Fascinating look at Microsoft's doomed 2013 Xbox One reveal and how it essentially destroyed the brand for the foreseeable. It retrospect, it's truly astonishing how they managed to screw it up so badly.

There's been a small update today. I'm massively addicted to Tarkov at the moment but I'll be back on this soon. The single player is definitely in the style of a COD campaign, i feel I'm being rushed through it, rather than going at a pace of my own choosing. The story is kind of similar to BF3. Not great but not awful.

Retro means terrible cable management ๐คช I'd say my favourite retro console is the SNES, although the Commodore 64 runs it close with games like Way of the Exploding Fist, Impossible Mission, Spy v Spy, Bruce Lee and so many other classics. Nice collection man ๐ -

This is the game Call of Duty should have been in the past 3 years. As a Battlefield game, it's lost too much of its core DNA. It's still a good shooter that both COD and BF can enjoy but it really has blurred the lines and so many of these shooters have lost their identity for money and mass appeal. Once the honeymoon phase fizzles out the lack of content begins to burn here then I think the game will become more strained and people will be less forgiving. We also must not forget that the monetisation framework hasn't kicked in as of yet but that could put a further dampener on things. Some people are already peeved at how similar to COD certain aspects are particularly with unlocks and cosmetics. EA and DICE have succeeded in what they intended to do though and I feel COD players will be more happy with this game than Battlefield veterans.

I get that but regardless he's not wrong we pay more money for less things, things that made the series great. I also think these days we've been given so many crap products we are happy with things being mediocre. It's a shame that as a franchise, much like CoD it's best years and games are behind it.

I won't lie that video is a hard watch, it's just some guy ranting about a game he does not like and complaining that people are enjoying it... It was never going to be quite old school battlefield in part due to the people that have recently been employed to try and reboot the series and in part due to gamers wants being very different today. I think the biggest criticism currently for me is the maps, if you compare to old school Battlefield the maps are actually somewhat lacking. Operation firestorm (though I am not such a fan) is much more reminiscent of the series, plenty of infantry combat spaces but a larger map with scope for vehicles to really be utilised. They feel very COD esque generally but I understand why because of the people making the game and trying to lure in new fans. Server browser was taken out during the last game wasn't it? Portal will help to mitigate that I suppose and the complaint around skill based matchmaking, it is there but games are not prioritised on that. Heck if it was I think Macca, Lee and I would have been bumped right up to the best players last night as we finished 1, 2 & 3 almost every match. My only other gripe and I had a play with it last night trying to unlock the spawn beacon but the assault class is kind of pointless and the shotgun is stupidly overpowered but then there are always balancing issues when a game like this is first launched so we will see how it is in a few weeks. I may give the single player a go at some point, I am after a meaty rpg to play at the moment but nothing is really jumping out at me currently.

The game is ok, it's nowhere near peak bf imo and when you get someone to actually list what's missing etc you can kind of see why there's reasonable criticism.
-
Finally reached level 30 and I still got it๐ May have a look at the campaign tomorrow.
-
I bought the digital copy because game share effectively halves the price. Not played it yet, but looking forward to getting a regular squad.
-
I've seen Shipment is already up in Portal lol @Luseth I've only been playing the campaign so far but I'll try multiplayer once I'm done with that.

Ooh I never came across Soccer Rivals, or anyone with an Amstrad tbf, but I'll look this up now ๐
