whodeawhodat Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I upgraded a couple of xboxs over the holidays for the kids. Made sure that COD WW2 and Destiny 2 were in the bundle. Got Injustice 2 as well but havent messed around with that one yet. shoot me a message with your xbox id if you play those 2 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a learning curve, but if you like learning combos and with different weapon types and crafting, then the multiplayer group hunts are supposedly pretty fun. I'd recommend watching a video first and seeing if you'd be into it. I personally tried it and didn't get into it, but i think it's the type of thing if you like it, you'll love how deep and challenging it is.

rillo Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Monster Hunter is something I may pick up, trying to read up on it as much as possible. Looks like fun but Japanese games are always awkward for me. Whether it's the controllers or the camera angle just feels clunky. I do like the co-op action however.

Seems to have some buzz I picked up "Monster Hunter World" yesterday. I'm a little late to the party on it. First impressions: 1. There is a loooooot of information to digest. 2. The learning curve is pretty steep; I've been playing for a whole day and I still don't have any idea what half my stuff is for or how to do much of anything. 3. The formula to this game seems to be pretty simple: hunt monster, kill monster, make better stuff from monster's loot, hunt bigger monster, wash, rinse, repeat. I wonder if I'll get tired of the repetition. 4. It seems to play pretty well; it's a good-looking and engaging game with a ton of stuff to discover.

Patriot Killa Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Just got done re-beating Kingdom Hearts 2. Haven’t played the game since I was 11. My little brother bought the remastered edition for the PS4 so I had to take it down once again and the nostalgia of it all was just great.... About to re-beat my Resident Evil 7: Biohazard...one of the best games I played in a long time and definitely the best since Resident Evil 4.(which ironically came out the same year as Kingdom Hearts 2.) Resident Evil 7 is pure gold. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T0mShane Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 I played through FarCry5 because I like being a serial killer and the game isn’t worth paying for if you already have FC4. Same mechanics, same themes, worse story. And FC5 doesn’t even have any replay value because once you win, most of the evil hillbillies don’t respawn, and there’s nothing of interest to do.

It’s a classic time-waster that’s open-world where you can do anything—fly planes, helicopters, cars, trucks, boats, etc. The stories are generally stupid, and the missions are cookie-cutter, but you’re mostly spending time just repeatedly picking off bad guys with a huge, silenced sniper rifle trying to take over compounds without them pulling the alarms. I won’t say it’s worth $50 bucks, but if you’re just looking for something to do to check your brain out for a few hours, then it’s fine. If you want to save some bucks, pick up 4 at GameStop for $10 and it’s basically the same game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to figure out which of these AAA titles are actually any good because most of the reviewers seem to cower to the big companies, and the fan boys of specific IPs pump up the community reviews. Just looking to eat some Gummies and explore an open world a few nights a week. Prefer its as immersive as possible and not a monotonous grind.

Yeah reviews seem solid but as already discussed they are hard to trust. I just switched to PS this generation after having Microsoft the last 2 so I've never played the older ones.

FC5 is in my backlog of games to try but if it's that lame and repetitive I'll probably push it further down the list. I've played FC3 and it was okay--haven't gotten around to FC4 either though.

Last Of Us was one of the best games I ever played and the second looks like it will not disappoint. Now I just have to cross my fingers that the story line and character development is up to par but it’s Naughty Dog so I have faith. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel the franchise mode has finally received some long overdue care... BUT some of the player motions are still downright awkward. Power running backs getting stood straight up by tiny corners in open field, and even elite wide receivers having zilch sideline awareness as they never change their stride and fail to get two feet in bounds. Like a moron, I was suckered into $60 as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't mind having those retro consoles; haven't picked one up yet partly because I'm kind of pissed at Nintendo for only making like five of them when they first came out. I would think a company that big and experienced would anticipate demand and actually make enough product to satiate consumers instead of whatever bullsh*t sales strategy that debacle was, but I guess that's why I'm not a Professional Business Guy. But I digress. As far as the Madden thing goes, I'll try a new one out every few years or so but I honestly haven't been wowed by the franchise in quite a while. It just seems like the same crap over and over with slight upgrades in graphics here and there. Maybe I'm just old and jaded but it's not nearly as fun as it used to be and feels stale in just about every aspect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
