Good afternoon everyone, I hope you all had a smashing weekend! I got quite a few hours of gaming in over the weekend which were split across Borderlands 2, Black Ops 4, Battlefield V and Pokémon Go! Its also looking to continue into this week as I have a few empty days that I intend to fill with more games! I'm hoping to finish Borderlands 2 this week and maybe start a new game, ill update you with how that goes in next weeks discussion! Looking at gaming news from the weekend, there’s a new Rabbids game launching in China which looks kind of fun, bit of a shame that it apparently won’t be coming to the UK but I’m sure we wont be missing out on that much. Also coming in this morning are reports that a Swedish site listed the PS5 available for pre-order with a price of 9999 Swedish Krona which equates to around £850. This is interesting for several reasons, firstly Sony haven’t actually confirmed the naming of their next system although it is very, very likely that it will be called the PS5 but could this mean that we are near to some more information being dropped or perhaps even a reveal? Secondly, that price tag is very high, some £300 more than the most expensive console we have seen so surely its just a placeholder, I can’t see many people dropping £850 on a new system when the current generation pretty much tick all the boxes already! Let me know what you think of this down in the comments below!

Discussion Topic: What is your favourite gaming controller of all time?

Georges Answer: This question will probably be quite difficult to answer for some people but for me, its simple. The Dualshock 4 is by far and away my favourite controller, it fits my hands really well and it just works, simple. Second place would probably go to the Xbox One controller as it feels rugged and the triggers feel amazing even compared to the DS4 and especially the DS3 and 360 Controller!

Out This Week

Age of Wonders: Planetfall – PS4, Xbox One – August 6^th

Qge of Wonders: Planetfall, players will explore the remnants of the Star Union, once a vast empire connecting thousands of worlds, but its people have been left isolated and stranded following the Collapse. Hundreds of years later, separation has turned siblings into divergent factions, out to rebuild the world as they see fit. Emerge from the cosmic dark age of a fallen galactic empire to build a new future. Build an empire with one of six unique factions, ranging from the militant Vanguard to the dinosaur-riding Amazons and the cyborg-zombies of the Assembly. Progress through each faction?s missions using wits, military strength and diplomacy, exploring planetary ruins and encountering other survivors as the history of a shattered civilization unravels. Fight, build, negotiate and technologically advance a path to utopia in a deep single player campaign, on random skirmish maps, and against friends in multiplayer.

There we have it then, another week flies by but don’t worry, we’ve still got plenty of content coming your way as we get ever closer to Gamescom! Stick around for the chart and keep an eye out for gaming news throughout the week, have a good one!
