I can't wait to play GTA V actually. I always wanted to try it in first person and everything should be good from the go so the online should be fine
 
if i got the buy 2, get one free from target last week with a gift receipt... how would i go about getting all 3 game exchanged for the ones coming out next week?

I got COD:AW, AC:UNITY, and DESTINY... but I'd rather get GTAV, DRAGON AGE, and I might just keep COD:AW.  The values on the receipt says like $40 per game so I don't think they can do an even exchange because the values are different.  Can someone explain this how to go about this to me I'ma slow *** brother.
 
Might be trading advanced Warfare for far cry. I really tried to believe it when my friends told me how impressed they were with this cod and I reluctantly picked it up on Monday and it still just isn't doing anything for me.

Campaign is actually pretty good. Maybe try and get through that before you trade it in.

I just beat it on Veteran so it took a while but I definitely appreciate the recommendation. I campaign wasn't bad at all

Ubisoft actually delivered with Far Cry 4



Through a rapid pixel-count, it's easy to see the PS4 absolutely delivers on this full 1920x1080 promise - with none of the frame-rate problems seen in its Ubisoft stablemate. For every pixel we a get new line of visual information, letting us soak in every detail of Ubisoft Montreal's ice-peaked terrain from afar. However, by nature Far Cry 4 also boasts a eclectic mix of visual elements; from rock geometry and dangling flag-lines, to broad swathes of foliage and fur shaders. While a 1080p base image is a powerful starting position, image treatment tailored to the each game's visual style is still crucial, and Far Cry 4 deserves extra credit in this department.
While we've yet to play the Xbox One version, the PS4 game's image quality stands several leagues ahead of its predecessor's cropped, heavily processed 1280x704 output on last-gen consoles. It's a level of clarity that demands a ramp-up in its other visual facets, and thankfully Ubisoft Montreal makes every effort to deliver a top-end experience on PS4.

But having dipped into the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of the previous game for a refresher, the absolute biggest upgrade for the newer entry on PS4 is its frame-rate. Where once we had a 20-30fps read-out with unrelenting tear across the screen, Sony's new hardware clears everything up. Despite its top-grade visual settings, the use of HRAA, plus an ambitious native 1920x1080 output, this game runs at a near faultless 30fps.
The solid performance here is reminiscent of the strong showing of Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag last year - there's the sense that Ubisoft has built upon and refined an existing engine technology and in PlayStation 4 we finally have the hardware required to enjoy a good balance between excellent visuals and good, consistent performance. Right now, we've only seen the game running on the Sony platform, but we're intrigued to see how Far Cry 4 scales on PC, and there's also the small matter of Xbox One to address. We suspect that it may run at a lower resolution than the PS4 build, but assuming it implements HRAA, the tell-tale temporal shimmering that's amplified by upscaling should be much less of an issue - it could be the most fascinating resolution comparison in quite some time. We'll update you on all three versions next week.

Solid framerate, visuals and no tearing.
This is what I like to see for the current gen.
 
Little big planet and far cry will be bought closer to Christmas since I know GTA will take up most of time.

No love for Little Big Planet 3? Nov 18th is a pretty big day.
I played the first one and loved it so I'm gonna give this one a try. It sucks that this game is lost in the crowd because it's such a unique game imo
 
I think the Black Friday bundle with LBP3 and Lego will be good for families.

I won't get it anytime soon though.
 
Assassin's Creed Rogue is getting forgotten and buried when it sounds like it has the better story. 

I'll be scooping both Unity and Rogue down the line, on the cheap.

I was more interested in Rogue from the beginning.I think that Rogue will hit current gen next year along with the PC version. I doubt Ubi will leave any money on the table. I still want to try Unity, despite what some people on here say. One of my boys picked it up and said he hasn't experienced any type of issues since he bought it with the exception of one time; he hit someone with a spear and it sent them all the way across the map

A preview of rogue that I saw made it sound like the game play will be very similar to black flagin terms of game play but yea I would have thought people would be all over it because of the story but last gen is dying a very rapid death.

Good point on rogue. They might add it to a pack like the anthology pack they did. As for Unity's issues, it's a shame it has a lot of them but it's not something I won't expect them to fix.

So many other games to play in the mean time.
 
Wife came back from Target today with Unity, Rogue and Halo MCC. Target says that I can take them back next week for an even exchange :pimp:

1. Super Smash Bros Wii U
2. Far Cry 4

@iYen  thats good to hear. I may just pick it up!
Shadow of mordor is like assassin's creed but it's funner because of it's combat system and nemesis system.

There's varied ways to kill uruks, so the combat doesn't get stale. You level up at a steady pace. The nemesis system makes killing uruks pretty satisfying.

Instead of killing nameless nemesis for hours, you'll be like finally I murked this dude who's killed me thrice.

The ost is awesome!

This game has great immersion. When you meet a "boss" this bad *** music starts playing. It's like a wwf entrance type deal.

There's a variety of missions to complete. You have main/side missions, challenges, and off-the beaten path.

Also I think the lotr movies are boring as hell.

tldr
