@CAMAROBOY69 I agree with you about Halo 4. I loved it. Campaign, multiplayer, everything. A lot of Halo players more dedicated than I hated it, though, and laud Halo 3 as the best in the series..

Same thing happened when Halo 1 went to Halo 2, then Halo 2 to Halo 3, then Halo 3 to Reach, then Reach to Halo 4. Some people just get stuck in nostalgia and don't want to move on. 4 is the best IMO but I still truly love the Halo 3 co-op campaign. Battling 2 huge scarabs in the Covenant level is something that never gets old to me. So epic especially with 4 players.

Awesome, my disc for 4 broke, so I'm stuck with just 3, been playing it a tiny bit off and on past week or so.

The Master Chief Collection for the X1 will have Halo 1, Halo 2, Halo 3, AND Halo 4 along with the Halo 5 beta all in 1 package for $59.99. I will be getting that for sure.


Now that the Destiny beta is finished I have been playing World of Tanks again.
 
I found my 360 controller a while ago so I'm playing Forza 4 at the moment. This game is huge, it has taken me over 20 hours to do the Japanese manufacturer races block (the smallest block besides the World Championship column), it's just a shame it's the same few tracks over and over again. The fantasy circuits are awful, too. I'm having fun building my own cars, though, the sounds are appreciated too; if I tried to play GT6 this much I'd no doubt fall asleep.

On my PC I'm playing Elite: Dangerous, or at least I have for a few hours but I don't want to burn out on it before it's released properly. That's a really great game though.

Yeah you are not kidding about how huge the F4 campaign is. I played quite a bit of it and I think I am only 5% through the campaign. :eek: Its massive.

It's not really big.

There is loads of races, but most of them are the same race, just different class. So the same thing over and over again. ^^

Even if the races are similar the game is still massive. No one can deny that. I cant even comprehend the amout of time it would take to get through all the races in the F4 campaign. Would take months and months of solid racing.

BTW "There is loads of races" is a contradiction to "its not really big". ;)

FM4 is a huge game. The events list is ridiculous. :D

Yeah, the tracks do get repetitive, but then again they do in most, if not all racing games, don't they?

I'm not a big fan of the fantasy tracks in FM4 either; they ruined Kaido and Camino with the new lighting and updated graphics engine. I feel the tracks looked much better in FM3. But I suppose comprises have always been made in console games- in F4's case, better lighting and car models, more cars on track, slightly better particle effects and higher detail engine sounds and physics.. this ain't no high end over the top PC.

Gosh, the sounds... okay, I went back to FM4 recently after playing GA. And now I don't feel like going back to GA, cos' of the weak engine sounds on off-throttle. I'm sure a fix is coming with the next version.

Best driving games I've experienced on the X360: FM2, 3, 4 and Dirt 2, 3.

^^ I didn't include GA on the list, even though it's a great racing game.. lack of certain detail in engine sounds is starting to get to me. Those are VERY important in a racing game IMO - can mean the difference between having a distinct connection or disconnection with what the car's doing.
 
I'm learning Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3. That will be a long-term thingie I realise now in order to be able to fight at all. So aside from that for a couple of days now I've been going back into Ghost Recon: Future Soldier again. Both playing guerilla with a friend as well as finishing different tactical challenges and elite campaing at the same time. Elite is still very easy. Basically just keep your head down a lot more. You can simply order your compadres to cap everyone since they are stealth gods & crack shots and hardly ever go down and not do anything yourself for whole missions. Still fun.

Also, I recently finished Devil May Cry and going to continue with DMC2 (HD Collection).
 
GTR2. And I'm finding it very hard to play with a 3rd party, 90 degree lock-to-lock wheel with broken FFB. It's like eating soup with a fork, especially with the downloaded mods and with all the assists turned off. When I'm not chewing my fingers off in frustration, I'm playing DiRT 3.

PC
  • Spintires demo
360
  • World of Tanks- After a lot of hard work I was finally able to upgrade my level 7 tank. It did so well I ended a match last night with 3,000 points in damage to the other team!!!! Still so addicted to this game.
  • Halo 4 - Played a fair amount of mp.
  • *Dead Space 3- FINALLY had a chance to finish up this co-op campaign with my brother. I have beat the game at least 5-6 times but never had a chance to finish it with my brother. Had a great time.*
  • GTA5 - Played a little more of the mp.
  • Titanfall - Still trying to get my last challenge for level 5. Need to kill 5 pilots while auto-ejecting. So difficult.

DS 3... what a brilliant title! I actually gave up on it a few months back playing on the hardest setting... disc 2.. when you shoot the main villian..he disappears behind a large rock and this huge monster pops up... shooting orange balls at you.. and laying' out frikkin eggs every minute or so... man I can't kill that thing. I want to move on to the end!

How is GA on the PC? Are the off-throttle sounds any better? Doubt it. I bet after the texture pack, there's no evidence of banding in the sky or on some car reflections...

Surprisingly better then I expected... But... the sound dissapoints a bit.
 
Grid Autosport and Forza 5.

I'm also watching a seventeen hour movie of someone playing Tales Of Destiny on the PSX if that counts.

Yes I truly enjoyed DS3. Played through it with many friends on a variety of difficulties. Tried ultimate survival with a co-op buddy and we eventually gave up about half way. We got stuck in a part where explosive sacks instantly kill us and decided it was time to be done with the game on that setting.


I have been playing these recently.

X1
  • Forza 5 (level 14)
  • BF4 (only had time to play half a game but LOVED it!!)
360
  • World Of Tanks
  • Halo 4
  • Minecraft
  • Titanfall
 
Ace Combat Infinity and Soul Calibur: Lost Swords have been taking most of my gaming time recently.
 
PS4 :
Assassin's Creed IV - Mainly playing this- Fun game
Killzone Shadow Fall - Just finished the single player was fun - playing a little multiplayer
Trine 2 The Complete Story - playing here and there.. interesting and fun game
Blacklight Retribution - a little here and there fun quick free online shooter
Infamous Second Son - found it used for $32 will start when it arrives

PS3:
Grid Autosport - was playing almost daily till I got ps4 - just lazy and not setting up the wheel.
Free ps+ games randomly but not often (Crysis 3, Bioshock Infinite, etc)
 
Just finished South Park Stick of Truth and was surprised it was such a great game. I suggest you rent it or buy it. However, trophy collecting isn't going to be easy. Miss one item and you'll have to play the entire game over again and collect EVERY THING all over again to get the trophy.
 
Currently playing through the story mode of GTA V - since a friend of mine gifted me a copy as a late birthday present - while taking a break from GRID Autosport and wait for the incoming console patch and the Sprint Pack DLC.

I must say, even with the horrid framerate issues, Rockstar did one hell of a job from a technical standpoint. I'm impressed and really enjoying the game so far as well.
 
Tales of Xillia 2 came out today, so that is gonna be all I play for a while. I also pretty much played since I got it non stop.

The game really is a handful of "open worldness" isn't it? :)

Soul Caliber (3 or 4, can't remember) for Dreamcast. The memories...

The legend will never die! I loved that game (Soul Calibur, I mean).

I've been playing more Forza 4 and BF4, I managed to complete quite a few assignments yesterday to unlock the SR338, Unica 6, riot shield and 3GL, and I'm now a stone's throw from the UMP-9 (another 16 repair ribbons - I started the day needing 29). As for Forza, I feel like I'm barely making a dent in all the stuff I have left to complete, it's kind of frustrating in a way especially since when I finish one event I go to the next and it's just different layouts of the same circuits. Also the fantasy circuits are awful, they're so gimmicky.
 
3DS: Pokemon Y, forever shiny hunting. DS: Advance Wars: Days of Ruin, what a fantastic game! Wii U: Mario Kart 8, Game and Wario, Super Mario 3D Land, Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD
