Ah nice one :)

Was going through the stars games this month, getting coins and collectables and thought of you, cos you normally post a reminder!

Zero-Cool · 25-11-2023 08:52PM

Right, back in the PS Stars Points grind. 2 latest challenges with coin rewards where you need to play a game from a list and but a game from wither list. I do not recommend buying a game just for 50 coins boost but if you were planning to buy one, start the campaign first. It does not count if you already bought the game.

I think Fallout 76 is on plus? Might have been removed but witht checking if any of the November Picks list are on plus or already in your library.

If Fallout isn't available Warframe is F2P

Zero-Cool · 04-12-2023 11:04PM

Latest points reward campaigns are live but both require you to buy a game from the list ugh. Handy to start these first of you're planning on buying any soon.

Zero-Cool · 05-12-2023 10:58AM

And one more, play any of the ps plus games going live today to get a handy 50 points.

I've already bought BG3 and God of War so I though tit would just pop when I clicked into it but it doesnt. Pity

Yeah that's a dirty one, reward the person of they already bought it as these are mostly for new games as it is so it's not like they'd have to be giving loads of points for old games bought.

I see there's a new End of Year sale on and Tunic is down 33% to €20 and Cocoon is down 20% to €20.

Would anyone have a recommendation for either? Tempted by both.

And you're welcome in advance when whichever I choose is free on PS Plus next month.

Potential-Monke · 07-12-2023 08:58PM

I've played a few hours of Tunic on Gamepass and loved it. Decided to wait until it was available on PS but haven't pulled the trigger yet (dirtily waiting for PS+ inclusion). It has one of the best in game booklets of any game ever.

Exclamation Marc · 08-12-2023 02:17AM

Oh shiiiiiit, this is a nice surprise.

God if War Ragnarok Valhalla....

Out next week as free DLC.

EoinMcLovin · 12-12-2023 06:27PM

That time of year again

I spent 652 hours playing 42 games.

Wossack · 12-12-2023 07:39PM

398 hrs on 63 games - getting good use of the ps extra sub anyway

Damien360 · 12-12-2023 07:46PM

457 hours on 55 games. BF and FIFA top games on hours. I'm surprised by the number of games played.

DaveyDave · 12-12-2023 07:52PM

100 hours, 14 games.

Spider-Man 2, 25hrs [Platinum]

Armored Core VI, 25hrs

GT7, 18hrs

Need for Speed Hot Pursuit Remastered, 9hrs

Red Dead Redemption, 7hrs

JimBurnley · 12-12-2023 07:55PM

295 hours, nice to see Sleeping Dogs in my top 5, I loved that game albeit 10+ years behind everyone else! Still holds up

Exclamation Marc · 12-12-2023 08:06PM

400 hours playing 23 games

Top Spot was Cyberpunk with 101 hours

6 Platinum Trophies

Penn · 12-12-2023 08:16PM

486 hours over 32 games.

25% of those hours were Baldurs Gate 3.

Also got 486 trophies (4 plat), which is an extremely pleasing average of exactly 1 trophy per hour.

Top 5 games:

Baldurs Gate 3

Star Wars Jedi Survivor

Crash Bandicoot N-Sane Trilogy

Lies of P

Like A Dragon Ishin

Potential-Monke · 12-12-2023 08:24PM

1301 hours

93 games

Rocket League in the top again

70% on PS5 games, 2% on PSVR, rest PS4

Not a big fan of the way they've done it this year. Or just the mobile version isn't as good. Will check it again on desktop. Think my hours are down. I'll blame Xbox for that.

CastorTroy · 12-12-2023 09:18PM

247 hours

8 games.

Immortals Fenyx Rising has the top spot at 84 hours

Followed by GoW: Ragnarok @ 46 hours, Horizon FW @ 40 hours, Gotham Knights @ 27 and Guardians of the Galaxy @ 19. GotG was also the first game I played this year.

I do have it a bit confused though. I'm currently playing Horizon with the app showing 51 hours played, the wrap up has it in my top 5 with 40 hours played, while the monthly playtimes are showing 25 hours played due to me starting last month. I haven't played since Sunday night so guess the stats are from last week sometime.

What's so good about Fenyx Rising?

Genuinely curious as its sat in my backlog for a while and it's clearly got something if you've put that much time into it.

I loved Fenyx Rising too. It has a great mix of puzzles and combat, a fun open world, lots of exploration, and just a lot of charm. It's Ubisoft's attempt at a Breath of the Wild, so it has a lot of the same design ideas, but because it's Ubisoft there's also a lot of needless collecting for upgrades etc.

It's just a fairly fun, relaxing times, with some decent enough puzzles and challenges mixed in.

CastorTroy · 12-12-2023 10:42PM

That's the main game and its DLC combined. So main story and a load of side quests for each.

Was just an enjoyable open world game. Was compared to Breath of the Wild at release as if some kind of criticism.

The game was pretty light and cheerful as well.

Zero-Cool · 12-12-2023 10:42PM

PS Stars - another 50 points up for grabs. Play any of these games from ps plus.

MikeRyan87 · 13-12-2023 01:02AM

1237 hours

143 games/ 1551 trophies

Used an alot of the Premium stuff like Trials so maybe that's why game count is so high.

MWII, CP2077, ME3, FFXVI and SW Jedi Survivor highest hours count.

EoinMcLovin · 13-12-2023 01:10AM

521 hours - Fortnite 130 hours, Final Fantasy XVI 55 hours, Hogwarts Legacy 54 hours, Dead Island 2 45 hours, Star Wars Jedi Survivor 37 hours

48 games - 98.27% of game time on 39 Ps5 games, 1.73% on 9PS4 games

324 trophies - 1 platinum, 12 gold, 56 silver, 255 bronze

DaveyDave · 13-12-2023 03:52AM

It looks like my numbers are off. 100 hours is so much lower than everyone else considering my PS5 is my main console and it's my main hobby. I played a lot of multiplayer bots in Modern Warfare Remastered and it didn't make 5th place at 7hrs. Looking at the monthly breakdown it's only showing 1-2 hours of Gran Turismo each month up until Armored Core came out. No way that's accurate. I easily put an hour or two in a single day messing around in MW and several hours in a week. Oh well!

Also just realised I replayed RDR2, which is a 40 hour story!

MikeRyan87 · 13-12-2023 02:53PM

I think some of the counters are messed up alright.

Some games definitely seems to count when left on pause.

Started GoW Ragnarok Vahalla free DLC last night and it's way better than expected. Has way more story than I thought it would.

Markitron · 14-12-2023 10:21AM

Mine was 533 hours, mostly on Jedi Survivor on 73 hours, when you average it out it seems a bit on the low side.
