Re: Official Video Games Thread VIII: Titans are destined to fall
Forza Horizon 2
This time it's a eurotrip. You start in Italy and France as they take you thru getting your wristband and learning features.
Same airplane vs car race fairly early on as well.
Menus kind of feel like Windows 8 tiles, much like the XB1 interface.
Forza Hub is separate app you can install to maintain all your info over all Forza games and the rewards system.
New is the cross country races where you drive thru fields and other terrain. Anything goes as long as you pass thru the checkpoints.
Game looks great visually of course.
No AI racers. It's all driveatars. Rivals return as well.
Level and skill system using separate xp to level each up. Also unlocks permanently active perks.
Xp and discount billboards to smash also return.
Bucket list feature is fun. Get in a car that you find parked. Act on whatever challenge it offers. First one was to drive a Koenigsegg like you stole it. Meaning get to the goal before the timer expires.Last edited by JF_Gophers; 10-01-2014, 06:33 AM.PSNetwork / XBOX GamerTag: xJeris

Re: Official Video Games Thread VIII: Titans are destined to fall
I had zero interest in the new LOTR game, but it apparently has a cool death mechanic.
If an enemy Orc kills you it gets promoted and separate from what you're doing can kill it's competing Orcs to gain power.
You may meet that orc several times over your campaign as he becomes a sort of rival.
So no two players will have the same experience. Kind of cool.

PS Vita update will allow you to use custom icons now instead of just a background image. PS4 still has to wait!Last edited by JF_Gophers; 10-02-2014, 06:32 AM.PSNetwork / XBOX GamerTag: xJeris

Re: Official Video Games Thread VIII: Titans are destined to fall
Welp, I got myself a PS4 finally. Played Infamous: Second Son last night, very fun game but I've been a big fan of Infamous so YMMV. It's especially fun having lived in the Seattle area before. Gonna try Destiny soon here.U-A-A!!!Go!Go!GreenandGold!

Re: Official Video Games Thread VIII: Titans are destined to fall
In Tapped Out, they added more land to purchase, so I did because I was running low on land and it only cost around $10MM to get it all."The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command." George Orwell, 1984
