He's not talking about it's popularity he's talking about his personal view of it's quality. You're the one who is talking about popularity which obviously nobody can dispute raw numbers and nobody was trying to which makes it a completely boring and pointless conversation.

I sold my watchdogs preorder code and bought Killzone (seriously someone gave me 20 bucks for that code) because I wanted to shoot people online. I have never played a Killzone game other than the vita one. Am I going to be massively disappointed or only a little?

I'm watching this hour long footage on Giantbomb of Destiny and I'm just not feeling this game at all.
I dunno what it is about this game that isn't grabbing me exactly.

Maybe it just plays a lot better than it shows, which is why I'm hoping to get into the alpha so I can see.

Yeah I mean I want to be excited about it because I love the old Halo games (basically everything but 4) and I want to be able to trust Bungie to do good but if its just a different Borderlands I know I'm going to hate it because man those games are just so tedious to me. I haven't really been following it too closely though so maybe theres more to it and I'm just out of the loop. At least they are doing Alphas and Betas and stuff. Not that I'll ever get in any....

I played 30 minutes of Destiny, and was a bit underwhelmed. I probably just need to get into the multiplayer. Does it dump you into a server with other players if people are online, or do you have to specifically select it?

There's a thread for Destiny so we should probably move all this talk over there eventually but there is more than 1 type of multiplayer. If you're doing missions or exploring other players will just show up in your game.l, you don't have to do anything. You can also do PVP but you have to seek that out from your space ship.

I'm confused. I thought Destiny was supposed to be a multiplayer game? I've put maybe 6 or so hours in and I've never seen another player. Not in the PvE area, nor in the social area. Also, the one time I tried to get into a PvP game it sat for about 10-15 minutes and didn't find anyone else.

This game is going to fulfill my need to be in the world of every 70's prog rock album cover - it's the best. I hope the full game has tons of pulpy stuff to it.

Isn't this game what Halo was supposed to be originally when it was coming to PC? A giant, open world FPS?

I'm sure it's kind of the evolution of what they've been wanting to do for awhile. Halo ODST is actually pretty similar really too just on a much smaller level. There is one big map, groups of enemies wander around on it. Sometimes they fight amoung themselves. Obviously Destiny is a far more developed and refined concept.

I put a video of my daughter dancing on my youtube account that 3 people know about and they sent me a warning because there was a song on the radio in the background. Now that video has ads, which I'm sure the record company that owns the song appriciates the 6 views it's gotten

I always think backwards-compatibility is a bit of a false economy anyway, people always bitch and moan how much they want it at console launch, but 2 years down the line you're going to be too busy playing new games to give a gently caress about the old ones and a lot of the good games will probably get "HD" re-releases anyway.

I dont know, I probably would have bought an Xbox One if they had backwards compatibility and PS4 didn't since I was more heavily invested in the 360 than the PS3. Since neither of them had it I just went with the one that was more attractive now.

Also, I'm always going to want to play Spelunky :colbert:

I've been enjoying Watch Dogs in my time with it. I only bought it so I could have something to play on my PS4 so maybe I just haven't experienced a lot of better stuff but its fun to do all the hacking stuff in the game, its like an open world game with super powers, which to me is better than one without them. The story is pretty bad but whatever, story is over rated in games anyways. I like doing the gang hideout missions without using guns just blowing up transformers and peoples grenades (which have wifi or bluetooth or something for some reason?!) and what not.

They should really let you dual wield pistols at the very least, in the alpha they were pretty much useless except for style points compared to the other primary weapons.
