everyone seems to love horizon new dawn right now but i'm interested to see if it adheres to the typical AAA hype-to-antihype cycle

where at launch it's the best game ever, in 6 month's it's 'pretty good', in a year it 'has issues', and in 2 years it's 'only get it on sale'

In 2 years it will be $19 so whats the problem v:cool:v

Need to get a new battery for my WiiU controller or something, get like 2 1/2 hours out of a full charge now.

Based on my experience with the WiiU this seems to be normal.

I've never played a Souls game but I've seen a lot of videos and GIFs of Souls games and there's never a face to be seen. Only helmets.

Lol just lol if you wear armor in Dark Souls.

I will probably play Wildlands because my friends will want to. These're the friends that aren't busy playing Nioh/Nier/HZD/any of the other GOTY contenders that're already out, so they have plenty of time to bug me to play Wildlands with them. :smith:

I should probably get new friends

Play multiplayer games with your friends, it's a guaranteed good time.

Oh yeah, for sure. We had a blast with The Division (until end game at launch, anyway). I'm just bummed because Wildlands seems shallow compared to what it could be.

Yooka-Laylee looks really cool in the retro n64 collect stuff platformer sense of the game but all of the videos I've seen seem to be like 90% open space.

Maybe i'm just misremembering Banjo Kazooie.

Can anyone recommend any real good Nier (1) LPs? I never finished it and I'm not sure I got very far (I found Emil I think?) and I'm not going to find my 360 to play it again but want to go into Nier 2 prepared.

I remember being impressed by the scale of Fallout 3 when you step out of the Vault.

Why doesn't Amazon Prime give you the 20% off new games if you want a digital download code, wouldn't it save them money to not have to ship it to me? This makes no sense!

We got an Amazon gift card and now I have to pick between saving $12 on Andromeda or playing it at midnight. :mad:

I picked up Nier, Nioh and Yakuza 0 in the Target Buy 2 get 1 Sale and it's terrible because I had to wait for shipping and now I own games on discs and digital codes seem like they'd be cheaper to the retailer :smith:.

Bioshock pipe dream hacking was cool except there was way too much poo poo to hack for such an involved minigame.

rear end Creed 1 got a ton of hype but I think a lot of that in hindsight is because it was one of the earliest "go anywhere do whatever" games. Free running was still a relatively new concept in that time, as were Ubisoft open world checkbox-a-thons.

AC1 wasn't very good, but it had a lot of good systems. AC2 was much better in comparison.

Jesus this poo poo looks so bad.

ME2 had some awkward canned body language but it wasn't anywhere near ME:A.

Last Of Us sticks out to me as a great game that actually isn't that fun to play in any way

TLoU was great but it's also soul crushing so I agree with this.

I played the hell out of ME1-3 and I can't even tell which character is the player character in these ME:A videos because even the player character looks as low-effort as a random Citadel human.

e: I mean the PC in 1-3 stand out, regardless of what you make them look like.
