Quick review of games

Ghosts - looks great, plays good once you adjust of out blackops mode. Managing a 2+ k/d while on the 360 i was getting wooped.

BF4 - Looks great but not as good graphically as ghosts (can tell its not true 1080p). Plays much better than bf3 i can actually kill people.

Killzone - Truely crap, I was lumbered with it from the bundle and actaully looked forward to playing it but when you have bf4, ghosts and all the free games to play I avoid if possible.
 
I think some of the reasons people are finding Killzone SF punishing is because a lot of players have come straight from an era of COD, where you just basically shoot pop up targets as they appear. No real thinking involved.

In Shadow Fall, it actually requires you to do a bit of basic planning, maybe try and be a bit stealthy. However, I do normally end up triggering an alarm and then have to run away like a little girl and hide behind a tree :D (that's when I normally realise I have run into one of the snipers with invisible camo)

As for the loading 'cut scenes', it's not that surprising considering the textures are clearly a lot higher res than most other games, and the maps are very big on some of the levels, so there is a lot of assets to be loaded.
 
I am finding Killzone reasonably challenging, but not too much so - and I am not that great a FPS gamer :rolleyes:
Thing to remember is that the character being played is not a Tank, but much more of a stealthy type - Shadow Marshall - and hence piling in with all guns blazing is out of remit, really.
IIRC, the very first Killzone game way back when had the player switiching between different characters, and one of those was a Shadow Marshall?

I think BF4 looks better than Ghosts, and quite enjoying Killzone :) has it's moments - although some of the voice acting is dire!
 
Kind of annoyed that i could see the knack bundle with next day delivery available, yet i ordered this same bundle in November and not get a delivery estimate yet, mine changed to "Preparing for dispatch yesterday" So hopefully ill get an update soon :confused:

I've got a pre order with GAME that I placed at the end of August (at the same time as I placed one with ASDA for myself).

The order from ASDA came through on launch day yet I'm STILL waiting for the one from GAME with the only information being that they hope to process this by the 20th of December.
For someone who claims to in specialise in games definitely do not in customer service.
To sum up - I wont be 'pre-ordering' anything from game again.

The only reason I still use Game is for the reward points and trading in games, although more often than not, CEX pay far more for trading in games.

So yeh, just the reward points then.
 
Had to make a FB account just so I could get the video, kind of annoying. Anyway broke physics in NFS last night after I got stuck :D

 
Yeah i had that as well, i contacted them and they assured me i should get it before Christmas as well. Both the knack and kill zone bundles were being advertised today stating in stock from the 11th so hopefully we should get an estimate that day.

I got onto a chat session this morning with amazon as I still had no delivery date (killzone bundle ordered on 15th nov) and people ordering yesterday were getting them delivered in a few days time. anyway they magically managed to get mine dispatched for tomorrow (Which is handy as no one is here but hey ho (edit: DPD delivery so changed date via web site)).
