Hotshot Racing Fun arcade-drifting-racer. A little light on content, so if I hadn't gone for the trophies I would've thought it was a bit lacking. But most of the trophies were fun and quite a challenge. What I didn't enjoy was the grind for the last two trophies in the end. But that's my own fault for going for these Anyway, mostly had fun and PS+ Mega Ultra Chicken Edition keeps on giving.

I was interested in this just to see some multiplat 3rd party titles, but then I noticed "Partner" in the title. So...have fun, people. I'm out

Sooooo...this won't be as...well...naugthy as the anime was? You know what I mean...

Good to know. Wanted to give it a go today, but I may hold off on it. If I enjoy it and wanna go for the Platinum...don't have time for a grindy trophy thanks to Hotshot Racing. Holy hell, the grind is real. I had to finish a GP with every car (32 - I've done that yesterday) and I'm not even close to the end of the grind. There's challenges for every car (they're all the same) and you need to acquire a lot of money to buy all the cosmetics. Got today off, but I doubt I'll be able to finish it Don't remind me. Thanks to PS+ Ultra Mega Super Edition, Nexomon: Extinction has left my PS5 main screen

Why not, it's an easy 1 hour Platinum DO IT! I can't be arsed to do that, though. One-and-done

Gotta agree with you: It's a fantastic puzzle game. Well worth your time

Just played the first stage and I thought: "This is gonna turn into a Star Wars game any minute" The soundtrack is waaaayyy too epic for a game like this

Been talking about my childhood/teenage summers with one of my oldest friends recently, and we actually remembered that we didn't play a lot of games in the summer times back then. We just...went outside, played basketball, went for a swim, rode our bikes And when we did play video games, it was either Super Smash Bros Melee, Diablo 2 LoD or CS 1.6 for most of these years. But if I had to choose one of my summer games from back then...it's probably: Played this to death. I remember pre-ordering this in a local store...I guess this was my first pre-order ever. We got a call once it was available for pickup and I nagged my dad to pick it up that day (I wasn't 16, yet, then). He just came back from work and was not pleased. But because he was a good dude, he picked it up for me That was my summer sorted. So yeah...there are really no "summery" games for me. I just play whatever I feel like

All caught up and holy shit, Season 4 is on a different level. The "ending" was masterfully executed. Can't wait to see how it'll end with volume II (which apparently has only two episodes, but they will run at a total of 3 1/2 hours) on Friday. Yeah, I'm not gonna socialize that night

@Hero-of-Time I guess it's time to give the Crash 4 Platinum a try Oh and, Arcadegeddon? Always been interested in it, but not the Early Access. The PS+ release comes at a perfect time, as it is set to get its full release soon. Anyways, it's a rumour but basically 99% real, 'cause the leaker is the real deal And if it's real, it's a hell of a month

Just gave the Extreme GPs another go and what do you know...first try. Being sober makes all the difference

Don't go back. It's a game you either love or hate. And you seem to hate it, so move on.

Yeah, 90% of the corners require drifting, and you need to drift to gain boost. On Expert that is mandatory. And you need to use your boost strategically. It's not that easy. But I like drifting in games, which is why I'm having fun. I guess the game's not for you, then, as it relies heavily on drifting. Edit: I'm just gonna say "drifting" again: DRIFTING!

I'm inebriated, so take this with a grain of salt (to the Tequila), but I like it. Been going for the most difficult trophies (that is win all 4 GPs on the hardest difficulty and win a GP on the hardest difficulty with all drivers) these last two hours and when I was 100% sober, it wasn't too bad. I actually liked the rubber banding. It made for some pretty intense racing and finishes. Now...not so much. I still need to win with three drivers and I cannot for the life of me get it done. Much to the amusement of my friends sitting next to me I don't know what it's like on lower difficulties, but as it stands now: I thoroughly enjoy it. The driving/drifting is perfect.

Don't drink and drive, people. My performance on Hotshot Racing has declined rapidly in the last two hours.

If I may interject: I'm a wuss when it comes to the horror genre, but I had no problems with both TLoU games. A few shock moments here and there, but they are really not that intense. It is creepy, though. Some sections get very tense.

Oh nooooo, the clunkiness will probably annoy me a bit when I start my Ape Escape journey later today

First game with the new PS+ sub: Minit Short, old-school Zelda-style adventure with a 60 second time loop. A solid 7/10.

Fair enough. But it would be worth it, if the service just had 3-4 games you haven't played, yet, which would cost 15-20 bucks each You can't tell me you've played all of those

Personally, I don't give a shit, but the people complaining should be pleased.

Will you stay subscribed to Essential? If so, wouldn't it make sense to upgrade to Extra for 40 bucks more a year? And depending on the classic PS1 games coming at certain times, upgrade to Premium for a tenner that particular month? I know you prefer actually buying games, same as I, but there's no denying that it's ridiculous value given the amount of games on the service.

Classics: Ape Escape Syphon Filter Wild Arms Probably going to play Ape Escape first. And when I'm done with that and Nexomon: Extinction (so probably in a few weeks ) there's gonna be something from the list I made: Assassin’s Creed Valhalla Balan Wonderworld Chocobo’s Mystery Dungeon EVERY BUDDY! Concrete Genie Cris Tales Death Stranding: Director's Cut Final Fantasy XII The Zodiac Age Ghostrunner Killzone Shadowfall (+ Intercept) The Wonderful 101: Remastered South Park: The Stick of Truth South Park: The Fractured but Whole Hotshot Racing Indivisible Minit Saints Row: The Third Remastered Greedfall Got enough to try out the service until January and decide probably in November/December whether I'm going Extra or Premium

Bought it, played it for a few minutes and it already improves so much on the first game. It's great

Having one will be even better
