Topic: The everything Xbox thread

@Anti-Matter We get it. There is no need to repeat the same s*** over and over again. It will not change a thing ...

@Anti-Matter Give up already. No need to sh*t on the only Xbox thread. Please.

@Anti-Matter I 100% think the system is not for you and agree with everyone.
Maybe you should create another thread about upcoming cute and girly games for you to discuss.

@Zuljaras who is Zuljaras

@BlueOcean what beat'em up game did you make

I look forward to the new Xbox, my God does it look nice and I suppose they'll release the new battletoads game on it. Last Xbox I bought a lot of games for was the very first Xbox , the last two Xboxes ( 360 and one ) have not been as good as it. This new Xbox is going to be something big .i think😁

What?

Who is Ninfan? I’m clearly not a television.

@Zuljaras, I'm guessing he thinks your username is a character from a video game, and wants to know who it is.

@RR529 Did not think of that!

@Ninfan I made that name 14 years ago when I started playing World of Warcraft. Now it is my permanent nickname in everything

I tried WoW for a bit but wasn’t able to get into it as much as my friends. I did like the RTS Warcraft games a lot.

Happy to see Reforged has got such a warm reception. Blizzard looks like it’s going to have another banner year 🤥

@NotTelevision I got refunded by Blizzard! I pre-ordered Reforged on 18 August last year. I was hopeless to get a refund but I told them in the ticket that I will continue to request refunds until they give me my 40 Euros back!

@Zuljaras That’s good. Hope those who are disappointed are able to do the same.

@NotTelevision Unfortunately no Most people are not refunded because they played like 2-3 hours. I only played during the beta and did not even opened after release.

@Zuljaras Oh boy. I guess as long as the game technically works, there is nothing players can do from a legal standpoint. The narrative the last couple of years is that Activision/Blizzard doesn’t put effort into anything that can’t be turned into a live service e-sport. This debacle definitely reinforces that claim.

@NotTelevision Actually you can. Your bank can get your money back if you contact them but then Blizzard will ban your entire account

Also people now are getting banned in the forums because they advice people how to get refund. For example Live Chat is almost guaranteed refund then the online ticket system.

@Zuljaras Craziness. At least your story has a somewhat happy ending with the refund.

Finally decided to give the Crackdown 3 campaign a real try.

It's actually not that bad at all. I like the graphical style, I really like the world design, I like the basic gameplay mechanics, although it would've been far better if they'd gone with an Uncharted style cover shooter approach.

The only really big issue with it so far is the story is super generic garbage that they spent about 1 day writing.

This could've very easily been an awesome game though, if they'd just made a few adjustments.

I paid no attention whatsoever to the story. It's a game for the gameplay, and I enjoyed it for that.

The mayhem part isn't even that fun though. That's the other problem. The part that's fun is exploring the city, the platforming challenges, and shooting stuff.

Feels like they went with the complete wrong emphasis in the gameplay department, and it could've been a much better game as cover shooter/platformer/stealth/puzzle approach rather than the very arcadey button masher.
