I know this is not the proper thread for it, but if anyone has a spare/useless code for the COD: IW pre-order (namely Terminal + Zombies In Spaceland), hit me up, I actually need it for a review (Acti didn't provide us a code for that, just the base games). Can hit back with goodies.

Having played some of the "new" things (sales and releases), here's my personal impressions of some things in case you are wondering they are worth it. Need For Speed Rivals - Obviously, this is only a relevant sale if you're not planning to get EA Access. It's a fun arcadey racer by the guys...

I need another recommendation. CS: GO on X360: yay or nay? I'm aware the game has not been updated for long on console compared to the PC which has skins, new maps and tons of new stuff, but is the game solid enough on the 360? And, even more importantly, are the servers dead or is there a...

For the Halo 5 players out there. The price difference between the regular version and the digital deluxe version in this sale is fairly small, about 5.50 Euros here in Europe. There's 14 Premium REQ Packs included to justify the price difference (plus The Fall Of Reach series which I'm not too...

While I'm not blown away by the sales, there definitely is stuff that us Europeans are getting at a lower than usual price. Fallout 4 at 50% is better than the physical deals around here, same goes for other Battleborn and others too. While not just part of the summer sale, I might grab Halo 5...

Don't forget Copa America, which due to me being in Europe is a pain in the ass to watch because of time zones. But there were already some really enjoyable matches so far, namely USA-Colombia and Mexico-Uruguay. Great times.

For those considering Anima: Gate Of Memories - it's a very creative and artistically impressive (though the engine itself is dated) action game a là Devil May Cry. The combo system isn't as deep, but the battles are fun, and being able to switch between two characters with their separate...

Talking about kids and games, I think it's wrong to downplay them or make them think they're playing when their controller is unplugged. When Doom 2 came out, I was 4. My parents were playing it and so did I. That gave me the basics for gaming, as beating Doom 2 on the higher difficulties too...

It is practically unplayable, at least it was on launch. The framerate DIES when you start getting a bigger ship and crew, thus you are practically forced to play solo or with a very limited team. Add to that that the game gets repetitive fast and I would not recommend it at all. It's an easy...

I'll never understand the supposed superiority BF's developers and fans boast. BF3 was incredibly limited on consoles and PC alike, BF4 had a horrible launch and was nearly unplayable for months (it is amazing now), and Hardline was quite the disappointment. Now DICE shows an in-engine video...

I'd take it.

You indeed missed the point of what I'm saying. Giving 1s, 2s, or 3s basically means the game is broken, not fun, absolutely unimaginative and disappointing in just about any way. Big Rigs, Ride To Hell, that kind of material. Where the game's basic functions don't work, where there's basically...

If graphics and sound go for realism, that is by all means objective. The amount of content, the general functionality and amount of glitches or netcode issues are also rather objective. I don't think that a game that is done incredibly well can earn an insanely low rating just because I am...

Reviews are subjective but objective as well. Even if you hate a genre (why the hell are you reviewing such a game to begin with?), there are objective matters you just can not overlook. How it looks, how it sounds, whether the gameplay is functional, if the difficulty is balanced, if the story...

A shame, because I did play season 2 between a friend's console and my own game (just without the paid content of it). I already had Season 1 from an older sale prior to GWG and I just got a review code for Season 3 Ultra. I am familiar with S2 so it's not an issue of knowledge, but as it stands...
