Still playing RDR2 Online. It's a bit addictive as there are daily challenges and role challenges like find some collectibles, sell some moonshine, tranquilise a legendary animal or sell some animals.
I'm on a streak where you get 2.5x gold for each challenge done.
It's a bit of a time sink.
Yesterday, I went to a shop in Strawberry, photographed a cat, took a selfie, picked some thyme, caught a pike, didn't kill an animal for 24 hours, donated a dangerous animal carcass and started a wildlife photography competition.
It crashed in the middle of the competition and took the opportunity to bail and watch a film as I was up past 1am completing all the challenges the other night.
It's getting to the point where I know it's repetitive, but it's quite a soothing gaming session, mooching around.
That is until some basts see you trying to deliver some moonshine, kill you and steal your stuff.
They kept killing me as I was outnumbered by higher-level players, but after they'd delivered my stolen wagon, I managed to snipe one from a mile away in revenge.

Finished my new play through of Just Cause 3. Then I spent about two hours on the Playstation store trying to find something new to play but absolutely nothing took my fancy. (Spiderman as I've never played it, but I'm not paying £35 for it). So I ended up doing something that I've only ever done once before that I can remember in all my years of gaming, I bought the expansion packs for Just Cause 3. It's the game that just keeps on giving.

Nintendo Switch
Starting The Wonderful 101, not sure I want to replay it but giving it a go. I am enjoying the soundtrack a lot this time though.
PC
Nothing at the moment, there's plenty installed but I paused because of PS5
PlayStation 5
Despite what I said, Astro's Playroom. I think Miles Morales, Sackboy and COD will be next as they're all fairly short games with high resell value

RDR2 Online - I think its days are numbered. I've played it 40 days straight or something. Every time I boot it I get sucked into the daily tasks, but although soothing, it's just a loop that's getting repetitive.
Spider-Man - envy of PS5 peeps made me install this, which my friend recently loaned me.
It's a strange mix of the Arkham games and LEGO Marvel Superheroes, both of which I love.
They've nailed the web slinging! I'm already getting addicted to finding all the packs.
Holy smokes, it's stunning!
Crisis VRigade 1 & 2. More in the PSVR thread, but this is like the Police 24/7 arcade. Amazing until the tracking goes.
Everyone's Gone to the Rapture - had a whim to replay this as it's such a great experience. Not as effective as the first play, but still impressive.

I was very kindly given a copy of Spider-Man from @neoboy259 after posting a want to buy thread for it. Arrived today and good fun so far, and a lovely looking game as El Chimpo said above. Makes the Doom Eternal regret even greater, but i was REALLY bored yesterday!
Was nice to see
Stan Lee

Need for Speed Heat! Yes what? Unreal. I've looked down at EA's flagging racing series for years but what the heck its on Gamepass and like Colin above the likes of Doom Eternal lasted 15 mins and I was done im too old and arthritic for it.
Need for Speed Heat tho yeah! It's great, the night time sections look a million dollars kinda like the night tracks from RR7, the music is horrendous but the open world is cool. If you like Burnout Paradise you will be at home here, big surprise it's excellent in a familiar way.
