No games. My cockpit isn't ready yet and I played Portal 2 too much the last few months. I need a break from Portal 2.
 
I recently purchased GRAVEL so I've been playing that but only occasionally as it send my PS4 fans into jet mode like no other game in my collection. Other than that, it's an enjoyable and fun game.

Also returned to CarX Drift Racing Online (PS4) and been setting new records with the BMW M4 to make XP grinding less tedious. Excellent game for zoning out after work as well.
 
I'm playing Dirt Rally 2.0 with Gamepass at the moment. Still stuck at FWD cars though. I tried driving RWD Opel Kadett once, and it was not a fun experience.

I'm also playing Dirt 3 on the side. It holds up ridiculously well even after 9 years of age, both in terms of graphics and gameplay. I hope Dirt 5 will be able to live up to it.
 
Well I fired up Aquapazza on the PS3 the other day since I bought it off the US Store some years back (2014) got frustrated with it back then because I couldn't understand the fighting controls and the difficultly seemed OP.

Found out you can tone down the AI difficulty in Options (should always look there first) and whooped Ma-Ryan (boss and from To Heart anime series) so I might play through the other character's stories and work on the trophy list.

Also going to revisit Red Dead Redemption on the PS3 as found out online is still active on there and I wasn't an online player or had an internet connection back then so might have a mossy about on that whilst I wait for Fairy Tail to download on my console from my Pre-Order next week.
 
Played 10 minutes of No Man’s Sky, froze to death and uninstalled afterwards. Gather and building games (Subnautica, Minecraft) are simply not my thing.

Should've gone creative mode like my 2 boys do, base build, explore, do some missions, find some upgrades, do more base building, slowly getting ever closer to the centre of the universe in their own way & time.

Same goes for the other 2 games you mentioned, they do the same with ARK survival evolved & lego worlds as well.

Anything to do with building they're on it, they wanted me to get em space engineers but I told them to wait until it's on game pass, they got Grounded to look forward to in a few days as well.

They make good use of the game pass.

I've played a bit of Planet Coaster, which I heard a lot of good things about. I didn't have any problem getting into the game because I used to play Rollercoaster Tycoon 2 and 3 religiously as a kid, but Planet Coaster didn't really click with me. It felt more like a 3D design tool rather than a theme park simulation.

I can see why people like it, but it isn't quite the experience I was looking for. Can't even refund now. :ouch:

Lately, it's been Halo MCC and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. Usually on the weekends I'll play F12020, mainly because CoD is taking up quite of bit of time for me during the weekdays, since I'm playing with my cowokers. I also really do need to play Ghost of Tsushima, and finish Persona 5 Royal.
 
Finished Ghost of Tsushima and absolutely adored that game, so I decided to go into Sucker Punch's earlier games to try Infamous for the first time. Currently playing Second Son which is a lot of fun. May dust of my PS3 to try the first two Infamous games and play Sly Cooper for the first time in many years. Shame the Sly collection was never released on PS4.
 
Command & Conquer Remastered Collection. Couldn’t resist after seeing it on steam.

also got back into Fallout New Vegas for the billionth time, but this time I installed a bunch of mods.
 
Playing grounded with the boys, just found the lab by the oak tree & somehow a bloody spider has got into the entrance corridor & become stuck inside (but highly aggressive) now we can't escape as it auto saved right before this happened.

I got to admit, spider's don't bother me in real life but when your the size of an ant & one drops out of nowhere from above in the dark.....

This game is pretty well made & a lot of fun.
 
Aces High III and Hell Let Loose, maybe FM7 a bit. Started skinning AH3 aircraft since I’ve got back into that one heavy and with a squad.
 
Playing around with getting places I'm not supposed to in Session. Found out that the optional trick display can count up to at least a 7x fliptrick, or in the readouts's parlance:

WIP on a completely normal project in Automation. Wheelbase is within a few tenths of an inch of an ND Miata, designed around using a 2.2L/206 HP inline-5 from my not-A3/C/3 Series range....


....so the next logical thing to do would be to put in a tweaked 6-liter V10 from a mid-90's grand tourer I'm diddling on about. Never said my company (which exists entirely within my head via using Sandbox) was entirely sane.

2011 model year *whatever* running a 6L DOHC V10, pumping out 572 HP @ 7700 RPM, running to 8300 RPM. 214 MPH top speed, 0-62 in 3.9 seconds, 11.6 in the 1/4 mile, 1.12/1.13 Gs around the skidpads.

I've been on Steam the last few weeks playing some stuff that will function decently on my PC...and I think I may have just aged out of gaming:

Papers, Please - I heard so much about this game, and for 5 bucks it wasn't terrible, but after ten in-game days and story mode irritations, I CAN see why people like it, but if I wanted to do paperwork I'll just stay at work a few more late hours.

Euro Truck Sim 1 - Retried this one, first time didn't function right for some reason. It looks meh, but it was cheap so I can deal with it, my main issue was that my truck wobbled like it was built on a Jell-O chassis...But considering I enjoyed Big Muther Truckers as a teen (and learned basic commercial market rules, funny enough) it's a more serious trucking game, and it's aight. I do own ATS and ETS2 so if they work, this one hits the hidden list, but was a nice breather.

Distance - I should like it. I don't care for it. Made it about 8 stages in, hit the talent wall, and have no interest in beating my head against a wall.

Recettear - I watched a guy on YouTube play through this, years later finally buy it, and while it doesn't amaze me it engages enough to be a distraction.

All that said, GRID was having trouble keeping my attention lately, so I may have to give up the games and do something else entirely.
 
Just finished the last of us part 2 and just started final fantasy 7 remake.

These are the 2 last games I wanted to play for this generation after I complete ff7 it's back to gran turismo and ACC for the foreseeable future.

On a side note what a good generation this has been, God of war, uncharted 4, the last of us 2, resident evil 2/3/8 and FF7! The only think missing was a new GTA game but that wont happen any time soon..
 
Yesterday, I completed the casual game Neko Atsume. This adorable game was a game I played just about every day since starting in late March. It held me together during quarantine. I was eventually able to capture all 62 cats as well as all 62 Mementos. Only thing I could try to do now is earn two more Wallpapers I haven't unlocked in the game. Funny that this game was not meant to be Japanese-exclusive until it was available in English. Certainly worth if you're a cat lover.

I recently updated my Minecraft after a long time away from playing. I noted a lot of the new changes as well as some new mobs. I noted new mobs such as cats, foxes, pandas, and polar bears. I even noted some fancy-dressed llamas and a travelling villager. There was also the crossbow that I tried out. I only really played Minecraft again because I was kind of brainstorming for a Blender 3D project I had in mind.
 
Does anyone else fire up a game-
See that it has a big update-
Say yes to it, then go play another game while waiting for said update to finish-
Then promptly forget about playing the game when the update finishes?

This happens to me all the time, I had to update FH4 so I played FH3, got sucked in and forgot all about FH4. I went to play Elite Dangerous, said yes to the update, before I knew it, I had played Tekken for over an hour then my son came in the room and wanted to play Versus....and there went the night.
