Video Game Thread: Retired

  • boxybrown said...

    We should change this thread title to "Official Video Game Thread" since I've been meaning to make one of those anyway. We can just keep one thread going and talk about anything and everything video game related. Got a random gameplay video? Post it here. Wanna get some people together for some online multiplayer? Gather them up here.

    Sounds good to me.

  • Pinned. Anything video games will go in this thread. Good idea boxybrown. Games are a very popular topic on this board.

    Black Ops is the same game with a different skin. WHen is the last time Activision/Treyarch did anything to their graphics? I'll tell you. 2005 when they were developing COD4. Why is that? Because since they gear the game towards kids, it always sells like crazy, so why spend money to upgrade anything? Just slap a new name on it, make new maps, add a few weapons and sell millions.

    The Battlefield series has used 3 different game engines in their last 3 titles because they are always upgrading. They also give out their DLC for free. FREE. COD is up to 1200 MS points per map pack. That is 1/4th the total cost of the game for a map pack.

    Just a few examples of why I prefer DICE over Treyarch/Infinity Ward.

    I'm done talking about it though. Don't want to argue. Like I said, people like different things. Many people don't like Battlefield because you actually have to have skill to be great at the game. That is the dead honest truth.

    I wasn't trying to argue with you. I was just curious what you didn't like about Black Ops. I'm sure Battlefield is a fun game. I just haven't played it.

    Never mind. I sent Noah a PM about it. I don't want to overstep any boundaries. I'll wait for him to PM me back about pinning threads.

    Either way I'm sure we'll keep it going. Lots of gamers on here.

    For sure. XBOX magazine gave Tiger Woods 12 a 6.5 FWIW. I saw some people asking about it. I haven't read about it yet.

    Game Informer said it was great. I have really come to trust their reviews as of late.

    Hell yeah. I loved all the Halo 1 - 3. I used to play Halo 1 on xbconnect. That was before XBL. It was the chit.

  • I never did get into Halo. I can see why people liked it so much but I never cared for it. I generally prefer the more realistic shooters like BF. Until Crysis 2 came out that is.

    Aussie

  • I played the Halo 1-3 but never any of the others. I have never played any COD multiplayer games either but from what i have heard they are "noobish" no offense to anyone who loves them. The games dice makes just has that realness feel to it. As MarineMountie said you have to have skill to be good. mrt

    Some of my old smoking buddies got me hooked on Halo back in college. Good Times!

    Same here. I played Halo 1 but I played the crap out of Halo 2 in college. I logged a good bit of time in 3 also. I've played Reach and ODST but got tired of them fast. I think I'm just not interested in the series anymore.

    Yeah no doubt. XBconnect.com and you clicked on the game you wanted. That was awesome.

  • I was never into online gaming until Modern Warfare. That changed everything for me. Then BFBC2 came out and I really loved that game.

    You can add me if you like. My name is the same as on here. I am sure I will be playing sometime soon. I can't stay away from that game to long.

    alright i will add you tonight or tomorrow at some point. I am always looking for new people to squad up with because it is difficult to win on this game without a good squad

    A good squad is a must.

  • No doubt about that. I will be in a game against lower ranking players and have higher level ones on my team but no one wants to squad up and we usually lose. it doesn't matter how you are individually as long as you play well as a team. Communication is vital

    That is why I prefer that game so much over COD. It is more about the objectives than just getting kills.
