PS4 has been purchased. Should be playing Battlefront and Rocket League by next weekend. How do I play with some of you guys? Do I need to know your screen names?
And does anyone on here actually use the headset, or is that lame?

Re: The all inclusive video game thread
Just Cause has always been a "tweener" version of GTA in my mind. It's open and explodable, but less bloody/sexual. Plus the fantastical aspects (you are nearly invincible, you can basically fly) are total "I wish I could play my brother's games, but they are too hard."
My son got an Xbox one, JC3 and Battlefront for Christmas. He's loving it.

Had a 7 hour Battlefront session yesterday. Felt like an Asian teen in one of those Internet cafes.

It stacks pretty uneven for people who have played long enough to have purchased good equipment. After hours of play, my 10 year old now slaughters large masses of adult players courtesy of his high end magic blaster.@SkitchP wrote:I got Battlefront for Christmas. I am very very bad at it.
