Probably the classic Medal of Honor Heroes 2?

No, Goldeneye and COD4 probably, for about 5 minutes each time. I don't like playing against other humans in fps, they do weird crazy shit that would never work in reality but somehow win them a round. I remember a Nazi trooper endlessly circling in a small room somehow dodging my machine gun in the classic Medal of Honor Heroes 2.

Playing this nao, it's getting annoying being forced to junk ships endlessly just to upgrade my ship. I've played for like 30 hours and it says 23% done?

Well you don't really have to play against others in Destiny...you play alongside them. And most of the time its like playing a normal single player game. But then people will show up usually right around the time you're gonna need some help, which is cool.

Oh...Vader made a thread.

...and the game?

Pretty much what I expected. Lots of button mashing. Excellent soundtrack. Fan service all over the place. I'm playing on hard mode and I've already died during the second level. Very easy to get caught up in fighting and forget about your stats.

Oh I just realized something else kind of funny about Hyrule Warriors packaging. You know the Club Nintendo fliers with the pin number you register for your coins? This time it's not an individual flier. It's actually printed on the back of the cover art jacket. Have they done this before? Guess this is their solution for people who take the fliers without buying the game.

One last thing I'll say about Warriors, these boss battles are still very much Zelda boss battles, but there's a nice twist to them. I rushed into the Gohma battle thinking it would just be shoot at the eye when it's open...... well yes but it's not that simple. I lost to him before I figured it out. Then I died two more times before I realized there's a second condition that you have to fulfill during the fight. Anyway good damn time.

The CD soundtrack is pretty tempting, but probably not. There's too many other games on my plate right now. Well too many for me given my time constraints. I'll be content just playing the Wii U version.

Eh.

Not my thing. In fact any game which heavily relies on the internet you can count me out. Unless it's social I guess.

Bayonetta on Wii U - the Digital Foundry verdict

Taking the spread of games released by Platinum into account, it could be argued that the Wii U version of the original Bayonetta is the fastest-performing console game released by the studio to date, and in that sense it's a bit disappointing that the sequel fails to match the performance level set by its predecessor. While the massive increase in set-piece complexity in Bayonetta 2 is certainly exciting, it definitely comes at a cost. In that sense it almost feels like the original Bayonetta is the more finely tuned experience.


Alongside the likes of Need for Speed: Most Wanted, Bayonetta stands out as one of the best ports available on the Wii U. It's clear that a lot of time and effort was poured into this release in order to preserve and in places improve upon the original experience. While it's not dramatically superior to the original Xbox 360 version, we'd have to give it the nod as the definitive version of the game. The elimination of screen-tear, faster loading, and solid performance levels make a huge difference. Whether you've played the original release or not, this is a great way to experience Bayonetta. The fact that it comes packed in with most versions of Bayonetta 2 makes it one heck of a bonus.

Hell has just frozen over.

I was just thinking, I've been playing 2 games non stop that didn't even score an 8 on IGN and many other places. Destiny, and NHL 15. I'm having a blast with both of them.

Destiny in particular, I don't understand how this isn't an 8.5.....sure, the structure is a bit off, but everything around the gameplay is as good as it gets for a shooter. To me, its the ultimate 8.8 game.
