There is nothing like a good opening sequence to hook you for the next however many hours it takes you!

Not a single MGS? what a scrub. MGS is a must when you mention opening levels. Deus Ex HR, Fahrenheit and Dead Space 2 also had great openings.

Sciurus_vulgaris2607d ago

Uncharted 2, Mass Effect, GOW 3 and Bioshock have some of my favorite opening levels as well. Other favorites of mine are the openings of Prey (2006), Halo CE's The Pillar of Autumn and Timesplitters 2's Siberia level.

Bioshock 1, no game has nailed atmosphere like that in an intro, maybe dead space 1 and 2...maybe.

Sony just needs to up its resolution and framerate and it'll be quite the service, still don't like streaming though so doesn't really matter to me.

SpaceRanger2168d ago

Why is Xbox GamePass on this? Not a streaming service.

CaptainCook2167d ago

Xcloud will be included with Xbox Game Pass this year

RazzerRedux2167d ago

And they announced that.....when?

CaptainCook2167d ago (Edited 2167d ago )

@RazzerRedus
Here's the link from the engineers themselves talking about Xcloud at Xbox London Event 2019.

"There's 2 things.. We are going to give you the games you own from the cloud or the games you've purchased in the future, and we will bring Game streaming to Xbox Game Pass so you are Free to discover and play anywhere and everywhere"

SpaceRanger2167d ago

Once again, why is Xbox GamePass on this? Your comment only further proves my point.

RazzerRedux2167d ago

@CaptainCook

Thanks. I missed that announcement obviously.

Neither is Uplay or Origin. "Journalism"

2pacalypsenow2167d ago (Edited 2167d ago )

The only game streaming services are PS Now, Stadia and GeForce Now.

Xbox Game pass, Uplay plus and Origin aren’t streaming.

Exvalos2170d ago

Omfg lmao!!!!! Never a more perfect time to say that

badz1492170d ago

it's not over 9000 though

Father__Merrin2170d ago

these cretins are all over ebay you search for a game key and something cheap comes up once you click on the post its actually not a game key but rather access to a account. theres no option on ebay to report them

arkard2170d ago (Edited 2170d ago )

Should be, what does not participate in digital sales (unless something changed im unaware of) so a sale like that is against there terms and conditions

I was wrong, they do allow digital items now.
https://www.ebay.com/help/p...

But I checked and there is still a reporting tool on the mobile website at least. You have to scroll pretty far down to get to it though

nucky642170d ago

not sure about that. i used to sell digital codes from blu ray movies i bought. i never used them so it seemed like a waste. i usually put them up for sale for a third of what the entire movie package cost me. the last time i tried to do this (around 2 months ago) i get message that trying to sell digital copies isn't allowed.

nucky642170d ago

so true. i was always curious as to how people were allowed to do that. now i know - they aren't supposed to.

Cyb3r2170d ago

Some websites sell accounts too Im surprised that noting is being done about this

JackBNimble2170d ago

And they're all stolen accounts

2170d ago
JackBNimble2170d ago

Why are they calling this trading accounts, this is plain and simply stealing.
