TheTruth05 Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 QUOTE (Tony @ Sep 13, 2017 -> 08:13 PM) Anyone got a working PS2 they want to sell? I'm really craving some MVP Baseball/Madden 2005. MVP Baseball on PSP saved me from keeping a working PS2. Not relevant to your question just saying I feel your pain.

I got a "fat" PS2 with all the cords and 2 controllers for like $30 just last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Maybe it's just because it's been so long, but Destiny 2 seems more fun than Destiny. Also, I have a ways to go till I'll be super relevant in multi-player, but I did make it up to 13 last night, so I'm close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are two big things they did that improved progression... 1) No more grinding upgrades on your subclass and gear. I had all three subclasses maxed before I even hit 20 and weapons/armor come upgraded already. 2) Most activities (I don't think the story missions) scale to your level so you're not crushing low level stuff for no rewards while waiting for the reset to do the raid/nightfall for 95% of the time. It really helps a lot when basically anything gives you level appropriate gear (or at least until 265). One thing that annoys me is the vertical maps and random ledges across a chasm. Why am I jumping so much? It's a FPS, not a platformer. I fail miserably in most of these sections, as my fireteam will attest.

Very excited for Wolfenstein 2. Getting a AAA-caliber FPS title is absolutely huge for the system, although I'm sure if it keeps selling well next year's CoD will be on it.

I may just pull the trigger, ha I'm really into the Resident Evil series and the only games I was never able to play growing up were the Outbreak games. I keep hoping they will become available for cheap on PSN along with ability to play online but it doesn't seem like that will ever happen.

Kyyle23 Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Saw a story on twitter the other day about Parasite Eve, I had totally forgotten about that game. Kind of surprised that series didn't continue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starting my franchise with a 97 overall Urlacher, rookie Tillman, rookie Tommie Harris, Brigs, and just a two-headed monster of Thomas Jones-Anthony Thomas in the backfield, haha. Maaaan, i really miss the ps2 maddens/ncaa's. Everything since that era has always felt alot clunkier.

Disappointed, but not because the game still doesn't look awesome, but because it didn't give us a ton of new info. It was essentially a 2nd teaser trailer.

Chicago White Sox Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 For any Switch owners on here, make sure you pick up Steamworld Dig 2. It’s an incredible Metroidvania-styled indie title, but offers a lot of unique ideas & mechanics. It’s also not supposed to be super long (7 to 12 hours), making it a perfect title to fit in before Mario Odyssey arrives in two weeks.

Pretty fun, looking forward to the full experience I haven’t, but the game looks pretty cool and the art style is incredible. I should probably check it out, just have big a back log of games to get to right now plus Mario Odyssey right around the corner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What kind of games are you into? Breath of the Wild & Mario Odyssey are no brainers if you like big single player experiences. Splatoon 2 probably isn’t for everyone, but it’s an incrediblely popular online multiplayer game and the campaign is actually really good (although pretty short). Snipperclips & Puyo Puyo Tetris are both great multiplayer games that are perfect to play with your wife/girlfriend. If you’re into sports games, FIFA is your only other option, although it’s lacking some features of the PS4/Xbox One versions. And there are a ton of great indies, with Steamworld Dig 2 & Cave Story being standouts IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
