Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 533

A busy week of Summer Game Fest shenanigans has come to its conclusion, meaning its time for some rest, relaxation, and… Red Dead Redemption 2? Okay, no one on the team is playing Rockstar’s spaghetti western this weekend, but that’s okay, because the alliteration worked.

Aaron Bayne

A new season of The Finals kicked off this week, so it'll be an early start at the Battle Pass grind!

Jaimie Ditchfield

My plan is to finish building a character for Elden Ring prior to the DLC launch on Friday, however I'm off to the cinema to see Inside Out 2 on Saturday, followed by a trip to Download Festival on Sunday. It's going to be a busy one!

Sammy Barker

I’m experiencing gaming paralysis: with too many games to play, I end up playing nothing. Maybe I’ll just complete my daily tasks in Honkai: Star Rail, eh?

Scott McCrae

I am still thoroughly jet lagged from SGF, I think I'll play some Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania to get ready for the new one, but chances are I'll be sleeping all weekend! Watch this space.

That’s all the games we’re playing this weekend, but what about the rest of you? What’s keeping you occupied? Let us know in the comments section below.
