  • Alright guys, I've been watching the GTA trailers and I am just drooling all over my keyboard from it.

    The thing is, is that I have never owned a GTA game, but have played it with friends (basically free for all/drive wherever/raise hell) and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

    My question is what is the concept of the game? Is there like missions to do, story mode kinda thing? Or is it a kinda a game where you just do whatever the hell you want?

    Its funny because he starts to head towards it, thinking he is about to get a goody out of the care package. To his surprise, the care package had consumed some bath salts, and decided to just jump outside the map instead. He then slowly looks to his left where it went flying in disappointment. I actually laughed out loud at this.

    I hope that guy had a similar reaction like this guy in the video.

    Yes there is a very extensive story mode. This one will center around heists. You know bank robberies and things like that which has me super excited.

  • Gotta admit, I do enjoy playing BO2.

    Especially since I get to start out with the MTAR drool

    Don't think I've been this excited for a game since BF3.

    I am pretty damn excited for it. Can't wait to see what they do with MP.

    The vehicles look pretty badass too. And I think Planes and Choppers are coming back in V.

    Getting BF4 next. Hopefully 2143 or 1944 after that.

    I'd be okay with 2143 being along the same lines as 1943. If 1944 comes out, I demand a total conversion of BF3/BF4 into WWII with all of the maps from 1942 plus more. But I'm spoiled, so...

  • Am I wrong to want a game that returns to WWII? I can only imagine the storytelling and visual capabilities on next-gen. The depth. The tactical complexities. Ahh...I miss my favorite time-period.

    I'm a WWII addict... the problem is, even with modern graphics, they'll need to find a story they haven't told, which is tough. Not that I wouldn't love to revisit Normandy or Market Garden or Leningrad or Iwo Jima, 'cause trust me I would, but they're all still pretty fresh in my mind. They'd have to REALLY go over the top in those theaters to justify going back. But I'm all for it. Start with North Africa, IMO.

    BF 1944 can't be too far off. That is what I'm hoping for after BF4. I'm happy BF4 will be on next gen. 64 players, 60 frames per second, 1080p.... Can't wait. I'm not happy about BF4 because I would prefer either 1944 or 2143, but I'm just glad we get the true Battlefield experience with BF4.

    I think they could retell some of the same stories. Especially with the advances in technology.

    I really don't care though because I am just concerned with the MP portion. I really want a full fledged 1944.

    Yea, if I had to choose I would pick a full 1944 and a DLC 2143. Hopefully both are full games back to back. Would be perfect.

    See, as much as we all hate what CoD has become, nothing will ever come close to what the original CoD did for WWII FPS. I was a HUGE MoH:AA player back then, and CoD really turned the whole genre upside down. I must've played that first demo at least 50 times. Still play the game itself, actually.

    I won't be looking at COD for a good shooter. I play BO2, only for the arcade shooter feel. Battlefield takes a massive dump on anything COD has come out with in the last 6 years.

    I say that because I loved COD4 and thought it was a great game.

    I would like to see a game that includes a total take: fighting on the ground, tanks, planes, maybe naval battles...All the major battles on all the fronts and theaters.

    I mean with the new facial technology and graphics, it is possible now to tell engrossing stories and not just be some guy and bounce around between nationalities.

    Now you can have large, epic battles on screen as well.

    Ahh... I'm having a nerdgasm just thinking about it.

    That's why I mentioned the CoD titles for the WWII years. They were, far and away, the best of that era. As good as BF1942 was, and it was good and I played it a LOT, the original CoD is the best WWII FPS of all time, IMO. And that's saying a lot, coming not long after MoH:AA.

    Imagine the cut scene and facial graphics from Halo 4 in those settings. Love it or hate it, the cut scenes were PHENOMENAL.

    As far as MP goes 1942 is far better than any CoD ever released. The CoD MP was pretty bare bones back then.
