Jumped in to Rainbow Six Siege over the weekend, and really enjoyed it. It's small enough that it doesn't feel intense and exhaustive. Also, as it's 5 v 5, you're not sitting around waiting for an eternity for a match. Good multiplayer fun that seems to be continually supported by the developers, so that's positive.

Going to pick up Wolfenstein II on PSN during the sale. A fair few good games on offer there for Black Friday.

Picked up The Evil Within 2 and Fractured but Whole during the black friday sales. Playing Stick of Truth right now and it is way more fun than I expected it to be.

Jumped into Wolfenstein II and I swear, this is possibly the hardest FPS around. Even on lower difficulties it's insane. I found the first two Wolfenstein's not so bad and could easily go through them on the highest difficulty, but this right here is insane. The courtroom sequence is nuts. Spent two hours on it last night and got nowhere. Had to drop it down a level.

Can't imagine going through it on the hardest difficulty - no deaths, no saves, hardest difficulty. Yeah, no thanks.

Best way to play that game is to run an shoot do not hunker down and try to hold a spot. You will die quickly.

That's how I have been playing. The courtroom sequence has you with no armour and no ammo. It's intense trying to move around and killing enemies when you have to look directly at the ammo and armour to pick it up.

Was picking up a 3DS game for son this afternoon at Game Stop and noticed they had like 8 SNES Classics in stock behind the counter - couldn't resist snagging one. Now I just need to get some cord extenders and I can introduce my kids to a lot of my favorite childhood games.

And if those games weren't included in the set 30, you can easily add them!

Oh, yeah - thanks for the reminder! I bookmarked the instructions for that last month, and had already forgotten about it :D

Picked up a Playstation 4 last week. Dove in to Horizon Zero Dawn and I'm obsessed. This may be the best game I've ever played.

Did you get the DLC with it? I finished the main campaign and then jumped into the DLC and loved it. It's mighty hard though, so if you do jump into that, make sure you're at a high level.

Has anybody played the Zero Time Dilemma games?

No not yet but will definitely get it. Looking for other PS4 recommendations. Was thinking Last of Us next?

Depends on what you like. You definitely should get Uncharted 4, and the rest of the series if you haven't played them before.

Last of Us is good, but I'm not the biggest fan of it. However, many are.

Also, pick up Resogun on the PSN store. It's cheap. It's still one of the greatest games on the console.
