You can play the sub-HD 20-30 fps version of Destiny on your 360.

Sorry guys, there's no Wii U version coming out this year. I guess it just wasn't selling enough for some dumb reason.

What did they think was going to happen when they sold a gimped version that was rarely patched and didn't offer any of the map packs?

Pretty sure about half the guns in Halo 4 shoot lasers.

There's at least one gun in each Halo game that shoots lasers. Plasma guns count for this, too.

COD hasn't had good audio since MW2, so I'm glad they're really looking into that part of the game. Hopefully I reliably sound-whore again.

A beta didn't help BF4. :negative:

Betas are like demos at this point. They don't really help anything in the full game at all, especially since the betas tend to have a very small amount of content from the full game.

Weird how the only posts I can find about it dropping into single-digits are from the XB1 version.

That was based on a Giant Bomb review, and Digital Foundry proved that was not the case at all.

Ghosts on the PS4 ran higher then 60 fps at launch, but a patch came out that fixed that. It still has framerate drops, though.

Looks pretty nice at 60 FPS. One thing I noticed in that video is the Scorestreak meter now shows the cost for the next streak, instead of a vague bar like BLOPS 2 had.

Videos!

I've been watching multiplayer videos of this on youtube since last night and I've noticed a few things that might interest people.

-UAV's aren't tiny little planes anymore but big fuckoff shark looking things. Around 2:10 into this video you can see one come in from the top left of the screen.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHjucvisNDA

-Paladin killstreak is gonna be nasty. Can't remember when it starts in this one.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgwV3A3rdVI

-The explosive drone is both hilarious and adorable. I don't think I'll ever not use it. Skip to 6:01 and watch the kill cam.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-jYC_bwkzg

Looks like UAVs are going to really easy to shoot down now. The Paladin reminds me of the Chopper Gunner. It looks like the bullets really spread out, though.

I guess I'll be running Flak Jacket a lot if that drone becomes popular. I haven't found anyone videos of people shooting it. It keeps catching them off guard.

Good thing there's double jumps and dashing to make you a harder to hit target.

I didn't see many videos of quickscopers killing people while they were jumping. They were either at ground level, slightly higher than them, or landing. I have yet to see someone quickscope someone while double-jumping.

Of all the problems with Ghosts, I think the most blatant is just that it's just so boring. I came back after taking a break, and there just wasn't any build I wanted to make, any lovely gun I wanted to practice with, any map I wanted to play, any killstreak I wanted to earn. MW3 was an unbalanced shitshow that barely advanced the series, but at least you could occasionally have fun running around with double Deagles or a thermal L86 on drop zone.

And yeah, the progression system sucks. I thought I'd like the idea of buy what you want when you want, but it just did not work right. At launch, you spent three games scraping together for a muzzle brake, and now they dump 60 points in your lap every game. Totally unsatisfying either way. I mean, you like to feel like you're above the Skinner Box tactics, but I did all 10 prestiges and a good chunk of the challenges in Blops 2, and I didn't manage make it to a single prestige in Ghosts.

Blops 2 was my favorite, so I'm pretty happy with AW looks to be shaping up.

I agree with you on the progression system. At first I thought buying what you want, when you wanted it was a cool idea, but it makes leveling pointless. I have nothing to look forward to, and no reason to experiment with other weapons. I quickly figured out what the best guns and perks were, and only used them for the one Prestige I managed to complete.

The rest was just a boring mess of bad gameplay decisions.

Actually, it takes place in between the two Black Ops console games. :eng101:

Okay, I stand corrected. I Googled it and it is is a rushed abomination of several COD games mashed together. It even has some stuff from COD4 and MW3.

There's more 360 goons on PS4 then Xbone. There's also the PS3 goons on the PS4, so that means more people for COD then Xbone has. Plus the Xbone's OS (especially the Party chat) is loving terrible. At this point my Xbone is just going to be my Halo box when the Master Chief Collection comes out.

I'm surprised that you want a Bone more then the PS4 since you play so much Dark Souls and Bloodborne is a PS4 exclusive.
