[COLOR=#red]I was able to download and play the Criminal Activity maps and weapons last night. Quick review:

Maps:
Black Friday - out of all four maps, this is my least favorite. that's not to say it's bad or anything, it was just my least favorite. very linear, the action was fast paced and fun. the reason it as my least favorite is I had so much fun on the three other maps. closed infantry battles happen a ton here. a lot of tight corners, a lot of multi-kills with grenades. being multi-level you would think there would be quite a bit of sniping but i found close to no one on the second level. (again, I only played all the maps one time through. daddy was tired after a very long day).

The Beat - another multi-level map set at night. if you have a dark outfit unlocked (black or elite something) equip it. gives you a little edge for sure. it's like a random housing area, you can either stay on the outside edges or rooftops to snipe, but there is a Ton of cover staying in the middle of the map. Found some decent success staying in the middle. I played all infantry mode as this DLC was geared towards the enforcer. There are so many little nooks an crannies to hide or flank from it's insane the amount of possibilities. Is it the prettiest map? No, but it's a lot of fun and very fast paced if you are into that.

Backwoods - Tied for my favorite map, this one is HUGE. Lots of open space and a good sniper will have a lot of success on this map. this map has a ton of little hills and places of cover. there are plenty of places to get said cover, specifically the bridge, where it seemed a lot of the action would take place and between the two hills before it. like the civil war the cops would be lined up on one hill (just north of the bridge) and the robbers would be lined up on the other side, a little ravine sits in-between the two. that little battle sequence lasted a solid 5 minutes. flanking in this game is very difficult at certain parts of the maps. because everyone is so high up at times they can see a good portion of the map side you're trying to flank. all in all a very fun map and one BF conservatives will enjoy.

Code Blue - This map is obviously my second favorite map. Again another big map, plenty of places to snipe but also plenty of cover with the club inside. the rooftop on top of the club and across the street is premium for a sniper, everyone wanted to run into the club and a lot of the action took place there. i had some solid time in there but did most of my damage on the outside of the club with everyone running up not properly coming in like they should. think everyone was just excited and rightfully so. there are quite a few entrances into the club, so don't be food and use the same door everyone else is using, go around the side. the level looks exactly how you think it looks, it's gorgeous. again, if you have black... wear it for a slight advantage. plenty of dark corners you can take advantage of.

Guns:
M1A1 - A lot of fun to play with, not a lot of kick. i no scoped a lot of these kills (think I had around 15 switching off between different guns). worked well in the mall, i don't have any stats or anything, can't help you there but i'm sure it's out there. unlike all the other guns, this one you can play with any class.

SG510 - put very little time into this as i knew there wasn't going to be a ton of time to play last night. thing kicks like a mule. will update when i put some hours in.

FAL - want a new favorite gun? you probably found it. by far my favorite battle rifle. the range on this thing is awesome, three hits to the chest and you're down but i was able to pull off some one shot head shot kills as well. the stability is really low (like 15?) but i found, for me at least, it was very easy to handle. had a lot of fun with this gun, looking forward to unlocking all of it's load outs to see what i can do with it.

KSG12 - a shotgun with a large mag (can hold 14 rounds i think?), thing is awesome. it's a shotgun... ton of damage...

New Game Mode:
Bounty Hunter - I played this mode for all four maps just to see what it was about. Was a lot of fun as COD players I'm sure know. I was able to bait a lot of people with a few coins from people I killed in front of me. Trying to attack and take the coins was a problem... everyone runs for these things at one time so you get a nice clash in the middle. Had fun playing it for sure.

Any other questions feel free to ask, running tonight after work for a little bit if anyone wants to get on.[/COLOR]

So before I pull the trigger, this is a good gaming monitor?

Amazon product ASIN B007HSKSMI
Also, I want 2 monitors. 1 for the Xbox one for a PC. I don't really feel like I need to buy another 200 dollar monitor for web browsing and casual PC games. Can anyone recommend a cheap but solid PC monitor?

Thanks!
 
I just realized memphis is from the future.

The thread title's been xbox won for all this time, now look at where xb1's at.

Memphis grace us with what's in store for the xb1.

My girl literally just bought this for me over the weekend.  Set it up on Monday, I love it.  

Great size/anti-glare screen.

2 HDMI ports

Customizable Picture

RTS modes

FPS modes

The only thing I don't like about it are the speakers, it just sounds terrible, but I use a headset anyway.

Haven't tried PC gaming on it yet, but I'm sure the 1ms response time will be appreciated.  

I recommend it for console gaming and mild PC gaming.  It'll only play up to 60FPS so if you have a nice PC or plan on playing with high FPS, there are other BenQs to consider.
 


This was hilarious last night had the whole party chat laughing how we could not get control on ball but i score on that weird header
 
Just caught up on the thread, haven't been in here since last Thursday. New UI is looking really nice and backwards compatibility is :pimp:. I'll have to check YouTube for all of the game reveals but it looks like E3 was lit.

What's the preview program you guys are talking about though? You can play games early?

Preview program is to try out backwards compatibility

It took almost 2 years for backgrouad audio to get 20K votes.

It;s going to take forever for Rock Band 3/Guitar Hero Warrior's of Rock to get added.
