The only DLC not included's some multiplayer stuff and the Pinnacle Station add-on for the first game. Apparently was developed by an outside team that couldn't provide them with the source code for it. To add to this, the only real complaint I have about the way Legendary Edition incorporates some of the ME2/3 equipment/gun DLC is to put them in the regular stores. Only you can have so many credits on a regular playthrough and the credit gains aren't adjusted around adding these new, expensive items to shop lists. Only way you'll be able to grab everything on top of the upgrades and such is through NG+.
Otherwise, all the story DLC of ME1-3 is in LE. Pinnacle Station was garbage and had no real story to it, so you're not missing out on anything with its exclusion.
I picked up Ghost of Tsushima and .hack//GU Last Recode during the last big sales. .hack//GU was a trilogy of games I enjoyed for the PS2 and I picked it up on the cheap. I wouldn't call it the best game and dungeon design is very samey, but it's fun enough. Ghost of Tsushima is really good. Gorgeous game, too. It feels like Assassin's Creed meets a Kurosawa film.
I absolutely love that it outright has a "Kurosawa mode" making the game black and white with film grain. The colors are way to gorgeous for me to use it except briefly as a novelty though

PlayStation Wrap-Up starts today and, well, if anyone knows me for any amount of time, my most played is in no way shocking.

Lesse how mine shakes out...
- 612 total hours, 127% more than last year. - Played 28 games, top 5 being WWE 2K22, Red Dead Redemption 2, Kingdom Hearts 1.5 + 2.5, Mortal Kombat 11, and GTA5 - 231 trophies, 2 Platinums which were Raging Loop and Fatal Twelve - 0 PS Plus games since I buy that on a separate profile than what I actually play on so I can share it with my brother.
I'd kind of forgotten I'd done stuff like RDR2, Kingdom Hearts, and GTA5 this year. Barely touched my PS5 the past few months so sort of felt like Raging Loop would've been one of my top ones since going through it a month or so back was the most time I've put into it in awhile.

Anyone else playing Disney Dreamlight Valley? its a hell of an addicting game with tons to do and as a massive disney fan (classic disney mostly!),its a real joy just hanging around with a ton of characters from the disney universe though there are some odd choices for characters who you get to meet and help with there, i mean who wants to spend time with Kristoff from Frozen? Still Wall-e is awesome as is Donald too . Good fun game,and the Toy story dlc is pretty cool too that was just recently released.

No Aladdin? No Robin Hood? No Peter Pan? Guess gotta save some to milk that DLC money from people.... That and the fact it has ingame currency screams "we're going to gouge every penny we can from people"

Playing through Yakuza Kiwami 2, there's a couple of things I thought worth mentioning.
A) A whole bunch of real wrestlers just showing up randomly was a fun surprise. The first got a "Ha, look at that!" reaction, but then they just kept adding on more of them. B) The substory about the Yakuza Sunset movie series and how everybody thought number three was terrible has me a little worried about the next game.

From what I've read Yakuza 3 is very much a product of its time - the story still holds up but the gameplay not so much. I started the Yakuza series this year with 0, and have beaten 0 and both Kiwami games as of now. I'm personally giving it some time after finishing Kiwami 2 before starting 3 since I've heard the transition back to the old gameplay engine is extremely jarring. Besides it's gonna take me forever to finish next-gen Witcher 3 anyway (which has been amazing thus far - loooove the haptic feedback and 60fps).

3 has a great setting and a decent story, but the combat was shitty at the time of release and it ain't aged any better. Enemy AI is set to block and only to block and it can get exhausting in sharp order. I'd still recommend it to any budding Yakuza fan, but brace youself, more or less.

Well, I thought Yakuza 3 is not really that good. Sure it has captivating moments and characters and over the top action... but that's the norm for the series. Now turning it into {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}an international conspiracy to take down a black arms dealer including a full on invasion of a ministry with no security forces in sight is a bit too much for Yakuza. I like it over the top in flair, but the plot still has to be grounded (6 skirts around this issue as well, but reels itself back, fortunately). It's also the most irrelevant story of the bunch (I count... 3 things that it does that are important), so it's as close to "filler" as you get with this franchise. 3 also has some of the worst combat of the series (only above the PS2 era games), which for a series where you have to do a lot of combat... not great. The blocking, the staggering... all terrible. Makes one wish they did a Kiwami 3 for it, but alas it's what we have.

Last night I played a Fifa game for the first time in my life - Fifa 22.
It's fun, but despite having an option for a image for my franchise/team/club's crest as a cat with a slice of pizza they wouldn't allow me to name it "pizza cats" or "pizza kittens" or just about any variant including the words "pizza" and "Cat" as it's "a term used with harassment." Eventually I landed on "Lucé Felines."
Also, I noticed one of the templates for a custom player looked a lot like Helen Hunt so I just fully created Helen Hunt in the game.

Another month almost comes to an end, another PS+ game announcement leaked by Billbil so you know the deal, it’s probably going to be these three games. {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}
Not bad to be honest, brought Fallen Order recently but good it’s out there before the new game, Axiom Verge is a game I’ve been meaning to play so cool to have that and Fallout 76 isn’t the car wreck it once was so might be fun to have a go with that

I just beat Spiderman Miles Morales last night (tis the season) and I thought it was a really fun game. Kind of short and maybe a bit of a glorified DLC with more stuff but totally worth the time spent. Next I will finally finish Persona 5 as I am on the home stretch last arc. I may also start Last of Us 2 and I am prepared for my most likely inevitable love/hate relationship with it. That and God of War Ragnarok

That might actually get me to give that game a shot. I love the universe and I've heard the game is much improved, but yeah, I just couldn't be bothered to go out of my way to try it which really says something.

Was looking at games in the Holiday Sale, and saw NBA 2K and thought I'd pick it up since I liked the Jordan challenges in 2K11. It would also give me a new game to play, but WTF, it needs 190gb storage space? How does a sports game need more space than games like GTA V, Red Dead 2, Elden Ring, Battlefront 2, and the new CoD? Granted looking it up it's still less than CoD: Cold War, but it takes up less space than GTA and Red Dead combined. It's a damn sports game, it shouldn't need more storage space than deep as f*** games.

Don't even try to get anything from the Store right now. Servers are so flooded, you can't get a damn thing.

Bunch of stuff I'll likely never check out, and really even if I wanted to the first two are on Gamepass.
