For some time now, series about the pre-end of the world time is becoming more and more popular, this is the case with "The Handmaid's Tales" it has a perfect image design, characters with a perfectly defined background, and the ability to represent a totally possible pre-apocalyptic world. It has it all. Any other series with these features?

Anyone play elden ring? Is it as good as the reviews say?

PS5 Owner here, looking for my next title until God Of War comes out.

My favorite genre is action adventure, I particularly loved Horizon 1 + 2, Last of us 1 + 2, God of War, Jedi Fallen Order.

I also enjoy some RPGs, I thought elden ring was okay but have previously enjoyed the fallout games.

none of my bros showed up to play Overwatch 2 with me. I'm pretty upset 😔

Waiting for God of War and for Bungie to grab Halo back from 343 Industries since Destiny has always been trash.
. . .S/O to Horizon Zero Dawn though.

Overwatch on Xbox anyone?

Does anyone still play StarCraft?

Weekly Hot take, the lack of couch Co-op is the reason gaming doesn't feel like it hits the same. I miss the days of bringing over the crew to play a game that isn't smash bros. One of my best memories is playing Tower fall with my college friends in my dorm.
