Hey guys...
Thought we could use a thread to help one another out with purchasing new and used games. Now that the next gen consoles are out and the holiday season will soon be upon us, many new games are going to drop. We've been throwing 'reviews' in several different threads or making new threads for each game. I thought we might like to converge and discuss them as a whole. Whether you're on PS3, 360, PS4, XB one or even a wii, PC and Mac, this is a repository for what you're playing and how you rate it.

Let's try to do a 1-10 scale for each game. Take into account the following:

Storyline
Challenge
Replayability
Graphics
Online functionality
Downloadable content
AI/npc's
Price
Length of gameplay

You can use all or some of those as a guide to score the game. If there are other aspects you'd like to tell as about with your game, please do so. These are just suggentions.

Please note what system, (if necessary i.e. It being exclusive to a system) you're playing on and let us know what you think.

1. Sucks, I'd rather watch Brodie Croyle play as our starter. This game is dogshit.
2. Don't waste your time. It's obviously been programmed by a bunch of chimps with syphilis.
3. I'd rather eat tapioca pudding out of my grandmothers colostomy bag, then stick my tongue in her stoma.
4. Meh, there's really better stuff to do, (like waxing my pubes) but I was lazy.
5. This is kinda like purgatory. It's not the best place to be but it could be worse.
6. Not bad at all... It's like I just scored a BJ from my hot first cousin.
7. Entertaining as all hell, kinda like the feeling where you just drank enough not to puke and can still walk.
8. Buy this game, I'm super-cereal. It's got stuff that makes my nipples tingly.
9. HELL F'ing YEAH! I'd talk more about it but I'm gonna be locked in place for a week just playing this ****er.
10. This game is like godfather two and the empire strikes back joined forces to **** your face off with wow. I'm taking all of my PTO days and going on FMLA.

EDIT: We can also discuss upcoming/all things gaming in here as well.
Enjoy!

Douchebag Microsoft...

there is a few games i got from them for free that was pretty decent, but i dont have an xbox anymore. I doubt ill ever get an Xbox 1 unless they pull off some crazy game i want to play and nope Halo isnt it, not even close.

FYI: I'm running an I7 and AMD 7700/1GB. GTA 5 is on very high and smooth as glass.

This game likes to utilize the processor. There is a graphics option to ignore the over VRAM limit barrier. My graphics options are nearly 2GB. Ignoring the over limit barrier lets me keep those settings.

Was getting minimum of 90, maxing at sometimes 200+ on 1080p full max basic graphics no MSAA or motion blur, along with max distance scaling and high detail flight, with a single 780 and a 4.4ghz 3930k. I just got my other 780 back from RMA, so now with 2x 780s and adding now 4x MSAA, 4x reflection MSAA and TXAA I am minimum hitting 160s, most the time im hovering around 210-220.

Yes I realize my monitor only shows me 60 of those frames every second and I don't care~

Excellent performance~

Do not buy this game until it's full release. They have serious hacker problems.

That's a really fun game.

So not sure if anyone followed but steam announced paid mods for Skyrim. Everyone lost their collective minds. Even the holy GabeN himself was downvoted to hell on reddit when he commented.

The good news is Valve back peddled and actually said "we dont know what we are doing."

I don't have to be better than you - I can have more money and gain a competitive advantage.

I watched it all pretty much realtime from right when it began.

Got an email from change.org saying 'we did it!' with 133k signatures on the petition.

It was kind of like when CP did SOC.

PCMR just did SOM in the same kind of organic **** getting ripped off mentality~

Can't believe they backpedalled like that. That's unlike them when $$$ comes into it. Pretty awesome.
Modders deserve (well, some of them) recognition and the "pay what you feel" thing is a good idea. I'm glad steam went back on that.

Ya i've been watching it, i'm not totally against it but then again it's something that's always been free. Therefore Donate if you feel like it, community DLC for the total loss.

Imon Yourside · 05-01-2015, 06:43 AM

This actually came out for PC

ragedogg69 · 05-01-2015, 11:11 AM

Two thoughts: The top of the second inning was the worst fielding I have ever seen. Whoever was playing is awful. Do all baseball games still not have stepping animation for batters and pitchers? I remember that shit playing Griffey Jr. on N64. Can they not have the pitcher walk to the other side of the bag? Or the batter reaching for an outside pitch on his swing?
