Just realized, if this is true, then Ubi will likely release the AC collection PX mentioned a few days ago this year, followed by the next installment the next year
I hope this is true...Syndicate is not the best, you can tell the series is really starting to stale out. Black flag was amazing though, so I have no worries if they were to redesign the franchise. There are also only so many more historical moments to take part in before the assassins are driving cars gta style
No, no, no! We need this technology for our smartphones, not a controller! What a waste lol. Seriously though, I can't imagine this battery having much life in it. I'll just stick to my play and charge battery
I thought this was debunked months ago. A disc-tray-less smaller xbox would be a confusing waste of time. The vanilla XB1 does 10x more than an apple tv already, why bother
Ooo, Don't Starve looks tempting! I'm still waiting for Far Cry 3 though.
@stylon - The Escapists is ridiculously challenging in a good way, it requires LOTS of patience and trial and error. I really enjoyed my time with it, I only broke out of the first two prisons!
Even on launch day, Titanfall ran flawlessly everytime I played it. No lag, no timeouts, nothing. If every game ran like that and Halo 5, maybe it does make a real difference
@BAMozzy Yes, exactly! Witcher 3 is very cinematic and political, and there's nothing I hate more than politics. Same thing for Dragon Age, it's just all mumbo jumbo to me, and I get ridiculously bored. Just give me a bad guy to attack!
1. Halo 5 - spectacular gameplay, and the continued post launch content is really awesome. 2. Mortal Kombat X - As my first fighting game, I continue to be blown away at how great this game is. I'm sad no one else listed this 3. Borderlands: The Handsome Collection - I know it's a remaster, but I never played the Pre-Sequel on the 360, and I fell in love with the series all over again because of it.
I also wana list my 3 biggest game disappointments of this year too! Please don't hate me! lol
1. Witcher 3 - I thought this game was horrifically boring, and I had such high expectations. That was a sad day 2. Rare Replay - Most of the old games on here were really boring too, I'm just spoiled from AAA games I guess. Battletoads arcade was amazing though! 3. Fallout 4 - I believe this janky game can still be saved in my mind, once moddings and patches come!
Fable 3 was so flippin fun, I really don't like where this series is headed either. I was expecting a huge, Skyrim-esque game in Fable, but instead it looks like a mobile phone game...
Mortal Kombat X! With the recent announcement of the Kombat Pack 2 that will have the Alien in it, I've been nerding out on this game so much it's shameful. When not doing that, it will be ESO, trying to get my argonian Drinks-Much-Pepsi strong enough to save the world.
@Utena-mobile Every game preview I've played has been....underwhelming to say the least o.0 I really want to be proved wrong, I've been real excited for this
I would like to see Yoshi's Island, Yoshi's Story, and Yoshi's Wooly World on Xbox! I wish MS would buy Nintendo and have all their games on a traditional Xbox console, not some ridiculous WiiU thing.
@BAMozzy I agree, the Sparrows in Destiny need something more substantial, they are so boring and generic. I usually just walked, it was more fun than riding the sparrow
@SuperKMx According to my friends I'm "cursed", I always find all the bad glitches in games, so I am not much of a fan of seeing them. Eventually it just becomes a chore to play instead of being fun, and I get flustered and quit. It annoys me people play the same game as I do but have a smoother and more fun experience . Do appreciate your review as always, excellent job! Thanks for addressing my concerns
@SuperKMx
I've had to restart 3 times because a glitch in the main quests would prevent me from moving on, not to mention the many small glitches. What about the Master Chief Collection? Super buggy but with phenomenal gameplay but everyone attacked it, Fallout is also super buggy and everyone loves it. I think it's something about Bethesda, they can do no wrong in the eyes of anyone.
I can't believe this game gets away with soo many glitches, but other games that do the same get assaulted by everyone. This game is so sloppy and unprofessional, but there are times when it can be be great, but then another glitch rears in and ruins everything. I can easily forgive a few glitches in big games like this, but it is beyond excessive. I also hate the settlement building system, it's so janky and out of place for an open world game, but at least it's optional. Maybe after the fifteen patches it desperately needs, and when modding comes along, I'll enjoy it a lot more :/
@Gamer83 I got Sleeping Dogs on the XB1 and I loveedd the awesome fisticuff combat, way more satisfying than GTAV's generic shooting
@Utena-mobile Lol I worked in retail for a TJ Maxx for a very brief time before getting my current job. I could not figure out how they folded the pants on the hangers, it was way beyond my skillset. I also found a brownie tucked behind the underwear section... that's when I knew in my heart retail was not for me @KelticDevil What is Overlord? I heard it was like Pikmin, one of the best games ever made. And isn't there a new Overlord in development?
@KelticDevil I really enjoyed it while it lasted, some moments are really cool. I'd say I got my value out of it, but the game needs ALOT more substance to it
Like the article says, why even release it at all? It seems like they tried to grab a quick buck but failed and are now trying to play the being nice way to avoid PR damage. Not very respectable to me...
I had a Gamecube instead of an Xbox, but I loved some multiplat games. For some reason I really took to Pac Man World 2, and Turok Evolution, heck yeah!
I got the Taken King bundle, and even with all the dlc for free I got bored of this in a week. I don't understand how this game maintains such popularity, but to each their own.
