I haven't seen it yet, but it looks like... a Terminator movie, which is exactly what you should expect when going to see it lol. How is saying that it's a fun film a Bad Opinion?
I saw both Genysis and Ant Man, and while I do feel that Genysis wasn't a particularly great movie (it was flawed in many ways), it was infinitely better than Salvation, which was bland, boring, and all-around terrible. The twist with John Conner becoming a Terminator was unique, as well, and I think that was its best strength.
Ant Man was fantastic, though. It was hilarious and creative; Rudd was a great choice for Scott, and the encounter with the Avengers was nice too. I liked that there was a lot more continuity than some of the other Marvel films, too. Ant Man actually felt like it was taking place in the same world as the other movies, something I didn't feel in the previous ones. The villain could have been better though.

By Poodlestrike Go To PostTerminator Genysis?I'd agree if you said Salvation.
Yeah, kinda.
Genysis was cheesy and campy but it was really entertaining.
By Wahrer Go To Postthatsachocobo.mpregShit's literally called a Moa. They just threw on an extra h. Got the head ridge and everything.

How is it a twist? It was in every trailer. Not to mention the story is just like every Terminator sequel: 1) completely invalidate previous film(s), 2) rehash dialogue for nostalgia value, 3) convolute the timeline even more because the machines always take the dumbest and most indirect way to kill whoever and you have to somehow justify the sequel's existence.

I didn't know it was in there, though.
By Tha Robbertster Go To PostSo I'm encountering this glitch in the MCC where games just randomly ends. Anyone else seeing this? And far more laggy games these last few days as well.Ive got this glitch recently a lot too again. And yes lag and connection got worse for me too over the last couple of days. Its especially worse in H3.
Something needs to happen.
By Captain Friendo Go To PostReally just craving some in game screens of Raid on Apex 7 at this point.The Megabloks reveal was cool. The Waypoint tease was informative. If the next time that they talk about this map doesn't contain a dev walkthrough or in-game screenshots, I'll be rull sad.

The IGN stuff for halo 4 was just painful to watch.
By Rokklaggio Go To PostThere's a rumor right now that ranking won't work properly on EU servers. I hope that isn't true..........

Also yes Jem I believe No Man's Sky will be one of the greatest games of our generation provided they pull off what they've said they talked about. There's so much potential for what it could be. Only thing that I could want is the ability to build things and a more dedicated form of multiplayer in that bastard (the latter of which has already been said to be being worked on). Hopefully they finish everything they initially set out to do and then feature creep that shit every so often.
Wes the only reason for a PS4 you should need is FF7 which has not been confirmed for Xbox mind. Kingdom Hearts on an Xbox controller is blasphemy. No Man's Sky also has yet to be confirmed for Xbax. Shenmue 3 yo. If you aren't interested in the plethora of Indie games on PS4 I can't help you.
Halo lore talk getting' crazy. I like this place.

It'll be a bummer if NMS doesn't come to the Xbox One, but Elite Dangerous is really damn good also, and they are going to be adding planetary visitation and exploration within the next year's time, or so their plans are anyway. NMS and Elite are totally different in tone and style, but it's awesome to see such massive, intricate games coming to consoles.
Well- they said it'll be coming to PS4 first- and since the bulk of their newer FF games are cross platform, I'm just assuming that 7 will follow suit. Could be wrong of course!
Halo Lore is always gettin' crazy!... and I'm foreseeing it only getting crazier once we get Stinkles' new novella and Last Light in September.

Yeah. Fuck it, the internet is always right. :P
I'm trying to get homework done so I can eek out a few games of Halo, but holy shit Charter has called me FOUR times within the last hour to see if I want to "Upgrade My Services".... yet I'm not a customer of theirs anymore.
Ok... so the best I can find so far is that this will be out Fall 2015. No word on pricing or an exact date just yet. But just look at this dang thing... gorgeous.
By ElzarTheBam Go To PostNo action movie will ever top T2
Lyk dis if u agree
Drunken Master 2.
That was easy.
Sorry if I'm ranting, but I entertained this last call. The Salesperson had me go to their little speed test website and guaranteed up and down that charter was the fastest. So I do the test, here are the results. Like clockwork, he recites the line at the bottom of the page VERBATIM.

Yeah. Fuck it, the internet is always right. :P
It's like 15 years ago all the kids thought the Star Wars prequels were great while the rest of us were in agony. But you were an infant or whatever then so you don't know what I'm talking about.

NMS and Elite are totally different in tone and style, but it's awesome to see such massive, intricate games coming to consoles.Honestly I despise console exclusivity so I agree that it'd suck if NMS and FF7 (your assumption that it'll come to Xbox isn't unfounded) didn't come to all platforms eventually. Elite Dangerous is really cool. I played the demo for it and that was loads of fun. I really should pick it up.

I can't wait to play Halo 5. Hopefully any terminals will actually be in the game and not the stupid app. Fuck that noise.

Poor bastard never stood a chance haha

Charter was my ISP until June, when they jacked the price per month up by 20 dollars. Another ISP offered a 150/25 package for 80/mo so I decided to jump in. Over 3x the speed for an additional 20 bucks, with some decent upload if I ever catch the streaming fever, or wanna upload some stuff.
Hey, who's up for some Saturday Night Haloooooooo later? Like, in an hour or two? Was thinking about putting together a BTB crew for the evening.
And now I have Elite Dangerous.
How's the multiplayer in this game? The gameplay is fuckin rad at least.

That said I'm really drunk so that's probably a bad idea...
By jem0208 Go To PostIf you had said right now I'd probably be up for it.Shit, we can get started right now.

What's your GT again?
By Invert Go To PostI'd be down for an hour or so, if you have any room.Aight, aight. GT's same as user, just join when you can!
By Poodlestrike Go To PostShit, we can get started right now.Not gunna lie, I'm already in bed. But I'm fully considering getting up to play some Halo.

By -Ryn Go To PostOhhhhhhhhhhhhh??
By -Ryn Go To PostOhhhhhhhhhhhhhPlay teh Halos
By -Ryn Go To PostAnd now I have Elite Dangerous.The multiplayer portion is monikered as Wings. You have to be in the same system and at the same star or spaceport as someone you want to Wing with. Once you both (up to 4 people can Wing together) are at the same place you can use the comms to set up a Wing. If you pick a meeting spot and the other person isn't there then you both warped into different instances so just leave and come back. That's the gist of joining. There's a lot more to it as far as how to go to supercruise together and such, and also ,bounties and rewards are shared between you and your wing.
How's the multiplayer in this game? The gameplay is fuckin rad at least.
Alright, next challenge is finding my headset.
Invite me to the game/party B O Y S
Edit: I'm only going to remain drunk for so long. When the time of soberness hits I'm pretty sure I'm out.

Are there a lot of AI enemies in the game and/or an arena of sorts for duking it out? Or is it all story and side quest missions with the occasional random epic battle?

How to Identify a good Terminator Movie:
Step One: determine if it was directed by James Cameron.
If it was then it's a good Terminator movie. If it wasn't then it's a severely compromised cash-grab concocted by suits who don't understand the franchise or movies in general.

@Ryn
It's whatever you want it to be. You can choose to seek out Conflict Zones, and go after pirates and other slog, and pick up bounties from the various factions. Or, you can be a total nerd and go mine asteroids for profit, or run various types of cargo from one spaceport to another and work the economy to your benefit. Or, you can be a total Space Dick and attack everyone you see and became a nefarios legend and have people constantly trying to hunt you down. Or, you can pick a direction and fly off into space and be an explorer and "lay claim" to uncharted worlds and stars, etc.
It also lets you do this in the privacy of a private lobby where you'll only run into AI ships, or in a public lobby where you'll randomly come across other human players who are either just as nice or as big a dick as you lol.
It's kinda crazy. And it's a bit overwhelming.
I took a break because they said they aren't sure what will carry over to the Official Release, as far as xp and loot and such, so I didn't want to get too invested right now just in case none or only some of it carries over. FYI.
And don't want to forget to mention how GORGEOUS this game is at all times (gallery is from a reddit user):
