Currently I'm playing Black. It's not too bad until you get to the lower level of the asylum, then it gets pretty hectic. Just finished Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Tides of War, which I thought was pretty good. Again this gets pretty hectic towards the end.

"Black"? I've searched but can't find this. Is it CoD Black Opps?

A few games that have caught my eye are CoD-Infinite Warfare, Ghost Recon, Titanfall 2, and Battlefield.
Anyone played these and what's your opinion of them?

Been Playing COD for few years, and been in a clan that won Clan Wars 2 yrs in a row  ..
I love killing people.. its fun. The game play is not bad, could be more even though.

IW is no real difference to the COD 3 before it which I play - its more like an DLC than a completely new game..  Just making more money as cheap and as quick as they can.

The big killer of online play is that some people spend 18 hours a day 7 days a week on it, and you just dont stand a chance.
Also the way it sets up teams for the game is not exactly 2 teams with equal level players. Your level doesnt say how good you are..

Theres also a new one coming which is supposed to be WW2 which looks good, but I hope its not just the same game play with new shirts on the soldiers.

Cheers bird, from the CoD series IW sounds like it would suit me, not having played any of the others and knowing their story lines.

What am I missing here, is Battlefield 1 a newer gamer than Battlefield 4?

Yeh that looks good, high body count but what's with no blood.

Has anyone upgraded their console by claiming it under warranty? I was at the gaming shop yesterday pricing up a bundle when the salesperson mentioned a new Xbox is coming out later this year. They went on to say that if I wanted to upgrade within the 12 month warranty period, they would give me a store credit for my console even if there is nothing wrong with it as they have no way of checking them. Sounds dodgy but if it's genuine it would be worth the $40 premium on JB's price.

Then you'll need a new TV to run it...

Yeh the young sheila described the new one as dedicated gaming computer built into a console. She was getting pretty excited talking about it.

That review listed it as one of the cons. Can't say I noticed it myself until it was mentioned.


Btw, I ended up getting the console package that comes with Halo Wars 2 and Prey, plus Lego movie 4K but I won't get to play it until Sunday.??

You're talking about the Xbox One, I thought you meant the Xbox, as in the original. LOL

Yeh Xbox one dude.

Yeah, Xbox One didn't interest me at all when it couldn't be modded and XBMC installed. I mainly wanted something that would play my digital music. I wouldn't have had a PS3 either, except it was part of the deal when I bought my Sony TV, and I couldn't get a discount for not taking it. Pretty happy that my old Xboxs are being used again, now that I have a NAS device, and the new version of XBMC installed. It's a pity that the PS3 couldn't be used in a similar way, as I believe the DAC and audio out on the PS3 might be better than the Xbox.

Yeh don't know anything about modding them. Mine will only be used for games, I've got Oppo's flagship DVD player for audio stuff.
