i still play gears 3 on 360 it owns. still a few thousand people playing every day. if they did some kind of hd rerelease they might as well make it multiplayer-only and use gears 3 as a base with maps from other games put into the engine and updated

bluegoon posted:Can any euro goons give some input on Titanfall (Xbox One)? Are there any people playing, is it p2p or on dedicated servers? Does it really matter if there's almost no one playing Titanfall? The game sizes are so small (isn't it still 6v6?) that unless there are fewer than like 500 people playing at any given time, it seems it shouldn't be that hard to find a game unless you really hate the popular game types. I'm still hoping to pick it up for $10 or as a GWG at some point. But also gently caress them for not being aware that the MP3 was invented, and putting 40 GB of uncompressed audio or whatever in their game. I guess they really hate people using SDDs or something.

Destiny isn't even in the same ballpark and I've probably played it 10 times more than titanfall. I've played loving bound by flame more and that game is truly awful. Titanfall is terrible sorry. Also destiny owns forever thanks.

Maybe they patched in a way around that since? RonMexicosPitbull posted:You must have a stroke everytime you think of the WiiU if you believe this.

Are you dropping over 1000 on video cards? you dummy Yes, and this is why consoles are a good idea, you don't suffer from idiotic PC GAMER logic like I do. The way I figure it is this (I know it is stupid). My PC at the moment just about beats one 980 but two 980s would beat mine pretty easily, also I want the per eye SLI for when my Rift DK2 arrives in a couple of days. So you see it makes perfect sense, I can also put my 'old' GPUs in my second PC so in that context it all seems like the only real logical road that my life can take at this point, the right thing to do. But more importantly it will beat my mates PC in benchmarks so when you throw that into the mix then it becomes no longer an optional upgrade but a compulsory one.

The biggest PC games tend to run on toasters (see Dota/LoL, Civ, anything Blizzard makes) so I don't think consoles have the effect many believe. Most people swearing about bi-annual upgrades recall the time before unified shaders became a thing. Back then, games just straight up wouldn't start due to your GPU missing features, but right now nearly everything uses DX9 still, and you can run that with a GT8800, if you wanted to.

The 970 is more efficient per dollar spent, and if you are a true PC gamer you want the most efficient machine possible for the cheapest price

Yeah, I am hyped as heck for Crackdown and Scalebound, but considering that they havent even shown real footage of either of them I wouldnt bet on either of them being out within the next 12 months.

Its focused on some sort of asymmetrical co-op/pvp thing. I dont like Fable either for the most part. I kinda liked the original. Fable 2 is my best friends favorite game of the last generation and I disliked it so much that I get mad just thinking about it. I will give the new one a shot, but just because it doesnt seem anything like the Fable 2.

Fable Legends, if I'm remembering the game correctly, sounds like the asymmetric multiplayer game every Nintendo diehard was foaming at the mouth for when the Wii U GamePad was showed off but still hasn't hit that console. Like, four dudes in an arena-type area with one human throwing baddies and traps at them. I think FL will occupy the same "casual multiplayer" landscape as PvZ: Garden Warfare, and that could be pretty good. At this point I don't think I'd bother with a mainline Fable game, after only ever enjoying the first one.

Destiny's competitive multiplayer is better than Titanfall's, and that's all Titanfall is. Both games are obviously stripped down versions of what they were planned to be but value proposition like woah
