Everything Video Games!

I hit credits on the Phantom Liberty DLC for Cyberpunk. Very, very good. CDPR really put in the work to develop a meaty plot line with nuanced dilemmas — no decision black/white only gray and complicated. I think I spent 25–30 hours devoted almost entirely to the DLC content with plenty of optional stuff left. Now, I have to decide how I want to approach my second encounter with Arasaka, though I've got plenty of game left to do before pursuing that closure. So glad this game turned things around in the end. Top tier gaming.
 
I've had a PS5 sitting in the closet for about a month now (for my son/the whole family for Christmas). To get ready I've created a Sony account and added some of the free games (like Fortnite, Overwatch, Marvel Rivals) that I know he wants. Is there anything else I should do before unwrapping to prepare?

I would consider unwrapping it and doing all the updates to the machine and the controllers and install the games. That will take quite some time depending on your internet connection.

Other thank that, I can't think of anything! Enjoy!
 
Just cot around to watching the Cinematic Reveal trailer for The Witcher IV. I can't wait for this game to come put. Do we have any thoughts on when it might come out?

Googling it I have found no confirmed release date, but a lot of article speculate a time range of 2026 through 2029. So I guess, no time soon.

Pretty sure CDPR are going to tread cautiously with release info after lessons learned from their Cyberpunk 2077 release.

So 2077 probably?
 
Speaking of the Witcher.

I have The Witcher III for the Switch. It includes all the expansions. I have yet to play through the whole thing and want to start over. I'm wondering if I should get it for the PlayStation this time around. And so they sell a complete edition, or do I need to buy each expansion separately like the last time I looked a couple years ago?

Witcher 3: WIld Hunt Complete with both expansions and all the other free extras is $10 on Playstation until 1/7
 
Super frustrating- after doing all the setting up and installing, I'm going to have to return this new PS5 for an exchange. When it goes into rest mode and the orange light turns on it makes a loud screeching noise (sounds like bad tinnitus). When the light pulses, the screech matches its intensity, then after a few minutes it goes from loud screech to quieter screech, but stays there.
 
Been playing my hand at Mullet Mad Jack.

It rewards (read: requires) quick movement a la Doom (2016) and Doom Eternal with a retro vibe. Not too deep of a story but fun as a fast-paced brain drain rinse 'n repeat.
 
Got an EX card basically every other pack the last few days. Cynic in me thinks they are trying to get all that Christmas money with higher drop rates of good cards.
 
Meanwhile, TCGP is Ebenezer Scrooging me. :ROFLMAO:
Same, I got a Pigeot EX from one of the event packs, and other than that it's been pure garbage pulls. Was going to say I also haven't seen a 3 stamina wonder pick in days, but I just checked and there's like 5 (none of which I want of course). Speaking of WP, anyone actually pulled a good card this way lately? Feel like my lucks been especially bad there, but in particular I've tried 11 times since I started playing on the full art Dragonite and have yet to get it.

I think the game knows I'm not going to spend money on it so it's giving me intentional crap.

I've had 6 rare picks offered to me in all of the mass breakout event. Eked out enough wonder pick stamina to pull on 4 of them. No Zapdos Ex, and the breakout is over tomorrow.

My booster pulls have netted me like 5 Pigeot Exes and fuck-all else. At least I have plenty of Pigeots to trade when that opens in Jan sometime?

I've only been offered 2 rare picks, no Zapdos Ex on either. Looking forward to the trading though.
