Ultimate Videogame Topic 3: The Next Generation

[Felissan]

It's one of these series I'm still waiting to be able to play, 999 hasn't got an European release yet so I'll need the Steam version to release to get started.

[xRECKONERx]

yes

[PJ.]

Are NintendoDS region locked?

also emulation

[Parama]

you'd be missing out if you only played ZTD since imo the first two games are better (ZTD is still great though)

[Felissan]

I could import 999, but that just sounds too tedious.

also actually supporting the guys behind those apparently great games

[xRECKONERx]

the second game is better for sure. i think ZTD is better than the first one though

[Parama]

999 has the best story of the three tbh but it is inferior game play wise, I still like it most though

It also looks the best visually, imo

Jumpy's honey is real weird and real annoying.

[PJ.]

This whole freezer part sucks dick.

[PJ.]

Ok non-spoiler question: When june tells him she's dated 18 guys... and jumpy goes !!? and then she says time zero why isn't Jumpy's response "!!!??"?

Skyrim Special Edition hype, anyone?

Is here a complete list of companies somewhere?

whos got battlefield 1???

[Brandi]

This is the most impressive ARPG I've ever seen and I hate that I might have to wait years to ever get the chance to play it.

[tanstalas]

whos got battlefield 1???

I bought it for PC, seems very well optimized, Geforce experience recommended 4k resolution (though not everything at max) - the 64 player battles are fun.

Running two 970s on the PC playing it on, I'd play it on the PC that has the 1080 but no 4k monitor on that PC

Spoiler:

[hiplop]

dude that is sick. I'm on a 780 and I get most things on ultra/high. Had to sort of manually do it, though.

[Chevre]

Hey.

Amazon will begin taking orders for the Mini NES Classic at 5pm EST tomorrow!

Just letting you know. Apparently Gamestop and Best Buy will also be selling them in-store.

Have fun~

idk if people have interest in racing games, but in that case, this might be worth a look in the next day: https://www.humblebundle.com/store/dirt ... -free-game

Spoiler: The Gayest game you've ever seen... no really. NSFW

thinking about picking up a ps4 or xb1 on black friday

anyone have a recommendation between the two? leaning ps4 right now but the new xbox 1 s is looking tempting

[Maestro]

I selfishly vote PS4! You could get the Pro if you enjoy truly luxurious gaming purchases~~~

[Maestro]

But actually, do you have any cross-platform games in mind that you're weighing in the decision? Things like Destiny are cross-platform* but have much more exclusive content on PSN, etc. so things like that are worth taking into consideration if you're on the fence.

*"Cross-platform" in the sense that the game is released on both systems, not "cross-platform" in that people with different systems and the same game can play together. That's another factor entirely. Does special person/friend X have system Y? If you wanna play with them, probably best to get Y etc.

[xRECKONERx]

I don't really have anything in mind, no. I will say I see myself spending more time playing games on my PC still, so my console will mostly be for stuff like Madden (any sports games really) + single player games.

Definitely PS4. Games are generally made better on the PS4 just because its massively outselling the x1. Pretty solid exclusives, too?
