   Doing some multiplayer with the lads this weekend. Monopoly, Borderlands 2, Until Dawn etc.

   Other than that, I finished Mirror’s Edge Catalyst (love it!) and am now doing side missions, collectibles and dashes (time trials).

   Brushing up on my Mahjong with a mobile app.

   Grinding spouses in Dynasty Warriors Next (about 20-30 to go).

   The weekend is a wonderful time to catch up with friends. But does that mean you can’t squeeze in some gaming at the same time?I thought they were one and the same. It’s always fun to spend a weekend palling around with Mario, Lara, Jak, Dante, etc.

   This weekend I’ll be mostly working on Diablo 3 seasonal goals though I have some demos to catch up on so I may spend some time with those instead.

         Went with Necromancer as I had a lot of fun playing one the season they first came out. Corpse lance absolutely wrecks everything and stacking health drain abilities and runes means you can heal tank quite effectively.

   I’m about 3-4 missions into Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. I was a bit apprehensive at first as I thought the first level was horrible and the corny Japanese style cut scenes aren’t really to my liking. Once I finally got through all the intro’s and into the meat of the game, I’m now starting to enjoy it.

   Also just picked up Forza Horizon 3 to play with my mates online, which is quite a bit of fun. It looks stunning in 4k on my Xbox One X.

   Apart from those 2 games, I might play a bit of Lego: Star Wars with my boy.

         Sorry, it is Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, not Ground Zeroes.

   Grabbed Splatoon 2 last weekend. It’ll be my jam for a while, before I get stuck back into BotW.

    South Park – The Fractured But Whole is on sale in the Switch Eshop, so I guess it’s time to spend those gold coins I’ve been saving. ^^

    Gotta grind up some levels in Battle Chasers so I can keep streaming it next week.

    Also likely to spend time with World of Warcraft as it’s having a free weekend where you can play unrestricted if you ever had a subscription in the past.

    I will continue playing thru Mario and Rabids on Switch, the game is still charming the pants off of me. The colour, the stupid humour, the weapons – I love it all. Sometimes the % on shots or angles of attack seem off somehow, but likely that’s probably just my perception cos I’m a bit shit at these sort of games generally!

    When I get tired of the turn based shooty, I’ll switch ( get it ? ), over to Hollow Knight which I bought – for a genuinely reasonable fee might I add, for once – as soon as I heard the e3 announcement that the port was finally ready. I think it’s great but have gotten a little lost in some mushroom caves after beating the first two bosses and don’t even know if it’s where I should be…it’s all quite Dark Souls really.

    And then I’ll probably play more of Destiny 2 more than either of those even though I won’t intend to. But my brother always pulls me back into it for expansions as it’s all he has the time to play some of each week. And warmind has got some decent meat on its bones this time, relatively speaking, and once you factor in the mostly all positive tweaks made to the general game play , the exotic weapons, the strike difficulty etc. it just feels pretty good to play right now. Bungie are dodgy as fuck, but I can’t argue with the amount of hours i have derived from their products.
