The last game I played was Fortnite not too long ago. Played some Fortnite Festival and tried out the new songs and played a few games on battle royale, got my second win of this season 🙂

Video games can have both positive and negative effects on mental health. When playing video games in moderation, can help your mental health greatly but if you let video games consume your life and you become addicted, you will find that your mental health can be effected negatively. Always best to balance video games with other things you enjoy to help your mental health.

The last game I played was Fortnite Festival last week for a few hours. Been so busy with New Year and getting back into a routine that I haven't played in about a week now.

I have played Lego Fortnite a few times since it was released back in early December and will admit, to be able to just sit and chill out on a game such as Lego and it be open world is very relaxing and chill. I am hearing we are getting an update soon which will introduce weapons so I am excited for that 🙂

I always remember if we got a console for say Christmas, it would be one to share with my brothers and we would have to take it in turns. Lending and borrowing games from friends was always something we did quite often and it was a lot of fun also going round to friend's houses to play games we did not have access to.

I would like to believe that it is ready to handle cloud gaming but knowing the issues we have had in the past with the internet doing basic functions, I know that when more start to use cloud gaming, the internet will struggle. It will be possible but not without issues at first.

I played Fortnite Racing when it was first released and found there was quite a bit wrong with it. Fast forward to a few nights ago when I played and they have fixed so much and it is a lot of fun to play now. If you have not played it recently, I would recommend it since they fixed a lot of things.

I remember when I was younger this used to happen a lot, I would lose saved data on things such as memory cards and it was such a pain and frustrating. I am thankful that everything is now on the cloud and backed up on the cloud as it eliminates this issue.

I did notice this and did wonder why they never released it with the ability to have split-screen play. I remember years ago, Fortnite had the split screen function for their battle royale but I believe it was discontinued. Would be nice to see split split-screen for the Lego mode for those who have younger children who enjoy playing 🙂 I have been playing Fortnite Lego and it is a great game to sit and chill out on, do need to find some more time to play more but it's definitely a hit for Fortnite.

For those who are big PlayStation fans, I would think they are very excited to hear details regarding the PS5 Pro. I am not a big fan of PlayStation so it is not something I would pick up but it will be exciting to see what they will announce for the PS5 Pro.

I don't mind remakes as long as it is a game that others want to see as a remake. An example would be The Simpsons' Hit and Run or The Simpsons' Road Rage, both of which, gamers have wanted to see remakes of but nothing yet. I am all for remakes if it helps the developers stay in business.

Agreed, at least for now the only place you have been able to play games is either on your Xbox console, on your PC or on your phone which hasn't always been the greatest. I believe this may be the start of Microsoft and Xbox bring their Game Pass service to more devices, exciting times!

Do let us know when you manage to play it 🙂 I was super excited to play it myself but rage quit not too long after. Some have lasted playing on the game for a while so it is possible if you have the patience 🙂

This is amazing news. I have just bought a Meta Quest 2 for my kids for Christmas, they have been asking for one for a while and now it seems they will have access to so much more as well 🙂

The last time I played Cuphead was back in around 2018. I remember getting so frustrated playing it that I ended up rage-quitting and have not been back on it since. I still have access to the game as I bought it digitally but up until now have not been back on it.
