From Remedy Entertainment, the masters of cinematic action games, comes a time-amplified suspenseful blockbuster. Time is your greatest weapon as the end of time threatens. An intense and thrilling storyline brought to life in a way never done before by fusing gameplay and a gripping live action show.

Check it out. Just not for me
on April 21, 2016
Posted by: mattalert
Verified Purchase:Yes
Just one of those games that might be polarizing to some players. For me personally, I love Remedy and thoroughly enjoyed the "recent" Max Payne 3 and Alan Wake. Quantum Break to me is a disjointed mess of action and bad platforming. The TV show episodes were a waste of resources in my opinion and could have been scrapped to put more into the game itself, plus they are roughly 30 minutes each.
It's one of those games that people should check out and experience for themselves. I'm glad I only paid $30 for it. Now that I'm done with this game, trade it back in and then get back to Dark Souls and Rainbow Six Siege.

Tom Clancy's The Division is a revolutionary next-gen experience that brings the RPG into a modern military setting for the first time. In the wake of a devastating pandemic that sweeps through New York City, basic services fail one by one, and without access to food or water, the city quickly descends into chaos. As an agent of The Division, you'll specialize, modify, and level up your gear, weapons, and skills to take back New York on your own terms.

Pretty Cool So Far - 5 hours in
on March 10, 2016
Posted by: mattalert
Verified Purchase:Yes
Let me say. I hate Destiny at least whatever shell of a game that originally launched. Never played Taken King and never will give that series another try. The Division on the other hand is exactly what I was looking for when I bough Destiny.
Things that stand out to me so far in my first 5 hours.
-Graphics look really good to me and runs smooth
-Servers are running stable
-Great atmosphere and environment to run around in
-Attention to details is really impressive
-Character and weapons are fun to mod
-Loot is addictive
-Matching up with friends or randoms works really well
My negatives
-Menu screens can sometimes be hard to read
-Missions and enemy variants seem limited and will probably start to feel repetitive as i progress to the level cap
-Dark Zone (to me) is okay. Wish more of the Dark Zone aspects were in the standard game and not put off to one area. Would have been cool to have factions in game that you had to deal with.
I've barely scratched the surface and happy with the purchase. I do wonder though if I'll really pump a lot of hours into this after I hit Level 30. With so many other great games out and coming out this year, I'm not sure if the Division will make stick around. For the time being, it's really enjoyable and I can't wait to dive back in this weekend.

Great adventure game. Must buy on Xbox One
on December 1, 2015
Posted by: mattalert
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you played the previous game that rebooted the series and enjoyed it, you will really feel at home with this one. Great graphics, fun areas to explore, fun tomb challenges and steady framerate throughout. Another great release on the Xbox one and hope more people pick it up.
My only faults with this one is that the story is pretty dumb to me and I keep finding myself holding down the menu button to skip so I can get back to the action/exploring. Also, the gunplay is a little bland at times when you're forced to fight. Now that I've got the "gun achievements", its back to the BOW, all day, everyday.

Call of Duty: Black Ops III is the ultimate 3-games-in-1 experience. In Campaign mode, you must navigate the hot spots of a new Cold War to find your missing brothers. Players can play the campaign cooperatively or solo and are now always connected to the intelligence grid and their fellow operatives during battle. Multiplayer features a new momentum-based chained movement system, allowing players to fluidly move through the environment with finesse, using controlled thrust jumps, slides, and mantling. Black Ops III multiplayer also introduces the new Specialist character system, which allows players to master 9 characters' battle-hardened weapons and abilities through a challenge-based unlock progression system. No Treyarch title would be complete without its signature Zombies offering. "Shadows of Evil" has its own distinct storyline right out of the box, set in the fictional 1940s Morg City, where four particularly troubled individuals — the femme fatale, the magician, the detective, and the boxer — star in this film-noir inspired horror story.

Enjoying it so far. MP is better than I thought
on November 18, 2015
Posted by: mattalert
Verified Purchase:Yes
Multiplyer is a lot better than I expected. The only COD MP that I've enjoyed is COD Modern Warfare (hands down the best), World at War, Black Ops and now Black Ops 3.
Campaign seems okay so far. I played through the first two levels and it didn't impress, but it seems to now "open" up once you hit the third level. We'll, see, but I'm assuming the campaign will be fun enough like previous entries.
Zombies....not my thing at all.
Pros:
good maps
balanced guns and perks. ove that the lunging melee is gone.
game variety is plenty
Scorestreaks don't feel too overpowered or annoying as in previouis games to me
Cons:
P2P servers....still. Come on Activision and get some dedicated servers.
Dumb "bro" tough guy after game cut scenes
Bad in-game commentary from characters (thankfully, you can turn it off in Options).

Game is amazing and better than Forza 5
on September 16, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
Loving this game so far and a must buy if you're sitting on the fence. I loved Forza 4 and thought 5 was just okay. Then Horizon 2 came out and was my favorite racer in years. Forza 6 reclaims it's spot now as my favorite racer, especially when it's booming out my soundbar and subwoofer. Graphics, driving mechanics and frame rate are all top notch.

This game is massive and coming off Darks Souls II, Far Cry 4 and now Dragon Age, I'm starting to feel overwhelmed. Game looks amazing and the combat is a lot of fun. I enjoyed Witcher II, but this game is exceedes their previous efforts. Congrats to the developers
