It looks cool...some of the tedious things in the past ones gets annoying. This one looked mayb a lil different? Story line looked good.

It's still Far Cry... I mean there's still outposts, but you don't have towers to climb anymore. There are some new and innovative changes, however my biggest peeve is they seem to be following the GTA "grind or use real money to buy in-game money" method. And if you prefer stealth that seems real non-existent, even with silencers these crackheads can still hear a shot from the woods at a quarter mile away. But overall it's fun.

My new favorite thing about the game is going fishing, it's such a relaxing mode that takes your mind off it being a FPS. They put a lot of work into it, you can switch up spots and try to catch harder fish which requires a little more skill. Also I'd be remiss if I didn't mention game still needs some work, it gets somewhat glitchy at times. Nothing game breaking so far though.

thanks, actually picked up ps4 recently...the main reason was Red Dead 2 coming out in Oct, my all time favorite game. Had to get ready. Ive played the past Far Cry on older system and those looked great.

I actually haven't bought any games yet...but battlefront2 is ordered now and is coming...


game nerds...any thoughts on best games for PS4? Looking for a solid strategy game, an open world game (I think Horizon was mentioned above and Far Cry will get sometime later)...suggestions? Also sports games...the obvious Madden is good?

Cheers to that, RDR2 will probably be the next game I buy this year. As for FC5 I'd say it's def. better than 4 but not as good as 3, 3 being the best in the series. I didn't play Primal either so no idea on that.

Horizon Zero Dawn... just get it, I can’t recommend it enough

I’d also recommend Titanfall 2, Battlefield 1, and GTA V

Agreed on Horizon Zero Dawn. Stunning graphics and game play system (and story). I keep hearing it's a poor mans Witcher 3, so I got to get on that wagon at some point when I get free time.

Playing Fortnite on the side but keep getting owned by 11 year olds, so that sucks.

Fortnite story of my life. If you can't build quick you are a sitting duck.

Far cry 3 is one of my all time fav...4 was tedious but ok...I thought the shangri-la tasks were the best part...pretty challenging in FC4. Never played primal.

And Matty I’ve heard titanfall 2 was worth gettin.

I’ve actually never played online against others...I might try that when I get a chance.

Good luck playing online. My patience wore thin on GTA, too many hackers fucking everything up and when they aren't you will tire quickly of GTA's "grind or spend real money for fake in-game money" system. It had potential but R* went full EA mode with that one.

what about a first person shooter? Ive never really liked or played GTA.

But say like the titanfall or battlefront2 and this thing I keep hearing about fortnight? Is this fun at all?...is it basically like a survivor game or is it teams?

[MTK]

Shooters are worth playing online if only because multiplayer is usually more fun than the single player campaigns... be prepared to get owned for a while though.

Titanfall 2 is actually fun online even for beginners as there are bots in the game in some modes so you’re not just playing against other people

what about downloading a game or buying the disk? one better? Used disks just look cheaper.
