From here to there
not a PS5 game, but just picked up Wasteland 3 with all the dlc for £9.99 on sale on PSN. A game I've always had my eye on but not played, but at that price it's almost rude not to buy it. I'll be playing it on my PS5 so that's why I mentioned it in this thread ;)

My only gripe with horizon which is a harsh criticism really was everything was too fleshed out.

like every single conversation, side quest etc the npc’s just never shut up or had to much to say with a million dialogue options I got impatient in the end and just started skipping it all.
Yep. If somebody made a dartboard of all the worst things in videogames this would be the bullseye for me.

I just finished Mass Effect 3 which has the same issues. I must have skipped 80% of the dialogue and not missed any of the actual story.

Let us know what you think. I've had that on my to play list for a while.

Digital Foundy have done an excellent retrospective of Motorstorm, one of the most criminally underrated PS3 series.

Absolutely beautiful game and drive club also by them in some weather conditions was also incredible.

Thanks for the tips lads, Ia ctually have a few games, Horizon, Spider-man and Elden Ring. I already beat the latter on ps4, so it's between the first 2. I imagjne Astro's playroom is the Astrobot franchise? I loved the VR game so will try that too.

Edit: ah i also have Tales of Arise, Lego Star wars and Yakuza like a dragon.

Edit edit: oh Astrobot is free.

Yeah, Astro is free and a great introduction to the controller and is basically a homage/tribute to previous generations and games.

Was it underrated? It was the game everyone bought with their PS3s alongside RFOM in my experience.

1 and 2 were amazing games but as with most racing game series the developers drove it off a cliff.

Good point. Maybe not the first but Pacific Rift definitely was.

As they say in the vid, they built on the fundamentals of the first game and basically improved it in all areas. BLUR is another racer that was criminally underrated.

BLUR was brilliant.

It was what would happen if Need for Speed and Mario Kart had a baby.

I was always a big fan of Motorstorm. I always hope it'll get revived.

I subscribed to telegram groups and discords until a mate said, I heard theres actually quite a few non online shops who have them if you just walk by. The scalpers are all online after all. First shop I visited had it in stock.

Yeh Blur was an excellent game. Can't believe its sequel got shuttered. Just another gaming catastrophe we have Activision to thank for.

On first glance these look like PS4 games i haven't played and would want to, from the selection given.

It is. Personally, I didn't like it. I've been playing it for about a week, and have just deleted it. I only play online so maybe if you play single players it's a great game. But online is not great, IMO.

I usually just play with friends or online. If they ever made a decent career mode, that'd be great, but the focus is always on FUT which is shite.

Right I played Astro's playroom, but I have way too much to choose from and dunno what to play now. Think it's between Horizon, Ghost of Tsushima Directors cut, Spider Man MM and Tales of Arise :wenger:

I’m just playing through Days Gone, I was put off by its average reviews when it was out on PS4 but I just downloaded it off PS+ collection for my ps5 and what an underrated and under appreciated game it is.

I’m probably about 25-30 hours in now and its given me some very tense and memorable moments and that’s all I can ask for in a game. Nothing scarier than Horde chasing you down when you least expect it.

Yeah, a fantastic game. Preferred it to Last of Us myself, very underrated. It's a good game to aim for the platinum trophy as not that difficult.
