Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 516

Another action-packed week has come to a conclusion, but it doesn't look like many of you will be playing the latest hot release, Skull & Bones. In fact, it's last week's hot new thing Helldivers 2 that's remaining incredibly popular among our team.

Another weekend of spreading democracy! Helldivers 2 is just about the only thing I want to play at the moment. I just can’t get enough of it.

It's all sunshine and rainbows here — even if my family couldn't find a PS Portal as my birthday gift this weekend — because Arcade Archives Rainbow Islands includes Rainbow Islands Extra, so I can reminisce about playing the Mega Drive port in 1990 instead.

I'm hoping to take a slight break from a project I'm working on to check out Helldivers 2 and Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown.

Jade Sayers

This weekend I’ll be playing the next game on my backlog clearing resolution: Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch. I remember playing it when it originally came out on PS3, and rage quitting because I got stuck so I’m hoping now I’m older, wiser, and slightly better at games that I’ll be more successful this time around!

After eons of waiting, I’ve finally managed to procure a PS Portal, and plan on putting it through its paces. I picked up Persona 3 Reload on a whim, and that should keep me occupied, at least until Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth arrives. It's going to be a cosy weekend on the couch!

Stephen Tailby

Once again, I can only really say I'm playing a couple of things for review purposes, but you'll see those write-ups pretty soon. I probably won't get time for much else this weekend, but if I do, it'll be Helldivers 2.

These are the games we're playing this weekend, but what about the rest of you? As always, share your gaming itinerary in the comments section below.
