Addictive, easy to get into and yet challenging to master, epic moments...it's got it all. Easy to get into and challenging to master sums up the game perfectly. I've been playing off and on since the spring (I think I'm a Gen 6) but just recently the traversal and wall running just kind of clicked...

Maybe this was the case with the bigger PC version of BF3, but I haven't seen any team advance past B in 64-player Metro. In fact yesterday was the first time in about a half dozen plays where I saw the team that got B first lose it. Assault players with the 320 grenade launchers can really hold do...

I thought the 64 player thing would be overwhelming but it's awesome. Yup, I always thought 64 players would be an absolute cluster, but except for Operation Locker it's very well balanced. I was not expecting much of a difference with the PS4 version outside of the 64 player count in CQ, but I am ...

Don't judge??? That's awesome. To this day that game is my favorite 2-player vs sports game.

I love the idea that in 2013 there is a forum devoted to that game.

Used game sales for many gamers, myself included, allow for for more new game purchases.

Bingo. Exactly the reason Xbox One was not in my future until they changed their plans.

You don't think Microsoft is paying attention to the preorder numbers at GameStop, Amazon, Best Buy, New Egg, etc?

PS4 for me. Possibly Xbone later if they reduce/remove their DRM and ownership restrictions, or sell games at drastically reduced prices to match their 'Expiring Entertainment' model. Exactly my reasons for picking up a PS4 at launch and skipping the Xbox. Microsoft is going to have to have multipl...

The game that gets the most play at my house is X-Wing. If you came to my house and said every game must go but one it would be X-wing (and you would need a moving truck) My oldest son and I have had a blast playing x-wing. Do you have the Falcon and Slave I expansions? I live about 10 minutes away...

Really well made game. If you like fighting games, this one is top notch. Suprisingly balanced out of the gate.

So after a few years break from the series, I Redboxed this over the holiday week and put a ton of hours into it. Gotta say I like it, and decided to buy it. It got me the exact same way. I Redboxed it over a long weekend figuring I would play it a bit then quickly become sick of it. Nope....bought...

I'm an assault rifle kind of guy who camps and moves from point to point slowly and with purpose. I carry a bouncing betty & shock charge in all of my loadouts. I place the betty behind me and always have the shock charge out in front. Once in my spot with the perimeter secure, I pick off all the s...

I know it's not in many people's rotation anymore but I still think Battlefield 3 is awesome when it comes to multiplayer. The 'Close Quarters' expansion pack was an unfortunate mis-step as they tried to do a COD but the other expansions are awesome. Armored Kill is fantastic and what I love is tha...

I've been reading a few things about setting your search preferences to "Best" on the multiplayer match game screen greatly decreasing some of those "WTF?" type of encounters that COD is so well known for. This guy lays it out pretty well in a Youtube vid. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9sTbiVMnDdY&...

That is good, really good, trade-in value, but no way am I trading it in right now. This game will be a staple in my gaming collection. Yup. I'm really enjoying this game. Played my first game of Homerun the other night and had one of the most enjoyable multiplayer experiences I've had in a long ti...

Just played for about 2 hours. This game is f*cking GREAT. That is all. I just picked this one up this morning and, yeah, couldn't have said it better myself. Smashing gates and billboards is just as fun as ever, and the actual "arcade" racing is extremely well done. The early "Cold Burn" race wher...

Teal wrote:For my money, their internal testing was spot-on.

I agree. I haven't touched the single player, but I'm having a blast with the multiplayer (outside of the awful, awful interface......good grief just let me pick a gun and attachments without going through six different screens).

RobVarak wrote:Excellent ideas, guys. Totally forgot that Portal 2 had co-op.

Yeah, I didn't play it for the longest time figuring it was just a back of the box feature throw in. What makes it so much fun is that it truly requires teamwork, with some really diabolical chambers. Plus there is free DLC for it.

The co-op campaign in Portal 2 is a ton of fun. Played through it split screen with my son and had a blast.

The tables "out of the box" are so good, I have a hard time deciding which to play. Not being a pinball geek I don't know if this is possible for "Williams", but I'd love to see "the black night" & the "stars wars" pinball machines. Those were the 2 machines I loved back in the day. If you mean Bla...

Williams has a pinball arcade app that is kicking my &ss. The app free but tables u buy are not. Despite that, they look amazing on iPad retina & play great. I've spent hours on Gorgar, Funhouse, and Bride of Pin-Bot (and others). I've never been into pinball games, but this one has me. I can't eve...

I know some complain that the combat is button mashy, but after completing the game on the hardest difficulty, I found there is a unique flow and technique to it that I think is brilliant and extremely well done. On top of that its Batman done right with a solid story and the best atmosphere of any ...

This is exactly the reason I no longer play the Tiger series of games.

I'm not sure what to think of the multiplayer in this because every game I've played has been completely devoid of teamwork and obviously this game is built around it. I played a match of Saboteur where I was literally the only one attempting, on either side, to transport the bomb. My team won the m...

Just an FYI - Starhawk is pretty f'in amazing. That actually may be a bit of an understatement. I played some single player at my house which turns out to be basically an elaborate tutorial. Then I went over to a friends and played a few hours of multiplayer and holy ****!! Fun, fun stuff. But then...

Yes. I've always hated that. The game is so good I just put up with it but I don't understand the logic behind it.
