Played it at lunch time...huge fan of the huge improvements with the exception of the keeper parrying it back into the path of an attacker to rattle the ball home into an unguarded net.

The keepers make great saves, the shooting accuracy has changed immensely, the power of shots has changed immensely and my favorite - in Fifa 14 you would tap the RS in a direction you want to run and you'd get a little burst of speed away from an opponent with the ball attached to your foot. Not in FIFA 15, you move it in an unrealistic direction and the ball runs away from you meaning there is a better chance on an interception.

Played as Liverpool in the 1st game and getting to about 75 minute mark and being 2-0 up, the chant of "You'll never walk alone" from the crowd would give you goosebumps - this coming from a Leeds United supporter.

I think it might be a good idea to expand the scope of this thread, by including All multiplayer gaming organisation - so users looking to organise online matches together etc can use this thread to do so. Plus, we can use it for gaming recommendations too. So yeah, anything & everything Xbox games related goes here

Any one played mgs ground zeros? Any good?

Ya I really enjoyed it. It gets a lot of criticism for being too short but the extra side missions are good fun to play through.
Well worth getting if you're into the MGS series anyway

I've 3 days before i go on holiday. That's 3 full days off work to sit in front of Destiny. I'm currently only level 3 but have no idea what I'm doing. I'm all alone during my missions. The only time I see others is either when I'm back in the tower dancing with them or when they briefly pop onto my radar during a mission.....only to quickly disappear soon afterwards. Any advice?

How do I play PvP? Do I need to be level 5? And how do I team up for missions? I can see it getting very hard very quickly and without anyone else to fight with, there's no way I'll beat later missions. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Went a bit mad today and bought Shadow of Mordor, Thief and Dead Rising 3. Is that crazy looking SuperEXAlpha DLC worth grabbing for DR3? I remember it looked great at E3.

super_furry · 09-10-2014 12:02pm

I see Ground Zeros is down to €15 on Deal of the Week - worth it at that price?

Kerplunk124 · 09-10-2014 12:25pm

Have not played that DR3 DLC but i have been meaning to.
MGS is definitely worth it at 15 quid, especially if you are a MGS fan. a bit short, but for 15 it's great.

That DLC is better than the other DLC but still a bit of rip off , the season pass DLC was basically 30-45 minutes of story padded out with 2 hours of collectibles in each one, so avoid it imo.

I'm back playing Killer Instinct since season 2 is now live. In addition, EA Access has been a steal as I am playing the One far more in the last few weeks than I have been since launch. NFS Rivals is a decent game that is getting a decent fraction of my gaming time.

I've been sidetracked by Fifa & Bf4's patch but I really want to play NFS

Shadow of Mordor is really brilliant, amazing game. Dead Rising 3 is great fun,
haven't checked out Super... Thief was a disappointment for me but a couple of mates loved it. Each to their own obviously. Hope that helps.

Currently running through Dark Souls again. It's just one of those games I keep coming back to, especially when I'm playing FPS's that just spoonfeed you and go "Oh you want to go that way? Nope, you have to go this way" type thing whereas Dark Souls is just like "Ohh you want to go here? Well off you go then!" and sends you on your way through a shed load of enemies that will punish your every mistake. It's not a hard game but it's challenging. You can't just zone out which is something I love about it. It requires every bit of your concentration and every victory makes you feel great, the way games are supposed to be

Dark Souls is an evil, evil game. It was crafted by Satan himself to punish all who dwell in its influence. It's like if the One Ring was a video game, this would be it - it consumes you. :pac: Nonetheless it was addictive as much as it was frustrating. I loved it. Never got to finish it...... but loved it. I also missed my chance to try out Dark Souls 2 since I got a PS4 last year and only recently picked up an Xbox One. I hope they bring it out on the latter consoles but I'm doubtful.

Back on the topic at hand.

I just traded in my PS4 copy of Destiny for the Xbox One version (even after getting the store credit it was still heavy on the wallet) so I'm currently flying through that. I slowly started to hate that game when I first played it on launch (I read too much into the feedback it got - bad idea), but since I now have a friend to play with, it has definitely improved the fun factor for me. Enjoying it a lot now

I would lose my **** if they remastered the souls games for the one.

I like the look of Sunset Overdrive. Been around long enough not to get overly excited about any game, but have to say it looks like fun. I'm more of a casual gamer though. Are you going off a particular review? Haven't seen any proper reviews yet, just gameplay previews.

Nothing proper. just this

Really doesn't seem that interesting at all, slow, bland, generic, wash/rinse/repeat. I thought it'd have a bit more 'punch' to it

Certainly a lot remains to be seen. But imagine the mayhem in multiplayer. All sorts of sh!t going on around you.

Making my way through The Evil Within at the moment. This is my core focus. Playing Titanfall and Destiny for my Multiplayer fixes and working my way through Hitman Absolution on the 360.

Yeah you just go into the app store on the Xbox One, download EA Access app. Launch it & sign up for 12 months for €25. Then download & install all them games. You can install BF4 from disc now you have it to save you downloading it, and sell it back to CeX for €12 cash or €17 credit. You also get to play full EA games for 6 hours, 5 days before they're released.

Better how? If you want a new story and a new game mechanic it wouldn't be called GTAV anymore then. It's the same game but better looking and a new radio station.

Not looking forward to the new COD as much as I have for other games in the past. They need to reel it in a bit IMO, COD4 etc with their "modern" vibe was great. I don't like all the futuristic stuff, there are plenty of other games for that.

Ya i agree tbh , not realy into the futuristic stuf but will stil buy it. Wish they would keep it like all the mw games. Black ops had the future stuf but was stil a great game. Not sure bout this one yet tho
