Victory! The annoying Hunting Trials bug has been resolved! As I ended up expecting, I had to go to the main lodge, get the main quest there, activate that quest as I did the trials, and now I finally have all the Blazing Suns for the hunting grounds I was having the issue with. Cheers again for the tip @Map it was great help! 36 hours in now, and I've only just climbed all the Tallnecks and have done all the Cauldrons. Only got a few collectibles left before I have the lot too. Progression seems to be going quite quickly now! Still, I can't believe how massive this game is, I reckon I could easily take at least another 10 hours on it.

Apologies for not getting back to you sooner, I've not had much time to play this recently, things have been pretty busy! Thanks for the ideas, but sadly none of them worked. I've got to Meridian now, and I've talked to the woman at the shop to activate the main quest, so maybe that will fix it? I'll keep you posted. Thanks again anyway though! Speaking on Meridian, it's such an amazing location, I love how diverse the game is in terms of environments. I'm just over 30 hours in now, and I still feel like I have tons to do! This game really just keeps on giving!

I've reached the 24 hour mark in this game now, and I'm loving every minute of it! The world and the lore surrounding it are brilliant, and the gameplay is fantastic! However, I may have come across a bug... I definitely managed to get all the Blazing Suns from the Valleymeet Hunting Trails, but my quest info was showing that I had yet to complete 2/3 them, with only one marked as completed. So I decided to go back, to make sure. Upon definitely being within the time limit for a Blazing Sun, the game still doesn't appear to give it to me. Anyone else come across this? I'm stumped.

Got this on release, played it, completed it... and I love it! It's definitely a return to form, and easily one of my favourite instalments in the RE series. All the little homages and references to the previous games are great, and it really don't feel forced, it's certainly worthy of the "Resident Evil" title. For me personally, it feels like the perfect mix of 1 and 4, with some elements that are fresh for the series being blended in. Oh, and I've recorded it all for a let's play. Here's part 1 if anyones interested... #shamelessplug

It's not particularly a gaming diary as such, but I've made a post of my favourite games of 2016 on my blog, Epitome of Epic: https://goo.gl/cDiCCw I'm going to follow it up with some other 2016 stuff too, so I'll update as and when!

I didn't get to play tons of the beta, but it was pretty fun! I really sucked at it though. And for the most random news you'll hear all day, Lewis Hamilton is going to be in the single player campaign: https://www.vg247.com/2016/10/19/f1-champion-lewis-hamilton-will-appear-in-call-of-duty-infinite-warfare/ ....I don't even.

Thanks again for the code @drahkon

Oooh, if you still have any going, that would be grand. Cheers.

So, I completed this a few days ago, but I haven't had time to post my thoughts until today...

So I'm potentially going to have to shoot Jon Snow in the face? Do not want!!! D:

*Jaw hits floor* HOLY SHIT, I NEED THAT IN MY LIFE!!!!!! EDIT: So it seems the Collector's Edition isn't coming to Europe. Balls. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2016-09-13-segas-brilliant-sonic-mania-collectors-edition-isnt-coming-to-europe

I have a feeling that the lack of a 4K blu-ray disc drive is going to put a lot of people off. I already know someone who is already considering the XBox One S over the PS4 Pro because of it. You'd think Sony would've added one, considering their massive push for 4K...

That seems like a massive oversight, if that's the case...

They could probably easily undercut them even more by then! Still not 100% sure on the design though... Although the design of the console begs one question... how the hell do we upgrade the hard drive?

Definitely! It's perfect for anyone who hasn't got a PS4 yet!
