Good, but could be better
on November 12, 2014
Posted by: amp9211

I will skip over the problems that are currently going on with the matchmaking, those will be fixed shortly. However, I have noticed immediately that there are several features that were just glazed over (customization of MC, previewing of custom colors, sound hiccups in campaign, etc). To me, this feels like a beta test at this point.
I hope that 343 is listening to the criticism and will be fixing these problems with updates. It is just disappointing in this day that a lot of these issues were not taken care of before release. I know that 343 had a lot of developers working on this game, but it was ultimately Microsoft's and their responsibility to ensure a clean game at release.
This is a fun game to play, and no doubt I will enjoy it...but it needs buttoned up!

Good, but the first was better

I thought that this was a good movie, but I thought that the racing movie was better. The supporting cast in the first movie I thought was better, and the overall plot was a bit fresher. This one just seemed to be spit out to take advantage of the first movie.

This new unit is a big adjustment to the XBOX 360. There are quite a few changes that take some getting used to with the software. However, they are constantly keeping the OS updated, and that is a big bonus. To see the constant push for updates and listening to the consumers is a great thing. Keep up the good work!

Very Impressive!

Posted by: amp9211

I have been very impressed with this since I purchased it last week. It is hard to imagine such great sound coming from the speakers that this unit has. I knew going into it that this is a bigger unit and the it's portability was questionable. I walked about 30' away from the unit and it was still playing flawlessly.
As others have stated, this unit is heavy and it is a shame that it does not have a rechargeable battery with it. But then again, this keeps the cost down and leaves it up to the buyer to determine how portable they want it to be.

Good for the most part.

Posted by: amp9211
from Edgerton, WI
I like this game a lot, but there are a few issues that I hope they work out. On some of the tighter maps, you can get stuck really easily on each other if you are in Titans. This can be very bad when you are trying to get somewhere in a hurry. The game is still buggy, but hopefully that will be polished with an update. I really wished that the "campaign" had more of a story to it rather than "here are a few extra bits of dialogue that aren't in the classic multiplayer".
Overall I think this is a great game and has changed the typical FPS positively, but it still needs work.
What's great about it: replayability, graphics, TITANS!!!
What's not so great: buggy, campaign mode

Battlefield 4 is the genre-defining action blockbuster made from moments that blur the line between game and glory. Fueled by the next-generation power and fidelity of the Frostbite 3 engine, this epic sequel provides a visceral, dramatic experience you haven't yet experienced on the Battlefield.Only on the Battlefield can you experience Levolution, which allows you to change the landscape in real-time with interactive environments that react to your every move. Lead an assault from the back of a gun boat, or personally turn the tide of battle as you lead your squad in Command mode. Battlefield grants you the freedom to do more and be more while playing to your strengths and carving your own path to victory. In addition to its hallmark multiplayer, Battlefield 4 features an intense, dramatic character-driven campaign that starts with the evacuation of American VIPs from Shanghai and follows your squad's perilous journey. There is no comparison. You thrive amid the glorious chaos of all-out war. Legends are made on the Battlefield.

Mirror gloss black top bad idea
By ReviewerFourteen from Boston
Designed to look nice, well packed, high gloss mirror back top had a sticky plastic sheet on it, but underneath were lots of scratches. Yeah it's a shredder, not a flat panel TV, but for $120 I expect better, and not someone to hide their mistakes.
I don't know how it works, I repacked it and heading back to Best Buy.

I have no clue why the other guy gave it 2 stars and took it back all for it having scratched on the top. Mine looks and works perfect. So much nicer than my old shredder. Very large and pretty darn quiet!

Put on your shades and prepare to step into the boots of Duke Nukem, whose legend has reached epic proportions in the years since his last adventure. The alien hordes are invading and only Duke can save the world. Pig cops, alien shrink rays and enormous alien bosses can't stop our hero from accomplishing his goal: to save the world, save the babes and to be a bad-ass while doing it.

How Are Customers Reviewing Unreleased Games?
By MikeInSWFL from SWFL
How is it that a game that has not even reached the general public yet is getting reviewed by a customer? I'd advise against trusting any posted opinions presented until the game actually hits the market.

please explain how you save money
January 3, 2013
If you buy 1600 points at $20, it equals $.0125 per point. If you buy 4000 points at $50, it equals $.0125 per point. If you spend $1 on 80 points, it equals $.0125 per point. It does not matter the denomination, all purchases of points are the exact same (80 points per $1), unless you find them on sale somewhere.
