Gaming Discussion Thread
So I wanted to create a public thread just for gaming, since gaming discussions on the megathread will probably get missed by a lot of people.
So currently I'm playing Assassin's Creed Unity, Assassin's Creed Brotherhood and Halo 2 campaign in Halo MCC. I've been interested in getting the Dragon Age games, TWD Season 2 and GTA San Andreas or Vice City.
Also, I tried out NBA 2K15 today and gave up trying to do the face scan. Honestly I'll try it again but there's so much going on in the game that it's hard for me to understand how to play.
Something that pisses my off about gaming these days: People without mics. This pisses me off on AC Unity. Seriously, if you're gonna play a game that relies on teamwork, get a goddamn mic. I've lost track of how many times we've gone to assassinate the same guy and it's resulted in half the bloody city coming down on us.
My classic game of the day: Saints Row 2 for Xbox 360. This was before I could play GTA, so this became one of my favourite games on the Xbox 360.
Discussion: For any Halo fans out there, how do you feel about Halo MCC and Halo 5? I like MCC apart from the multiplayer. Why on earth the developers mixed maps in the same playlists is beyond me. I'm interested in Halo 5 and hoping that Cortana will somehow return (as unlikely as it is).
Anything on your mind that concerns gaming? Post below!

It's both funny and annoying when someone changes their voice to make it sound like they're a squeaker :x
I feel like gaming is both getting better and getting worse, there are so many games that are pretty popular despite being similar to past games and some new unique games are barely noticed.
Anyone else dislike that some games are getting ReMastered versions in like a year of the original release?
I'm hyped for Dying Light!
Any MGS fans? Hello? ANYONE?!
In Old Man Voice Damn these new gamers, all they care about it graphics and stuff. WHY BACK IN MY DAY, being able to see a refection of yourself in a mirror was awesome.
I'm excited as fuck for MGSV. But...

Any Batman Arkham fans here?
Cause this is a series that made me into a Batman fan.
I'm SO PUMPED for Arkham Knight.
I'm saving up for an Xbox One right now and I really hope to get it soon. With the way I've been earning money for my savings, I'll be able to get one by the time the next Xbox is made :P
Anyway, any fans of Tomb Raider here? Can't wait for the sequel coming Winter 2015.
I'm a Tomb Raider fan...A PS4 Tomb Raider fan....
They'll probably bring it to PS4... eventually
...Ugh...Damn exclusives.
It's being published by Microsoft Studios themselves, At the most it will come to PC but a PS4 release is unlikely.
I agree with you here. I'm still salty over Street Fighter V.
Why I am a Batman Arkham fan. Hive five brotha.
I hate when companies do that.
Yep, it sucks but that's the industry for ya :P
Oh God I am so getting those games as soon as I can.
And this is why I went with Xbox One over PS4.
But seriously, do they really think we're that dumb where we can be conned into thinking we're not getting ripped off when we are?
Yes, they think we're stupid.
I don't regret my Ps4 choice.
My best friend and i have preordered GTA 5 on PC, we were upset it was delayed, we plan on playing some Multiplayer, gunning down fools, roleplaying that urban life style.

I'm support the rap lifestyle.
I get hyped by listening to Little Wayne.
Then i start busting out rhymes myself.
I'm really looking forward for Uncharted 4. Naughty Dog has never let me down, so I'm hyped.
Until Dawn is also something I want to get. I really like these games which let players do decisions. + I like horror so it's a buy
Why PS4 exactly?
I like it, no big reason, I just liked the controller better and the sleekness of it.
I've spent so much time with the Xbox controller that using the Playstation controller feels weird. Bloody hell, those perfectly aligned sticks annoy me. You know when you use a controller for so long and then using the other one feels unnatural?
My biggest reason for getting an Xbox rather than a PS was exclusives. For me it Tomb Raider and Halo vs Last of Us. No competition for me really.
I fucking love Tomb Raider! The reboot from 2013 is awesome. I'll most likely buy an Xbox One too because of the next game, and also Quantum Break.
Oh yes, Uncharted 4. Been pumped about it since it was announced. I played all 3 Uncharted games on PS3. I must say the best one is Uncharted 2. It reminded me a lot of a Hollywood movie.
And Until Dawn looks awesome. Some people are already kinda comparing it to Heavy Rain because of the quick time events, and controls. But they are two different games.
I'm pretty hyped for Life Is Strange and Resident Evil Revelations 2. Its good to see more episodic games coming out. They will be real competition for Telltale.
Yeah, I used to play 360 so the PS3 controller felt weird.
But Uncharted!
Looked it up. I'll probably just get a PS3 and try some of the older games. Doesn't look like my thing though.
More brown-haired 30-something white male protagonists. Yippee.
With attitude
It's kind of like a male playstation Tomb Raider. :P
This was the dumbest chart I've ever seen.
What I love is how people just think "Oh, a white male, very creative"...Because you know, not like they're not any other type of ethnicity like Altair is middle eastern, Heavy is Russian, Whatever his name from GTA is European, Mario is Italian, Shepard Is who you make him or her.
This was sarcasm. It's just that regardless of nationality, they're all white. This is what I loved about Saints Row and any other games that have custom characters. You an play who you like. Just pointing it out.
Also noteworthy is that it wasn't until AC Revelations that Altair suddenly had a Middle Eastern accent. There's just a lot of common visual similarities between these characters.
And now I will wait for somebody to call me a racist.
I forget the reason Altair had a American accent in 1...I think it was...Hm..Better actor...I don't remember and I don't feel like Googling it.
what I love about custom characters is that you can make them you, you can have a better attachment to someone who looks like you than...A troll or something.
The characters aren't even all white and white is such a generic thing, what really qualifies as white as there are different shades of white and people who come from all over. I just find it stupid when someone demands a character be a certain way or it's racist or sexist, it's like they have no respect for a good character. It's like saying Joel from TLOU should be black or Asian or a woman because we have enough middle aged white men.
Just pointing it out.
I wonder when Kingdom Hearts 3 will finally get a release date...
Well Square Enix are pretty busy at the moment, so, I'd say not for some time yet.
Uncharted 2 was the best of them. I hope Uncharted 4 will be even better
And yeah, Until Dawn does seem awesome. I heard it has more endings than any other game out there. (It's actually no surprise because it has 8 characters to play). I mean, Heavy Rain had a lot of endings but this game has even more than that? Geeze.
