Was messing around with ranked Smite for awhile, but now want to get into some sort of console MMO. Hearing some good things about Destiny, maybe I'll give it a shot.

I'll merge the 2K/NBA Live thread in here. Once it gets closer to the release date for 2K, there will probably be a separate thread (at least in the beginning, after which I'll merge it here as well).

I have an xBox one and I'm playing Injustice 2 (which I suck at) and Battlefront (which I also suck at). I bought The Force Unleashed 1 and 2 because I LOVED those games when they first came out and beat them rather easily. We need a new Star Wars game involving Jedi and not just Battlefield (although, BF2 looks AMAZING).

Are here some hardcore PoE players? I'am not a big fan, but will probably try new expansion. Coming out tomorrow, right? Big day.

I play on and off, kind of annoyed because I'm starting to realize that 2 of my 3 main characters are hitting their ceilings (can't beat merciless labs) but I still love the game. Gotta check back in for the new content maybe we'll get a free respec.

You probably didn't have a Clan to raid with and smacked hard in crucible.

I don't play these types of games.

I play battlefield 1 and skill based games.

You just said battlefield and skill in the same sentence...

Yes, I did.

PS4. MSFT tends to fuq things up. Plus, your PS4 can also double as an entertainment hub.

Depends. Gears of War is a Xbox exclusive.
God of War is a PS exclusive.

Before getting sick, I used to do this all the time.

If he's not already, let him use NewEgg. He'll save a TON! It's a shame he didn't start a month or two earlier to take advantage of holiday sales. :lol:

Yep. Every platform has their exclusives. Me personally, I'd still go PS4.

That's what he uses. He's been working on it forever. He's really, really busy though so I leave him alone about it, but he said I will be able to use it before the new year.

Both are rather cheap now.

Also, what's wrong with you Mags?

I'm kinda surprised the NBA2K online season mode hasn't led to any leagues on this board...seems like a no-brainer and we've had BAT sims and custom rosters made for it.

My other gaming tastes...anything I can grind through in 15 to 30 minute clips since I don't usually sit much longer than that any more. I just grab RPG's mainly and spend hella long playing them in small chunks. Bloodborne, Dark Souls, Disgaea and some others. I like retro ish too, Rogue Legacy and Enter the Gungeon are heat. Oh and also I rock Overwatch once in a blue because my nephews love it.

It took me about 8-10 hours of uninterrupted time to build mine. And that was without liquid cooling (adds some additional time). He'll disappear for one day and get it done.
