    Ah, there's only one Perrin...

    (Unless of course you are playing against him, in which there's about 4 of him lagging all over the map)

    If you recall, there used to be 2 Perrins!

    I am now officially bored to death of MW3, I have pretty much every map down to a tee except Carbon and Outpost, which are both crapola anyway.

    Time to join the rest of humanity and get Blops 2 or Ghosts...Hmmm...I think I'll get the cheaper one :o

    Blops2 is miles better, but you might actually get ghosts cheaper!

    Good to see you've branched out into fashion mate...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,290 ✭✭✭✭everlast75


    So lads, the deal is back on €299 plus 2 games for the xbone and a game.

    Sorely tempted to get it and titanfall incl. but it means getting rid of my beloved 360.

    Anyone else in the same existential crisis?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,000 ✭✭✭Stone Deaf 4evr


    Is that 299 for trading in your 360?

    I held onto my 360, theres no sky player or rte player on the xbox one, and I still have games left to finish on the 360. I moved mine to another room though and tbh its still getting plenty of use.

    I don't think it's worth it just yet. Not enough games worth getting and not enough of my friends have it.

    ..plus it's a lot of money which I don't have :D

    Don't use either of those apps myself.

    Indeed, for trading in my 250gig and 2 games (including Ghosts)

    The only way I could rationalise it was with the trade-in, otherwise for me, it was too big an outlay

    Well I was thinking of getting Titanfall, which is €60 odd anyway, so with that being included, I'd be paying (with the trade in) €239?

    I'd have to trade in all my xbox 360 games, and heaven knows I'll be rolling in cash for the value I'll get for those :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,000 ✭✭✭Stone Deaf 4evr


    I dunno, I always feel like you get shafted whenever you trade in games. If you're in no rush, maybe hang on until titanfall comes out on the xbox 360. if its good, there'd be no point in upgrading just for that.

    If you could sell your 360 and games privately, you might even get a better deal on an xbox one, argos had it with 3 games included not so long ago.

    If you havent seen Act of Valour, its worth a look as well, acting is dirt but some great scenes showing special ops tactics.

    There's one scene in that movie that gives me the shivers. When they're in the water and one of the guys takes out an enemy with a silenced rifle and 2 guys appear from the water to catch his body and drag it down to prevent the splash from giving away their position.

    Ok, so since the last update when you play CVC domination, it changes sides half way through as per COD esports rules. Does anybody know if it's possible to make it do that on local play? I've looked and looked and can't find it in game setup.

    Ah yes you'll be a regular Solid Snake now



    Huh!? What was that noise?


  • Registered Users Posts: 906 ✭✭✭Randall Floyd


    The ambient noise on the maps is nuts, police sirens in the distance, vending machines making noise on Express, crowd noise near C Dom on Slums, its a whole new world!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,885 ✭✭✭SherlockWatson


    Jesus dare I say it I actually played a bit of ghosts TdM and it was enjoyable, the maniac killstreak is a good laugh I must say.

    Just picked up the xbox one.

    One question/one observation...

    Q - should I keep the xbox360? My heart says yes, nostalgia etc but my brain says I will rarely play any of the games and the vast majority of the CoDs are hacked :(

    Observation - f**k all people play Ghosts on it!!!!

    I'd say yes. Games with gold are getting better and it's handy to have, even if you only use it for Netflix or sky in another room
