š® What weāve been playing:
Leon is playing more than he realised:
o Playing the lovely but creepy The Bramble of the Mountain King.
o Chasing that high of intense PvPvE battles-Marathon is still an addiction.
o Becoming a pirate is not for everyone, but it is for Leon and his friend in Windrose.
o Ignoring the horrors of Resident Evil 9 for his free PC Game Pass month on South of Midnight, but why does he have mixed feelings about it?
Tommy has been busy:
o Still playing Borderlands 4 for the collectibles for a trophy that doesn't exist.
o From Forza Horizon 5 to Forza Horizon 6-is Tommy worn out from the racing genre?
o Still hooked and nearing the end, Tommy is still playing The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword.
o Stu won't be happy, as Tommy picks up and completes Split Fiction.
o Is Ball x Pit a way to justify your doom-scrolling? Tommy seems to think so.
o Tommy becomes The Dark Knight, but in Lego form, in LEGOĀ® Batmanā¢: Legacy of The Dark Knight.
Tom has not had a lot of time to play, but he has still fitted in some gaming time:
o Pragmata has got Tom so hooked he's already back on New Game+.
o Is Tom realising that older platformers are harder by playing Tiny Toon Adventures?
o Tom has returned to his love, Yakuza 3, but why is he annoyed with it?

o PlayStation have announced their next State of Play event for 2nd June which will be a 60-Minute-Long Showcase - The only game that has been officially confirmed for the presentation is Marvels Wolverine, but many expect more from Naughty Dog's Intergalactic.
