Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 639
Push Square’s weekly ‘Talking Point’ column features gaming journalists and personalities sharing their weekend gaming plans. In Issue 639, contributor Jamie O’Neill discusses playing Need for Speed Unbound on PlayStation 5. O’Neill is following a personal New Year’s resolution to experience 12 PlayStation 5-exclusive games—titles not available on the earlier PlayStation 4. Need for Speed Unbound marks the sixth game in this ongoing six-month challenge. Developed by Criterion Games, the racing title is known for its drifting mechanics. O’Neill explains his attraction to the game within the context of his broader gaming goal. The column opens with a casual personal note about exceptionally hot weather in the UK, establishing the conversational and approachable tone characteristic of the feature.
