Before Xmas you could buy and Xbox series x from Spain for 465 Euros now you have to add 80 Euros tax! Wow that’s a game changer, certainly means stuff over here will cost more if you can get one.

Just dusted off the old PS3 from the loft to give the kids something to play with during lockdown. It's still a great piece of kit, even after the update i had to install, the menus are snappy even though games take a while to download and install (but the new ones do as well, i think..not had another console since). Just downloading Minecraft for them now.

I got to the end of CyberPunk for my character, V. Does anyone know if you get to play as a different storyline if you choose one of the other roles at the start? I remember it asked me if i wanted to be in the city, the desert, or another option i forget.
There are multiple endings for V, the first one i had was a bit dis-satisfying so i'm currently trying again with other options. Apparently it all depends on what you choose in certain conversations, and there are possibly as many as 6 or 7 different endings.

I think the first part of the game plays different depending on your character background choice, maybe some further interactions during the story too, but many of the available quests and storylines are similar if not identical.

Decided to address my PS4 backlog a little, started with The Order 1886 to get 35gb off my hard drive. It's a decent 3rd party shooter but I can see why it's getting a sequel and I'm quite pleased about it, the world is rich with lore and includes airships, Victorian England, vampires, warewolves, knights of the order, the grail and immortality.

If anyone fancies some Battlefield V on PC tonight let me know

Im on a bit of a Battlefield withdrawal at the minute. Miss the nights of being on conquest with my mates until 2 in the morning fucking about on objectives. BF6 needs to hurry up.

Decided to download Resident Evil 7 off Game Pass and its absolutely terrifying. Only a couple hours in so far but it's excellent and gripping. Not to mention gory as fuck.

I'm playing now, nearly 30 hours in. It's fascinating. The graphics are the best I've ever seen but it's confusing sometimes. It almost makes GTA V look 2d

Oh i see. I'm currently just trying to get to each version of the ending, apparently it's all down to the choice you make in one setup scene alone so you just need to load from that save point every time.

I've pretty much stuck to the story and only done side quests if i need money to do something in the story. Story will explain itself as you get through it.
