Get Gears 1 before the second one. It has a far better story.

And that's the only thing I need is *this*. I don't need this or this. Just this PS4... And this gaming PC. - The PS4 and the Gaming PC and that's all I need... And this Xbox 360. - The PS4, the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360, and that's all I need... And these PS3's. - The PS4, and these PS3's, and the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360...

OK guys, first off i wanted to thank you all for the help. Theres definetly some great suggestions in here!

EIther Bioshock or dead space are probably up next. Possibly RE5 depending if i can get used to the controls. While i said i prefer shooters on the Wiimote, ive heard WAY to much good stuff about Bioshock to pass it up. Fable 2 and Oblivion are totally on the way too.

My first impression was that "Damn this thing is loud!". At first i thought there was something wrong with it because it was a relativly loud system, but now i pretty much dont even notice it. The graphics are pretty sweet and i like all the bells and whistles it offers(Netflix, the marketplace, etc.). A part of me wishes it was a little easier to find everything I.E. the Wiis simpler interface, but like i said i appreciate all the other things it does so it still comes out ahead there.

As far as dead rising goes.... what began as the most irritating game ive ever played is turning into a pretty fun sandbox title. a part of me still wishes i waited to check out the Wii version to see if the aiming and structure of that one would make it more fun. who knows, maybe ill try both!!

Anyways, its been a worthwhile purchase already as its been a lot of fun and i noticed that two days in and im already trying to unlock achievements. that really is a genius system! i can tell already its going to extend the replay value of my games!! thanks again everyone for all the help!



F@ck Ubisoft and their commitment to Wii shovelware.

There are so many good games u definatly wont run out of titles to play



I mostly play RTS and Moba style games now adays as well as ALOT of benchmarking. I do play other games however such as the witcher 3 and Crysis 3, and recently Ashes of the Singularity. I love gaming on the cutting edge and refuse to accept any compromises. Proud member of the Glorious PC Gaming Master Race. Long Live SHIO!!!!
