Cross Roads Weekend Gaming: What are We Playing?

For many gamers out there, this is a holiday weekend but, let’s be honest, gaming never takes time off. There are plenty of games that the crew is circling back to this weekend as everyone enjoys another slow week of releases.

I’ve had Deathloop on my list for quite some time now and I finally grabbed it thanks to a PC sale that put it over half off (courtesy of Green Man Gaming). I really suck at first-person shooters but this game offers so much that I couldn’t pass it up. I’ll talk more about it on the new episode of Cross Roads so stay tuned!

I’ll also be answering the call from some buddies to play tackle some quests on Monster Hunter Rise. A lot of people complain about doing “community service work” by helping people make levels but, for me, any excuse to play Monster Hunter is always a good excuse. Have fun and Happy Easter!

I’m back to playing Cyberpunk 2077 again. Man, when you stop to appreciate it, this game looks amazing. The city designs, architecture, badlands, and all of the flashing lights, it so amazing to look at. Even the people around the city are lively. So long as you don’t mind looking at them glitching around still.

I have a 3-day holiday this weekend so I’m hoping I can take one day to really dig into Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands. MLB The Show 22 and Gran Turismo 7 keep calling my name though.

I’ve been getting better and better with GT7 since I’ve upped the difficulty recently and who knows, maybe I’ll play some online…

Easter weekend means “family weekend” but GhostWire: Tokyo will be what I’m jumping into when I have some free time this weekend.

I’ve heard the others talking about it so much that I knew it was my next game to play after I finished Elden Ring.

What are you playing this weekend? Are you planning to try out something new or continue chipping away at your backlog this weekend?
