Just the one review this week:
And just the one hardware review alongside:

Players who previously redeemed the PlayStation 4 version of Fallout 4 will have to wait a little longer for its free next-gen upgrade, Bethesda says.
Some longtime Fallout: New Vegas players have taken to playing dirty tricks on fans of the streaming television series by trying to trick them into wandering into high-danger areas unprepared. Specifically, they've been goading unsuspecting new Fallout: New Vegas players into venturing into a massive deathclaw den and straight into the line of mortar fire with the false promise of high-level loot and no enemies.
Gran Turismo players! Now more than ever, technology is developing in ways that creates endless possibilities. This month’s GT updates features a glimpse of what the future would hold through two vehicles, the coveted ŠKODA Vision Gran Turismo and AFEELA Prototype 2024 .

We’re coming to the end of the “get up obscenely early to watch Formula 1” season for UK fans, but that hasn’t been helped by F1’s decision to make the Chinese GP a sprint race, with a 4AM start time for the mini-race this morning. Having dutifully set my watch alarm to tap my wrist a few minutes before, I managed to sleep through it… but was then woken by a repeat alarm an hour later, and struggled to get back to sleep.

To offset the amount of titles the platform offers, Microsoft always removes a handful of games whenever it brings in a new selection for players to experience. While that might sound like a bad deal, it makes sense given the already massive catalog on offer and users can still pick up the departing games for a discount before they eventually leave.

It looks like it’s going to be a lovely weekend, so I’ve got plans to head out into the garden and do some gardening. There will obviously be some gaming in the evening, but I’ve got to make the most of the weather! What are you getting up to this weekend?
Baldur's Gate 3 is the first game in history to win five major game of the year awards: those from BAFTA, D.I.C.E., Game Developers Choice, Golden Joystick, and The Game Awards. This historic achievement further underlines the massive success that Baldur's Gate 3 went on to become, especially since that elusive fifth accolade was far from a certainty.
