    It's kind of aerial combat, you control a Falcon, and you fly about shooting enemies and dodging traps and stuff.

    If you have a look on YouTube there'll be footage of it on there, but it is Xbox exclusive.

    Sounds and looks cool @MrAllen1976, but yeah guess I won't be able to play it anyway given I'm a PlayStationer :)

    Has anyone with Valhalla managed to complete 'A Mild Hunt'?  I spent ages finding the 3 reindeer antlers but can't find the Hunter again, she's just disappeared!  Looking online it seems it was bugged a couple of months ago but I can't find out whether it's been fixed since.

    I am a good bit into Valhalla but I haven't done any of the legendary animals hunt yet. I suggest you go online and just put in 'Valhalla A Mild Hunt' in google. I'm sure you will get a feed into You Tube with a video of the hunt.

    Ah, you've probably missed it by now then.  It bugs out if you don't complete it before the 'travel to England' mission starts.

    It's not actually a hunt, it's just a collection task - collect 3 reindeer antlers and bring them back to the hunter.  Reindeer are hard to find, and not all of them drop antlers (I only had a 1 in 3 drop rate!) so takes time to do.  But annoyingly the hunter disappears so I'm now stuck with her quest and these Antlers (as if the bag isn't heavy enough already lol, must be like Mary Poppins bag).  Some people have returned later in the game and found the hunter so I've just given up on that for now.  The actual reward isn't much (she gives you the location of a large animal, but you'll find it accidentally anyway) it's just annoying not being able to complete the task.

    I've been trying to catch 10 bullhead fish for another collection task this morning which is equally as trying of my patience!  :D

    Apparently Game had limited stock online circa the middle of last week, it didn't last long though. Although last I heard Argos are hoping for stock in February.

    Assassin’s Creed sounds quite good from what you have described here.

    Is it an “open world” game where you can just go around doing what you want?

    Yes, I read about Game stock too, though it was already too late by the time I saw it.  Will keep an eye out on Argos now though, didn't realise they still sold consoles.

    Yep, exactly that, you can do as few or as many of the side missions as you like, though there is a main story line that you have to progress through to reach different places.  Part of it is set in England too...I'm keeping an eye out for my house.  :D

    On this one you can limit blood FX and totally turn off dismemberment, which is a positive for me and I guess would be for you too.  Sadly the one thing you can't turn off is the sound of 'conflict' which can be a bit much for me if I'm honest.

    Im in the middle of building my new monster gaming PC but currently the computer component market worldwide is under considerable stress with most parts being 'out of stock' everywhere. AMD and Nvidia have also had pretty much 'paper launches' in the latter half of 2020 where their new products are simply unavailable or being sold on sites like 'Ebay' for extortionate prices.

    I'm hoping that I will be able to get my hands on a new graphics card by May because this is when hopefully Amazon Games will be launching their new open world MMO 'New Worlds' which I'm really looking forward to playing!
