    I dug out my old PS3 today to play some bluray discs and thought I'd take Gran Turismo 5 for a quick spin..... I was pleasantly surprised how well it holds up against newer games, considering its nearly 10 years old now.... Sounds are obviously total pants and the graphics suffer from a little pop up and a lot of aliasing but apart from that its very good, textures and lighting are good. I totally forgot it has a working day/night cycle which works very very well....brilliant racing into the night and watching the sun come up again.....I only played with the pad, no rig in the living room!

    I picked up Mirrors Edge recently (the original) and have been learning the speedrun tech for it alongside Simpsons Hit and Run and SWAT 4. Three easy to learn games with plenty of hours in casual fun ^_^

    Someone bought me MGS V: Phantom Pain recently, so I've been playing that. The story is a bloody mystery as I haven't really followed the MGS series, know few of the characters or their histories, and MGS has always been a bit weird. But the stealthy infiltration style gameplay is really good fun.

    If you want to spend money, Flight Simulator is the place...got back into it recently and to really enjoy it, you probably need to get P3D ( $60 US), a number of scenery updates ( ORBX Global or similar, local map, an airport or two ($150 + US) and a decent payware plane as recommended by Skybird ( $50 US for that awesome 737 or similar. I'd probably go for a bush floatplane, too). I am using vanilla FSX right now, ORBX Pacific Northwest and freeware planes as a learning tool right now, but it looks pretty lame and the planes are very basic. Just need a spare $250 + US to make it nice!!!
    Other Flight Sims that look good and are pretty cheap are Rise of Flight ( free like RRE, lots of biplanes and a big map) and DCS, which comes with a couple free planes. I got the ol' F-15C for $10 on sale. Big learning curve but fun to fly over the free map. IL-2 Sturmovik series is also good, but not so cheap.
    At least I can get by for now with the ol' Logitech 3D joystick and a keyboard.

    Slowly getting there, The Phantom Pain and Metal Gear done! Btw it was funny to jump 28 years back to the future (between those two games). Now going through Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake and Gears 4

    Had it on the PS4 since launch. It was not the game they promised it to be. After a while I putted it aside.
    Now on the PC and VR support I bought it again after the beyond update. This game and VR is not nice for me. I hate to play with the Oculus motion controllers. I want VR with DS4 controller.
    Other than that it is a really big leap forward since I played it. It now is more like the game they promised back in 2016.
    I’m hooked again. Although it still is a lot of grinding. Just explore and a relax playing is What I like.
    Now I only need 48hours in 1 day.

    Or you could give XP11 a try.

    Same sim-price as P3D, so no savings there, but....
    Updated mesh: Free.
    Ortho terrain: Free (although you need some serious HDD storage)
    Zibomod 737: Free.
    Updated sky textures: Free.
    Plus it runs much, much better than P3D.

    It's not perfect. AI traffic and the weather-engine still needs some work.
    And it's in dire need of a better ATC
    But I have deleted P3D and every add-on I had for it, and gone fully over to the dark side. :D

    And of course, no-one knows what MSFS 2020 will bring to the table.
