It is, was enjoying Dungeon Siege too. Liked it more than I expected...
@NewMonday
What? All I said was I enjoying Dungeon Siege. And yes it doesn't play the discs cause it can't. It's not a catch, it's a necessity to play said games...
Plus once you've downloaded the game, you don't need to be online.
"Low map count, repetition creeps in due to less variety."
Low Map count ? It's launching with more maps (and modes) than BF4 or Hardline did... plus it's got 2 free maps on The Battle of Jakku DLC launching when the movie arrives. Plus the maps variate in size depending on the mode.
There is 9 modes in the MP and then there is 3 offline modes. How is that not enough variety ? The modes are different enough to provide variety in your experie...
I have been playing it on EA Access for last two days and I think its actually really fun. The content while isn't a lot still more than most Shooters at launch.
It launches with 12 maps and 9 modes in the MP alone then you got the 3 additional offline modes with the same maps. Some of the maps have different variants (of size) depending on what mode your playing...
And another 2 maps coming for free when the movie launches. Disregarding the lack of campa...
It's funny when NPD came in for last month, HAlo and Xbox were on top then everyone was saying it doesn't represent the whole world. U.S isn't the world but when figures for UK come in for Tomb Raider then everybody is so quick to judge and lay blame. It's not like it's going up against Fallout 4, CoD and SW...
I'm sure it did fine worldwide and will become profitable over time but it was never gonna compete against the big titles no matter how good it...
Perhaps but they didn't even bring it to PC, so it's not that likely there doing a remaster. I think it's all hands on deck for Red Dead 2...
I'm not saying they don't plan on one but I wouldn't put money on it. Also it'd only to drum up hype for the sequel which it doesn't need.
As do I, one of favorite games of last generation. I really hope Rockstar allow this game to be played on Xbox One, it's highly requested.
They did the same last year, took a break for the holidays and allowed everyone to get acquainted with their new consoles at Christmas time. And it's a well deserved break. I look forward to seeing what updates we get in 2016. They need to get on top of background music.
It's good to see the games industry is as healthy as ever...
#GameON
That would be awesome. It needs to happen...
It's almost as if Halo is on one platform and Black Ops and SW are on multiple.
Yeah I agree, the MP is the best it's been in years. Sure the campaign has faults but in no way is this game a 5.5/10. No Way!
Runs better on Xbox One through emulation... that's amazing. Great Job MS!!! Hopefully they can deliver that sort of quality to most BC titles...
Title says hamstrung by Xbox One but not 360 ? Clickbait.
I'm glad, it deserved too. Congrats to Bethesda on a fantastic launch, I expected it to well but not this well... Wow.
Get the pitchforks... evil MS are at it again.
I also thought it was funny and clever way of delivering their message.
Can't wait for Big Team next week ;]
Halo 5 MP is the bomb...
@Clarence
Oh ya, your right they must be hiding something...
It's not like they made $400 million at the launch of Halo 5. Right ? Oh wait...
And seeing as your saying it didn't sell as much as previous Halo's...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wi...
"Halo 4 grossed US$220 million on its launch day and $300 million in its opening week...
Don't worry I know the drill.
I was just surprised that I got disagreed with about 5-10 secs after I posted the comment. Their response time is impeccable...
Yeah, everyone was saying MS were deceiving us by only showing revenue from Halo 5 launch but now we've learned it was the best selling game of the month with only 4 days to garner that lead. Pretty Impressive. Again congrats to MS and 343i.
I just hope it's at least 2-3 years away and really focuses on giving us a Conquest Mode, Story Mode, Space Battles (maybe included in planetary battle ? if they can) and Prequel Era Factions. EA don't need to make this an annual release or any crap like that.
