up a whole other dimension to this game. When I am off at the weekend I will do a deep dive and see what Bond games I can get for this thing.

    Just achieved the platinum trophy on Power Wash Simulator 2

    Perfect for chilling with a podcast or youtube video on.

    Alto Collection, playing the first game on STEAM, its quite addictive and for its simplicity visually very good.

    GRIP.jpg
    Grip which is a lot of fun, i have connected my GOG Games library to my Steam Deck, i am impressed with the Steam Deck's customization.

    Edited: Restarted Indiana Jones and the Emperors Tomb plays so much better on the Steam Deck compared to my PC.

    Half-Life 2: 20th Anniversary Documentary

    Excellent documentary, one of the best games ever made.

    Medieval Dynasty (PS5)
    hqdefault.jpg
    Imagine Kingdom Come: Deliverance, but with an added settlement building element. I'm into my 2nd year, Winter wasn't as bad as I was expecting, but then my little settlement is small with only 4 people (incl. myself). The meat that the hunter produces, plus any that I bring home, is more than enough to feed everyone. I have even had to dump a load of food past its best into my compost bin (to be turned into fertilizer next season). And still trying to figure out how NPCs can best earn XP.

    XIII remake which looks remade again. I have barely touched this game since i bought it though the remake does look better than it did thanks to updates. blasting through the game on the STEAM DECK though part of me just wants to put the original game on instead.

    Project Cars III and Dirt 4 first time hooking up STEAM deck to my 50 inch 4K TV using hub and wired controller, looked better than I was expecting.

    I may buy Spiderman Remastered it's on offer.

    Medieval Dynasty (PS5)
    My village population has now doubled to 8, and has a nearly fully autonomous production line going. I also also figured out that improving the mood of my workers, will also improve their rate of XP gain. It's obvious now i'm thinking about it.

    I saw a review for Medieval Dynasty looked good, on Fallout 4 you have a similar thing when you decide to build settlements, making sure settlers have enough bed's and food etc, give them roles/jobs. Is Medieval Dynasty a PlayStation exclusive?

    If you have dabbled with the settlement building in Fallout 4, you will have an idea of how Medieval Dynasty place. Just imagine everything but the base building removed, and set in the medieval times.

    No, it's available on X Box too. The funny thing is, I searched for a copy for months, and couldn't find it anywhere. I knew it had been released here, but it eluded me everywhere I looked. I eventually found a copy in my local CEX. A week later, Argos stock it.


    Medieval Dynasty (PS5)
    My wife is pregnant! From what I understand, once she gives birth, she'll be unavailable to work for two years. I'll have to pick up the slack and make enough tools for my workers, to see the village through those two years (she works in my Smithy).

    I will look for the game on Xbox, I have spent quite a lot on games this month (Black Friday deals on STEAM) so I will be disciplined until next month.

    I'm currently playing through Stellar Blade and it is quite good fun. Currently in the desert environment.

    The backlog is continuing to grow thanks to a resubscription to PS Plus and some new purchases:
    • Ghost of Yotei
    • Alone in the Dark
    • Forespoken
    • Tomb Raider Anniversary (PS2 Classic)
    • Red Dead Redemption (when it is on PS Plus on 2nd Dec)
    • Prince of Persia The Lost Crown

    A good list I have restarted playing TR Anniversary on the STEAM deck. I do like that trilogy of games they are brilliant on handheld.

    Red Dead Redemption on Xbox is a game I often go back to, I end up playing it for hours.

    I have a few of the Prince of Persia games though never played The Lost Crown.

    Why is Xbox asking me to verify my age when it has by details to make purchases, its getting ridiculous.

    Basically, it is to do with the UK Online Safety Act that was introduced in the summer. An unintended consequence of it.
