2017 is freaking insane for games. I need to clone myself. Or take a vacation.

Hey it's the Xbox Family Fun Bundle Price Drop to $299 (from $474; save $175) thread

 

[NSESN]

Good thing about the DF thread is that this one will have much less troll posts now.

 

[GregLombardi]

Wow, the score at gamerankings is going up again

Oh damn stone cold.lol

So in pure average it's the highest rated. That's arguably more impressive.

 

[papercan55]

So good...

It has a few reviews to go I think. Both Galaxy games have more reviews right now on Gamerankings.

Wrong thread.

Waiting for it to reach 99.

 

[SgtCobra]

Played 2 hours today and I'm really liking it so far, it's fun as hell and the sense of discovery is very apparent which is something that I kinda miss in games nowadays.

Why am I not surprised seeing this here.

 

[Dark Cloud]

I always use Gamerankings

That's true but if the methodology is the same as open critic it should be pretty close

I haven't played much of the game yet but I'm seriously at a loss at these scores. Crazy.

Hopefully I'll understand better by the end, though I mostly got it because my gf loves the series more than anything.

These are all extremely early gameplay things, so I would think these are okay to post.

I'm getting kind of frustrated playing the game. This is my first Zelda. I have had a bow for the last hour+ of gameplay but I don't have any arrows. I don't see a crafting menu. How do I get arrows?

Also, the old guy at the Great Plateau wants me to complete four Shrines so that he will give me the paraglider, and find them using the Sheikah Slate from on top of the tower. Try as I might, I can only find three up there. I looked forever. And then, I went ahead and figured I would just try and complete the ones I DID find and maybe stumble upon the fourth. Well, I did one, and then went to complete another but I don't know how to get across this gap.

It goes down to the abyss. You can see from the minimap that the Shrine is really close.

Also, screenshots are insanely compressed. I don't think it's ALL Twitter's fault either, since I've seen pretty nice quality from PS4 shots posted on Twitter.

At the very least you'll need an axe. Did you get the one very very early on in the game?

You can't craft arrows, you have to find them from enemies. Find an enemy camp that has someone with arrows and take them from him

Spoiler for how to cross that gap

Spoiler

You can chop down trees in this game. Chop down the tree next to you. It is affected by physics though so make sure it falls flat

He's wearing an axe

Link's a Lumberjack and he's OK

Kill a bokoblin with a bow to get arrows

Get a grip.

You'll understand within 10 min of playing.

Ironically, the cartoon means every boy (except Bart obviously) wants Horizon, not Zelda, so it probably doesn't say what the poster wanted to say.

That's absolutely and very clearly not what the "cartoon" means. It jokes about Marge being a clueless but loving mom that shouldn't trust on clerks because nobody should.

Use the [OT] guys, what the fuck

Thanks, guys! Completely forgot about that ability.

Oh I didn't realize it was up. I figured it would be at the top of the page and it wasn't.

 

[Krisprolls]

So the clerk doesn't know which game people buy these days ? Looks dubious, he's the one taking the money. Then again, Horizon launched earlier so maybe it makes sense.

With 60 million PS4 already out, Horizon will sell a lot more anyway so I can see why he believes that.

 

[CharminUltra]

I mean, I get that Link wants to be a lumberjack, but like, based on the gifs floating around, he probably shouldn't quit his day job.

Please watch more of The Simpsons and stop embarrassing yourself.

*grows up to be a serial killer*

I don't think you understand the reference at all. Read the manga Monster. It related to that other gif, but not this one.

 

[Bert409]

I don't know fanboys even bother shitting on Nintendo when they're clearly no threat to Sony/Microsoft.

 

[unrealist]

I was skeptical of the reviews till I play it. It's really damn good .. it feels like Zelda and don't feel like Zelda at the same time, it's really hard to describe.

[Nepenthe]

Are people really catching feelings from these Simpsons memes? Both games are great (I say this having ironically not touched Zelda yet.) However, one is being considered a once-in-a-blue-moon masterpiece. A little ribbing is okay.

 

[TangoAlphaLima]

But both games are great.

A lot of sensitive folks on GAF.

So was lee carvallo's putting challenge.

 

[Spehornoob]

Why did this rivalry between Zelda fans and Horizon fans develop?

 

[Malus]

Another score up on MC, 10/10 from Digital Spy. Still holdin strong.

 

[DrArchon]

Jesus Christ, 64 reviews on Metacritic but still holding at 98 points. That's insane.

These negative user reviews give me life though. So many copy-pasted "reviews", so many people calling out Nintendo's bribes, so many people freely admitting that they don't plan on playing the game before rating it, it's delicious to look at.

Metacritic user reviews: Somehow less useful than Steam user reviews.

 

[LotusHD]

Why did this rivalry between Zelda fans and Horizon fans develop?

Both wield bows, both have post-apocalyptic settings where machines roam around, both have plots that presumably revolve around finding out what happened in the past, both are open world games, etc.

But most importantly... They released close to one another.

Only one has bad framedrops though.



When I do get a Switch, which I hope is this year (come on bundles) I'll treat it exclusively as a handheld.

Also add high profile and highly anticipated.
