Anyone here remember Hunter: The Reckoning? I think it was on the original Xbox.

 

One of my favorite games.

[Craigsters]

I bought a xbox 360 game controller from amazon.ca at the beginning of the month and it's already broken, the left thumbstick  or axis  busted on it's lower  bottom part and the cars and people walk in  circles now on there own, luckily  I keep my old PC game controllers and fell back to my hori xbox one controller from a year or so ago which had  the X,A,B letters worn off the buttons and wasn't as comfortable to hold as a xbox 360 controller

 

Owe the xbox 360 controller I bought from amazon.ca it's xbox 360 controller had no stickers underneath it and might of been a repaired rejected controller from a private amazon seller

 

this was the seller that sold me the xbox 360 controller a month ago 

tyjtyrjty Xbox 360 Wired Controller white colour a friend of mine found where he bought  his stock from and he paid $8 dollars a  joystick from a China distributor, the friend knows how to track items to the original distributor

I've stopped buying things used, personally. Just always had bad experiences with it. I especially hate buying Consoles used. I remember when I was an Xbox guy, I had several 360's break down on me, and I always could only afford to buy used rather than new.

 

Ever since the new consoles, I've only bought the odd game used.

 

I guess it's a bit of paranoia, but man, so many people just don't take good care of things before they sell them.

At amazon.ca the buyer listed it as new, I'm speculating  and thinking he bought old stock or defective stock from the original manufacturer and fixed them up and resold them on amazon

Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but if you're on Windows 10. The Xbox Game Pass is 90% off right now. That's $1.00 USD for a months subscription. You can play any of the Game Pass titles on PC that are marked as PLAY ANYWHERE.

 

Heres a list of Play Anywhere titles.

$1 isn't bad to give Gears of War 4 a try. I haven't played that series since my console days.

God damn it, I really wish I had an Xbox and not a PS4 sometimes. Backwards compatibility and the Game Pass. £1 for the first month? That's a really good deal.

 

Sony is seriously slacking when it comes to stuff like this.

While playing GTA V for the first time on a toaster, i've did a wacky scene by pushing NPCs. After i bought myself a PC, i had to remaster that scene.

You guys think I can get Anthem for free if I email EA customer service and ask them to give me a free copy because the game sucked ass? If I try multiple times, maybe I'll get a representative that feels me.

[Craigsters]

I would of pre-ordered cyberpunk 2077, but I'm hyped and almost sure I may buy Rage 2 deluxe edition at the end of the month, 99% sure, it's one of the months I get a extra tax credit from the government,  rewards for being over taxed in Canada

[Guest Billy Russo]

I used to not care, but I've got super obsessed with Platinum Trophies lately. I used to just play a game and move on, but there is just something so satisfying about doing everything a game has to offer. It's giving me a reason to dive in to my backlog again. As I started some games, and stopped part way through.

 

The buzz kind of started with the Nathan Drake Collection. It was infuriating doing it on Brutal and getting my ass kicked, but when I 100% every game, that felt so damn good.

Gamepass for PC:
 

I finally got around to do all the updates needed.  Tons...hours worth.  Days worth when you factor in I would just walk away during updates.  Keep in mind I started the same day as the e3 announcement.

 

Long story short;  If you like to have a gaming rig and an xbox console it's kinda of hard not to appreciate what you get for your money.

Microsoft have come a long way. Sony needs to really step up when it comes to giving gamers more options. They have Playstation Now which sucks compared to Game Pass, it could be fleshed out more. There should be more PS4 games, and it sucks you need to stream most of them.

This video is so painful to watch.
 

 

 

Especially the last animation.

[Guest Billy Russo]

Amnesia: The Dark Descent is terrifying.

 

I got chased by an invisible monster in the water, and I never want to see water again. Holy f*cking sh*t that was scary.

[Craigsters]

 

I organized my steam  wishlist the other night, no more dragging and dropping just type the desired number position you wish to move game too on the left hand side, Rage 2 well most likely be my next purchase so it's at the top of my wishlist

Staying out of the Cyberpunk topic is f*cking tragic but the reward will be great. (so I keep telling myself)

[Sanches]

Last time i played TF2 was in late 2017. There's a lots of YT videos that explain what is wrong with this game. Today i felt nostalgic and tried to boot it up again but i've been met with a crashes and same problems i've encountered a year ago. On top of that, devs literally added more ugly features in the game.
Guess im waiting 1 year more till i'll play it again.

Y'all wanna play some

Infamous: Second Son and Infamous: First Light are still beautiful looking games. Hard to believe they came out so long ago now for the PS4. The lighting is fantastic.

Sounds interesting enough, but too bad I just uninstalled Wildlands the other day after beating Fallen Ghosts lol.

Does anyone else watch Call of Duty: ESports? Been watching all weekend and it's such a blast.

 

I know CoD isn't exactly the most liked game on the internet, but as someone who really enjoys playing it, I started watching the Competitive earlier this year. At first I wasn't really in to it, then I started learning who all the players were and the different teams, and now I consider myself a fan. I don't miss an event.

 

The production is pretty good most of the time.

Pretty sure I predicted this game would be a flop.

[Margot Robbed Me]

Don't play Kingdom Come Deliverance. It's one of the stupidest games I've ever played.

 

The guy behind the idea to use a first person camera instead of a third person camera for this kind of game is probably the winner of the dumbest ass in the world award. Combine that with the fact that you need an in game consumable item to save your game, and said item puts you in a drunken state is incredibly stupid. So when you use the item to save your game, your character now wobbles randomly with the screen going blurry.

 

I'm having a hard time thinking of a dumber system, and I've been playing video games for nearly 30 years. Could not even make it past the first 15 minutes.

[Guest Billy Russo]

Man I'm so fed up with video games right now, I hate this feeling.

 

Single player games are boring me, GTA Online gets old. I just don't know man. I've literally only been playing Call of Duty, I'm not sure why. It's like I just can't be bothered. I might just give myself a breather for a bit, take some days away from gaming.

I think they wanted to make it more realistic but it makes no sense. Save games make no sense if you want realism. Does real life stop when you go to sleep? Do you need to save your progress? No. It stays the same until the next time you're conscious.

 

But I guess manually saving can have some benefits.

The camera was way more of an issue in my case. I see what they were trying to do, but the camera was horrible. I got knocked down on my horse, and my view was literally nothing but the camera clipping below the ground. I couldn't see sh*t. Turning my head did nothing. I didn't even know what position I was in. I couldn't tell if I was still upright, upsidedown, on my side, knocked over, crouched, etc. I didn't know if I actually clipped below ground, or if I was even still on my horse. There was nothing on the UI that gave me information. If they wanted to go for realism, I'm pretty sure I'd know what position I was in almost immediately, in real life. 

 

Absolutely retarded and it would have all been solved by making the game 3rd person.

 

First person worked great for games like Alien Isolation, which also had the minimal UI.

 

It's an absolute joke in Kingdom Dumb.
