Maybe how games can be advertised, and maybe how this will affect return policies. The game was advertised with parts in it, that were removed prior to release of the game. Gamers have found out that several claims were ismply false, claims that were made on TV etc. These claims made the game appear unique, a landmark for the gamin industry. But without these claims being true, it is just Minecraft in space.

So far, nothing has captured my attention this console generation in the same manner as Fallout 4.

Fallout4 as well yes. But I don't think that has any online features as GTA has, so I switch between those games a lot.

Titanfall for me. I remember it had a ton of hype prior to launch including awesome trailers. Very little staying power and dead servers after launch.

I remember seeing advertisements for titanfall, but never checked it out.

Thought of another one: Fucking Destiny.

How's the online work? Different modes? Co op? Free for all?

I basically go on an invite only server so I don't have to worry about getting ran over by a tank. From there I join mission, mostly co op. There are many online missions, heists, races, last man standing, stuff like that.

Help me out geeks. What are some of your titles that promised stellar shit but left out the stellar part?

RE5 was a let down from 4 because 4 was so damn good, but 5 wasn't that bad. Now 6 however......Makes me want to torture small children. THat is maximum suckage, and I can't bring myself to finish it no matter how many times I try.

Okay... this is heresy. I'm now playing it... maybe I'm halfway through but I'm loving it.

The first one's mission's were just so damn repetitive to me.

Also, the AI in RE5 made me very frustrated at times.

It's an action/adventure with aspects of stealth and shooting and puzzle solving.

Very similar to Tomb Raider if you've ever played those but the story and dialogue between characters is unparalleled.

The Last of Us is phenomenal too. A third person zombie survival from the same company that made Uncharted. It's a great story as well.

I play on GTA also. I like the biker wars we have. Free aim ARs only. This is one of the people I made rage quit, good times.
No man sky was up on my list of games I wanted to get but that's not happening now. Hope the New SouthPark game is great.

Good stuff man, I am only like level 44 and don't have a posse to back me up. So I stick to co-op jobs mostly. The game is very expansive, you have a lot of options. When I see you comin' I will be sure to turn around lol.

I know right?! Wtf is up with that? Do people not have fucking friends anymore?

It's one thing to talk shit over a headset. It's another to DX crotch chop your buddy and let the slow motion replay victory set in, in person! :D
