Excellent choice!

I've enjoyed the whole series up to this point but the original is my favorite. Such a unique setting with a creepy atmosphere and fun gameplay. Cant wait to see what Ken and his team have for us next!

I haven't got a chance to play either yet but I hope the rumors of Soul Reaver Remastered are true. I would love to try it out

You should give it a chance if you have any time during this amazing year of releases lol.

Its on PS+ Extra and holds up really well. I believe they kept all of the original voice acting so its mainly a gameplay and graphics update.

The original blocky PS1 version is also playable in the remaster if you complete all 19 Souls Challenges.

I'll start with a (slightly) controversial pick in the PlayStation community.

MediEvil Resurrection.

When I was a kid, I was surprised with a PSP for my birthday. I had wanted one to play the new ratchet and clank that was announced at the time. Little did I know that the game my parents bundled in for me would go on to be one of my favorites on the system. I had never heard of the series before so I didnt have any complaints about Resurrection like old time fans did.

After playing and loving the Original's Remaster on PS4 im excited to see if Resurrection holds up now that its playable on PS4/5.

Coming to PS+ Extra and Premium at launch too!

For Ps2 you easily need to try out the Holy Trinity of platformers

Ratchet & Clank 1-4

Jak and Daxter 1-X

Sly Cooper 1-3

All great for different reasons and surprisingly good stories for platformers with Sly being the deepest.

Im in a weird funk right now and its spread into my gaming.

I completed the main story of Control but am taking a quick break before doing the dlc.

Saw Far Cry 5 is being removed from ps+ extra so i've jumped into that for some mindless action. Mostly skipping all the side dialogue but the main story is pretty interesting. Not too many games deal with religion so im always interested in how each one handles it.

At the moment i'm on track to get an easy plat, at least as long as I can find a coop partner for a few trophies.

Havent played the game (yet) so I cant comment on quality but price-wise gamefly has had it for $40 a few times and comes in great condition. Otherwise I think it will be in that $35-40 range come black friday.

Incase you weren't aware any Free To Play game on PSN (Fortnite, Warzone, Rocket League, Apex, etc.) can be played online without needing ps+

This price increase is insane but at least in your case you can continue playing Fortnite

I joined them with Saints Row 3 back in the day and enjoyed 4/GOH.

I even played AND platinumed Agents of Mayhem (Depression can make you do weird things man)

But my favorite game from them will always be Red Faction Guerilla. To this day the destruction in that game still hasnt been rivaled in the AAA console market (if it has please point me in the right direction).

The gameplay was simple but the destruction added so much fun to it. Even the multiplayer had some crazy moments only possible due to those physics. I even got to the Ostrich Hammer playing in the og xbox 360 lobbies.

RIP Volition, I wish every employee the best

Paprika 3 Recipe Manager

Its a one time fee per platform ($5 for ios, ~$20 for macos, $5 for android, and ~$20 for windows) that shares recipes across platforms you're signed into.

It also downloads and formats recipes from websites so you dont need to copy and paste and reformats if you're sharing it with somebody who doesn't have the app.

When it comes to recipe apps i've found very few that are pay once or truly free. Most are free trials with limited recipe spots available.

$10 on PSN

Includes original expansions and a new one

Quake 64 included
