Ah now don't get me wrong Baz, it's a good game, it looks very good too. I'm just concerned it's going to lack a bit of longevity. I may be wrong on that, sure Hitman works extremely well, and that's just doing the same shit on the same map in different ways.

Don't take my word as anything other than a misinformed moron on the Internet. Remember, I support Embra and Hibs, I've got no idea what a good game looks like.
Haha fair point. Hope it doesn't lack longevity as now my course work is handed in I've got the time to smash it.

Although saying that there's every chance I'll have to do all my work again :lol:

Resident Evil looks pretty good and I can't make my mind up about that Horizon Dawn thing.

I also so a trailer for a zombie game a while back that looked the muts nuts but can't mind what it's called or when it'll be out.

I'm a weapons grade coward so can't say I've seen much of Rez Evil, however I've a mate who said the latest one is excellent.

Can't think of the zombie game you might have seen. There are millions of them these days.

The PS4 has just released a load of extremely well reviewed games. Lots of people raving about that Nioh game. It looks a lot like Dark souls though. If you like being punished by the difficulty of games, that might be a good one.

Horizon Dawn looks really good man, I'd get that if it wasn't an PS exclusive.

Don't know if you ever played any of the Mass Effect trilogy, but they are releasing another one of them at some point next month. Might be good, might be shite.

Also, if you don't mind The those types of games, and want a cracking long story, The Witcher 3 is one of the best games of this generation.

Worst case we get the new maps for BF1 in March.

Days Gone was the zombie one.

Horizon Dawn looks really good but a bit psychedelic for me maybe :lol:

Haha, fair point.

Here, if you like horror games, you might want to check out Alien: Isolation. It's probably going cheap by now. A mate of mine said it was the tensest game he's ever played.

I feel like tensest isn't or shouldn't be a word...

Had an alien game on the ps3. Loved playing as a marine, lights off, last mag of ammo, motion sensor gently picking up its ping.... *poo emoticon*


Tbh I wouldn't really say I'm in to horror games so much it just so happens there seems to be some decent looking ones out right now.

Ah fair enough, that looks alright actually.

Here because I lurk there but only post here, that bug you are getting after you are revived in BF1 that jams up your weapon, just cycle quickly to your secondary and back, it'll get rid of it. I do it every time I'm revived now. It's a pain in the hoop, the amount of times I've got up, run round a corner and gone to fire and fuck all had happened... it's worth getting used to it, Dice have a habit of fixing bugs like that one in about 2 to 3 years.

I know that works but forget when there's some cunt right in front of me. Just so happened that we were on the verge of winning/losing and it happened a few times in quick succession. Raging. Each time I forgot to switch weapons.

Ah yeah, sorry didn't read it properly. Aye, it's frustrating as fuck. I swear it knows when you are in a close game.

Speaking of bugs n that, have you spawned into a black screen with only icons and names appearing on it yet? That's happening a lot on the xbone right now.

It's excellent, but be warned it is a fairly massive, open world RPG. Not in your old job sense of RPG mind you. The politics in it is superbly written, and it is very well voice acted. Its one of those extremely rare games where the story almost outdoes the gameplay. It's also got one of the best mini games ever created as a way of generating income.

I just got Sniper Elite 4... like everyone else... I shot Hitler in the baw. Have a look at some of the gameplay of that game on YouTube... the slow mo sniper shots are ludicrously over the top violent.

Here Baz, looks like Ghost Recon is reviewing pretty well. It's at about 84 on metacritic right now.

Nioh is class. The difficulty has been overstated, although the bosses are tough. It nicks the mechanics of Souls/bloodborne but doesn't feel like a rip off somehow. The combat is much faster for a start. Recommended if you liked Souls or Ninja Gaiden.

Yeah, I am, as usual on the wrong console for that, played it round a mates place the other day, never been that big on the Dark Souls games for some reason, but really liked playing Nioh, it could genuinely be as simple as it's art style. Not sure.

I was a huge fan of Ninja Gaiden. I vaguely remember myself and a flat mate finding an area of that game where a bunch of bats constantly respawned if you dipped in and out of an area, and farming the shit out of it for about 4 hours, just to be competitive.

Been playing the new DLC for battlefeild 1. I think the Xbone gets it early through ea or some shit.

The infi maps are good, although one of them is a lot like locker from BF4, I'm not sold on the other two, they are really tank and plane heavy. Which seems to be the point, but if you are not in either you spend most of the time being shat on by both.

New guns are alright, the LMG may get a nerf, it's hideously, and hilariously op right now.

The new patch reduced the gas grenades you have to 1 and made friendly gas from suppressing you. Thank fuck.

They unfortuanly nerfed the AA again... Man, I fucking hate the planes.

How are you finding Wildlands Baz, still good? If you are a anything like me, you spend 15 minutes droning and sneaking about planning how to stealthy kill everyone in a base, by the second kill you've been rumbled and within 3 minutes you are on level 4 purple thing with a gunship backing one out in you... Stealth.

Yeah, still enjoying it. Had a go with a mate the other day but neither of us had headsets which made it a bit...... difficult. Lot of jumping in cars driving up to each other as a hint. Nearly completed the first area and yeah I'm a lot like that, really shite at any mission involving a convoy.

You and me both on the convoys. I just spend ages chasing those fuds around the map. Got myself into a good spot to snipe the driver through the side window whilst it was stuck in traffic... Promptly shot the passenger because I am an idiot and forgot what side of the road they drive on in Bolivia.
