I've put about 15 hours into this game and having a blast with my buds. While I can see the reason for disappointment for those expecting some massive WoW experience at sea, this game really wasn't designed with anything but immersion and coop experiences in mind. Rare didn't come across as being disingenuous or making false promises to me, they said this would be a unique pirate experience which I think they succeeded in. The voyages (quests) are generic rinse and repeat for cosm...
Far cry 4 was a pretty unique game, coop was excellent. Looking forward to this when the cost comes down a bit. Backlog is growing.
MW multiplayer - Martyrdom abuse, otherwise excellence.
IMO, COD MW2 and Titanfall 2 are the best online FPS experiences in the last 10 years. The rumor that MW2 will not include multiplayer can only be true if Activision is no longer interested in making money.
I'm not a fan of the graphical style, but it looks pretty intriguing and Sea of Theives will be on Xbox Game Pass. There is a 3 month's for $20 deal going on right now for game pass if anyone is interested. https://gamedealdaily.com/p...
I really like what they are doing with Play Anywhere, Day 1 exclusives on Gamepass and backwards compatibility. I also like their new hardware; but the games, where are the AAA games? It's like they've built a giant solid sturdy easel with a great big canvas but have yet to begin painting.
Would like to see a Pro/X1X patch for this game.
The only thing I dislike about Titanfall 2 is the smallish online playerbase as a result of the bad launch timing. It limits you in no way to finding a match to play, but you've got to be good to great because those who remain are pulling off Matrix fight scenes. Pretty sick really.
We'll Electronic Arts Inc.is trading at $127.10 today, so they are doing something right. Respawn seems to be hiring for multiple projects including Titanfall 3 and a Star Wars game, which I hope isn't EA'd to death with transactions that boost performance, cosmetics ok but zero pay-to-win. http://www.respawn.com/care...
We'll have to give Rewspawn a solid 2 years to see where they are headed und...
That is a pretty impressive lineup. I didn't realize Ghosts of Tsushima is developed by Sucker Punch (Infamous), that should be pretty incredible. Also, Guillermo del Toro and Hideo Kojima teaming up should make for one weird as hell presentation. Hopefully, Mr. Toro can keep the Kojima'ness at bay so it's not too far out there; he's a great director and storyteller who knows how to captivate a wide variety of audiences despite the unique content he brings to the screen. Could...
The next round of exclusives in 2018 are at max level for PS4 and there is only so much those old jaguar's can do. PS4 Pro makes those titles a bit sharper, or if we're lucky, smoother at 1080p. If we really want to experience next gen game engines running 60fps at 1400p-2160p on console, we're going to need PS5 sooner than later. I think Holiday 2019 would be ideal and a smart marketing decision. All end of cycle exclusives are then available, which are the best of gen and will p...
Thank no one for release delays. Games often aren't patched and fixed until six months to a year after release until we see the best version.
Remember how awesome the xbox 360 was despite the horrendous quality control, RROD and class action suits? People still kept buying those systems regardless until the redesign fixed the issues. All that time PS3 was expensive and performing worse on all titles. Took about 3 years for PS3 to get on it's feet. I think you're right about MS, they have great hardware today, good support for everything you buy going forward and they're online performance is def better than PSN, which d...
True, it's becasue Stitch and PS4 have great games available unique to their audience, but MS has a good foundation for the future. Backward compatibility is solid, Play Anywhere, gamepass day 1 exclusives, etc. and they are making a lot of smart updates to firmware based on gamer feedback. Exclusives will come because that's the only choice they have to compete. The X1X is not worth $499 + tax ($540) at this time IMO. I just bought one today for $368 delivered, less 18 bucks from eba...
Is the experience worth, oh $15 bucks?
Consumer demand is past the point of not requiring and enjoying this feature. System wide enhancements, old library of backlog support out of the box and for godsake, Bluetooth compatibility between accessories regardless of gen, which I can't believe is really a thing.
I knew it was play anywhere, MS's smartest move this gen, but some games don't allow crossplay for certain modes... yet. This is really nice to hear and for $30 bucks it's a steal. Last good Zed game was Dying Light, MS needs a win with this one.
Can PC players play with Xbox live online for this title?
What? Blasphemy. All games get a good shot, especially at 10 bucks!
Who else is waiting for a sale to play the funk out of this one?
