Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? – Issue 590

Will the intense heat ever cool down? Lately, it seems as if our DualSense controllers are almost liquefying due to the scorching temperatures. Yet, we’re looking forward to a relaxing gaming weekend with these upcoming titles:

1. “The heat wave shows no signs of letting up. Our DualSense controllers seem as if they’ve turned into molten plastic in our hands lately. Regardless, we’ll be massaging our thumbs this weekend and diving into the following games.”

2. “Can’t escape this sweltering heat! Our DualSense has been feeling more like a pool of lava in our hands recently. But, come what may, we’re gearing up for a gaming marathon with these upcoming titles.”

3. “The thermometer is shooting through the roof, and it’s like holding a hot potato instead of a DualSense controller these days. However, we won’t let the heat deter us from enjoying our weekend gaming sessions with these games.”

Over the coming weekend, I plan on alternating between exploring the latest Destiny 2 expansion, Edge of Fate, and completing RoboCop: Rogue City’s Unfinished Business.

I’m going to fire up Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed on my PS Vita to pass the time before Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds. SASRT is an exciting kart racer where I can race as Joe Musashi, dodge bees from a Swarm item, and race on a sunny OutRun Bay track! It’s simply fantastic, courtesy of SEGA!

I plan on diving deep into Donkey Kong Bananza and then shifting gears for a bit with my small work project in Gears of War.

This weekend, I plan to finish up some reviews and then focus on parts of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 that catch my attention. For a moment, I contemplated purchasing the Platinum version, but with such a large pile of unfinished work, I believe it’s time for me to wind down soon.

It seems I’m ready to embark on Death Stranding 2: On the Beach at last. The first game grew on me over time, but I must admit my memory of its storyline is a bit hazy. However, I’m confident everything will fall into place as I play—I’m mainly looking forward to those rewarding delivery missions!
