Wow I somehow completely missed the part where Dragon Age is joining EA Access so soon. That's awesome!


AC IV on the other hand is quite unimpressive on X1 (and I guess PS4 too). If I didn't hold the X1 controller in my hands, I would think I play my 360 copy. Astounding how they couldn't even make it 60 FPS.

I haven't played AC IV on the X1 but on the 360, I thought it looked good. AC Unity looked nice although there were a couple of glitches. 

I AC IV on my Xbox One and my buddy watching me play got hook and got it for his Xbox 360.  They look similar, but the Xbox One has much better weather - storms, rain  on the ship, boards, sidewalks, etc.  And with DirectX 11 on the Xbox One you get to zoom into everything and things just look  better and don't get blocky.

The game play is about the same, but the Xbox One does look better.  The kind that you notice more when you go back than when you go forward.



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

Here is everybody talking about Windows 10, and I'm still running XP (the equivalent of Windows 5), because MS didn't deem us worthy of a free upgrade like the 7 and 8 users, lol.

Sorry dude, but you might want to get a new computer.  I  was amazed how much faster everything was when I went from XP to Windows 7 - but there was also some hardware upgrades too.  You can get a nice x64, 8 gigs RAM, a terrabyte or more drive and a good DirectX 12 graphics card and have an awesome time.

Or even a Surface Pro 3 or when the Surface Pro 4 finally drops.  (Also remember the Surface Pro 3 might also have a price drop when the 4 comes out.)  They are full powerful PC and Tablets.

hmm, I'm having trouble signing in to Xbox live. Anyone else having problems?

Haven't been on my Xbox for a little while, but I don't think it's just you.

From TA:

  • The Xbox Live Core service is unavailable for as of 29/07/2015 20:13:41 GMT.

    This will affect the following services: Signing into Xbox Live.

Phew, I'm glad I wasn't the only one. I was in the middle of playing Lego Batman 3 when it signed me out, and I couldn't sign in again, so I restarted the game, and everytime I tried to load my save game, it would give me a black screen. That got me really worried and I thought the game glitched and I'd have to start  the game right from the beginning, but luckily I was able to sign after a while and everything was fine! :D

Lotta games I have to buy first. So for the rest of this month not that many.
Starting with Forza 5, then downloading the free GwG games and other F2P stuff (Killer Instinct, Neverwinter, World of Tanks etc.).
I wanted to get EA Access for a month to try Titanfall, Battlefield 4 and UFC (mostly). It's going to be August though until the games mentioned above have been finished downloading. :D

Games I wanna buy:
Sunset Overdrive
Halo MCC
Forza Horizon 2
Dragon Age Inquisition
Far Cry 4
Watch Dogs
AC Unity
Middle-Earth Shadow of Mordor

Just to name a few. I'm starting with whatever I can find for the lowest price. Most of those seem to be Ubisoft games. I've seen Watch Dogs, Far Cry 4 and AC Unity each for 20€ and below already.

Eargh. Skip Watch Dogs.

nevur!

I've already seen that for 10€. Can't be that bad.

Only a good deal if they are paying you 10€ to take it off their hands.

I must say Neverwinter is pretty good so far. Has a nice combat system. Unlike 90% of other MMORPGs.

I just installed Windows 10 preview on a partition. Seems pretty good, kind of slow compared to XP, but it is a preview and it's likely not designed to run on 10 year old hardware lol. I like Cortana's inclusion and the Xbox app. Spartan is kind of meh though, at least in preview, very slow for me.

Shika, buy a new laptop!! :P 

You can probably get a $400-500 one that has good enough specs for everyday use.
