The last game you completed, and rating (Console Edition)

Unicorn Overlord 9/10

If you like your Fire Emblem type Japanese strategy RPG battlers you would love this game. The game is just about the right length so didn't out stay is welcome. The story is great, the characters are great though possibly a few too many of them if you unlock them all, as you don't have enough space in your available units to have everyone in a unit, so you will have some which just don't get used, which is why it is not 10/10. That and as you near the end of the game you will be wallowing in equipable items which just fill the screen. But other than that it is an excellent game on PS5.

The Devil in Me. Wasn’t great to be honest. Loved the murder hotel premise but felt so unpolished compared to until dawn and even the quarry. All the characters were pretty unlikeable and dialogue was pretty poor. Ah well at least it was on plus.

5.5/10

I've only played the 5 hour trial but thought it was great. Really need to buy it.
 
Just finished GTA5 on PS5. Have started it a few times but this time managed to go all the way and finish it! Really enjoyed it and for a 10 year old game it’s held up amazingly well! 9/10
 
Ninja Gaiden 2 Black. Loved it. Played path of the acolyte and thought the difficulty was just right. Boss fights were reasonably hard but not so much as I gave up (which I'd normally do). I did play it on the 360 when it first came out but remember it being even harder than the first one. Got as far as the swamp level and gave up but found this one pretty easy. 9 hours in total which included some time farming essence so I could upgrade my weapons early (which probably helped with the difficulty balancing too). Brilliant range of weapons allowing for different strategies and play styles, blood and guts galore along with over the top busty and big bootied wenches. The addition of the extra characters was pretty good for a break but some of the recycled boss fights felt a bit lazy. This is a deadly ninja who is carving his way through the game brutally killing absolutely everyone in sight yet for some reason doesn't finish off the bosses who come back to fight him later, some of them several times.
Sprinted through a few chapters on the challenge mode afterwards using the archfiend blade and had loads of fun. Probably done with it now as far as replay-ability goes though and will look for something similar while we await NG4 at the end of the year, gamepass on day one :cool:

8/10

Stellar Blade 8/10

I enjoyed it allot, combat was fun though I did find it a challenge at times. Liked the side quests for the main side characters such as enya etc

Music was good but it not rotating the tracks automatically is annoying.

Hope we get a sequel :) I choose ending I felt fit not sure it needs multiple ones but as much as I enjoyed it am not playing it another two times right through to get the others
 
Just completed Ryse: Son of Rome. After having it at launch on the Xbox One... Trying to clear some of my monumental backlog!

I really enjoyed it! Replayed the first mission to re-do the tutorial and re-learn all the moves. The graphics still stand up well today, and the game is not that long, so you can't fault the pacing. I have similar feelings about this game as I did when I completed The Order: 1886, impressive visuals and decent enough gameplay. The storyline is similar to the Gladiator movies and if you liked them, like I did, I think you'll like this game.

I'd give it 7.5/10
 
Furthermore, I have a backlog of games and am trying to clear them... I completed Gear of War Remastered. I encountered very few bugs on the Series X, and again, the graphics are decent even by today's standards. I love the GoW franchise, and if you like/love cover-based, 3rd-person shooters, well, this is the Gold Standard IMHO. It bridged the gap for me for a while until Emergence Day comes out, and I will probably play GoW Tactics now.

It's a solid 8/10 for me.
 
CP2077. Having purchased it on release the buggy mess put me off so much and after a few false starts I finally gave it a proper play through after the 2.1 patch

9/10. Gotta get the DLC now.
 
I've rolled credits in Monster Hunter WILDS but I'm no where near done. I'm enjoying all the side quests, optional quests and end game grinding.

I'll probably carry on with it until AC Shadows releases on the 20th - before Soulsborne Season First BERSERKER, AI Limit and the big one Elden Ring Nightreign.
 
COD:Modern Warfare - remastered

i got an Xbox series S off a mate for a decent price, because i'm still using W7 on my desktop i couldn't get the 2019 COD:MW to run properly. as soon as i got the console, that was the first game i bought. the graphics are lovely, but the gameplay left me cold. there isn't one level i would happily go back to play again. i then tried COD:MW2. same deal. nice, but lacking (IMHO)

at least the original COD:MW with the remastered jiggery pokery still has it. i can go to that. pick any level. play thru it. and enjoy it

i don't know if being a vintage (me, not the game) has anything to do with it, but the original COD:MW is still, in my opinion, the best of the bunch
