OT: Video Game Thread Part III

[DevilzFan]

I asked before, I'll ask one more time. Any PS3 Crews here for GTAO?

 

[B A T M A N]

great move by R*. The launch of GTAO has been a complete joke but at least they're trying to make up for it.

I can't ****ing wait for heists to come out....wow that's going to be so fun

Definitely, can't wait for Heists. I guess they didn't come at the start because right now they're just too single player oriented. They need to find a way to make them work for GTAO. But once they do, it's gonna be THE ****. There's still NO shortage of things to do on it though. I just can't wait for more customization options to come as well. Right now the clothing sucks and I find the character customization to be a bit of a joke.

This is brilliant. Especially Littlefinger.

 

[SeidoN]

game is hilarious. heading into year 3, I sign Marc Staal in free agency, the immediately flip him and Eddie Lack for Steven Stamkos

although, it makes sense for the Lightning. they have a .920+ goalie, a legit top D and still have Drouin who will be 90+

 

[MadDevil]

Got GTA a tad late because I'm a poor scrub.

I can understand why social lives disappear now. This blows GTA 4 right out of the water.

I'm almost into Skyrim territory with how many hours I've spent just ****ing around in this game.

 

[SeidoN]

so.... heading into year 4...

Stamkos (95) - Duchene (88) - Henrique (86)
Brunner (84) - Zajac (87) - Tedenby (85)
Ryder (83) - Loktionov (84) - Hagelin (84)
Strome (80) - Josefson (84) - Silferberg (82)

Larsson (88) - Edler (85)
Teubert (85) - Greene (83)
Fayne (81) - Merrill (81)

Schneider (86) - Bishop (82)

think its pretty good right?

Did you create Merrill?

 

[SeidoN]

Did you create Merrill?

yup. made him a 75OVR 4 Green Stars

 

[yakitate304]

yup. made him a 75OVR 4 Green Stars

Merrill is pretty much the definition of yellow star uncertainty.

Just started a pair of Live The Life modes - one as a 16 year old playing for Guelph, the other started at the draft and went #1 to Colorado. I'm doing both since the NHL one will help me unlock boosts for my EASHL player. Haven't played my first NHL preseason game yet.

 

[SeidoN]

went through the new roster update today. all I could see that changed was MacKinnon/Jones/Barkov etc's ratings being higher, and Brodeur replacing Kovy on the menu screen. oh and Brunner being on NJ

no new players in minors, no ratings changed, no moves from junior to minor (Boucher still a 64 on Sarnia)

 

[Holtz My Bahls]

I wouldn't expect to see Merrill & Wedgewood until January at the earliest. It's best to create them.

 

[DangleSnipeCelly]

usually takes 2 months for the minor league guys to get and sign their waivers

 

[SeidoN]

Watch_Dogs delayed till Spring. meh.

 

[B A T M A N]

Good. I'm not ready for Watch Dogs yet. Spring may be the time I invest in the PS4. For now I'm purchasing a lot of older titles that I've been missing out on, and going nuts. Why? Because the deals are amazing.

I think Watch Dogs will benefit from another several couple months of polishing.

 

[njdevil26]

Bioshock Infinite for PS3 is $13 on Amazon. Getting it.

 

[B A T M A N]

That's the kind of deals I've been hunting for. Unfortunately I only see it for $28 on Amazon.

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

with WAtch Dogs being pushed back I need to figure out another release day title to get for PS4.

Killzone: Shadow Fall looks like the only one worth while, imo. Knack looks boring as well. There's a few free-to-play games that will be available too. Iunno man. Launch games are always kinda ****. It'll be a year before good games start coming out.

That's why I'm not itching to get the new Xbox right away.

Titanfall won't be out until the spring.

 

[SeidoN]

wont be buying a new console till NHL15. why wont they release on PC

 

[ScottyK]

Because the older NHL games got pirated to hell.

The console versions combined barely sell 1m copies every year.

I'd kill for a PC version ( MODS OMGZZZZ MODS ) But I completely understand why EA avoids it.

Took them long enough haha

 

[SeidoN]

couple of important GM changes. hoping the development tuning is good

 

[SeidoN]

im hearing the patch has fixed the ridiculous amounts of players turning red stars. they also have a bit more value. ill need to start a new one up and test

EDIT: red star players now have accurate trade value to their overall. thank god.
