GAMING NEWS Thread 1

Curse the delay of Batman! I urgently need something to get me back on my Wii U at the moment.

It might just be completing Pokémon X.

I've never understood that myself, the latest PES actually tries to be a bit like Fifa and it's a worse game than the previous year for it.

I'm afraid, after the 3 previous footy games being PES, I've sided with FIFA. I got fed up with defenders arbitrarily knocking the ball off for a throw-in/corner, not taking into account that they're 20 years from the touchline.

I don't know if I can agree with that, still plays like PES to me & it's still the best football game out there.

I'm still very much camp PES and to be honest I've not played all that much but the overall pacing of the gameplay isn't up to standard for me.

Not sure I've ever had that problem myself.  

The award for 'Unlikeliest Videogaming Kickstarter Revival' goes not to James Pond and his Penguin bars, but to Boogerman!

Bit of an odd one, that. Could be good, but I see there being little-to-no chance of it being funded. Boogerman was the game you rented from Ritz when Earthworm Jim wasn't in. I like it well enough, mind.

What this classic

I know it's basketball but that looks excellent

The 2k NBA games have always looked great though, how the fabric of the players kits moved was the most notible thing for me.

Still saw that guys beard clipping through his chest too.

Yeah my NBA 2K on dreamcast still holds pretty well today.

This was on Japanese TV, showing that rumored new pokemon game starring pikachu in a new and different way.

0:20-0:24, welp, there's my nightmare fuel for the next few weeks.

Titanfall's launch date has been confirmed as the 13th of March 2014 in Europe, with a collectors edition announced at $250. So you guy's now all know when I'm buying a Xbox One 13/5/14.

Pokéhunt, coming soon!

I'm still surprised how a multilayer only game is so popular.

I'm not a huge multi player fan, but it's looking that good I'm willing to get a xbox one just to play it.

Weird thought, there was rumors Nintendo have re-trademarked seaman, a game where a humans face is on a fish. What if this is Pikachu Seaman, instead of a fish it's your face on a pikachu which then look after etc.

So the Xbox One is the 720, but the 720p lot's of rumors all over the interweb that vast majority of games on xbox one including titanfall will only be in 720p. But the rumor started though over Call of Duty Ghosts as the PS4 version is 1080p and the xbox one is apparently only running in 720p, there's even people cancelling there xbox one's because of this and now trying to get PS4's because of Call of Duty.

Cancelling because of a rumour?

Yeah apparently COD fans want 1080p and know they will get it on PS4, and what has been seen apparently of the xbox one version it's 720p. Also Titanfall will be in 720p, that's the biggest game on the xbox one we know of and it's only running in that will put people off, seen people tweet not going to get a xbox one now just going to get titanfall on xbox 360 as it will be the same.

I can get Titanfall in 1080p. I won't, but I can.

PC version then

Update on the rumor I'm now hearing xbox one version of COD will be 720p at 60fps (same as titanfall), the PS4 version will be 1080p but not 60fps (not sure on what it will be,30fps I guess), so it's swings and roundabouts. I do wonder what this means for 4k support if neither console will have all it's games at 1080p & 60fps. I know killzone and flower are both running at 1080p, 60fps on PS4 not sure about the rest of the line up, not a clue about the rest of the xbox one's but you would gather forza 5 is running at 1080p 60fps.

So if you want 1080p & 60fps or even better on every game go build a PC.

720p is still overpriced.

The difference between 720p and 1080p is so negligible in my eyes that it doesn't matter. I barely see a difference.

ohh see I see a difference when I've watched films and played games with my cousins tv that's only 720p, but my main issue is if I'm paying £430 for a xbone then cod on top which another £55 then of course my TV which was £1500, I want it to look the best it can be for all that money.
