So I get paid the day before Valentines Day and have a nice quarterly bonus attached. I was going to wait and buy an Xbone when Titanfall comes out, but since the beta starts the next day, I am going to buy one then. But I really can't decide on my first game.
Calls of Duty - Does anyone have any experience on both the PS3 AND Xbone version? I own the game on PS3 and it's terrible. The latency blows, the picture is dark, the colors are shit. A better looking version with brighter picture quality and smoother online might be worth the money to me. Plus I could instantly buy the Extinction DLC instead of waiting a month on PS3 like a 2nd class citizen.
Battlefield 4 - I am pretty much ignoring this as I have heard nothing but terrible things about it. Another reason I am hesitant for this and CoD is why buy these when the GOTG is launching in like 6 weeks and is also a shooter? That's like buying some wagyu filets to make the greatest burgers ever, but then stopping at McDonalds on the way home for a McDouble.
Ass Creed IV - I have to admit I enjoy the AC games when I play them, but I cannot wrap my head around the story. I haven't really tried to understand it much, but it just seems so shitty and stupid. I can normally play a game with a bad story if it has good gameplay (and vice versa), but this is the rare occasion where the story is just sooo WTF that I can't play the game. But is it really good? It will probably pack a lot of content, which is a plus for me.
Ryse - Which is the opposite of Ryse. The game looks incredible, easily the best looking console game I have ever seen, but is there enough meat on the bone to warrant $60? I am wondering if the online co-op is any good and very replayable. This is my 2nd choice.
Dead Rising 3 - This is currently my #1 choice. But I kind of burned out on zombie games last year with State of Decay, Last of Us, and How to Survive. I don't care about people bitching about graphics or frame rate, is the gameplay good? State of Decay would be pretty boring imho if there wasn't the ever present risk of permadeath, and the constant managing of supplies and your characters well being. DR3 has none of those. I might go ahead and buy this and Ryse.
What about downloadable titles? Peggle 2 is obviously a must have. Is Crimson Dragon really that bad? I am not going to bother with Fighter or Lococycle. Max looks interesting. How about Powerstar Golf? I hear such jarring opinions about the game. Some think it's incredible, others no.
Thanks for reading.
