From a CoD player perspective: yes. Compared to CoD, BF has a better game engine, plus vehicles.
From a Battlefield player perspective: maybe. This game is not a big step ahead in the saga, nor is heavily differentiated by the previous games.
Basically Hardline is a Cops and Robbers game on steroids: it could have been far more realistic, with normal guns and vehicles, but then it would have just been a Payday game. Then they probably decided to keep using weapons such as rocket launchers and vehicles such ad assault helicopters.

Personally I'm not that hyped for BFH. Well, since BF4's launch is terrible, the community lost faith in EA/DICE. If you play CoD and is not a "cod kid" then you could go for it, as BF is generally more vehicle intensive and the guns feel like real guns which cod players might find it hard to adapt to.

Well EA & Origin were offering BF 3 download for free which I took up , started playing campaign and enjoyed it.
I might go for Hardline, but not 100% sure on that one. But thanks very much

i wanted to feel that way, but was disappointed by the console version. graphics not that great, too many glitches. Horrible enemy AI in single player
i'm personally loving bf3.
i'm waiting to see what people say about mw3. i felt really burned after all the glitching and hacking in mw2 and with infinity ward gone i'm still not quite sure if that's a good or bad thing.

agreed. they say MW3 is supposed to be much more balanced than mw2. If its a mix between the graphics of mw2 and gameplay of black ops, ill be in heaven.
i only play hardcore modes though, not that run and gun **** of regular modes. alot more skill involved with hardcore
i was honestly set on bf3. Until i realized that all of the videos were from the pc version and not the console version. ive read hundreds of reviews on it, many from bf2 players, and ive decided to get mw3 instead
I can't decide between mw3 and battlefield
Battlefield is fun, but I've always been more of a CoD fan. I got BF3 and I will be getting MW3 tomorrow. Then, Skyrim on Friday. Sucks because I'll be at work all night while Skyrim waits on my doorstep.
Had the game for the past 4 days. Haven't played much. F U work. Mw3 is a improvement. Much better game. Bf3 is sluggish, I have bf3 btw

I played through some of the story already with a buddy of mine that got an early copy and in my opinion it is and improvement over mw2 and black ops and its much better than bf3 (which I own)

Point of minecraft?

I hear alot about this game/thing... Whats the point of it? It looks like something that you building insanely pixelated. aated cities, lands etc... Just dont get it. There has to be more. What am I missing? I read there were like 200 million copies sold. And few million on phones
Sent from my Xoom using Tapatalk
Just try to play and you'll understand...
It's super addictive.
It's just basically making stuff and downloading other peoples levels they made that you have to do and like the other answer you got it is rather addictive!
Well, you're also missing stuff like crafting and survival. Depends on what difficulty you choose. Try for yourself.
I was wondering the same thing, because a bunch of guys I know love it. I tried it myself and I was bored within about 10 minutes. It's either you build something which isn't very impressive, or you sacrifice endless hours to make something awesome. But at the end of the day you don't really get anything for doing it... So I see no point either

Pretty sweet achievement.. still has insane bugs..
If you're a call of duty type, then this game ain't for you.
Minecraft is more or less a creativity tool. If you aren't creative, then it's not for you.

Right now it's the pseudo equivalent of creative mode only. In creative mode, there are no monsters, infinite resources, and your character can't die.
Survival mode is really what brings out the flavor in minecraft, if for no better reason than you have to "earn" what you build by harvesting everything and *not* dying.
Initially the dev team (Mojang) wanted the pocket edition to be like creative mode only. Now apparantly they're giving it some survival mode teeth, as that's what the community has been clamoring for.
Here's to hoping there wont be too many corners cut. If so, I may have to hunker down and actually buy this one.
There is a free demo version for anyone who's curious. The demo version doesn't let you save your worlds, so whatever you build is gone when you close thr game.

i simply find it grotesque, i can't fathom the ugliness of such game
it's like worse than going back to the computers from the 70s, just with color instead of monochrome
i still remember Atari games that looked exactly just like that

Blood and Glory

I'm hoping I don't get **** for this, but since it's about an app it should be fine.
Anyways, I tried out Blood and Glory today and it's pretty damn awesome. For those who haven't heard of it, it's pretty much like Infinity Blade on iOS. Graphics aren't as good, but they're still pretty impressive.
For those who HAVE heard of it, what are your thoughts on it?
I've played it and many similar but I'd rather just play mw2 on my xbox or any other game on it. I don't game too much on my phone but racing games have entertained me most on it. I could see how people would like it though.

Yeah. I wish they had more racing games, Hot Pursuit is the only decent one aside from the messed up car sounds.
Real Racing 2 was good but buggy compared to the iOS version. I had my hopes up for it but oh well.
Just uninstalled it last nite.......got sick of the stupid ad notifications that show up in the status bar every morning or whenever u run the game! Too annoying.
It is good game, but I preffer to buy gam than to pay later for this in-app ****. You can play for free for a while but then I discovered I will have to spend lots of money to finish this game (20$ or more...)
i play till end..this is a good game
and all free
I will give a try
i play zenonia4 now and im very pleasure with this , but i will give a try
I like it. I play it every now and then.

You're a little late on the MGS4
If you enjoyed the stealth aspect of MGS4 you'll probably like Deus Ex Human Revolution.
If you like RPGs Fallout:New Vegas Game Of the Year came out recently and it includes all the DLC plus the base game for less than the cost of the DLC.
Completed it again on Extreme for kicks

Ninja Gaiden Sigma. It's a greatest hit now so it should only be $20 brand new.
God of War III. Definitely worth at least one playthrough.
One of the new versions of Street Fighter.
Dead Space 1&2
Uncharted, all of them. They're the only games that really push your console to its boundaries, and show what it can do. Of course they are good games otherwise too.
If you like racing games, then I recommend Gran Turismo 5, it's a great driving simulator with a LOT of stuff. Car info and prices are quite realistic, and so is the driving itself.
Also, if you care for arcade style race more, the check out Need for Speed Shift 1 and 2. They're also pretty good, just different.

Same here, Uncharted No question. I saw the preview for Uncharted 3, then looked up 2, then grabbed 2, After I read the reviews, I picked up the first one. Played all 3 in order. OMG I would of gotten a PS3 just for that series. There is nothing like it on the 360 (and I am a much bigger 360 fan than PS3)
Check out the preview for "The last of us", from the same makers as Uncharted, but, this is a game that I will have on release day, it looks that good...
If you like different cop type of games, Heavy Rain is a big one for the system and got great reviews.
You could always do the shooter games, Black Ops, MW3, great games, no question but, they are cross platform. I also enjoyed Max Payne 3 (good story if you like Max Payne, I did play the 360 version tho)
Two ther epic games are inFamous & inFamous 2. That is one of THE best games ever made for a console. ;-) Why have all the best characters gotta die? !

I'm a big fan of Battlefield 3(BF in general) too. PC players say it's not a game for consoles, but I disagree. Sure it's better on PC(64P and HC graphics), but you can't say it's not good for PS3. Love that game. Way better than CoD IMO. Don't like playing with 8yr old kids!

Why? They've only released two extensions and there are still three to come(total of 5). Next Battlefield will be released in min. year.

Both BioShock games are really good, the first one has an AMAZING story and the second one lets you dual wield so the gameplay is better. The Portal Games are really good too if you like puzzles, the first one is on The Orange Box which is a great value! It has the Half Life games on it, they are sweet games if you like oldschool style FPS. For upcoming games check out Watch Dogs, Dishonored, and BioShock Infinite.
Battlefield 3 was great until all the worthless updates. CQ is every COD lovers wet dream, people are whoring aim assist, and a number of tweaks have just made the game utterly ridiculous. I will not be buying anymore battle sims in the near future it seems. The game is not anywhere near as fun as it used to be.

I don't understand... The tweaking and updates are only released to balance the game. Practically, there are no over powered weapons due to the active updating. CoD is only updated when there is really really something wrong, a huge bug or something. DICE updates the game to make it fun for every one.

Do you exploit glitches in video games?

Funny i'm asking this in XDA, but I had this argument with a couple of friends and well, they think that exploiting minor glitches in video games is wrong, though I think its nice to have a small boost sometimes!

It depends. If you're using glitches to do stuff you can't normally do when offline then that's fun. If you're doing it online then you're a loser who needs a life. The only people who think it's okay to cheat online are other losers who also need to get a life.

Nah, really I'm not missing out. I have played both platforms online and PS3 is my preferred choice. I'm the opposite of you - I've had a PS3 since release day, but am on my 3rd Xbox which I only got cos it was so cheap. I get them and then regret it and sell them normally. I'll keep it this time though, just for the exclusives.
Personally, I prefer an online experience where you don't have spoilt little brats calling you ever racist or homophobic slur they can think of. And I'd rather not listen to someone else's favourite dubstep track while trying to play a game. There's certainly a lot more Xbox users (kids always buy the cheaper console), but that's not really relevant when the first thing you do is mute every single one of them.

Word and word. I would like if a few more people had mics on PS3 to call in movement in BF3, but the spot function works well enough that my K/D stays positive and my team usually wins. I'll deal with that sacrifice if it means no little turds flapping their gums and not having to pay another $30 a month on top of internet costs. PS3 controller fits my hands better as well, but that's just nitpicking.
