Random Gaming Thoughts Thread *NO NEWS ITEMS*

Man, they've seriously underrated Zombi U. Am I the only one who still thinks that was a great game?

Thought they over rated as they gave it a 6 (Greg Miller) and places 13 on the list, shows scores mean nothing or the peeps doing the list liked it a lot more then Greg.

Kinda news but what do you guys think about the news that you could plug a PS4 into a Xbox One VIA it's HDMI in and have the PS4 show up on the xbone's dashboard. So you could switch between forza 5 and killzone in one click.


I'm wondering what would happen if you plugged a xbone into a xbone then something into that and how far could you go, and a xbone plugged into it's self (no way to see what it would like).

Nope, it'd easily be in my top 5 & not on the low side either.

The top 25 360 games are here, very interested in this as the PS3 had 7 exclusives and the wii u had 6 in the top 10.

25 splinter cell blacklist
24 alan wake
23 rayman legends
22 minecraft
21 state of decay
20 gears of war 3
19 forza 4
18 fez
17 read dead redemption
16 dishonored
15 mark of the ninja
14 fallout 3
13 limbo
12 bioshock infinite
11 bioshock
10 batman arkham city
9 mirrors edge
8 the walking dead the game
7 skyrim
6 the orange box
5 portal 2
4 rock band 3
3 halo 4
2 GTA V
1 Mass Effect Trilogy

So 1 exclusive in the top 10.

If anyone is interested GT have now done there top 5 exclusive anticipated downloadable game on PS4 & xbone,

Xbone: 5 D4, 4 Project Spark, 3 Peggle 2, 2 Killer Instinct, 1 Below
PS4: 5 ResoGun, 4 Contrast, 3 Rime, 2 Transistor, 1 The Witness

So the PS4 list looks more on the indie side, which is a good thing. Disappointed Crimson Dragon didn't make the Xbone list but good titles there. I'm getting really excited for the this two consoles now seeing things like these top 5 and IGN's top 25 showing what was great on the previous gen let's get ready for the new one. And the stuff coming out of TGS like Deep Down being a free to play download exclusive to PS4, I gather GT done the list before DD was confirmed as a F2P early this morning.

Doesn't surprise me, I've often thought 360 had the least appealing exclusives.

Alan Wake has been a bit hard done by. It's the (possibly unless the Witcher 2 is better, though it's a shame that didn't even place) best 360 exclusive.

Shit! I pressed the fucking jump button & he just ran off the ledge.

...can't say I get the reference there, Jas. Did you get the wrong thread?

Okay, I have a Phoenix Wright-related question.  A copy of Apollo Justice should be winging its way to me some time this week, but the impression I get from the DS voting thread is that it's nowhere near as good as the initial trilogy.  Is this accurate?  And while we're on the subject, how similar is Edgeworth: Investigations to the rest of the series?

Apollo is just long and in the final case which is quite long it got a bit mundane, but for Edgeworth I personally loved that game.

I thought Apollo's last case was one of its better ones. It's good but it's probably the worst in the series with the key addition of the lie detecting thing not really adding a whole lot. As for Myles it plays pretty much the same just not in a court setting and it's brilliant.

Shanks muchly, you two. I'll be prepared for slight mediocrity when AJ hits, then - and be very disappointed if MEI is any less than wonderful.

Apollo's last case was brilliant don't get me wrong but it was long

For someone that presents a lot of gaming awards and claims to be a huge gamer, Dara O'Brian knows diddly squat about what makes a good game.

No reference its was a literal random gaming thought

My random gaming thoughts usually boil down to: "shitting wankstain, JUMP! I PRESSED JUMP YOU FUCK!"...I'm an angry gamer.

Reading that reminded me of the time my friends and I were playing Mercenaries on Resi 4 and My mum walked in just as I was sitting something like "SHOOT HER IN HER FUCKING FACE WHILE SHE'S ON HER KNEES"

Buska's Mum: "That's my boy! IN THE FACE!"

I've had another go at making a video, I was inspired by a twitter account asking what your top 7 anticipated PS4 games are, so I made a video. I'm going to do a Xbone and a multi platform video's as well.

Please watch and any feedback would be great, helps me in the future as I might do the results from my vote thread in video form in some way.

Also waiting for Andy to go there's to much Indie.

If you'd met my mum you'd know that wasn't far off...

I'd say that's not a bad list actually when you consider PS4 exclusives are lacking at the moment. I'm not so sure about your 7th choice and I'd question how high you've put the game by the Bastion guys but I'd say it's fair.

My one critisism though is that the Deep Down trailer went on much longer than anything else, I didn't mind so much this time as I'd not seen anything gameplaywise but had anything else been that long (in fact inFamous might have, I stopped there as I'd already seen it) then I wouldn't have been as impressed.

Still it's a pretty good job for your second vid.

Bastion was excellent, so makes sense why I've put there follow up so high. Same with resogun being on the list super stardust is great especially the vita version. I couldn't find much on Deep Down apart from that or 15 min long vids or on stage showings off it.

For you Last of Us Fans, Spoilers in the video

Another Video by me, I know I could put this in YouTube thread but would be cool to discuss what you guys think. And I will be doing a Wii U Top 7 as well.

I really dislike how DLC has become a pre order bonus these days. Random tat FTW!

Yeah, that annoys me on two levels; I miss havng physical things in the box like the trainer guides with pokemon games and also if you can announce it months in advance, it doesn't need to be DLC.
