By reilo Go To PostWas COD:IW designed the Monster Energy graphics design team? The entire UI, look and fool of it is fucking obnoxious.
And yet it's an improvement over the dumb GI Joe characters from Black Ops III.
By Rob Go To PostSmokey you have an Elite controller right?
Yessir. What's up?
How is the build quality? Thinking about getting one since all I do is play Gears now. PC version is basically dead so I'm debating on playing on Xbox
I don't want to drop $150+ on a controller and potentially have issues.

I've read about some issues, but i haven't personally had any. It still holds up just fine, as it should. Everything feels solid and weighty. Maybe try buying it from a place that offers additional warranty for piece of mind, but i haven't had any issues.
All this Switch talk got me to put down Destiny for a minute and go back to Mario Galaxy 2 & New Super Mario Bros DS sitting on my Wii U hard drive unfinished. It's just reiterated to me that A) these games are awesome, and B) 2D > 3D Mario for me, always. It just plays better. I think that's a big reason why I liked 3D World better than Galaxy, it incorporated so many elements from the 2D games.
I "finished" NSMB, going back and getting all the star coins now.

Best Buy will offer you a warranty on anything
By blackace Go To PostSo who is playing Civ? And how is it?I'm not playing it but I hear almost nothing but good things from friends that were less than enthused about the previous one.
Seeing some friends playing it, but not many are talking about it. The last one was good after expansions, but if your friends are high on it out of the box that seems awesome.
By blackace Go To PostSo who is playing Civ? And how is it?
Me, it's awesome but as I posted before here the UI needs some work. Only little things like some information being hidden three to four clicks away when it used to be on the same screen as others.
Music is fantastic though, really enjoying it.

I've been trying to ignore that, got EL in the Steam Xmas sale last year and played the heck out of it for a week. I really like it but I feel the combat weighs it down and I don't like the auto-resolve

I have a feeling that I won't need anymore TBS games for a while after I dig into Civ, too.. lol
By blackace Go To PostSo who is playing Civ? And how is it?
2 games deep.
First, diplomacy is still shocking as is the AI. However, each CIV has agendas, one that is open for you to see and another that is hidden. It gives each Civ some character and adds a bit of context to their actions. Like Philip fucking hates any religion other than his own, so if you follow the same religion as him, you'll be best mates. Otherwise expect him to denounce you at every opportunity.
The rest is great. Most feature-dense vanilla CIV game they've released.
Unstacking cities was a great idea. You have to balance districts, wonders and tile improvements with more thought. Do you build a farm for more house capacity of drop the Hagia Sofia on that tile and lose all it's output? No more builder micro is great.
I'll go into more depth when i have the time later, but gym calls
By Tea Go To PostI dunno how games still arent coming out with vote to kicks these days.What I find more annoying is the lack of a rejoin option for ranked. There were so many times I disconnected in CSGO and was able to rejoin where in most games my team is fucked.
It would allow developers to have harsher penalties for quitting since you'll know who accidentally disconnected and who took their bags and went home.
fuck can't pay off nations to fight other nations or lend them my army to do it.
CIV 3 still the diplomacy GOAT

Gonna be trash like the first one.
By CaCMasterFlex Go To PostThey wish.I didn't say it'd be good, just the style/vibe I get from it. Aped it hard.

By reilo Go To PostI didn't say it'd be good, just the style/vibe I get from it. Aped it hard.The color palette and tone are very GTA V.
By Facism Go To Postfuck can't pay off nations to fight other nations or lend them my army to do it.
I miss that. Enjoyed building up my trade routes to pay people off to start wars so I could win without having to fight a war of my own.
I don't find the diplomacy bad. The random denouncements are still there but I don't feel they're as bad as 5.
btw Smokey I guess Rainbow Six Siege is one of those PC games that shows up on XBL.
One of the people I play Gears 4 with is on it right now

By DY_nasty Go To PostWatch Dogs 2 just looks unfunIt suffers from Ubisoftitus, a very common condition.
I hate that I'm about to spend money on star wars battlefront again
Where is the Captain-Save-A gif when I need it?
Finally got a chance to try PSVR tonight.
Very impressive immersiveness, although I got a little motion sick playing the outer space shooter demo.
Might actually buy one if any good games come out down the road.

Damn, Rockstar is out here asking for money 12 months before their game is available. Just seen the RDR2 trailer on TV in prime time. Full court press out of them.
