Nothing bought yet for me either

Backlog started - Resident Evil Village, Little Nightmares 2, The Long Reach, Dirt 5 (both PS4 and PS5 versions) and Uncharted Lost Legacy all completed with Platinum achieved.  Outlast Insane run finally done

Cyberpunk 2077 resumed with aim of getting the Platinum

First purchase probably Uncharted Thieves Collection on PS5 at the end of the month

Apologies if this has already been asked a thousand times, but could anyone please point me in the direction of a wall plug thing I can use to charge PS5 controllers and headsets. The information I can find is that 5v 2a ones should be fine, but then other people are saying some work and some don't.

 

I've been doing it by plugging into the front of the console but putting the cable in and then taking it out again over and over can't be any good for the connector on the console I wouldn't have thought.

 

Ideally from Amazon if possible so I can get one delivered tomorrow. Many thanks.

I used an Apple one without issues before I got the charging dock

I've not even looked at Gamepass, I am subbed for 2 years due to All Access but haven't even switched the Xbox on since redeeming the code on my lads Series X.  PS5 mainly for me

Started my backlog today with Doom Eternal

Im using a caveat too, any Credit I had in my wallet before the year started is free to spend without it impacting on the 12 games being bought this year.

Any credit added to the wallet either by purchasing it or refunds this year is included in the 12 games to buy challenge

I have cancelled Sifu (or requested it) so thats 1 game off the list for now

Hoping a few good titles come to PS+ or the new service

Plenty of games to play through whilst waiting for the titles I want to arrive

So Sifu is out 2 weeks earlier now, that means I may not cancel it, although I can see it being one of Sonys titles on what ever the new service is

I had considered that too, but Im keeping it.  Got the PS4 version preordered for the free PS5 upgrade

This and Elden Ring will take up all my gaming time as I intend to platinum both of them

Sifu is getting cancelled as soon as Sony open their email up again for requests

Yep, this is also very true. Another good rule is to not buy any game that you don't plan on playing immediately, or within the next week at the very most.

 

I've bought plenty of games on sale that I've just never got round to playing because that spark of interest has gone. Sales and bargains can quickly lead to game 'stockpiling', which is the true enemy.

This is the reason why I am thinking about cancelling Sifu, Horizon out a few days before and Elden Ring a few days after.  Its not going to get a look in is it

Maybe DLC for the original 😜

@DarkCrisis Are you buying the Uncharted PS5 upgrades as a new game or are you doing the £10 update?

 

Trying to figure out if this counts as my first purchase of the year or not. 🤔

 

 

 

Im doing the £10 update

I will try to participate, but not sure how long it will be before I hit the limit

Already paid for the below

January - Uncharted 4 / Lost Legacy Remastered PS5

February - Horizon Forbidden West, Sifu (although may cancel it), Elden Ring

March - GT7

The new Salt and Sacrifice game is on the buy list

God of War 2 and Silksong will be bought if they are released in 22

BotW2 should be a gift as my eldest lad will be playing it so he can buy this one

Not sure what else is likely to hit 22 that I am after but we will see

Do games already pre ordered and paid for count in the 12?

Got 5 titles already paid for before the end of March

I put a Firecuda 530 in mine.  Really impressed with it so far

I got one on  Monday via All Access from Game, ordered on Friday and arrived on Monday

It appears that if they allow you to sign up then there is stock to send

Finally taken the plunge and ordered a SSD to extend the storage.  Went for a Firecuda 530 with built in heatsink

Just taken delivery of my All Access Series X from Game.  Was going to keep it for myself but have decided that I am giving it to my eldest lad for Xmas.  He has wanted one for a while but cant afford one due to being on apprentice wages

If I want to make sure I can use the Ultimate I have to set my account as the home console and just add his to the series x. Then I add my account to his One X and use that with the full benefits

Does that make it so that both he and I have full access to the 2 year Ultimate subscription?

Been out of the Xbox loop for a while

It looks like Game have stock via All Access too, Ive just ordered one but dont seem to have a delivery date

I have also regrabbed it for PS4 / 5.  Even if I don't resume my initial playthough, I will do once the PS5 upgrade is out

This is good, got the first major soul.

Really tempted to get the SRG switch version, but its around £42.  Quite a hike from the digital price

Tempted by that myself for Switch too

Anyone seen any deals on internal ssd

I’m not sure what I should be looking for

Samsung 980 1TB PCIe 3.0 NVMe M.2 is that compatable

Was hoping this would have arrived yesterday before I went away. 
 

Shopto or more likely RM let me down

Still hopefully will be waiting for me when I get home tomorrow

I normally don't like Open World games as I find the traversal boring, but for this I don't mind at all.  Don't care how long it takes I will get the Platinum trophy

Wonder if there will be an official guide

Just pre ordered the standard edition from the PS Store, £43 via Shopto PSN Credit

I need this now

Booking the Friday and Monday off work for sure

I don’t - I’ll be honest, I didn’t really like it, so at the point where it changes pace I’d already decided to sack it off, and therefore I don’t know how the play style develops after that, but it had already long overstayed its welcome by that point. 

Not sure I am enjoying it, seems very very platformy at the moment.  Will stick with it for a while longer to see if it changes
