Hello you beautiful people and welcome :)
This week, I started a new series where I find the best tweets and combine them into a list for your viewing pleasure.
To be featured in the next video, @s_louw in the tweet or the comments and I will see it that way and include you.
Hello, all you beautiful people. Here is my latest play through for an amazing game called Quantum Break.
I haven't enjoyed a game this much in a while. It is really awesome.
It took me so long to play this game because I didn't have the right console, but now I do.
A side note, the xbox game recorder isn't allowing me to record for long enough. It's annoying and I'm trying to find another solution. If you have a suggestion, please let me know.
So I decided before I make up my mind about buying Battlefield 1, I would play the beta. A lot of games that have been coming out have been a real disappointment to gamers in general. (looking at you Battlefront & No Man's Sky)
I waited until after midnight for our internet cap to not be disturbed by a massive 6 gig download. I then decided the next night I was going to dedicate to playing the game and giving it a real workout before making up my mind.
The attempt was disastrous. Like when Sim City came out a few years ago, the servers couldn't connect and would crash frequently; and like with Sim City you need to play this game online. Since this was a beta, I didn't mind too much, I know they are doing a public beta for this reason. Eventually, I managed to get into a game. First impression was that it looked really pretty. The graphics on my Xbox One was insane.
Then I tried to move.. no luck.
Then I tried to shoot.. no luck.
Then I tried to look around.. no luck.
I exited the game and went into two more games with the same problem. I would be able to move for a second and then nothing.
So it seems that the core functionality of the game was broken. After downloading the huge file and waiting all day to play it - this was not a good experience. It reminded me of the months I struggled with Sim City and how I didn't want to go through that again.
In today's age of gaming - I don't think this was good enough. It completely put me off buying the game when it comes out. I may wait for a few months and perhaps even for a 50% off sale before I even look at it.
EA is quickly losing a customer.
To watch what I am talking about, please check out this video I recorded of the experience.
On a positive note, I started playing Quantum Break because I finally got a Xbox One and I must say it is one of my favourite games already and I've only gotten past act one. I'll post that video soon.
