My biggest problem while gaming is trying to play single player, story driven games durimg party chat. its why i havent gotten through many single playergames recently

Christopher4283d ago

Not sure how you do that. For me, I game best, multiplayer or singleplayer, when I don't have other people in my head.

BiggCMan4282d ago

Dunno if i'm missing something here, but the obvious answer here seems to be to...not be in chat while trying to pay attention to a story?

theDivision4282d ago

The same revolutionary thought crossed my mind.

What would be a great touch for the X1 and PS4 is a six stack blue-ray drive.

Just go digital. Discs are for magpies.

Iamnemesis48804282d ago

Only if your internet speed is good. But nothing can beat a physical copy of a game simple as that.
If it was a digital how would you smash COD ghosts

Matt6664282d ago

Number 16 I haven't brought COD since WAW. I do hate it for my own reasons mainly because it the same game every single year.

It’s not that Gen Z isn’t interested in AAA or story driven games, a lot of them simply don’t have the financial freedom to explore. When you’re budgeting, you stick to games that give the most value for the least cost, which is why ecosystems like Fortnite, Roblox, and Minecraft dominate. What looks like a preference is often just economic constraint.

This really doesn't mean anything, when you can pirate PC games with a mature or AO rating. 😂 You can pirate without any age restriction bullshit.

wtf are you talking about? they are talking about raising the age in EU for games that have loot boxes etc. in them. This is for online games mostly you absolute maroon.

Controversial take but maybe parents could start parenting and be more attentive and involved in their kids life? Then maybe other adults can buy whatever they'd like without worrying about "the children" that aren't in the slightest a concern to em, cause…they're not their children? Also we don't need to stop letting out of touch boomers in government from deciding what is and what isn't "good" for people in the US. There is a surprising amount of things that are banned in this country that in multiple other countries are more of a net positive, yet for some reason they aren't allowed here.

Furesis19h ago

this doesn't look all that bad maybe you should read it first. daily login, battle passes, loot boxes etc. will affect the rating although this only affects games that are going to be released from june onward, for now at least. they are looking at addictive design which are not good and online games are filled with them. though im not sure this will do much anyways so you're fine.
