Gamestop has started giving more money for trade in games over the last month, after not giving you shit for years. Got $25 for Need For Speed Rivals, which is now free on EA Access.

I enjoyed my first day of Destiny.

Good deal. I caved and bought it last night. Should arrive tomorrow. Wife is out of town this weekend so I'm going to get some good gaming in while she is away.

Check with Best Buy. They gave me $10 more than Gamestop offered the last time I traded a game in.

Do they give you cash or a Best Buy gift card?

I was just trading it towards Diablo 3 so I didn't inquire about cash.

I tried to solo one. It killed me a bunch then despawned.

When I have the choice, I've been switching the difficulty to hard.

nice.

i tried the PvP the other night and now realize why i got my ass handed to me. these guys all have better weapons and such. i might not go back to PvP until i complete the game and roam around a bunch.

What are your thoughts on the game? The reviews I read said thet the game didn't live up to the hype. That essentially it's just another FPS that isn't breaking any new ground

Nothing lives up to the hype anymore.

I played the beta for a couple of hours and nothing struck me as mind-blowing. I was playing on a PS3, and it was an earlier build, so that might have something to do with it. But I'm also not really a social gamer, and the single-player stuff just didn't tickle my fancy. But still, when the price goes down, I may give it a shot.

at the time, I was 4/5 and they were 7/8

[red calzolaio]

well, it's true that nothing ever lives up to the hype. this is not just another FPS. i think of Call of Duty or even Battlefield as being just another FPS no matter how many perks or destructible environments there are.

anyway, how much different can a game be? i just don't see anything ever being groundbreaking beyond maybe the story.

[Monkey_Driven]

A game doesn't have to be groundbreaking to be good. I'll post my impressions of the game sometime this weekend after I get in a few hours. I had almost no interest in the game prior to the beta but I had a great time.
