I'm gonna be finishing my new CAMP build in F76 and I'm pretty excited about how it's going so far. Also trying out a bit more of the Balan Wonderworld demo.
For TV, I'll be checking out The Mandalorian season 2. Plus Villa v Arsenal on Saturday.
And I gotta do house chores; really need to get the hoover going.

Games

Will finish Outer Worlds and play some more Hitman 3. May start playing Control.

TV

New episodes of WandaVision and RuPaul's Drag Race.

Other

Nothing else. Actually, probably read a bit more of The Girl With All The Gifts. It's alright so far.

Corazon de Leon

Packing to move house

Watch Wandavision

Send book manuscript to editor

Blessed sleep

Is this in the right folder?

I'll probably just be playing Skyrim most of the weekend.

Saturday night, though, the wife and I will be watching the Twilight films for a giggle with our friends in Sweden, probably using something like Netflix Party.

It's so neat how you've picked up the streaming baton and really ran with it, aayl1!

Ah! You've been inspired by the thread in Stuff!

Nice, Zilnad - I'm gonna be tackling this on Switch at some point.

I've not checked it out but it seems that several GRcadians are enjoying this!

Nothing wrong with setting off into the mountains for adventure, CM :-)

Always go for a long walk on Sunday mornings. Probably cut my hair. Home weight session.

> Game(s) you're gonna play

Animal Crossing's daily grind and weekly KK
Super Mario Maker 2 after Sunday's AYAMMM stream
R6S maybe for multiplayer with friends
AC Valhalla maybe to push through the story

Who know what else, I live life on the edge

Control on PS5.
Probably some Turrican 2.

Random 80s horror films and then searching Netflix for ages to find something new to watch to settle on Still Game or Alan Partridge again.

Plus eating chocolate and not going out.

I've seen this game mentioned a couple of times in GR recently. I know that Pedz enjoyed it and, a while ago now, streamed it a few times. It looked to be fun!

Going for the burn, Ste!

Saturday night making sweet music with Slider :datass:

OrangeRKN wrote:Super Mario Maker 2 after Sunday's AYAMMM stream...

Ah! Yeah, I'd imagine Jenuall's Mario Makin' crew will be busy on that over the weekend.

OrangeRKN wrote:Who know what else, I live life on the edge

I like your approach, Orange. No rules, just going with how you feel.

Godzilla wrote:...Probably some Turrican 2...

Now we're talking. It's great that you're highlighting a classic, Godzilla.

Godzilla wrote:...then searching Netflix for ages to find something new to watch to settle on Still Game or Alan Partridge again...

More searching than watching? A familiar scenario :lol:

Godzilla wrote:...Plus eating chocolate and not going out.

Always gotta make time for some R&R. Sit back and relax!

Games

Stardew Valley - going to install a couple of mods (just seasonal villager outfits at first, then if that goes well a couple of QoL utilities)

Diablo III (for the umpteenth time)

Might start a new game from my colossal backlog too.

TV/Films

Batwoman ( :roll:

its utter drivel but its entertaining enough, plus Alice is a brilliantly insane villain)
Dark S2

This seems like the kind of game that is a bit hard to get into but really quite cool once you understand how things work?

Ironhide wrote:...Might start a new game from my colossal backlog too....

Go for it, Ironhide! It'll be neat to try something fresh.

Ironhide wrote:...Batwoman ( its utter drivel but its entertaining enough, plus Alice is a brilliantly insane villain)...

I've not seen this film but it does have somewhat of a reputation

Games
Breath of the Wild second playthrough
Maybe some Friday night FIFA
Ace Combat 7 if I'm in the mood

TV programme
This Is Us on Amazon - the wife loves it (balls her eyes out every single episode).
The Masked Singer semi-final (my daughter loves it)

Something else I'm going to do
THE WIFE OI OI
Nah she wishes, I'll probably just take some garage junk to the tip :toot:

TV - Parks and Rec is on Netflix now. So I will watch that.

Other - planning to have a bash at sorting one of my guitars out. The Trem bridge needs readjusted. I tried it before, made a balls of it. Need to clean my bathroom, so I'm psyching myself up to do it.

PostRe: Whatchya doing this weekend? by **Yoshimi** » Fri Feb 05, 2021 1:05 pm

Games - Persona 5 Royal, Control, Concrete Genie, Atelier Ryza 2 (if it arrives today)

FTFY

Its of roughly the same standard as the other CW "Arrowverse" shows so if you don't mind them you should be fine with this.

They've actually kind of managed to replace the lead actress without it being too jarring.

Its still almost unbearably woke at times and the Batmobile is laughably terrible (even crapper than the 60's one) but it has a certain charm.

Also, just started Stardew Valley after installing a couple of mods and discovered its rendered the onscreen controller I use to play it utterly useless for some unknown reason so I'm going to have to figure out a solution.

It's what draws me to you

Games - Jurassic World Evolution. The game is sort of fun despite its numerous design flaws, superfluous button presses, lack of automation and general clockwatchy gameplay. I'm trying to whizz through the campaign so I can unlock all the dinosaurs, then I'm going to make a custom Jurassic Park in sandbox mode to explore with my dino-mad son. Maybe also some GTA V (entirely your fault Jawa!) and some Untitled Goose Game as my boss got it on the Switch and his raving about it has me back in the mood...

TV and film - Wandavision obviously! Masked Singer (I only started watching a couple of weeks ago, called Lenny Henry after about two words of Blob speaking and was proved right last week. I think Davina McCall has got it spot on that one of them is Stacey Dooley. Might have to watch Karate Kid 3 as we have it on DVD but assumed it was poor (diminishing returns) so never watched it. Cobra Kai has made numerous references to it in S3 though so want to go back and fill in the gaps.

Other stuff - try and go out for a walk. Got a cold so will try to take it easy. Follow Arsenal v Villa through some medium or other. It's my sister's birthday so we've got a birthday video chat arranged tomorrow.
