The Gaming Thread

I'm interested in Wasteland 2, I just don't feel like paying for it.

@theacidskull: I just watched the trailer. It looks good but I'm more exited for halo and assassins creed myself. It's incredibly irritating how bad platform devides are becoming now. I mean I spend £430 on an xbox one then tons of different game developers decide to put different games of a certain franchise in different consoles (I'm looking at you ubisoft).

But yeah, bloodborne looks good, the bit with the werewolves made me want to see more.

That's Remedy for you, they are one of the few game developers who have never made a bad game they just take forever to make a games.

Quantum Break and The Escapists are the 2 games I liked most at gamescom.

To put into perspective for those who didn't play that King Arthur game. It starts off just like the movie when the Woad tribe attack the Roman convoy with Arthur's company coming into the rescue. The very first mission in the game is an escort which you need to defend the carriage from endless waves of Woads, with the bloody thing moving so slowly to the destined location which is pretty long too. Then you have an time limit along with an scort mission in the same time (just effing 15 minutes intto the game -_-)

Eternal War was worse tho... The controller scheme was f*cked, your attack button was R1 which included both guns and hand to hand combat and the hit detection was miserable, along with being forced to fight against more waves of enemies in very linear corridors.

Ganon is playable in Hyrule Warriors

So I guess this game will reveal that Ganon and Blanka are long lost brothers.

@dragonborn_ct: King Arthur sounds terrible. The movie was decent though.

I vaguely remember eternal war, mainly because it was one of these games that I didn't enjoy and one that I didn't finish.

@thedailybagel: I definitely agree, the movie itself was okay (not too keen on "realistic" movie depictions of myths and legends) and yep I didn't even bother finishing that game either.

I would be totally okay with it, since that would make Ganon Brazilian HUEHUEHUEHUE ^________^

@theacidskull: I think they'll probably be going back to what made halo 2 and 3 so great. Halo 4 was great but it wasn't as good as reach or halo 3 IMO. But yeah, it looks great and I'm practically jumping up and down in anticipation for it.

Am really amazed by Alan Wake. I've heard Bag of Bones by Stephen King was an inspiration? Makes sense with the quote at the beginning I suppose. xD

How are you doing, Immortal? Playing any good video games? =O

And man, that P.T. demo! O__O Anybody here played?

We gotta defeat the ghosties, Skully! =O *whips out a vacuum cleaner*

Never played Silent Hill but was immediately interested when I heard Del Toro and Kojima are involved. Now that is some team!

I was so scared while playing! XD There's quite a few jumpscares in P.T.

But man, the last puzzle is challenging.

It's supposedly randomized but it's recommended to plug a microphone into the PS4 controller. 0.o

It did work. Beated the last puzzle in minutes with the microphone, but man, who would of guessed? XD

Am wondering if Silent Hills will have multiple realities...Last year, Hideo Tweeted he wanted to work with Norman Reedus and Ryan Gosling...Kinda wondering if Gosling will be in this game as well. 0.o

Ah, I didn't know that! =O Have heard about Pyramid Head though I'm thinking of starting out with 4? xD The holes remind me of Alice In Wonderland.

Is Skully a fan?

Norman Reedus is very handsome! <3 Another reason why to buy Silent Hills! XD

Alan Wake was inspired by Stephen King, The Shining, Alfred Hitchcock, Twilight Zone, few references to Norse myth and also the setting is from the TV show twin Peaks (It's from the 90's great show it was what started the X-files). Remedy is a good dev that's why I can't wait for their next game Quantum Break.

I'm going to try Wasteland 2 and I'm waiting for early access for Invisible Inc on steam.

@dragonborn_ct Dumb question, but did you catch the latest Assassin's Creed Unity gameplay?

I am really looking forward to abusing the stealth gameplay in this. I'm a huge fan of Splinter Cell, so it suits me well.

Anyone else pre-order destiny?

why would you pay more than the norm for a game?

@i_dont_like_comics: I didn't? I pre-ordered the regular version. Plus the beta was worth it.

@shot: doesnt pre-ordering cost money? like 5 $ or something?

@i_dont_like_comics That's putting down your down payment, so you can guarantee that they will have your copy on launch day.

For example you pre-order a game and it cost 60 dollars, and you have to give a payment of 5 dollars minimum. When launch day arrives you only have to pay 55 dollars, because you already paid your 5 dollars.

Is anyone here actually considering getting Metro Redux? I think I might get it, since I have both and get a discount on steam. XD

Finally got the "Aggressive Expander Achievement"

Same here. I also like how you can now fight back unlike Outlast.

How would you guys feel if after Arkham Knight the studio possibly did a good Superman game and made a Justice League one?

Can't wait for H1Z1 to come to PSN in October!

@shot: oh ok. i thought you paid 60$ + 5$ to reserve the game. we don't have this system in my country.

I don't know. I like the idea.

@immortal777:

Sorry for late reply, dude!

I actually didn't know about the Norse mythology. O__O

Have started reading Stephen King myself. Mainly with Dark Towers? I heard there's a talking raccoon in the series! Figured I'd give it a try. xD

And I didn't know it was Remedy doing Quantum Break. Was that the Xbox exclusive? Man, it looks awesome!

*wishes she had more money*

Wasteland 2's concept art looks very cool. ^___^ Even is turn based from what I've read?

I'm hoping FF XV will appear at TGS. Really want a release date but I know it's been so long. v___v

@theacidskull:

My apologies on late reply, good sir!

You should play Outlast if you can! I'm not really into scary games either but you only have a video recorder and no weapons? You gotta hide from your enemies in an old mental ward.

Is very fun to play and has a few good jumpscares.

But man, P.T. was terrifying. 0.o

And the lore does look intriguing with SH. Do not know much about the series but the second story is rather sad.

I wonder if LoS can get a reboot? Gabriel is very handsome! =D

OMG! Witcher III! O____O Yes, please! Really think it'll be 2015's GOTY.

Have you played the previous two?

@theacidskull:

Ah man! Am sorry to hear. My computer cannot run such games either. Only can play last gen on the lowest settings. xD Is Outlast available on a console you have?

Hahahaha. I completely lost it when you go to the front door and turn around to see that little girl who breaks your neck. XD Scared me everytime! You could even see a woman peering over the second floor as well. O__O Meant to say, I did beat the demo! But making the fetus laugh a second time as a pain. >__< I had to use the PS4's headset and play a Bombcast...Think a certain pitch triggers the baby's laugh? 0.o If it weren't for the internet though, there would be no way I could have beaten it. xD

^ Not really spoilers for you, but wanted to mark just in case for those who haven't seen nor played.

I've only played the first and loved the sidequests!

Can't play second cause my computer's very slow...Will see if I can get the sequel during Christmas but short on money atm.

WOW! Another demo? Was this from Gamescom?

Just love the lyre playing. ^__^

Aw. The Johnny boy is adorable. <3 I wanna hug him hehehe!

And all that blood gushing out. O__O

Thank you for sharing! Did not see this.

What did you think? =O

Quantum Break is an Xbox exclusive being developed by Remedy. It does look like it'll be an amazing game especially with Remedy developing it they've never made a bad game in the 20 years they've been around.

Yea, Wasteland 2 looks pretty fun and I really want to play an old school esque western rpg game like Fallout 1/2.

I hope they show Kingdom Hearts news at TGS, FF XV, Scalebound info and MGS 5 release date.

I'm so glad I decided to get the Witcher 3 on PC because from the sound of it the consoles can't handle the game, well not to the standard I or the dev was hoping for anyway.

Looking good.

Congratulations, mate :o Now lets see you nation taking the Russians out

Jaysus Christ, guys... I hate to partake in internet drama in general, but this is just the end of the line.

Fez Creator Sells Company After Hackers Expose His Personal Info - IGN

@dragonborn_ct: That sucks.

Another game I'm exited for.

@immortal777:

Wow! I didn't know they were around that long. O____O

I still need to get around Fallout. XD I think I tried to play New Vegas on Steam but it wouldn't run? Whenever I clicked, New Game, it would crash? 0.o Maybe I'll just skip that one then.

Ah, I hope we see more MGS V. <3 Have a feeling it'll be out sometime in March. Least it's what I've been hoping.

And find it hilarious with the difference cardboard uses in Phantom Pain! XD Hehehe. Soldiers ogling at ladies. :D

I actually didn't hear about this. 0.o Not surprised though. Love Fez but I'm indifferent about Phil Fish from what I've told you.

And as for Zoe Quinn mentioned in the article, I never even heard of her until GAF's creator, Evilore made a thread about it.

Just so stupid with the drama.

@samimista: Yeah its an shame that despite being in production for 5 years, FEZ's quality is being completely eclipsed by the creator's douchebaggery. I don't think he deserved to have his personal info exposed into the public. At very worse, he was just an asshole, not an criminal...

I did heard of Zoe Quinn before due to people bashing her for being a female dev. But this new scandal gah... I'd prefer not to delve into that either.

Agreed. And while he was a bit of a butthead, Fez was a very creative game imo. Though it was stupid with how over dramatic he got on Twitter.

Am glad Cliffy B is back in the game. <3 He's even friends with Kojima-san. :D

There's a better picture of them hanging out, but I can't post it on here. XD

Yea, Remedy has been around for a long time, they aren't as well known as other dev teams but they're better than a lot of the more well known ones.

Have you seen the multiplayer for MGS 5? I posted the vid a few posts up, it looks pretty fun with you invading others bases and have to really make your mother base your own. If MGS releases in march I hope it's at the end of march since Witcher 3 comes out at the end of feb and I think Batman might come out in march.

I have quite the list of games to play from the PC to the Xbox One to the PS4, I don't know how I'm going to get through them all smh but I'll definitely enjoy trying.

@immortal777:

I did! =) ...At least I think I did! XD I only saw a video with two Big Bosses? Are you able to play as other MGS characters in multiplayer tho? I'd love to play as Eli! XD

Hahaha. 2015 is gonna be a big year. O__O Not gonna lie, more psyched for Witcher than Batman. xD Never thought I'd say that either.

Am impressed with how MGS V looks. Love 4 but felt it lacked gameplay so hoping MGS V has more of that.

Heheh. xD Any games from this year? I do wish more games came out but very pleased with Child of Light and Second Son. =)

What's your PSN by the way? I don't think I have you? Am Desmeress on there. :D

@samimista: I don't know if you can play as other MGS characters or not but it would be pretty cool if you could. Not very much came out earlier in the year.

1. Metro Redux
2. Destiny
3. Shadow of Mordor
4. Crimes and Punishment: Sherlock Holmes
5. The Evil Within

I plan on getting Scribblenauts Unmasked but it's only for either PC or WII, and since I don't plan on getting a Wii. Do I just download it and play or do I have to have a program?
