Re: Racing Sim Thread, Part II

Great impressions. I might have to give this one a look based on: 1. How Driveclub sparked my interest in bikes. 2. My affinity for games that just put you against the road and the clock (i.e. rally games). There's something nice about not having to share a beautiful track with others (whether it be...

Re: Monster Hunter World

Thanks Bakes! You might be right that I need to change up my weapons. I've taken a mild break from this game while I catch up on some older xbox games that I've missed being ps4 only for a while. So far, I have to say that Quantum Break is fantastic! So far it brilliantly executes a fun story and th...

Re: Monster Hunter World

I do have to say that there was no way I thought I would ever play a Monster Hunter game. However, after hearing about all the praise and improved accessibility I decided to give it a try. At 15 hours in, I actually do get the hype. It's a masterfully crafted experience that is so simple in its conc...

Just picked this game up and really blown away by "The Journey" mode. It's very well done - the presentation, story etc...top notch all the way. I would actually pay for a game that only had a series of these branching stories that involve playing matches, practicing and mucking around in a main hub...

Re: Nintendo Switch

Splatoon 2 is probably my favorite game so far on the Switch, I also never played the first one. It is nice to have a 'shooter' where the goal isn't to kill the other players and the games fly by and it's so easy to play a few rounds when you only have a little bit of time. Thanks. Considering I ge...

Mario Tennis and Kirby are likely purchases this first half of 2018. Until they release, I'm having a hard time figuring out what to grab next. I want a first party title (already played Odyssey and Breath of the Wild).... 1. Splatoon 2 - didn't play the first one, so it would feel fresh. 2. Mario K...

Re: Nintendo Switch

Supposedly the Nintendo Switch has sold 10 million units in 9 months. That's pretty impressive and hopefully EA will port over more games to the handheld. The fact that mature games like Doom have been ported over, and later the Outlast series - shows that the Switch is certainly getting games that...

I'm not too far into this one yet, but enjoying it so far. It's actually my first Assassin's Creed game since I dabbled briefly in number 2. I like the nice balance between intense encounters, traversing around, scouting with that eagle and all the other little things (diving for treasure, etc...). ...

I've had my LG B6 OLED since early in the year and haven't even thought about burn-in as a possibility. Maybe it's a careless approach, but haven't noticed a single issue and have just been enjoying the stunning picture quality - obviously 4K gaming on the Pro/X have been great, but 4K Netflix conte...

For all of you that didn't notice the blatant elevated black levels - you're lucky. I am sensitive to that stuff so I noticed it immediately. But I can confirm it has been fixed in the latest beta update. Oh - and it was 100% for real. AVS Forums was having a minor meltdown over it. https://www.for...

Thanks guys - Yeah, it's taking me a while to learn each track, so I think the braking line can take a bit of the learning curve out of the process. :D

I assume that if I'm to have any honor, I shouldn't be driving with the racing line assist, correct? I see that even on the "hard" difficulty, it shows the braking line, but I've been trying to drive without any line. What do you guys do? I sort of feel like using it would be like tracing a picture ...

After a night of watching Forza 7 update while fiddling around with other things on the Xbox One X, I got a chance to play it today. Really really nice looking game. GT might have better lighting and a bit more photo realism, but Forza overall is the far superior package. Love the way it controls as...

Just so you guys are aware - there is apparently an issue with ALL NON-GAME HDR content (streaming, 4k Bluray, etc...) on the One X. I noticed it right away and was concerned. Then I read all the other people complaining about it over on AVS Forums. They're referring to it as "elevated blacks". Non...

Re: Nintendo Switch

Is a carrying case or screen protector necessary? Seems like the Super Mario Odyssey bundle isn't that great a deal vs. buying the console and the physical game separately. It's $10 more for the bundle and the only thing you'd get is some red carrying case. I'd use it mostly in portable mode so a c...

Re: Xbox One X Impressions

If anyone hears anything about Wolfenstein 2 on the X, let me know! That's a title that could help sway me towards an X if it's an upgrade from the Pro. Also - does the X upscale regular blu rays nicely? My wife an I are building a huge Studio Ghibli blu ray collection, so it would be nice to play t...
