I only played a couple games that released this year. and even though i never played it, titanfall is pretty overhyped. I think destiny is a bit too

How can you say a game that isn't even released yet is overhyped? Based all off an alpha build that has less then 5% of the game in it as a demo????

Have you even played Destiny? Its hoestly teh best FPS game I have played in a very very very long time. And I am pro sony and this game isn't even exclusive, but lets give credit where credit is due.

I played the alpha on PS4. Good game but i think people along with the massive budget its getting will mean it will get over-hyped. Just because something was over-hyped doesn't mean it was bad. I enjoyed most of it except the multiplayer but i'm not really a multiplayer guy anyway. The enemies could be a bit smarter though. I'm guess i think it will be over-hyped because i'm a little tired of fps games although thats because of battlefield and cod mainly. Destiny seemed different enough but we'll see. 



Xbox One, PS4 and Switch (+ Many Retro Consoles)

Mario Kart 8

Not enough tracks, worst battle mode of franchise and extremely unbalanced item distribution. Its a good game, but not near of the masterpiece that some people say.

Titanfall or Destiny



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

Definitely Titanfall

Probably the most over hyped game of the past 5 years.

Quite obvious even without your statement.

And so? Funny that is all you seem to pick out of my post.

On a side note, at least I will readily admit it. Have any ida how silly it is for those that act like they are platform neutral yet on a forum in a site like VGC?? That has to be the biggest lie on the planet. Kinda like going to a site for game cheats and posting in their forums that you don't use cheats.

Anyways, I don't know about you... but I know for certain that everyone here is a fan of one platform or the other, difference is that some are just crazy blind fans while some are at least objective.

Who's hiding? Most people on this website that I talk to say which console they prefer, but they don't have to bash or downplay the competition just to make themselves feel better about the console they prefer/bought. I prefer Xbox everyone can tell that simply looking at my name.  Just saying.

I do not see how that bolded part is relevant to what i have said so far. Unless you are somehow trying to insinuate that that is what I am doing. Which will be untrue cause I have not "bashed or downplayed" anything. You may say you are "just saying" but I do't see how it applies to me. Its relevance is even more questionable when you seem to be agreeing with the exact same point I was trying to make. Cause I too said that everyone here is a fan of one platform or the other but some are blind (the types that will bash/downplay/excessive loyalty...etc) and some are at least objective. I doubt I have ever singled out a game or platform and unjustifiably bashed it just for the hell of it.

Or is this some sort of reverse bashing stunt where you feel the need to pick on an admitted sony fan for no apparent reason or defend a fellow xbox fan even if the grounds of your defence/assault is exactly what I was saying or trying to point out to begin with? Confusing....

Nope, I wasn't saying that's what you were doing. I was talking in a general sense. Like I said I wasn't targeting you, I was "just saying" is all.

Titanfall & Infamous: Second Son

Both have been hyped. Both are "only" mediocre games with good graphics,

So far it's got to be Titanfall - Destiny is being hyped even more than that game however, so it could still take it. I'm expecting Destiny to mostly live up to the hype, however.

Titanfall, but it did its job at saving Microsofts launch so it helped.
