    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Dead pixels are virtually non-existent on screens this size. It's just more poor quality control due to rushing this system out the door. There is also an issue with color calibration where some people are getting screens with yellow tinting, much like the 3DS screen lottery. If you are going...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    In six months, after your Switch has collected five months of dust, and Zelda is still the only game worth playing why don't you come back and tell us how awful our "shitty PC's" are? I mean do you even care about games, because a Switch owner talking shit about consoles with massive libraries...

    The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

    I wasn't trying to start a fight about it. Zelda is really fucking good, and so far it's probably my favorite one ever. I just don't hold Zelda in as high a regard as some, so it isn't, IMO, the best game I've played this week, much less ever. Obviously I'm talking about Horizon and obviously...

    Overwatch

    The range on her ultimate is gigantic. I can't see it going live as is.

    The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

    I agree, I just get annoyed with the Zelda freakouts. Yeah, the only reason I'm getting so much playtime in this week is because lucked into it. Took the week off a long time ago without even realizing these games were coming out during it. Bonus points for the other half being gone, too. I've...

    The patch is up on uTik for BotW EU version now so no need for a torrent.

    Meant to say in the last month, as in thirty days, not March. :)

    The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

    The game is the best Zelda in a long time, maybe ever. Having said that it's going to get the typical Zelda treatment and be called the greatest game ever made and other ridiculous nonsense, and it's not. I'd also advise anyone playing both this and Horizon to always play Zelda first in the day...

    Overwatch

    Been watching Moonmoon for the last hour or so and this new meta is just garbage. Everything revolves around Bastion vs Bastion and it completely makes the game unfun to watch and most people seem to hate playing it as well.

    The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

    Makes sense that it was prototyped as an 8bit game because in many ways it's the closest thing to the original Zelda in 3d form.

    Horizon: Zero Dawn

    Who gives a shit? I beat Uncharted 4 the second day it was out and my opinion of the game hasn't changed an inkling since that day. Either you enjoy the game while you are playing it or you don't. Unless your one of those guys who has to wait and let other people tell what is and isn't a good...

    Horizon: Zero Dawn

    I'm not sure it's a honeymoon issue. I've already played Horizon for longer than it took me to beat Uncharted 4, so outside of a horrible ending to this game I don't know what would make me change my mind. It's not like these are multiplayer games you play for months or years on end, what you...

    Horizon: Zero Dawn

    I'm gonna have to agree with Ut and say it's better than UC4 and TW3. I don't know if the story will be better when it's all said and done, but the moment to moment gameplay is definitely better. They really nailed it with this game and I hope to see more from this IP in the future.

    Horizon: Zero Dawn

    I don't know what the game looks like on the standard PS4, but 4k and HDR is just breathtaking. I never imagined they could get these graphics, with stable frames, out of this machine. Guerrilla Games is indeed filled with wizards.

    The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

    Your friend sounds like a chode. It's clearly not a mechanic designed to force creativity because even with constantly using boulders, bombs, fire, water to kill things the wep durability thing is annoying. I could only imagine how shitty it would be if I used weapons exclusively. It will...

    Horizon: Zero Dawn

    This is the best looking game I've ever played on a console, and is legit better looking than most PC games on the Pro. It's also crazy fun and hunting robo-dinos can be intense. I've played about 4-5 hours and have just been running around doing random stuff and have barely advanced the story...

    The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

    Downloaded the game update. I'm really enjoying the game for the most part and once you get away from the grassy areas the frame drops aren't nearly as bad. The game has a lot of really cool stuff going on and I've already had a half dozen "wow" moments. The durability thing is just fucking...

    The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

    Yeah, very early Wii U impressions. I've since hit the first couple of quests and opened some chests with better weapons. Weapons are still decaying way too fast IMO, metal swords still only last a few fights so far. Overall, though, I'm enjoying the experience. I've caught and cooked some fish...

    The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

    Ok, extremely early impressions based on about 30 minutes of play. Bad: 1) Aliasing everywhere, really bad, especially in the first area with so much grass. 2) On top of aliasing, the image is really soft, so you have the double whammy of a soft-blurry image that you'd get from post processing...

    Yep, downloading the update now. To be continued... Edit: Update installed, games running! Will give more impressions in a bit.

    The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

    Dunno if it works, but you can download it through uTik EUR region. Edit: Installed fine, loaded up and saw the title screen only to have the Wii U whitescreen pop up and say "you must perform a system update to play The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild".

    The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

    Well apparently it dips on both the U and Switch, it had to have been built with one of them in mind.

    The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

    What i want to know is how you let your flagship franchise that's completely built for ONLY your consoles have framerate issues? I get when people say Nintendo shouldn't compete on a hardware level with Sony and Microsoft, but when your hardware effects your own first party games then it isn't...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    So apparently the Switch version of Zelda dips into the low 20 fps range in tv mode. The dips aren't present in the handheld mode, but the game looks noticably worse. Talk about worst of both worlds and shitty underpowered hardware. I'm actually seriously worried about the Wii U version now.

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    I literally have only games I haven't finished installed, and I still have quite a few more that are waiting for space so that can play them. The system is three years old and the fucking install sizes are ridiculous, patches can't be saved in storage, and it's a huge hassle to want to play...

    Ghost Recon: Wildlands

    I hate what they've done to this franchise. It's not like what it used to be. As for this installment, from what I've played it seems pretty rough. Maybe it's one of those games you have to play with a full group, but nothing really stands out to me as better than other games of this type. From...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    I have no doubt Zelda will be amazing, but this is the same shit you hear with every new Zelda release. People losing their fucking minds. Horizon has absolutely nothing to worry about, in fact based on install base I'm willing to bet more people will be playing Horizon on March 3rd than Zelda...

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    I really hate the way the PS4 data management works. I have a 2tb drive but the last 100gigs might as well not exist because the stupid system won't even let me install a 10gig patch if I drop below that threshold. I just had to delete 20gigs of shit when I already had 100gigs free to download...

    For Honor

    A few things he says aren't accurate, but overall I can't argue with much in that review. If Ubisoft had ponied up for dedicated servers and left out the micro-transactions I would give it an easy 9. I can't remember the last game I was this addicted to. It's not newbie friendly, and you...

    For Honor

    That could always be the case, but Vermintide was never even close to as big as For Honor is. Based on the populations I'd be willing to bet FH has already sold more copies this month than Vermintide has in its lifetime. I mean people burn out at different rates, but I got 50 hours in myself...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    It took the PS4 two years to hit 30 million, and got there the fastest in console history. The Switch won't come close to that. I'll be shocked if it hits five million this year, much less thirty. For reference, the Wii only sold about 3 million in its release year, it expect the Switch to do...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Seems they didn't learn anything from the Wii U after all. I can't get more more than 10 feet from my system (in two different houses) without the gamepad losing sync. This whole thing feels like panic mode rush job after the U disaster. I can't blame people who are day one hyped, but buyer...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Nintendo can't even produce than many units right out of the gate, so you're already wrong. 30 mil lifetime, maybe, but outta the gate isn't coming close to happening. But keep those blinders on, bro, they suit you.

    For Honor

    Your friend is Apollyon? She's good, really sells the character. The voice acting for the main classes is really good overall. Jennifer Hale is the female Warden and I couldn't put my finger on the male Warden, but he's Illidan Stormrage in WoW! Most of them have lots of gaming voice experience...

    For Honor

    I love the salt in this game. I had a bad game, went 7-6 but we barely won. Dude says I'm trash player and got carried. Next game same teams I go 11-0 and we basically had them three capped the whole time. Same dude says it's my class and gear. Total baby rager. I had to turn my messages to...

    Twitch streamers: Fairlight_Ex: usually on a Conqueror or Shugoki. Oroboro: Mains a Lawbringer, but plays other stuff too. TrU3Ta1ent: plays everything, spent most of today on Raider. iSky: Warden, I actually found a lot of good streamers/players by watching his channel because he only does...

    For Honor

    Wardens are boring as fuck. Everyone plays them because of vortex spam, but even watching someone at high end, like iSkys, nearly puts me to sleep. I main a "faggot" rogue because I like the faster play style but as soon as I hit rep 4 I'm gonna switch to zerker or valk or maybe one of those...

    For Honor

    Honestly they kinda suck. The only saving grace is that you can buy everything with in game currency, but the prices are pretty high. Luckily there is no P2W and you don't need to buy anything to compete. I haven't bought anything and probably won't. The gameplay is legit, though, and makes...
