There isn't a game I'm looking forward to so much at this point, but I am excited about the Oculus Rift. If they release a dev kit with the new Crystal Cove set up without an actual product launch date, then I might just spring for the dev kit.

Interesting. I think BO2 is the better of the two games.

I've been FLAMED for this but I concur. BO2 looks, feels, and sounds better IMO.

Flamed, on some nerd site?

BO2 is more cartoonish or something, but I thought the gameplay was better (more differences in the weapons, better maps, and more of a "zero-ping" feel to it, which I like, however unrealistic).
 
Any of the Racing Sims that are decent. STILL REALLY PISSED that they haven't made an updated Tourist Trophy yet. :mad

Actually, I did forget one that I'm genuinely interested in: Dayz standalone.

Yessssssss! I'm with you on this one. I've been waiting to get a new PC until this game is out because this is the PC game I most wanna play.

The alpha is available, but there's only a very limited selection of gear in the loot tables plus tons of glitches and bugs, so as much as I wanna play it, I'm gonna wait till it's more complete.

That game is one of the reasons my PS2 is still hooked up. (Beyond Good and Evil, Okami, Psychonauts, yeah) It's got to be one of the best (if not THE best) all time MC sims ever made. None of the MotoGP or SBK games that came out on the new consoles were even close. I remember the old WSBK series for the PC were even better than the games for the 360 and the PS3. I've given up on ever getting a decent MC game for the newer consoles.

Still playing the late 2012 game Black Ops II, but now that Ghosts is out the BOII servers are mysteriously slower now so I suspect their resources have been diverted to the new game not the old game. :p

Had a just-for-fun goal to get my lifetime KDR up to 1.50 on Ops and reached it recently, along with Prestige Master. But now the game is almost unplayable it's so slow, either my internet is wonky or their best servers are dedicated to the new Ghosts. :(

The reason it's slower is because there are less people playing it. Less people means the matchmaking system might not be able to group a whole lobby of people in the same locale. And when you get a group of people in different parts of the country, with a peer to peer host situation, well...this is why it turns into a lag fest.

I get the same thing playing Ghosts since I mostly play in the hardcore modes which aren't as popular. I hear the kids talking in the lobby and know that a good bunch of them sure as hell aren't in California.
 
I'm a huge AC fan, wasn't as thrilled with 1 and Revelations as I was the others, but it's still by far my favorite series.

Others I've enjoyed include God of War series, Devil May Cry, Dragon Age and currently am finishing up Dishonored.

Generally I don't like FPS type games, I can deal with it in Dishonored but the game isn't extremely combat heavy, so it's not as much of an issue.

Let's get some soon? What games style do you typically play? I've been doing mainly team deathmatch, a little rush, etc. (normal Conquest takes too long).
Click to expand...

Almost exclusively play Conquest, and refuse to play anything but hardcore.

Can't find your name on Origin btw

*edit, looking over your last post, you might not be playing on PC?

I will gladly concede that BF4 is the better game....when it fucking works!

Lobby/party up system is just non existent (it actually was ok in BF3...why they had to fuck with that is beyond me). Tons of glitches. And there's the fact that BF4 crashes/freezes on me once or twice an hour. Weapon balance issues I don't mind so much since I know those eventually get hotfixed since DICE loves to constantly tweak. However, 3 x V40 and 2 x RGO grenades needs to fucking stop soon...operation locker is just a grenade spam fest.

I really want to like Battlefield over COD. When I was a kid playing with GI Joes, if you didn't have a vehicle or two...you were doin it wrong. So I like being able to jump in a jet or chopper (and I'm a damn good pilot too) and just pound on people from the air from time to time. But after the game crashes a couple times, or I'm starting the umpteenth round in a row where I have no sound for the first minute....I give up on the shit and just put COD in. Fairly bug free, I can get in a game or even party up with BARFtron fairly quickly, and just do the same ol same ol yet again.

I think I saw something about Amazon selling AC4 this weekend for 30 bucks. You absolutely should get it, it's the best in the series since 2, might be the best one yet. Also, PIRATES.

Most of the stuff I'm excited for don't have release dates: Mirrors Edge 2, Cyberpunk 2077 and Transistor. Transistor should be out this year, Cyberpunk sometime next, and Mirrors Edge.... Hopefully EA let's them resume work on that after they fix broke ass bf4.

I can get behind that. The game was WAY too buggy when it was released. Still get a few crashes here and there myself. I'm okay with the game having been released how it is NOW, but yea, might hold off on bf5 for a while and let them sort the bugs out next go round.

Yes, locker is the worst map on bf4

Borderlands 2


My brother in-law is a developer at Valve and every time I see him I ask when HALFLIFE 3 will be out.

You need to be a bit more persistent... I would try handcuffs and a vice for his nuts. :laughing

FC3 Is still one of my favorite games, even if it's not really all that "good," the production values are awesome, level of detail astounding, and it's one of the few games that is so immersive you forget you're playing it.

Borderlands, on the other hand, is a skinner box with a loose narrative. :later
