I've played colonial marines 1886 is on par if not worse in terms of AI. All the AI seems to understand how to do is charge you head on which leads to some cheap deaths on occasion. Most of the level design is pretty basic and confined though so teaching them how to flank would have been an utter waste in most of the fights anyways :P.

Just finished it and overall I really liked the where the story went for the last third of the game. The graphics were also very nice I was especially impressed with the textures. The gun play however was kind of meh like most other third person cover based shooters it was very similar to Uncharted in a lot of ways. There were also some horrible stealth areas which were really easy but some of the guard placements were horrible(guards around blind corners) resulting in some trial and error game play. Plus stealth kills were annoying since they took 2-3 seconds to active and required a QTE to perform. The major bosses were also QTE battles for the most part with some minor interaction as you got to choose between fast/strong attacks between dodges but that really didn't affect much. Really It was a good game for $10 and I wouldn't mind playing a sequel(since the story leaves quite a few loose ends), but I figure that probably isn't going to happen.

One thing I found funny was the knights inability to dispatch an enemy without jabbing a blade through them repeatedly. Was especially funny in segments where your character specifically mentioned his desire to avoid killing potentially innocent guards :lol: .

Bought a PS4 again building the collection all over so far gots Division, Senran Kagura and Doom on preorder also bought 10 games which I won't bore you with a list. Lol

Who's in on the Division, I passed on the beta but dispite any negatives I'm still super stoked after the last couple of years for this.

I've got it preordered, but it's the XB1 version. Best buy has it in their $10 gift card for preordering program plus they had a promotion back in December that gave you an extra $5-10 gift card if you ordered on a specific date. That was on top of the 20% off that I get with GCU so it ended up costing $47.93 and I get an additional $15-20 in gift cards as well as rewards points :D . Might swap it over to the PS4 if they let me when I pick it up.

Started J-Stars Victory Vs+ and was really surprised by it. Didn't realize it was a team based 3d arena brawler got mixed up and thought it was a 2d fighter like Dengeki Bunko: Fighting Climax :lol: . Anyways the roster of characters is huge and I'm really enjoying the story mode currently playing through the one piece arc.

My neighbor loves that game, but I just can't get into it. The main problem with me is that I don't care at all about hardly any of the characters.

Nice some Division folks!

Just heard they are doing RE 4,5,6 on PS4 costing $20 each with possible physical releases. Not too sure how I feel about it but initially I got excited and then realized I have them all already, conundrum of the day.

PSA: Assault Android Cactus hits PS4 today. 30% for PS+ subscribers. It is cross buy with the Vita version (which is not out yet). Similar to Croixleur Sigma, the Vita version will be released at a later date and can be downloaded for free if you had already bought the PS4 version.

Go buy GunScape, I don't care for Minecraft but this game is much better imo. Block building is about the only thing in common but the blocks have better textures and once a level is done visually looks like PS2 graphics similar to Timesplitters and such. Has weapons and power up pick ups, getting started is easy and there are many different game modes. Games can be arena shooters, escape maps, coop levels and everything!
