360'rs - What are you playing???

Just bought myself yesterday the limited edition Gears of War 360, so at moment only playing GOW3
 
Yes, been waiting for years for it to come along and its finally almost here. Oblivion was one of my favorite games. Skyrim is probably the most excited i've been to get a game in years. Probably spend a year playing it.

Yes, there is just something magical about that sandbox style of game. Something thrilling about exploring the vast number of possible ways of vanquishing your enemies, earning money, completing quests, etc. Also, exploring a giant, beautiful, detailed, 3D virtual world that would take hours to traverse from one end to the other by simply walking.

The recent gameplay demos are, if nothing else, a demonstration of the incredibly realistic and gorgeous new graphic engine for Skyrim. We also got to peek at some really awesome enemies, and also non-hostile creatures!
 
Playing Gears of War 3.

Really disappointed to be honest :\

Me too, its ok nothing spectacularly different than the last 2, other than graphics being better. Of course there is going to be loads of glowing reports from the die hard fan boys
 
Really? All the gaming sites seemed have nothing but glowing praise. What are you disappointed with in particular?

IGN gave it a 9.0 :\ Which imo is overrated big time. Graphics are awesome, cut scenes are wicked but the game play, storyline and the easiness of the hardcore difficulty ruined it for me. I haven't tried out the multilayer yet so we'll see how that goes.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinions but yeah, i agree.
 
^ How would you compare gameplay to GoW 2?


Regarding IGN's score, I'm always pretty suspicious that these big gaming sites are bought off by the publishers, especially for well-funded games like Gears.

I can't remember *any* highly-anticipated game of the recent past that *wasn't* given really high scores across the board by the popular gaming sites.

Battlefield 3 BETA....

What's with the graphics? That's defiantly not 1080p HD..Is it because it's just the BETA? I fucking hope so.......Spent a couple of hours on it last night..I wish they would release some of the vehicles and more weapons.

It's pretty shit for just the BETA lol

the download was only 1.3 gigs so im sure they used low res textures to keep the dl small. i highly doubt theyd release a gmae that looks worse than ALL the video theyve shown for it.
and you have to score points to unlock weapons ;)
 
^ ahh yea good point man. Thanks :)

Been playing it for most of today and have unlocked a few goodies. The PP2000 is pretty sweet.
 
I have below 1.5,but that is because I play a lot of demolition and usually plant the bombs and think of the team rather then stats.. in TDM purely I have above that tho:p

I dont think KDR should be used as a measuring standard for how good a player is..

OT: I play a lot of call of duty even if I kinda hate the game itself:p(its the community)that keeps me playing..

Also dead island,Halo,L4D2 and quite a few more..
 
The new batman game kicks ass!! I'm Also playing the first assassins creed and bioshock!!!

I gave up on oblivion after about 80 hrs.. Idk it just got boring and felt like wow offline to me I might give it another shot as I'm rather depressed ATM and it's an amazing time killer!!!
 
Just got BF3 (Battlefield 3) last night.

Honestly I disliked the beta and wasnt going to get it... but the game is polished nicely. I enjoyed what I played so far. It was hilarious watching all of the crashing jets and choppers. Nobody seems to know how to fly them yet.
 
BF3

Probably half way through the single player campaign and level 10 in multilayer. I'm liking what I'm seeing so far.

Itching for MW3 though haha.
 
Dead Island

i recently got the x360key installed... its the fuckin bomb!!!

on my HDD at the moment i have Arkham City, Dues Ex Human Revolution, and FIFA 12!!! FUCK YEAH
 
I wish I had my box... needed the money 6 months back so you know how that goes... Black Ops was sweet. I am looking forward to getting a box again soon, but two new releases I'm excited about are MW3 (who isn't), and Skyrim (The next elder scrolls game like Oblivion). My buddy is getting them at least so I'll get to check them out even if I don't get a box by then... which is unlikely on a suspended license... since I need to drive to do my job.

Madden 12 was nice... they sped the speed of the plays and stuff back to normal unlike madden 11, it was all slow like "realistic" I think was the attempt. Played the new one though and it looks sick and plays awesome.
