Wow the initial gun you get with support is a dream! Just with the 2x optional scope thing and RDS I found it to be lethal - got 12 for 3 on my first game with it which is better than my usual kd ratio
Good thread! Not necessarily perfect games, but games which I've loved and kept thinking about when not playing them for me would be:
Sonic 2
Micro Machines
Goldeneye
C&C: Red Alert
X-Com: Enemy Within
Halo 3
COD: MW2
Fallout 3
Mass Effect trilogy
Cool mate, hope to be on a bit later tonight - around 10pm. I'm assuming you're on 360 version too?
Do you or anyone else on here have a dog tag too? Good to get a clan name going down!
Cool cheers. I used to LOVE mines on BC2 but never found them as effective on BF3. Nothing as satisfying as seeing 'vehicle destroyed' and 'multi kill' pop up when you've completely forgotten you've laid a mine!
I've been using the RPG a lot too and although there's no lock on it seems decent...
Yes definitely. I used to have X31s but sold them as didn't think they worked on my new TV. The day after selling them I realised I could get an adaptor for like £3. D'oh!
I got some new Turtlebeaches and despite them being a lot cheaper I find the sound quality pretty much the same and...
Just got a new pair of headphones and finding I'm playing better again - not sure if psychological or not but it's working. Also just started using the engineer class and finding the carbines a great all rounder class to use.
Do people use the slam mines or the usual anti-vehicle ones you get...
I had a bug last night when using the attack boat. In the same round it said I unlocked burst fire and fire extinguisher but I just went onto Battlelog and I haven't even unlocked the 30mm rounds yet (the unlock before burst fire). Bit annoying I thought I'd smashed it!! Those attack boats are...
Nice. That gun looks decent I've not used any of the carbines yet - will probably use them instead of the PWR weapons when I move onto engineer class.
As for the chopper video - I can't believe no one shot him down! Usually in my games it's constant lock ons or other chopper battles, plus no...
It got a great first impression from the team at Gamecentral and a great interview with the team working on it too...sounds excellent.

The vehicles seem a bit unbalanced in BF4. I've only played Bad Company 2, BF3 and now BF4 but I found Bad Company 2 best in terms of damage they could inflict and sustain and their rates of fire. Some of the guns on the choppers seem underpowered (the minigun feels like a pea shooter).
Darren...
I can't see how anyone could possibly say the Xbox controllers are bad quality. I dropped a 360 controller out a second floor window (by accident of course!) onto concrete below. Apart from the battery pack falling out and a minor scratch it was fine and still working 2 years later. In fact none...
Good stats! I just got the RDS and it is MUCH better. The standard iron sights are awful as the the bottom part of the reticule obscures your shot and particularly bad in darker levels. Can't wait to upgrade it a bit more, already seems miles better than the AK12.
I'm playing this on the 360 and despite me thinking it would feel underwhelming compared to next gen, I am really enjoying it. The only thing I would say is that despite having the DLC maps the rotation of maps seems a bit poor - I seen to be playing the same 4 or 5 every time unless I go and...
I got this on 360 for Xmas...is it worth getting the Premium content too do you think? I anticipate I'll be playing this to death until I get a One or PS4 next year.
It's such a great game, there is so much more they could do with it though and I would keep buying it. Everyone complains about generic FPS yearly updates yet still buy them, whilst X-Com is quietly loved by many 'core' gamers. I hope it doesn't sound elitist when I say that, but Firaxis have...
How are you getting on with this, Darren? I've found the new Mecs have massively changed how I play - as I can push forward a lot quicker than in the original. I have also really enjoyed the new special missions - the base defence mission was great and quite challenging, took a bit of thought...
Dice have ceased development of all other games and BF4 expansions until online MP bugs and glitches are fixed - reported today on IGN and various other sources.
Yeah the first time I met one of those I started to fight it then realised I was out my depth so had to run away! Stuff like that was great, as you try stuff and see what happens. Great when you're not led by hand from mission to mission and give the player some credit for making their own...
Fallout 3 was an amazing experience for me. Alongside Mass Effect and playing online Halo for the first time, it really was groundbreaking and not something I had done before. I remember stepping out into the wasteland and it was such a tense experience. You see something in the distance - do...
I can't either so have decided to wait until teething problems are sorted, cheaper prices and more games available. I would have thought 6 months ago it was 100% I would get a One but I'm currently undecided - I want to play Halo though so that's the main thing keeping me interested in One, but...
It should make no difference CJ - as the One won't be doing any of the processing directly as far as I'm aware. Will be an interesting test though anyway!
Anyone getting one of these?
And does anyone know the confirmed release date - hoping it will be sometime in the next couple of weeks but nothing concrete so far.
Looks like it will be a pretty tasty device.
I haven't seen any exclusive next gen reviews yet - only current (well I guess old gen now!) and PC...I'll have a search. Although I'll be buying it anyway I imagine!
I wish bloody Xmas would hurry up so I can play this. Santa is a f$$%%g c%%7!
In all seriousness though, it's annoying how only Forza and NFS have got good reviews from all the launch games - 2 racing games to choose from and not a lot else (although hoping BF4 will get good reviews for next...
I am a bit nervous about where the Kinect sensor will go. I don't want an eye sore sitting on my TV unit all the time...how are people installing them?
Ha touché! I was focusing more on the level of details, the shadows and metallic reflections in particular.
All the reviews are positive graphic wise though, although some have mentioned lack of dynamic times/weather a bit disappointing.
That could easily be to TV settings though before everyone starts conspiracy theories start. If you ever try changing the brightness, contrast and saturation levels on modern TVs you can totally alter the look of games, films and TV programmes. Shadows and detail especially change with the...
More electicity required too, seems pointless keeping the xbox on all the time, plus the controller, when you're not actually using it.
Disagree. I am buying a One as I want Halo and Titanfall exclusives...I am buying it specifically for the games.

As for the...
