I am loving this game so far. Beautiful art and great storytelling. The narrator really sounds good. I also love the gameplay. It's good old school arpg. Reminds me of baldur's gate dark alliance from back on the ps2. These guys did a great job.
Am I really the only one that doesn't think this game deserves a 10. The controls just feel terrible for me, and the character moves so dam slow! And the wanted system is bad too. There seems to be a witness to every crime I committ, even out in the woods. People shoot you just for looking at them and then if you defend yourself you're wanted for murder. It's good but not a 10 for me.
Thank you for not giving them a pass. Skyrim is one of my all time favorite games. But for years now it seems that they want to do everything but what they do best. The elder scrolls.
I preordered the gold edition and picked up the game Monday night. I am already hooked. This game is so good. It feels like an rpg now and I think the changes they made are excellent. Except not being able to use a shield. That's just dumb. Anyway I think they did a great job and I will be playing this for months. Thanks for the skills guide push square. Best one I've found.
I'm surprised at all the negative stuff I'm reading. I picked this game up without reading anything about it and I've been hooked. It's great fun with a buddy especially. I'm sorry but I completely disagree with the review. It's an 8 to me.
@andreoni79 I tried so hard to like that game. I just couldn't get into it. I like making my own character in RPG games. And I usually use a big axe and or a bow. In the witcher you just get his swords and the archery sucks. Just couldn't make myself like it.
@Boerewors Think on the bright side. People pay 20 bucks for a DVD and get 2 hours of entertainment. 4 if they watch it twice. We pay 60 and get how many hours? 100? 200? More? Games even EA games give us far more for our money than most other forms of entertainment. Cheer up dude.
I've been so excited about the Skyrim remaster that I have started playing Oblivion again. This way when I get the remaster I'll be coming straight from Oblivion. I trying to recapture that excitement from 2011.
I don't get why people would care about its size and looks. I'm a gamer. I want to play bad ass games. If someone came out with a 3 foot tall 3 foot wide ugly as hell gaming machine, that was more powerful and played the best games, I would buy that one.
@sonicmeerkat Yes. I have been loving Primal. The atmosphere is great and throwing spear's is great fun. Also riding sabertooth tigers shooting with the bow and stealth kills are fun too. It really is a fun game.
I've been thoroughly enjoying the stone age in Far Cry Primal. It's a very unique game even if it feels familiar. Where else can you sneek up on a cave man and thow a spear at him!
I am surprised at how many people dont like far cry. For me it is one of the series that I always look forward to. I have played all of them since the 1st on PC and still love them.
@AlexStinton Hey Alex. Great review. I was wondering about the armored guys. I saw mentioned in another review about some kind of heavily armored dudes that are hard to kill. Are they straight up bullet arrow sponges or is there some trick to killing them quickly. Like in other Far cry games there was a heavy take down skill. Thanks buddy.
@Teepo Great point. I absolutely loved Skyrim. Yet so many people on the internet hate on it. The witcher 3 seems to be very popular online but I just couldn't get into it.
Twisted metal 2. Tomb raider 1. And Destruction Derby 2 all come to mind from back in the day. But I think The Last of Us probably is my absolute favorite.
Why are people hating on Ubisoft in general. I Agree that Assassin's Creed sucks but far cry is great if you ask me. I've played and enjoyed every single far cry game to date.
I don't understand why this is controversial. Women are beautiful. Men like to look at them. They should be flattered. Or amused at least. Not pissed off. You know people are so quick to point out the over sexualization of women in games or media in general. Male characters are all made very handsome and have great body's too. When was the last time you saw a male character with love handle's and man boobs.
@SonyInfinity thank god I'm not the only one. I just don't get the witcher. It seems like I'm going crazy sometimes. So many people love it and as you said I'm not really sure why but I don't quite like it.
@Mega-Gazz You are not the only one who feels this way about the witcher 3. I agree with every complaint you brought up. I know lots of people love it but I just couldn't make myself get into it. To each his own I guess.
My buddy and I got this when it came out and have played every night since. I'm totally hooked. As others have said, it is not pay to win. I bought a premium tank and ended up learning there was much better free tanks in the same tier. Best online game I've played yet!
@NathanUC I totally agree about Inquisition, boring. I tried the witcher 2 and 3 for about 8 or ten hours each, couldn't get into it. Combat didn't seem fun. Not paced well. I just don't get it.
@Davros79 You are right I believe. Psn and Xbox live are absolutely comparable. They provide the same type of service. I love my ps4 but when I was on Xbox the network was more reliable I think. Saying they aren't comparable is like saying Verizon and Sprint or AT&T are not comparable.

Re: Review: Battlefield 1 (PS4)
The campaign is really awsome! "The best since bad company 2" was exactly my thought as well.

Re: FFS EA, Are You Making a Mass Effect Trilogy Remaster or Not?
@Mr_Alejo Yes you are so right. The fighting system was my main complaint with the Witcher 3. I liked Arkham and shadow of mordor for the fighting.

I'm loving Far Cry Primal. It's got great atmosphere. It is a little lonely though. I miss CO OP.
