For you.
Holy shit! Black Ops III has taken Crysis 2's, Bulletstorm's and TitanFall's movement mechanics, added a touch of their own flair and run with them to make something that looks like the game Seuss has been banging on making for years.

When's the Beta start again?

Just confirm if the PC version has server list or no already! If it has, fucking day one:

Curses 'n' Chaos could be a close second if it comes out this year:

See, I have less of a problem with this because the header is a (nicely drawn) artist's interpretation of the pixel art, an action shot that's clearly not gameplay, like the great coverart from the 8 or 16 bit era.

The designs are also congruent with more detailed pixelart used in the game itself:

There's a clear link here in design. That Aberoth steam header on the other hand is pixelart itself, looking like an innocent environment shot that could easily be taken from the game itself - but the actual game looks absolutely nothing like it. There's no link, no coherence. Just misleading.
 
part I liked from that CoD video...

You know.

I might get this one. I haven't bought a CoD game since World at War to put that in perspective. Last one I actually played was Black Ops 1? Or MW3. over at a friends.

Might bite on this one though.

Yeah. Aberoth looks like it might be an RTS or city building game.

Welp, just bought Rocket League.

I *really* hope they will add someday to play with PS4 users (and not just against them as it's planned). Most of my friends have the game there :(

The ability to play with PS4 users has been added since a few days ago. :)

Theivery from the other thread...

Does seem a bit slower than Titanfall when rooted to the ground but get up in the air, on the walls or sliding and it seems much faster. Obviously first hand experience would be a better judge but I guess that wont be too long now.

That does look cool but the TTK seems lower than ever. It feels like they lower it with every installment (or maybe I'm just getting a year older every time one of these comes around).

If they keep up with this they'll eventually make ARMA combat look arcadey compared to COD.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
RIP jshackles' sanity.

Exactly what I was thinking. Oh well, good for them for at least acknowledging that their sites need overhauled.

The good news is that so far after looking over a few things, this appears to work just fine with the existing ES code.

Cos Metal Gear Solid is old, clunky and fugly as hell and the remake is Gamecube exclusive, and introduces mechanics which break many encounters? Nevermind the dumb as hell over-the-top cinematics.

I can understand the gamecube complaints, but the stuff about MGS1 might be a bit much.

The over the top cinematics are the saving grace of Twin Snakes. They reach "so bad it's good" levels of dumb that only MGS4 really manages to top with the dance off between Raiden and Vamp.

Liquid does so many unnecessary flips during the cutscene on the walkway in front of REX that it becomes unintentionally silly. The scene where Snake back flips to dodge a bullet is also equally dumb.

Hahaha who said anything about defending? Why do there always have to be these lines in the sand, diametrically opposed sides and embattled positions? Look opinions are fine and all but context is key and an opinion without context is more vapid that a review judged solely on its score. I've read that thread and for every well though out and reasoned post there are 20 "REwhatever > Your fav RE > Gun Survivor" posts. Fair do's you mentioned the thread but come on we're on a discussion forum and I would have hopped that my post might have sparked some debate amongst the thread. Bloody well didn't but hey I tried

RE6 did actual damage to a friendship of mine.

That is legit Titanfall.

But like good and not a gameplay turd.

Is there a named 'law' for how certain it is that after someone mentions FF or MGS everyone starts posting their favourites lists? If not, let's call it the Ruruja Law.

Also I just watched 8 episodes of Mr Robot and it's fantastic, you should all watch it.

I also like Steam. Bought FF Type-0 off GMG.
 
Tera is still fun to play despite disconnect issues and generic quests.

Yeah, Tera is a fun mmo, especially the combat.
I also loved the outfits. Besides the infamous female outfits, the male characters got cool outfits & armors as well.

However, I'm in love in ESO armors now. They are so detailed I stare at them sometimes.
Character models though, not so good.
