You have to keep hitting him with everything you have until his helmet comes off, and then at that point head shots should bring him down.

I'll try again tonight. So far the whole series has been fantastic, game play, story, graphics...everything. Until now. With this train boss or whatever, I feel like I am playing a throwback game for the Nintendo. This game was kind of realistic in regards to death until now. It's kind of ridiculous. Shooting this guy hundreds of times......

I loved the game - don't remember him being THAT hard though. I actually had a ton of trouble getting to him. If you haven't done the truck chase mission yet, you will fall back in love with the game. Multiple trucks moving fast, no time to think - ton of fun.

Oh I'm still enjoying it, one of the best games/series I've ever played. And I've played video games for a looong time. But this guy on the train, and how you have to beat him, just seems really out of place in this game.

I thought eventually you let him get close and then dodge/melee him a couple times. If you don't, the gun battle goes on forever.

Way behind the power curve but, since I stuck with my PS3 for now, I picked up Far Cry 4. A lot of familiarity from FC3, but I consider that a plus. Really enjoying it so far.

That's an idea. If you don't plug in a mic, though, the voice chat will run through the TV too. I always hated that. At least that's how it worked on the 360. I can't speak for the Xbox One.Been awhile since I played online but I think you can just plug in a headset and turn the volume all the way down. The game sound will come from the TV but the mic will travel to the headset.I think you can only do it one player at a time. I have it on Origin (PC), so I don't know if it's different on the Xbox.It really is a harmless online game for kids IMO. Is there an easy way to mute everyone in a match? I was only able to do it manually one player at a time and them when the lobby changes you have to do it again.

Finally beat him. Shot him until he came after me, and this time I was able to successfully dodge his punches and hit him when I could by using the triangle and square buttons. Took a while and my thumb still hurts, but I'm past him. Felt like I was playing a boxing game. Hope there is still a good amount of game left.

I might be liking Uncharted 3 more than 2 and I didn't think that would be possible. But the scenes and "cinematography" of the areas you travel to are amazing. And the story is better. Got the Syria portion of the story last night and the puzzels in the fortress were outstanding, but what was really cool was looking over the walls of the fortress to the city below - looked like it was right out of a hollywood blockbuster.
Really really good franchise.

U2 and U3 were light years ahead in terms of graphics.
I think I'd classify Tomb Raider as Assassin's Creed meets Uncharted...and that's a good thing.

I'll have to go back to Assassin's Creed at some point. I started Black Flag (I think - the one where you are in the futuristic video game simulator) but it didn't catch me and I haven't gone back.

More RTTS talk:
I can't hit a knuckleball to save my life on any level in the game. So I created a knuckleballer and feel a little better by making the AI look as silly as I do. Made the Rangers before the All-Star break, got into the AS Game as a starter after maybe 8 starts, and nearly qualified for pitching categories by year end (I had 158 or so innings...just a few shy of leading the league officially in wins, ERA, WHIP, and such).
I basically play Fallout 4 until my eyes fall out and use RTTS to fill the rest of my nights. Life is good.

Finally got some good time in tonight. First couple of matches I was overwhelmed, but once I figured out some of the strategies, I got hooked. I played about 4 straight hours at that point. Really incredible mix of gameplay and strategy.
I am having a hard time figuring out where enemies can come from. I thought I had a room locked down and boom straight from above.
I've got some coins saved for a few operators - any suggestions? Also how do I put camo and red dot sights on my guns?

One of the tutorials shows you what kind of walls can be breached totally or just damaged, and what they all look like

Right, should have been more specific. I just didn't see the openings above. I'm still on my first or second round on each map so I haven't quite figured out how they flow yet.

Wondering if I should get the Tomb Raider season pass.
If its new content, I'm in. But I don't want to pay $30 for some costumes and one special weapon.

The red dot sights are kind of bad in the game. I prefer the holographic for all operators except the Russians. For them I go with the reflex sight(my favorite), and when certain operators don't have the specific sights on some weapons I go with something else.

When you select the operator you can go in and pick a primary and secondary weapon. From there you can see the accessories available.

You might want to read a wikipedia entry or something just so you know what the hell is going on. There is some backstory involving a centuries-long secret war that it would be helpful to know about.

If I've read everything right, there is only one new story DLC and the rest is challenge modes, skins, cards and the like. Personally I'm passing on it. I'll buy the Baba Yaga DLC but I'm never going to use the rest of the stuff.
ETA: There's an "endurance mode," wave based challenge mode, and the new tomb DLC (Baba Yaga). Then some weapons and skins...

Summary:There is a centuries long war between the Templars (who are bad because...because) vs. Assassin's who are good because...they assassinate Templars...and their friends). If you play video games and have the right DNA you can access the memories of Assassin's and killkillkill!
There is the back story. Go forth and enjoy in confidence that you are fully up to speed.

I guess. Maybe just sell the base game for cheaper than $60 if it's not a full game then if it's just a vessel to sell features that should be included for the $60 fee.

Officially addicted to Rainbow 6.
After years of Search and Destroy on COD, this scratches that itch with specialized operators. I woke up early this morning to play a few rounds before anyone woke up and even took my first vid - nothing special, but the last kill in OT and led the team.

My sister tried buying Xbox Live from that CDKeys website. They charged her card but never sent the code. Now when she tries to get help they're stiff arming her.

Buying Xbox Live from CDKeys was the most unnecessarily complicated transaction I ever completed online. It eventually worked, but it was a PITA and I would never buy from them again.

I need to get this. Figures that a game I've likely been waiting a decade for comes out and I had no idea. Argh.... I'm getting a sleeve done later this month and have no $$$$ for games.

Why? As long as physical copies are being distributed, isn't GameStop going to be around buying and selling?
