OT: Video Game Thread Part IV

[Emperoreddy]

Sorry to break the NHL talk, but in some other gaming news for those still interesting in the Nintendo side of things.

The 3DS demo for Smash Brothers hits next week and it seems the final roster has finally leaked. Biggest surprise?

The ****ing Dog from Duck Hunt!!!! I can't wait to smash his head in.

I sense some unresolved issues Eddy. Do you also hold a grudge against Cheetah and the power pad?

 

[Devils Trap]

I present to you NHL 15



Thank the Lord this didnt happen to me or my TV/Controller etc would be destroyed

Not my fault the Duck didn't get hit. It was the damn gun...I swear!!!!

Oh man, I heard they were making the trapezoid bigger but I didn't know that would affect the goal line.

So I just keep discovering more crap that is missing from NHL 15.
There's no three star selection after games. I mean that is not really a reason to riot... but how much time and effort did that save by not including it? I really don't get what happened to this game.

Not being able to sim to your next shift in Be a Pro plus no juniors or minors absolutely ruins that mode.

 

[Better Call Sal]

Wow at that goal

I'm so glad I didn't drop money for a new system just for NHL 15 like I had debated a couple months back. I'm not even buying the 360 version either, though the Be a GM revamp in terms of progession and realism is something I do appreciate.

I think they said the 3 stars or something will be in a coming update.

 

[njdevil26]

I'm disappointed at the stuff missing... but I have to say the game is really fun to play and the presentation is outstanding.

 

[Devils731]

I'm really enjoying playing the games in NHL 15 but I can't wait for the October patch for the Be-a-GM mode update.

I'll probably end up having 2 or 3 solid runs playing this game as every few months the patches will be add enough back into the game that I pick it back up again after wearing myself out on it.

Be a GM is in it now.

The updates for it. Right now you can't choose who you draft or set a team strategy for more than a game. No AHL games are currently played either(I don't think they plan on adding that back in).

 

[Sinner Devil]

I decided to get it after all the patches and it'll cost about half by then.

Good luck because next gen games haven't been discounted very quickly. EA usually has good deals around Black Friday. You will be able to find NHL, FIFA, and Madden for half off.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Picked up the Smash demo. Definitely classic fun, seems a bit faster then Brawl was. I'll be picking it up, will share friend codes if anyone else has a 3DS haha.

Man NHL 15 looks pretty visually, but looks pretty broken too. Kind of common with the first next gen titles. 16 should be better, but the lack of proper competition is really hurting the market with sports titles in general IMO.

I finally got Diablo 3. Got it mainly for couch co op. Is the game all in the dark? I hope that the darkness doesn't turn out lik need for speed carbon. At least when I was playing Lord of the Rings war in the North, the game had a lot of different settings and brightness levels. It also was couch co op. Pretty sure I got the ultimate evil edition of Diablo.

 

[njdevil26]

Couch co op meaning more than one person on the same system?

All in the dark how you mean? The fog of war or is it just overall dark?

Meant the night setting. I am 12 hours in to the game and it is still night. Curious to know if daylight takes place. But I guess I will just keep on playing.

 

[njdevil26]

Just picked up Fifa 15.... Anyone want to play anything? Here are the games I have:


Playstation 4: Gamertag theMayor2628
NHL 15

XBOX One: Gamertag tmoney2628
FIFA 15
Destiny
Fifa 14
Madden 25
Battlefield 4
Titanfall
Need For Speed Rivals
Forza 5

 

[DenisSamson3]

You sure have a library already for the new console. Great variety of games.

 

[njdevil26]

I actually didn't buy Fifa 14, Madden 25, Need for Speed Rivals, and Battlefield 4. I subscribe to EA Access. For $5 a month you get these games for free. So basically you pay $60 for a whole year to play four games instead of $240 to by four games.

 

[MountainGoat]

Anyone else bored with Destiny? I'm thinking about trading it in for the last of us, I still haven't played that game.

 

[njdevil26]

I'm still enjoying Destiny.... but I would recommend The Last of Us all day and night.

I bought Destiny day one and still haven't played it.

I am still playing Last Of Us...so good. On my second time through it now. I just started the campaign on the highest difficulty last night. Died so many times, but so much fun.
