Ugh, I couldnt stand the community of SOCOM. The only people that can get into it are the guys who've played it since the first and second games. If you show any signs of being a new guy, even if you're kind and eager to learn, they boot you from the game because they're so full of themselves.
I usually have 8AM classes or 9AM classes and then have to wait 6 hours before my next class and go home, but usually after my first classes are done I check my emails and such. Almost every day, even though I tell myself not to, I check Giantbomb even though I know they're west coast based and info probably wont be up until 12PM EST. It's hard to break the habit, but it's one of my first bookmarks and I always have that, "What if they updated it?" feeling.
" Even though I really liked Uncharted 2, I'm not really pleased with this choice. I mean Uncharted 2 had amazing presentation, but people seem so strangely oblivious to the mediocre shooting and wonky controls that plagued the first game as well. In this one they get it a bit better but honestly its a competent shooter at best. In the podcast you guys would not stop talking about the games presentation and "OMG WTF" moments, but never mentioned the core gameplay which is a testament to the games strengths, but also displays its overlooked weaknesses. "
When I first got it, I remember I sat there going, "What makes this game so good?" And for the life of me I couldnt figure out what it was. But instead of looking for its features I looked at it as a whole. At its core its a fun game to play and can be playable and competitive without any kind of cover gimmicks, perk gimmicks, etc. The closest thing it has is the climbing feature, but in all reality it's so well done that its part of the game. It's just a game that was incredibly well done.
Elder Scrolls V will probably come out when new technology is available. Unlike most company's they want their games to be amazing enough to last years before they feel the need to release a sequel.
As for this, I find it very interesting, seeing as many people were drawing similarities between Rage and Fallout 3.
Now COD wasnt always terrible with community. COD1 was great because no one could talk and typing was the only form of communication. So if someone was calling every racial expletives by the time they were done they either got banned or killed 5 times.
