Doesnt look like I would of expected. Bit like Bad Company 2 and Borderlands had a baby, and it was ugly.

Def Warrant5138d ago

meh the bad textures are hurting my eyes. They need to bring something spectacular to the table else it's gonna be like every other average multiplat game out there.

Bigpappy5138d ago

I can't wait to play this game. Ghost has been my favorite war game since the first Xbox. This on seems to use an improved cover system and would allow some stealth action. This and Reach releasing so close will shut down Xboxlive.
I don't know if the fanbase on PS3 will buy it. They have Socom. MW2 did sell well on that system though. The fanbase on 360 is very strong for Ghost games. That is for sure. I will be getting SC, so this might be my first beta ever.

Raf1k15138d ago

I don't think the textures look bad. It's just that they're much cleaner than I was expecting. Kind of gives it a slight sci-fi look.

HolyOrangeCows5138d ago

Let's see some gameplay videos.

badz1495138d ago

those are ugly! let me guess...another modified UE2 game? so, 576p confirmed? we'll see but no wonder they are using live action trailer!

SaberEdge5138d ago

The graphics look amazing. The only question is, how good will it run? Will there be screen tearing and slowdown or will it be polished and run well? The graphics themselves, though, look great.

The hell with Unreal engine. The only People who are good at it is Epic games. The rest just doesn't do it. What wrong with developers these days? Cant they understand that people now are so dam busy with graphic? First thing is posted here always is if the game looks good or not.

Fishy Fingers5138d ago

"Cant they understand that people now are so dam busy with graphic? First thing is posted here always is if the game looks good or not. "

Dude, screenshots kind of limit your options, you can hardly talk about gameplay. When you look at a picture, generally the first thing that comes to mind is whether you like it or not, or simply put, if it's good or not.

dgroundwater5138d ago

Sorry to tell you OP but this is not Unreal it's the YETI engine Ubi developed in house. This game runs at 60fps as well so stop whining.

Bluemaster775138d ago

Dont know what you guys are complaining about i think its looks great and i hope it'll be great as well

X_GAMER_X5138d ago

I know man. But it so sad. Games is about having fun. it always was.
Where are the good old days, street of rage, Mortal Kombat , Bubsy ; sonic , Michael Jackson game , The Old Mario , Resident Evil 1,2,3 Tomb raider 1,2,3. And so on.

There wasn't any internet to update the game, No patch and never broken. Now days you have to update the game 5 times after it released. The only title I remember not being updated is Halo.

I miss Those days. And I hate Dev for beign so lazy and buying the unreal for being cheap. unreal has met its limits. MOVE ON

X_GAMER_X5138d ago

God Info Bro. But I was talking in general also. the first thing people do post is if the game look good or not.

Have there been any reviews for this game?

Akira20201661d ago

Wait till you guys see all the Pay To Win micro-transactions that are in this game!! Yes, everything from buying weapons (NOT just skins), to attachments, to skill unlocks, to "time savers", etc....and this is just naming a few. Check out the videos online for Breakpoint's Store!

I was so jacked for this game, but now it's a pass just like this year's COD.
I'm predicting that these greedy companies will soon be the death of video games as we know it.

Revisiting Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Future Soldier

Gamerheadquarters; "Ghost Recon: Future Soldier was a shooter that felt tactical, slightly futuristic and was a blast when played cooperatively."

This is the only game in the franchise that I’ve played

skycaptin52224d ago

I heard the latest entry Wildlands was solid, the Advanced games were enjoyable and the free to play that no longer exists was alright from what I remember.

Zjet2224d ago

Future Soldier is damn good.

Advanced were also great.

Wildlands is really good.... It's like Open World SOCOM

PUBG2224d ago

Ghost Recon: Jungle Storm on PS2 and Ghost Recon: Island Thunder on Xbox were also awesome games.

2pacalypsenow2224d ago

You should really give Advanced Warfighter 1/2 a try.

TheColbertinator2224d ago

Ghost Recon has gone in all kinds of directions but I've enjoyed them all

icerob2224d ago

I have been waiting forever fór GRAW2.. please please please!!!

Elwenil2224d ago

You are a bit late, GRAW2 came out in 2007.

COZMIC2224d ago

I loved this game back in the day. Played multiplayer a lot with my friends. Only complaint I really had was how overpowered the auto turret was in multiplayer. Good times.

3 more arrivals hit Xbox One via Xbox Backwards Compatibility – Are they worth the return?

Carlos writes: "Once again, the Xbox Backwards Compatible library is expanding and with 2018 already proving to be a great year for the program, even in these early months, new titles can only be a good thing right? With that in mind, let’s jump into this week’s additions to see which Xbox 360 titles have hit Xbox One and whether or not they are worth spending time with once more."

Still waiting on Splinter Cell Blacklist

LucasRuinedChildhood2224d ago

Badass game. Way better than Conviction. Cool split screen co-op too.

mikeslemonade2224d ago

Are they worth the return? No.

BC not needed.

Grown Folks Talk2224d ago

The entire series please. Either a X enhanced Chaos Theory, or a remastered Chaos Theory in the Blacklist engine will do.

ULTp0ltergeist2224d ago

Wouldn't mind it at all especially with some enhancements.

chris2352224d ago

no. no backward compatible game is worth anything. i looked at playstation now the other day because finally it‘s available in switzerland. but the only thing that emerged by browsing the old unaltered titles were question marks. it is beyond me who uses this service or prefers to play something very dated instead of playing the actual versions.

starsi3602224d ago

Not everything has to be about how up to date the graphics are.

There are many games from the 360/PS3 era that stand head and shoulders above their current iterations from a gameplay perspective.

Halo 3 campaign versus Halo 5 campaign for example. Halo 3 for me is a very enjoyable game, I found 5 to be bland an uninspired (the multiplayer was good though)

Gaming_1st2224d ago

I thought Halo 3 campaign was not very good. It had rehashed audio, terrible AI, irritating story telling, continued backtracking, very short and the list could go on. Between Halo Ce, Halo 2 and Halo 3. Halo 3 is by far the worst.

timotim2224d ago

And that's just it....every BC title for Xbox is altered in some way. Better performance, smoother visuals, can use system features like screenshots and video clips and even others are completely enhanced to look damn near current gen.

PS Now is actually worse than owning the games because it downgrades the visuals slightly, while its performance is always on a delay and has lag due to it streaming nature. Nothing about PS Now enhances the titles.

In terms of playing old games...well, a good game is a good game. Geometry Wars will forever be good, Zuma will forever be good, Ninja Gaiden will forever be good...the fact that I can play them on my X is a major plus. Look at all the people excited for Sega's Genesis Collection for X1/PS4. If I already bought game in the past, why shouldn't I be able to play it whenever I want?

fathertime44642224d ago (Edited 2224d ago )

@Timothy
I agree with ya, but just want to correct one part of what you said
The game code isn't touched for bc to work on Xbox . It running or looking better on the x is all because of the emulator programming and better hardware.

Wasabi2224d ago

@fathertime

"The game code isn't touched for bc to work on Xbox . It running or looking better on the x is all because of the emulator programming and better hardware"

I agree with ya, but just want to correct part of what you said,

In the case of several Xbox One X backwards compatibility titles

Assassin's Creed
Crackdown
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
Fable Anniversary
Fallout 3
Forza Horizon
Gears of War 3
Halo 3
Mirror’s Edge
Skate 3
The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings

The games have actually been tweaked to run at 4K on the X and/or at a higher framerate. MS actually altered the games code and assets on a per game basis to mark them out as Xbox One X enhanced BC titles, these games feature enhancements not provided solely by the emulator.

fathertime44642223d ago

@fragnum
MS didn't touch the game code on those games. It's a 9 time sampling algorithm specially designed by MS that takes every frame multiplies it by 9. Look it up. It's why not all games are why not all of the games are 4k.

NeoGamer2322224d ago

Not everyone thinks that only new games are worth playing.

A great game is not only based on its graphics but the quality of story, gameplay, controls, music, multiplayer, and environmental setting. There are many great games from previous generations that I would rate higher than most games released this generation.

This generation has been high on beauty but lacklustre on innovation. Especially innovation for single player games.

Pickledpepper2224d ago

I've been having a blast on dead space on my X played through 3 times to get all achievements, now playing dead space 2 on my 3rd run still think them games hold up against newer titles. Love BC addition well worth having.

2224d ago
Cy2224d ago

If no backward compatible game is worth anything, why do the sales of pretty much every game that gets put on BC massively increase after they get added?

OffRoadKing2223d ago

Not pretty much every, a handful of select titles like GTA, COD and RDR. And its easy to "massively increase" sales when they go from virtually nothing to some people buying them.

As an Xbox gamer BC is fine. Been playing Just Cause 2 using my old 360 disc. Old games are history to real gamers. Also replayed RDR too. Never touch my PS now service to expensive & rubbish.

chaos-emeralds2224d ago

Old games are history to real gamers. Written by a casual. I've been gaming since the c64, and I love the old games still. The xbox 360 has some great classics worth revisiting.

NeoGamer2322224d ago

lol. I've been gaming since the Coleco Telstar, the Commodore 64 was my fourth gaming device!

Pickledpepper2224d ago

I've been gaming since atari 2600 woody and still have it now boxed, I still have every console I've ever owned and zx spectrum lol

PUBG2224d ago

Oh yeah? Well I've been gaming since the Texas Instruments TI-99.

Gaming_1st2224d ago

Some people have new games to worry about. Haven't played a old game in quite some time. Now maybe if i didn't have anything to play, i wouldn't mine checking out some old games i wasn't able to play.

LucasRuinedChildhood2224d ago

C'mon now. Stop with the clickbait. I don't have an XB1 myself but this is a really good feature and you don't need to ask "Are they worth the return" every time a few games get added. It's just clickbait. More games is never a problem unless they're atrocious. I've mentioned this point in the past. Unfortunately, these dumb articles are never going to stop.

Also, to PlayStation (my console of preference by far) fans who are doing this in the comments: stop attacking BC. It's one of the reasons the PS2 was such an incredible console. Every time a new console iteration comes out, we shouldn't lose access to all our old games if the old console dies. Consoles are digital platforms now. BC is awesome. End of. "Who wants to play old games?" If you said,"Who wants to watch old movies. I only watch new movies," you'd look like a moron.

Aenea2224d ago

It's a dedicated Xbox site doing this, not a generic gaming site, so rather doubtful they need to have clickbait headlines...

SlyBoogie19932224d ago (Edited 2224d ago )

There's no clickbait here in the slightest, it's an opinion based on whether the games being made available are still of a good quality today. With so many games coming out all the time i'm pretty sure no one has the time to play all of them, these articles look at how well they hold up, offers an opinion on whether it was a good game that was worth playing to begin with or as you put it if they are atrocious and more importantly if it's worth taking time away from the extensive library of Xbox One titles that continue to be added to head back to a game you've probably played before, whilst offering an opinion to those who haven't played them and may wish to now on Xbox One. You wouldn't call a review clickbait and that's an opinion so how is this?

waljaber2223d ago

i got sick from playing 10 years old games, i need new IP.

timotim2224d ago

Had my GR disc from years ago. Still have more of the campaign left to finish...thanks Microsoft...my X library is crazy.
