I haven't posted in this forums for years, I was in my late twenties when I started following giant bomb back in 08, now I'm 40. It is crazy how fast time goes by. I wish the best for the ones that are leaving, and I'll be hanging around for what's next.

I find the gun fetishism and war mongering of COD games far more offensive, toxic, and actually dangerous to the human race

but hey, I'm not american, and have always find strange then things that are seen as offensive in the land of the free

Lets just say sexy anime girls are not actually triggering a public mass shooting epidemic in japan

I was done with it in the beta.

Maybe is just me but I really don't base my video game choices because streamers are getting "fun" with X game. Feels to me that a streamer friendly game is not necessary a good / fun game for me (or most people actually). Some of my favorite genres and games are a chore to watch.

I hesitantly bought a Rift Touch bundle last month, turns out Rec Room is the actual MVP. Rec Room is the next level of fun social shenanigans in a video game, the real VR killer app

Haven't had this much fun in a multiplayer game since... I guess the WOTLK days

For whatever reason I felt the urge and bought COD4 remaster last week.

Ohh boy that game is a masterpiece, so many memorable moments, characters, the narrative is a 10.

Plus best multiplayer maps in the series bar none.

Is super cheesy to say, but: that game changed (videogame) history

@murdoc_: Makes sense, maybe just bad timing. If I recall correctly this mandated started at the end of last gen.

I imagine that : working with new tech + support old & new consoles + pc = not easy at all.

Hey there duders, I'm going out on a limb into speculation land. But it ocurs to me, that since EA adopted Frostbite (as mandate) for all their internal studios; there was a significant quality hit in all their games other than Battlefield.

As impressive as Battlefield games can be, it would appear that everyone else that is not making a shooter is having a hard time with Frostbite.

Frostbite was build to make Battlefield, and the engine inability to make other than a shooter seems like a recurrent theme in (ex)/EA employee interviews.

What are your thoughts ?

Talking about Last Of Us 2 I just find it tiresome, I'm sick and tired of post-apocalyptic zombie, but human nature is the real "bad guy" scenario.

Seriously people over analyze on the "philosophy of The Walking Dead" (or alike). I feel this kind of stories get to much credit for what they are, they basically Mexican soap operas with zombies. THE DRAMA!!

@jec03: Is all about perspective, based in you argument seems like you care more about visual fidelity than anything else. Personally speaking couldn't care less about fidelity .

I care more about gameplay, systems and mechanics. I don't think there is been a better time to play than today. So many interesting games with unusual concepts coming out each week.
