Can't say I understand the hype. Looks exactly like CoD except you can wall jump and has robots.

I just don't get it.

Just play it. I haven't had this much fun with an FPS in forever and this was just a beta. COD has been dead (to me) for several years now. No more dbags sitting in a corner aiming at a door since there are 8 ways to get into any given room. The wall running and double jumping opens up all kinds of possibilities. Love it.

Anybody else picking up Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare on the 25th? It looks like a lot of fun, I think:

I've invested a few hours into it, and it's a fun game. I've spent all of my time so far in the co-op horde mode, which actually reminds me a lot of the ME3 multiplayer (which I loved). I've only played with Rando Newmans, but even the Normal difficulty is hard. I think there's two levels above that, and I don't think I'd try it without a premade group.

It's a great looking game, too; it's very colorful, and the humor of the series carries over really well in the animation. Even in frustrating moments, I don't find myself raging to quite the same extent as I have in more "real" shooters because of how cheerful, which is nice.

Although it's accessible to kids, it's not "just for" them. I'd say that it's definitely worth the $40 just based off of the time I've spent with it so far.

Rented it,

It is fun at first, but then you realize how ****ing stupid some of it is.

It is a bitch to mute players while in game, then they do not give you a way to mute the other team at all.. ****ing stupid. But you are thinking, why does that matter? Because for some ****ing reason you can hear them during the games. Mute all would solve that shit.

Then, upgrading weapons is a random draw. No skill involved, just get lucky with the sticker pack. Or unlucky.

three maps is it for tdm, I would call it something else, but most of the idiots never revive. so it is tdm.

The graveyards game would be fun, but most of the idiots that play it do not play the objective at all so if you have four out of 12 people that are not idiots do the objective you can steam roll it. I have only seen two maps on that one. There could be more. Doubt it.

And the way you get points is ****ing stupid, you can be a boss during the game. But guess what? You do not get points for helping your team out. None. And you can kill the bosses, but again you get no points even if you did 90% of the damage but missed the final shot. Most people let other people do the work then fire to get lucky and steal the kill. Dumb.


It is a beautiful game though. I like the sticker as random appearance changes and consumables, but it should not be there for weapon upgrades.

Definitely rent only.

titanfall was okay during beta, but I have feeling it will get old quick with so few loadouts and titans. Maybe for 30bucks.

My buddy downloaded that stupid preview of new features that drops this month, and because of that, and some of us didn't, or weren't invited, we cant party up, or play games together. I don't understand this logic by Xbox. Its so stupid.

My kids love Plant vs. Zombies......I've enjoyed it as well. Probably a decent pickup.

Alright, anyone familiar with quickly fixing NAT strict settings preventing me from fully connecting to Live?

I have Uverse (DSL) which I recently I added an Asus AC68U wireless router to, which requires a bit of settings tweaks to work with the dsl because the modem is an all in 1 gateway.

I finally got that working as It should, and the wireless speed increase is fantastic connecting thru the New A/C router. Not a single other issue connectionwise both WAN and LAN, and I've connected and tried 15+ devices without a problem.

Until getting it to work with Live- I guess PS network has been causing same issue and I can't find a definitive answer / solution.
Won't work via wired or wireless. It will connect and say it has internet, but can't establish connection with multi function or player network, and mentions NAT is set to strict even though I've searched over the modem and router config and it looks kosher... ?

Look up port forwarding for X Box Live on youtube. Several videos on how to do it to fix your NAT.

Ya, I just didn't want to screw up the tweaks I had to get the gateway and
a/c router to play nice. It's crazy, I've never had to baby a setup as much as getting this stupid gateway to work in conjunction with everything as it should.

Thanks!

Titan Fall is the only thing tempting me right now for either console.
