XBOX GAMING THREAD | PHIL TRUE 4K

Of course preference plays a factor but anything where people play against people will offer much more replay value than single player

Does Doubleshot feel funny to you? 


BXR and BXB is fine, but the timing on Doubleshotting feels off to me. It was my least used button combo as it was cause I dont Claw, and its impossible to do when you dont Claw.
[rule]Zelda can get unlimited plays and not get old.

Nah, everything feels the exact same to me. I double shot and don't play claw (on halo). Although I will say that your timing has to be even more precise than before and I think that's chalked up to the controller triggers being different than OG Xbox/360 controller triggers. Everything else feels similar IMO.

Sidebar: I agree that FPS games have the most replay value. I can honestly say I've never put in more hours on any game multi-player other than Halo/COD. I don't know if I'm an adrenaline junkie for FPS games, but everything else seems to get boring very quickly for me.

There's something about outsmarting an actual other person and ******** on them that is just....oooo weee It might be because the only thing me and the bros use to play was Halo 1,2, and 3 for years. Plus we use to compete for $.

Although this time around I'm trying to re-invent myself as a gamer, even though it's hard. Looking for new games to try out. Been looking at Destiny for a while too.

I saw it in the black friday thread I think microsoftstore will be selling it for that... will probably pick it up with that same portable hard drive that [@=/u/49486/DJYoung08]@DJYoung08[/@] posted earlier.


If I find the link I'll post it.

Seriously what other game do they have... beside COD nothing else has replay value like that. Only so long you can play single player games over and over again... just for the story.


I love Zelda OoT but honestly how often can you replay it even if it's the GOAT game... same as MGS1.


They can post up all the sales numbers and it is true the PS4 is ahead, but like [@=/u/37706/iYen]@iYen[/@] put that other PS dude who came in here trying to rustle jimmies... he's over here talking about Xbox's game lineup but he's streaming crap from last gen or whatever it was.


Even that MLB baseball game they swear by... how much of that **** can you play over and over again.

No matter what people say FPS will always have the most replay value until something else comes along to change that... Xbox exceeds in that field.

What FPS does X1 have that PS doesn't have? You can't count Halo bruh, it doesn't work properly

Srs. I never get this argument. The only 2 shooters that come to mind when I think of Xbox are Gears and Halo. That's it!

Replay value is not limited to just FPS. Hell I can fire up any Final Fantasy IV-XII game and it won't get old to me. I still play SF IV and UMvC3. Mario Kart never gets old

What other two do you need.

I can never get down with playing a single player game over twice never did it never will.. But someone can say the same about me enjoying a 10year old fps game cause I love the multiplayer.

Like blaster mentioned.. Its a new competitive game every time.. Single player is the same **** over and over

See what blastercombo wrote in his last post... he understands and has it right about the human element so to say. Fighting games too have great replay.

I find it hard to believe if anyone says they can continuously go back and replay those RPG’s after beating them over and over again… all the time. Like you would continuously replaying the multiplayer in COD, Halo, Gears, Killzone... hell no but if so then my hats off to you.

And yes I can count Halo because it’s still a FPS it’s just that the Multiplayer is broken for the time being. I can still go and play the campaigns and at least they're trying to work on it though and that's all I can ask. I have patience and I can wait and that tells you the greatness of that game is that the hardcore fanbase will wait it out... just as you said you would for Gears. Last gen when the PS network went down for a month+ dudes sat idly by while they worked out the kinks to get it up and running again so obviously something must have been great about the PS3 for them to not be able to play multiplayer for months but still hang in there and wait patiently.

This isn't directed at you Ricky D just speaking in General.

What was Xbox known for last gen... Sony dudes loved to talk crap about it all the time and say oh all that system is good for is FPS. I'm assuming if they pulled the data records for most played game on PS3 it would be the COD titles maybe... just assuming here. Looks like Destiny is probably the most played for PS4 seeing how big that thread is.

I don't go in that thread and I just ventured into to the Destiny thread today because of it being talked about in here and had some free time. I see dudes talking about people who bought the Xbox bought the wrong system how can you even explain that there isn't any right or wrong system to buy.

Also noticed now they're poking fun of Xbox for lowering it's price and doing whatever it can to stay competitive with PS4... they're supposed to do that. Did they forget how many different version of SKU's Sony put out for the PS3 when it was being dominated.

 

[djyoung08]

Without a doubt destiny is ps4's top played game right now.

Shame because ps fanboys always talk about how great the exclusives are and destiny does NOT deliver in content

 

[deleted]

just general questions I got a few answered like the faction system and maybe help with some raids here and there im lvl 24 and need better guns my armor is ok for now just need better guns

Once you rank a faction up, buy weapons from that faction's vendor.

You're probably better off asking questions in here....the Destiny thread can be very cliquey. You could also just PM me if you have any specific questions.

That struggle TV they're playing on too

Major props to Daigo though that was impressive.

Crazy how time flies. Justin Wong has come back strong in the fighting game scene. And Daigo has kind've faded away. This moment elevated SF3: 3rd strike to another level.

 

[deleted]

Man...I don't even play fighting games and I still watch that Daigo video on the regular.

VERY few single player games are even worth the second go around let alone any more.

Like you said, its all based on preference. I can play Final Fantasy games over and over. Same with old Castlevania games and almost any 1st party Nintendo game.

Without a doubt destiny is ps4's top played game right now.

Don't worry bruh, Nathan Drake makes his return next year

Uncharted is

 

[Ricky D]

Uncharted is

If I can get a Gears Collection next year + Uncharted 4, 2015 will be a success

 

[deleted]

Don't sleep on Bloodborne.

 

[townbidness]

Gears collection, sniping on canals for the next two years [emoji]128526[/emoji]

 

[Ricky D]

Don't sleep on Bloodborne.

It's on my radar. It was going to be a day one cop but now it comes out a week after FF Type-0 HD. I will probably put everything else on the back burner until I finish that.

 

[Ricky D]

Gears collection, sniping on canals for the next two years [emoji]128526[/emoji]

River from Gears 2 was my all-time favorite map

Anybody remember that glitch where you would throw down a smoke grenade and get stuck behind the fence with the gas tank

 

[blakep267]

besides pokemon and skyrim, I don't really play RPGs more than once. but those two are exceptions because there's just different paths to take. you can have an entirely different pokemon team or an entirely different class in skyrim. I've done archer,age, sword and shield and 2 handed play throughs of the entire game.

but then I tried to go back and play tomb raider remastered and lost the desire to play through more than the first hour or 2

 

[iYen]

M$ has proven to me that they want my $. Giev the amount and variety of awesome games they've released in it's console's first year. Here's to another great year for m$ and for their customers.

The marcus fenix collection will be something serious. That collection will probably tun on dedicated servers as well.

I love upload. Hopefully you can just stream directly to upload instead of having to use twitch. I don't like ads.

 

[Ricky D]

I liked the little bit of Skyrim that I played but overall I think Western RPGs are boring as hell. It seems like people only talk about the "open world". What else is there with those games?

 

[blastercombo]

Imagine if halo never gets fixed and the gears collection is just as bad :x

 

[shottadru]

 

You know you can ask stuff here also you need help with. That thread is basically back to normal my trolling has ceased...for now. What do you need help with?

just general questions I got a few answered like the faction system and maybe help with some raids here and there im lvl 24 and need better guns my armor is ok for now just need better guns

Do the daily weekly nightfall. Get to 26 do the raid. U can buy from Xur on the weekend. Do the bounties also, eventually he will give u a bounty for an exotic weapon not much to it bro. Let me know when you are playing I can help you. Im not as mean as i appear on the other thread lol I played with a lot of guys here and we always have a good time...well other than when we play Halo lol

U need to get your faction up to buy legendary gear I went with Dead Orbit but you can only get to like 28-29 with Legendary you need to Raid gear to get to 30. Once you hit 26 we can help you with the raid

I think both have been great for what they are. The only thing lacking from MS is the exclusives imo. I didn't expect a lot in year 1 but aside from Quantum Break what else do they have lined up? I love Xbox record that, Twitch app is clutch and I like the resume/suspend.

I don't see a difference in games as far as graphics so I don't understand the flak that MS gets. I have quite a few games on both consoles i.e. CoD AW, BF4, 2K.

Usually when people ask me which system is better or which should they get, I always tell them to base it off of exclusives and what are their friends are playing on.
