Hey all, you know the deal...
The other thread hit over 1,000 posts and we have server issues when that shit happens so here she be, a fancy new mega thread.
Anyway, just a quick rundown.
Post anything and everything gaming in here. Console games, handheld/mobile games or PC.
Playing something you love or maybe hate? Find a hidden gem on Steam? Let us know via a review. Try to make sure you give a good rundown on it. Graphics, sound, storyline, overall gameplay and replayability. Let's keep it at a 1-10 scale.
Thanks to all that left me awesome rep comments/posts and even pm's thanking me for the many reviews I wrote.
Just an FYI, developers do read our comments in here I guess. CD Projekt Red (of Witcher 3) was one that stopped by.
Anyway, thanks all for your input and as always, no griefing. [Reply]

Evolve
Killzone: Shadow Fall
Assassin's Creed: Unity
I've played a couple rounds of Evolve. It's fun, but I think it'll get old really quickly playing solo. I prefer playing as the monster. The round usually ends extremely quickly or lasts long enough for me to get overpowered and win pretty easily. I think the leveling system for the different characters and monsters will be the only thing that keeps me playing.
I played through the first two missions of Killzone, and it seems like a fun game. Interesting, futuristic setting that I haven't really dabbled in before.
I've heard from a friend that AC: Unity isn't worth a penny and that it requires a ton of updates just to start playing. Since I have no internet, I haven't even put it in the console.
What're your thoughts on these?
Evolve is basically a multiplayer only game. Killzone is ok. Very pretty game that was the title that was intended to show off the PS4. A bit redundant. Unity is very underrated due to the bugs and faulty mp. The game is very good now. Hopefully you’ll be able to connect online and DL the updates. [Reply]

Glad you are enjoying it and I hope you see it through better eyes than I do right now. Still playing but losing interest.
Yes its a fun game but man the story was what 8 hours? way too short, not that this is a story based game but meh. Also they need to add RNG back in, I would be more than happy with Destiny 1 as it seems you are correct there is no endgame.
On the plus side the Art director took over the direction of the live team and has promised to give us something to play for. Really need to have better randomized loot as it seems every weapon is the same, I love games where you can hunt down the best stuff. Heard many crazy reactions to people finding stuff like the Gallahorn(sp?) and would love to add more RNG as well as a reason to do the raid.
Bungie lays out plans for Destiny 2 improvements
New systems and rewards to give our most engaged players additional, optional pursuits
Better incentives for players who complete challenging Prestige activities
Better rewards and replay value for strikes, adventures, and Lost Sectors
Private matches for the competitive community (we are targeting early 2018)
Crucible tuning like adjusted Supremacy scoring and better spawning rules
Better incentives for completing Crucible matches (and penalties for quitting competitive games)
Continued improvements to Iron Banner and Faction Rallies, including uniqueness of rewards
Changes to make the mod economy more interesting and impactful.
Ongoing improvements to Exotics, including adjustments to reduce instances of duplication
New ways to spend surplus currency and materials (looking at you Legendary Shards).
An emote interface that allows players to equip Salty, Spicy Ramen, Six Shooter, and Flip Out all at the same time

This is what I've found so far. I think I'll have to wait for Thanksgiving and bring my console home to do the updates.

Hardly! The number of all-nighters I've pulled this year astonishes me. Then again, "if you wait until the last minute, it only takes a minute." The PS4 just fills in the gaps when I'm recovering from "killing, working out, and learning." :-)
I had a Buddy that went to west point. He has climbed mountains killed people lived abroad for many years. His Facebook is crazy with different lands regions and experiences. [Reply]
Been playing Cuphead and Witcher 3: Blood & Wine. Surprised that Witcher 3 still holds up (haven't played since it came out), though the graphics aren't very impressive to me anymore (obviously still kind of a landmark for an "open" world game). [Reply]
