IGN just posted up the review of Uncharted 3, it got a perfect ten out of ten on everything and over all score of ten. Can't wait for this game .

I recently purchased Dishonored for my old PS3 console.
£4 for the GOTY edition and absolutely had a blast playing it.
Amazing game!
Completed the main story campaign, last night and got the "Good ending."
I'm playing the various DLC, today and buying Dishonoured 2 for the bargain price of £8 from Game, later on.

Anyone else played this series?

The original Dishonored was one of my favourite games on the PS3 & I got round to completing Dishonored 2 early last year & thought it was a great sequal where you get to play as either Carvo from the original game or his daughter Emily.
I completed the game with Emily (& will go back in a few months or so & complete it with Carvo) who has cool special abilities like teleportation & invisibility.

There is a Standalone DLC game Dishonored;Death of the Outsider which is set after the events of Dishonored 2 where you get to play Billie Lurk/Megan Foster who was an ally of Carvo & Emily in the previous games.The gameplay is about 7-8 hours long & cost just under a tenner (it is currently in the pile of my backlog of games I've yet to play).

The makers of 'The Dishonored Games' Arkane Studio's also made the game 'Prey' which has the similar cel-shaded graphics as The Dishonored games & it does feel very similar in play style as well (in the 2 hours I've played of the game).

I played the first on PC. keep meaning to get the 2nd is there again no multiplayer on it i found it refreshing along with Wolfenstein games that was never multiplayer on them

Both Dishonored 2 is £7.99 and Death Of The Outsider, for £9.99, both at Game.
I purchased both for around £13.50 in total, today, due to their perfectly timed, 25% off pre-owened titles, sale!
They'll be keeping me entertained during my, perfectly timed, week off work

Oh, by the way, I bought my nephew a great gift at Game, too. £3 for a Gears Of War 4 t-shirt. He's well into that franchise and it's well worth keeping an eye on their clothing range for novelty gift bargains & stocking fillers.

Been playing lots of metroidvania game, Hollow Knight via Xbox Game Pass this week.
Only £1 for the first month's subscription. Bargain!
   
Although some of the boss fights are almost punishingly difficult at times, the vast and brilliantly designed world has been a pleasure to explore.
The controls and various fighting/magic casting abilities are brilliant.

Completely stuck on the very last boss battle presently, but have been amazed to learn on youtube that there are whole levels of the game that I haven't even gotten around to discovering yet, so there may just be upgrades out there that will help me defeat this mutha fooker !!!!

The sequel, Silksong is released on June 12th 2020 and I am very much looking forward to playing it.

   

Have just pre-ordered Space Marine 2: Gold Edition which comes out on 6th September. Looks to be even better than the fantastic Space Marin

Plus I'm a massive Warhammer 40,000 fan which is why I'm very excited

Pre ordered the Nintendo Switch 2 with the Mario Kart World Bundle fingers crossed it turns up June and will be doing a unboxing on my YouTube Channel

What was the one arcade game in the 80's that you enjoyed playing the most and the one that frustrated you the most?
