What are you playing?

[Jassassino]

Playing through COD4 for the first time - specifically, Modern Warfare: Remastered. Really having a great time and can't believe I missed this (I think, like many other people, once I'd got my hands on WAW/MW2/BO1, I just didn't bother to look back - those offered everything + more I could want) but I'm loving this and I'm lowkey kicking myself for not playing it sooner, because I'm actually a bit of a sucker for the Modern Warfare storyline.

Something really fun I tried just on a whim in one mission genuinely filled my heart with joy and gave me nostalgia back to when COD was a bit more of a properly developed franchise with some legit ideas. Spoilers ahead for MW/MW2 and specifically Modern Warfare: Remastered: 

Spoiler:

On the mission where you attempt to assassinate Zakhaev, I remembered that in MW3, Makarov and Yuri are retroactively inserted into that scene and are talking in a jeep just behind the deal, watching it. I looked around with my scope and saw the two having the conversation as they did in MW3. They fucking added them into the game wtf!! Thought to myself 'Fuck it, let's see what happens if I do this.', shot Zakhaev and then rushed to shoot Makarov too and I'd completed a hidden objective called 'Change the future' and unlocked a trophy called 'Time Paradox'. Really cool Easter Egg tbh and singlehandedly made my playthrough of this game on Veteran feel really worth it, wondering what else is hidden.

That's a pretty cool easter egg. CoD4 was the peak of the FPS genre for me and nothing has matched it since. That window with that around and then BFBC2 a few years later was incredible.

Spoilers for MW2 Campaign Remastered:

Spoiler:

During the famous No Russian Mission if you went far enough forward and then go back, you can see Yuri lying on the ground around the metal detectors(Where he collapsed in the flashback in MW3).

That's honestly really cool attention to detail. I'm really excited to play MW2 Campaign remastered after this ngl, but I'm so fucking gutted that they gutted the remaster and omitted Spec Ops and Multiplayer. Would've definitely killed any future COD release lmfao but would've loved it.

Finally finished Delta, not sure what to play now. Could go through it again to finish off the food records and GA-KO + Kerotan and maybe do a Foxhound run. Also tempted to finally replay Ground Zeroes. Could be a bit silly and go for that MGS4 platinum, I'm not too far away from it and it's fairly fresh in my mind from my recent playthrough. Also feel a bit of an itch to finally play Sekiro.

I've been bouncing around a bunch of games for the last few months, but I've finally settled on a few 'main' games: Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Street Fighter 6, Hades, Helldivers II, and Battlefield 6. The last two I only got last night, haha. I'm aiming to Platinum Odyssey, as I have a new PSN account and I want a long game to be my first Plat on it, and Odyssey definitely fits the bill.

Who do you play in SF6? I loved it at launch but fell off with it hard and fast. Need to go back to it. Was mainly playing E. Honda and Juri if memory serves.

I main Cammy and Akuma! I live in terror of E Honda.

Has anyone else got Outer Worlds 2 yet? Mine is arriving tomorrow - really looking forward to getting hands on it. Really enjoyed Outer Worlds

I have one more secret reel to get in Delta then I'm done with collectibles, not sure if I should go for Foxhound rank or just play Sekiro. Think I feel in the mood for Sekiro.
