Xbox Done Discussion - 2016's #1 Master Race Bottom Bitch

[Doombear]

Juniors pumping the Xbox One's nads over there was laughable at first, now it is just annoying. They are so obvious it is just offensive.

[archibaldcrane]

I typically wait a year or two after a system launches to pick it up so they can get the kinks worked out and there is a decent library available. I'm a Master Race/Sony fanboy, so I am just enjoying the atmosphere at this point.

This.

There's almost never a "top 10 system game" within the first year of launch anyway, and even if there is ill just pick it up used for $15 when i eventually buy it.


Wait

Shit

You mean Heavenly Sword and LAIR weren't top ten PS3 games?!

Which is an interesting discussion to have now that this gen is starting to wind down. 10 best for each console, hmm

[BadKarma]

Top 10 360 for me would be (not including cross plats)
1. Halo 3
2. Forza 2
3. Halo 4
4. Gears 3
5. Chromehounds
6. Crackdown
7. Dead or Alive 4
8. Viva Pinata
9. Mass Effect
10. Blue Dragon

Honorable Mention to Shadow Complex and Halo Reach

Heavenly Sword had such great potential, but they made it oh so shitty.
I'd rather not even mention LAIR, I forgot that game existed.

Didn't Unchartered come out after a year of the ps3 release?

As for top 10 ps3 exclusives I would say.

1: Metal Gear Solid 4
2: Unchartered 2
3:Unchartered 3
4: Unchartered 1
5: Heavy Rain
6: Demon Souls
7: Valkyria Chronicles
8: Infamous
9: Resistance 2
10: God of War 3

Have a feeling The Last of Us is going to be number 2 or 3 within a week though.

Only because it really bothers me for some reason lol, Uncharted*.
Pretty much agree with your list, I would swap in Ni No Kuni for Valkyria... and Infamous 2 was much better than 1.

[Null]

Yeah I notice I butchered the spelling but was to lazy to go back haha. I've made it about half way through Ni No Kuni and Infamous 2 before another game came out that I wanted to try and never went back. I really need to finish those because I enjoyed them.

[Null]

And fuck yeah Lost Odyssey was amazing. "Hanna's Departure really made the game for me.



Only real rpg this generation that truly gave me the feel of classic RPG storytelling.

fuck getting seeds on disc 4 is all I have to say about LO.

[Kalmado]

My disc 4 on LO always froze near the beginning I was so frustrated at that game at first, but after getting the hang of it and the story telling really started I couldn't put it down. It was a ton of fun. Really wish I was able to finish it.

Regarding Valkyria Chronicles and Ni No Kuni, I've read and understand these games are highly regarded. For myself personally I have a very very hard time with jrpg. I don't care for anime so the look of such games does not appeal to me. But, I'm curious to know just how much am I missing out on by not giving these titles a chance?

That guy is spot on even if (I believe) it's a bit of a put on. I'm a bit surprised to see he has an "angry Bioshock Infinite" video.

Valkyria I think is overall better than Ni No Kuni, but they are completely different genres so comparison is always gonna be more subjective. Either way, if you can ignore the anime look (which both games have so you're gonna have to), Valkyria has better game play and story. If you like turn based strategy games, Valkyria will be the one for you, since it makes the whole thing very interesting, satisfying and fun.

Ni No Kuni will definitely last you longer (like all Level 5 products) but the story is weird and childish -- which is not exactly bad -- just weird... and childish. But mostly weird, if you've seen a Ghibli movie before you should know what to expect. Game play is pretty drawn out though, but the battle system is a nice since it gives you more freedom despite feeling a little turn based (AI is 'tarded until you get certain commands though).

Valkyria is personally my choice, I would pick it over Ni No Kuni most times.

I've been personally partial to Xenoblade. I'd probably rank that highest of all the RPG's I've played this gen, possibly since the SNES.

That preview picture makes me want to avoid this video at all cost.

This. Most memorable piece of gaming from the xbox 360 for me... interestingly enough, it isn't really 'gaming' at all.

Oh man, what a nostalgia bomb. Hanna's Departure was amazing.
