Is battlefront worth buying? Even if you never seen Star Wars?

I like it for the Star Wars nostalgia of it. Visuals are great, but there are some things that are limited.

I finally put in a couple of hours into the game this past weekend and I can see why so many people aren't happy with the game. But for me, I like it for what it offers and how the game is set in the Star Wars universe.

And I agree, with what was said a couple posts earlier, I'd wait to buy the game when all the DLC are added to the game.

How mad is everyone going to be when the game of the year is a PC port?

lol it would be hilarious, but doubtful. Remember last year at the PS experience when they revealed this port? SE received so much backlash when it was announced that it was a port and not a HD remake lol

I was kidding, but honestly, it will get the most play time from me of any other game released this year. 

 

[Fozz]

So does this mean FF7 is releasing this week?!

 

[Bad Religion]

Not necessarily. Some games have their trophy lists appear and still aren't out months later.

However, usually it's a sign that it is between 1-3 weeks away.

copped Battlefront this weekend... Its a good game just lacking a bit of modes i guess..  only got a couple hours in so far but its alright, should've waited for it to go on sale... has a lot of future promise though... if DICE uses this engine on BF5 its gonna be crazy....

Nice, I'll be keeping an eye out for it.

Anniversary collection controller for $49 Amazon product ASIN B00ZSDTIGG

Repped. I've been waiting for this one to go on sale.

Bought FFVII when I had a ps3 but I couldn't get used to the graphics. Gonna give it another go around when this comes out.

 

[Bad Religion]

Reminder that the Flash Sale ends in about 1.5 hours.

I ended up grabbing Wolfenstein: The Old Blood, Mad Max, and Tony Hawk Pro Skater 5 for 89.99 because I need another 3 games to be irritated about not playing in 4 months. 

Make sure you use the 10% coupon as well. Works on top of the sale pricing.

Sony Unlocks PS4's Seventh CPU Core, Data Suggests

Sony is giving developers further access to the PlayStation 4's CPU resources, potentially paving the way for enhanced performance in future games, if the latest documentation from a middleware company is to be believed.

Buried within the most recent update details for the audio tool FMOD, which was released mid-November, a note reads: "PS4--Added FMOD_THREAD_CORE6 to allow access to the newly unlocked 7th core."

The data, which was unearthed on the Beyond3D developer forum, has become the subject of speculation across numerous online game communities such as NeoGAF.

Unless it was written in error, FMOD's note suggests that Sony has made a crucial back-end change to the PS4 system software that, in theory, allows the platform's games to draw from further processor resources.

The PS4 is assembled with an eight-core AMD Jaguar, clocked at 1.6GHz. Two of those cores are reserved for system operations, along with about 3.5GB of its memory. In January, Microsoft began to allow developers to use the Xbox One's seventh CPU core, at least partially, which is believed to be one explanation for the enhanced performance of games released in 2015 compared to the year prior.

Differences between PS4 and Xbox One resolution and frame-rates have been less pronounced in 2015, with often no meaningful difference between both systems, as some examples below demonstrate:

Battlefield Hardline - PS4 900p, Xbox One 720p
Star Wars Battlefront - PS4 900p, Xbox One 720p
Batman Arkham Knight - PS4 1080p, Xbox One 900p
Metal Gear Solid 5 - PS4 1080p, Xbox One 900p
Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 - PS4 1080p, Xbox One 1080p-900p (dynamic)
Project CARS - PS4 1080p, Xbox One 900p
Evolve - PS4 1080p, Xbox One 900p
Whether the enhanced CPU access on PS4 could result in a widening of that gap is a matter for debate.

Nevermind, seems like it is a PS3 port of the 360 release that drops tomorrow.

I was tempted to get THPS5 and Mad Max but couldn't justify the prices I couldn't pass up The Old Blood. I also got AC Syndicate and The Witcher 3.

 

[iheartboost]

Any Cyber Monday deals for PS Plus sub? Mine is about to run out.

 

[Ricky D]

San Andreas is still the best GTA imo. It has a platinum trophy = instant cop.

 

[suberzat1]

It was alright

It was alright

I never played Vice City but I think SA is better than GTA 4 and 5.

 

[iYen]

Vice city was my most memorable gta experience. The setting and the 80s music put it over the top for me.

 

[suberzat1]

San An was good just like how modern V was

Vice city was dope but i liked the whole thing with how you could make your guy buff or super fat
