OT: Fanboy fight: XBox V Playstation

Not sure where you've been looking but it has a 91 on Metacritic. Which basically amalgamates all the reviews from major game review sites.

just from friends - maybe from overhype?

is 91 on metacritic good?

 

[Metalleaf]

Yes. Skyrim got a 94 on Metacritic.

worm, whats your impression of Fallout 4 so far?



I'm in the same boat as you, never having played that series before. You digging it?

I played for about an hour.

The story seems cool but I find it does not really tell you how to play. Those videos that rumple showed will probably help.

I do not have many thoughts yet. Would need to play more. First impressions...Destiny and MGS5 are much better but most of that is because the game does not really tell you want to do. I had no idea I could "scrap" things or build things. Haha.

I know that many of you poo poo the COD franchise... but Black Ops 3 plays very well. It has one of the best "hit sensations" in the franchise for a while.

all of the guns as well are totally usable. Some of the old COD's had sniper rifles of SMG's that were ridiculous to use.

Also the whole feature of choosing specific players with power ups is fun.

I'm having a blast playing this one.

Fallout and Skyrim are about exploration first, story second. If you aren't willing put time in to explore the series isn't for you.

That was one of the things I really loved about Destiny early on....was how little was explained to you early on, so you basically pixel it up as you went, and from conversations with other players. Made it an intriguing experience.

That Fallout 4 universe is intimidatingly huge tho.
