Last Activision game I purchased was Modern Warfare 2. I have no problem buying an EA game (as long as it's something I'm interested in. I don't buy games just because of who published it). EA gets a bad rep when guys like Nintendo get away with terrible customer service and putting out nothing but reboots and junk. At least EA doesn't make you pay for the privilege of streaming their games on Youtube or Twitch - although I guess I should say "yet".
just a little follow up
You are correct, except most of the nerd cred for those games were from when the original titles were made prior to EAservatude. Either way I like the games but it hurts knowing they could be better.
No offense but, while the hate for EA has a legitimate foundation in their business practices, it seems that hating EA is another means of demonstrating "nerd cred". From my perspective ME3 = awesome, Dead Space 3 = Awesome. The business practice sucks but the games are still legit. It's another reason why I have been hesitant to switch to console gaming, at least with PC I know that eventually I can get any of these games around the $10 price point. It seems unlikely that will happen with any regularity in the consoles realm.
If this is indeed happening......I am so in. I logged 230 plus hours on Skyrim on the PS3....never even finished the main quest (yet).
That and Pillars of Eternity - both excellent games. Lots of detail and optional side quests. Good walkthroughs available if you get stuck.
They are worse than if a pit-bull had child with Hitler. They should be called Hitbulls...or Pitlers.
No alternatives that I know of. If you were a hardcore PC guy, yea, I could see it being a huge difference - a controller simply isn't as precise as a mouse. But then again, look at it this way - a mouse/keyboard is almost cheat mode. A controller is also closer to having a gun in your hand than a mouse is. You'll get used to it.
heh heh - you will get used to it. (the controller, not the... thing your friend had)
You're handicapping yourself. No matter how well you do with that controller, you would do better if you learned to use the mouse.
Part of my issue is that my gaming PC is also my living room PC, so I'll need to come up with a system that lets me use a mouse/keyboard on a recliner.
I'm going to hold out hope that they allow mods on consoles like in Fallout 4. It would be glorious.
Says "not available" when you get to the xbox store page now unless I am doing it wrong.
It is the biggest love hate game on the Xbox pretty much. People who play shooters don't like the controls because they are different. I'll say one thing though, if you sensitivity settings are stock, then it will feel like ####. At least up the move(1st) to about 60- 75% and the aim(2nd) to whatever your comfortable with. I have friends that play on 90-100% while I use 40-60% depending on the title. But these changes make a huge difference and if they are wrong, it can make the game feel either super sluggish or way to sensitive. Actually with every console game adjust the sensitivity as soon as you start it.
It's probably the best "I've got 10 free minutes" game I've ever played. It's fun and it's fast.
True, but "I've got 10 free minutes" turns into 2 hours really fast when you're like "Ok, one more game." after every game. I hope Insein likes it.
So how does this work? You get to DL & play for free until Sunday then if you want to continue playing you have to buy it?
Seems like it. It's like a crack dealer. They'll give you a sample cause they know you'll be back.
Thanks mad, I will give it a go.
Is that a big deal? Do you lose replay value or something?
Madden 15 is pretty good. Might be the best since 2010 but it has its flaws.
They pulled the licenses and gave $10 credits. Probably wouldn't have played it anyway.
