What video game are you playing?

[ACamp1900]

Still own and play often enough on my PS3:

World at War (Still fun playing the OG Zombie Mode as it's def teh creepiest and its always good around Halloween and it still manages to give me a fix with my WW2 shooter withdrawals)
Modern Warfare 2 (Still the best COD overall)
Black Ops (Good offline multiplayer)
Black Ops 2 (Best Zombie Mode, play this most often because it's also my wife's fav game ever, also bc of the ZM)

Reminds me of Unreal Tournament...

Didn't you decide to buy Overwatch approximately one hour ago? How do you know ultimate shouts and Winston jokes?

I've followed the game's development for months, watched top players stream on Twitch, seen many Overwatch memes on reddit...

My gaming time is very limited, so I try to come to it well-researched.

Damn you both. Am I the only one on here with a fracking Xbox?

History of my friends first it they were ps2 fanboys. Then they switched to the xbox360 and they swore microsoft was king, and now they all own PS4's and can't believe they ever had a microsoft product.

That has been my transition the last 15ish years (I also owned a PS3 last cycle, but used the 360 far more). I've been pretty pleased with my decision on who to side with each time. This generation there is barely any difference between the consoles and I just prefer Sony's first party developers over Microsoft. Bloodborne alone was good enough to validate my choice.

Interesting. I've been with Xbox since the original. My friends were all on Xbox for Halo and I went there for Knights of the Old Republic. I much prefer the controller and always have. Plus, it was far cheaper when I upgraded to this gen.

Now that I'm thinking about it, I don't think I've ever had a PlayStation. I was one of the idiots who bought a Dreamcast, which was kind of stuck in between the fifth and sixth console generations.

 

[ACamp1900]

The controller was my biggest XBOX draw.. the PS4 controller somewhat lessened that though... at least in terms of 'feel'... I have never disliked the XBOX... but like grey, I've never been big on XBox's exclusives and....

MOR THE SHOW!!!!!

Soul Caliber alone made Dreamcast worth a buy.... I honestly wish I still had one just for that game... but I honestly don't remember another game on DC that I played, at all.

Yeah that exclusivity is some bullshit.

Sonic Adventure 2 - Dreamcast - IGN

Ah yes, I remember my buddy Myron playing that for days...

eh, before FIFA and The Show... there was NCAA and Soul Caliber.

ROLLING AROUND AT THE SPEED OF SOUND

Diehard Nintendo from '88-'97. Still had Nintendo systems after that, but switched to Sony and didn't look back. I briefly tried a Dreamcast, but never owned more than one or two games for it. Never owned a Microsoft X-Box console, and I'm okay with that. This feels like an admission from Video Game Players Anonymous.

That's always been the best argument for Playstation over XBox. The God of War series, the Uncharted series, and The Last of Us included some of the very best titles from the last generation, which XBox owners completely missed out on. And what did Microsoft fans get in return? Halo and Gears of War?

I was one of the idiots who bought a Dreamcast, which was kind of stuck in between the fifth and sixth console generations.

The word you're looking for is "visionaries". I owned one as well. Easily one of the best consoles ever released. Was just very poorly marketed, so it failed. But it was excellent while it lasted.

Agreed. Phenomenal console that I still play to this day. Got Grandia II in the machine right now.

I shall always and forever hate God of War for what it did to other series' like Castlevania, which used to be the shizz... SotN was one of the greatest games ever, CVs on NES were boss hog (yes, even CV 2, come at me) then along came this button mashing abortion of a game in GoW, and now all the boss battles in the new CV are all, "Hit TRIANGLE...... NOW!!! Hit Circle,..... wait.... not ye- NOW!!!" and if you hit the single buttons at the right time,... boss dead, if not, rise repeat and start the sequence over, there is no dying.

I have never never played that much GoW because I disliked that style of game play, but it was fine and dandy until it bleed to other games. I morn for Castlevania (Now known as God-of-Vainia).

I, too, enjoyed the old Castlevania games. 2 is probably my favorite, even though it had it's flaws. SotN was excellent. I have yet to play any of the God of War games, oddly enough. I know what you mean about the button pressing though. The newer Tomb Raider series has it, and a number of other titles I've played recently that escape me.

 

[ACamp1900]

Just saw the Mafia 3 trailer.... Um... Yeah.... THAT... So far,... Looks very promising....

 

[wizards8507]

I've been sprinkling in some platformers here and there in between Overwatch. I finally started Ori and the Blind Forest and that prologue punched me right in the feels. I cried like a giant man-baby.

Agreed. MvC2, Shenmue, and Jet Set Radio were great as well. Shame for Sega that the material was so easy to pirate.

You guys think there's still a decent MW2 community on PS3?

I'm itching to play now, but I'm afraid there's only gonna be like 50 people still playing it online haha.

I want to say I saw quite a few peps on a few months ago... if it's dead just jump no the tactical missions...

 

[wizards8507]

What's the Overwatch community like on PS4? I'm sick of damn idiots on Xbox who 1) don't talk, 2) don't play the objective, and 3) lock on to a single character for an entire match. Nobody ever wants to play tank or support so every team is some combination of Hanzo, Soldier, Widow, Torbjorn, Tracer, Bastion, Reaper Junkrat, Mei, and McCree. I end up with Lucio almost every time simply by default.

That's typically all I play-- tanks and support. Might need to make the switch so you can play with greyhammer and I, though I'm still working on making Overwatch happen. I'll need a Playstation Plus subscription, no? Thought I read that you have to pay to play PS4 games online now.

 

[wizards8507]

The problem with Hanzo.
