Uncharted Lost Legacy is stunning on the Pro.
Update: I am now terrible at UC4's multiplayer. Everyone got really good.

Picked up the Division. I couldn't pass up the deal on the PSN store. The game and the season pass with all the expansions for $35? Yeah taking that.
Anyway the multiplayer is awesome. Very enjoyable.

The ex-Valve lead writer has posted a summary of what would've been Half-Life Episode 3 on his website. Community seems to think that's the final nail in the coffin. Quite sad - Half Life was a pretty important cultural touchstone of my youth, it's a pity I never got to see the conclusion realised.

Half Life 2 is a classic.

I still need to play it, just waiting for a price drop. Are you currently playing it or did you finish already?tragabigzanda wrote:I think you Half Life fans would really dig Prey.

Re: The all inclusive video game thread
I just played the beta. It was cool enough, I could see myself getting into it someday when I have the free time. But then I never loved Half-Life like everyone else did. And FYI, it's on sale on the PSN store for $30 right now; you can still download the free trial I think, too.Orpheus wrote:I still need to play it, just waiting for a price drop.

I'm not keen on posting mine publicly, however I may be sending some requests shortly to those on the 1st post.tragabigzanda wrote:Sarge and MD, I'm down for some teamwork this weekend if you guys are up for it.tragabigzanda wrote:Oh yeah Sarge, what's your PSN handle?

My handle isn't quite the same as my name here, however it's a little similar, so you'll probably know it's me.

The story mode add on to Madden is actually kind of cool.

Re: The all inclusive video game thread
I spent the weekend playing Just Cause 3 - what a ridiculously fun game. I played some of JC2 but didn't spend a lot of time with it so this is my first real foray into the series.
I'm having an absolute blast so far just free roaming and blowing shit up. My only gripe is that the load times are brutal and i've experienced a handful of pretty severe framerate drops during intense moments. The world also gets a little same feeling after a while, though i haven't gotten beyond the first couple of islands and i can see a bunch more on my map so there might be some different terrain up there.

I know I just said it earlier, but god damn Uncharted Lost Legacy looks spectacular on the Pro in 4k with HDR.
Anyone here play Destiny and and are excited for Destiny 2?
