    GTA is on sale as well, looks to be even cheaper on physical media for in store Black Friday sales.

    The Division is on sale at Amazon.com right now for 9.99, both PS4 and XB1 versions (and they ship to Canada).

    Any recommendations? Cod/battlefield/titanfall? Heard COD wasn't great but I always enjoyed them(didn't play the last one), never seen the other 2 games. Looking for multiplayer mostly

    Overwatch and Battlefield are both good. Battlefield has a good campaign mode but I've not had a lot of time to play multiplayer due to the length of matches.

    Overwatch is on sale this week for 40% off. I've found it more enjoyable to play as there seems to be better teamwork and less racist 13 year olds playing. The matches are usually over in under 10 minutes so it works for someone like me that has limited time to game.
    No idea what overwatch is, I'll need to look that up. And I'm looking for short games since my time is very limited with the kids. Wish I had time to dive into witcher or the new final fantasy (which I'll probably attempt anyways)

    It's a game made by Blizzard and the quality is top notch. You choose "heroes" that each have special abilities and classes. There is no campaign but all DLC is free. Matches are 6 vs 6 style. The game doesn't focus on kill/death ratio as much as other games. I don't play online shooters because I suck at them, but I have fun playing this game.

    Ended up grabbing COD with the remastered. If I don't like it I'll sell and try overwatch. Thanks for the help

    Hell yeah!!!!!!!
    Easily one of my most favorite games of alltime! I did read that the lead director from the first won't be doing the second one though. It would be almost impossible to make a game as good as the first, but even if it's half as good, I'm still excited!

    Does the upscaled PS4 version look that much different than the PS3 version? I kind of want to re-play it too. Once I beat it the first time, I swore I wouldn't play it again, but now I want to. Is it worth the PS4 upgrade?

    Rise of the Tomb Raider for PS4 is a really good RPG / puzzle game unlike the previous entry which was an action game. Reminds me why the early games were so great and memorable.

    Titanfall 2 is my fav, no cod for me. Playing Last of us remastered on ps4 pro now. Game is awesome. Im finally back into some games after a long time. Also have Heavy rain, beyond 2 souls to play through too. And titanfall 2 and star wars battle front. Not enough time!!
    Wouldn't it be funny if the world ended in 2010, with lots of fire?

    First gameplay footage of the upcoming Friday the 13th multiplayer game. This looks like it's gonna be a blast.

    Resident Evil 7 has been splendid so far, although the 1st hour is a frustrating setup that doesn't give you much control. Sucks to see DLC is being released one week after the game is released. It is very gory. Atmosphere and graphics are great.

    I just downloaded the demo of that, can't wait to give it a try. But I've been addicted to Titanfall 2 and The Last of Us Remastered (never played it before).

    I'm excited to try RE7 in PSVR. I've heard it's pretty badass despite being a little disorienting.

    New Zelda game is being hailed as a masterpiece. Holding down a score of 98 on metacritic with 62 reviews, 33 of them gave a perfect score.

    I'm glad I pre-ordered the switch! (can't wait for my "back-ordered" email from Target :fearful: )

    Just got confirmation from Target, but probably won't get it until early next week. Can you download games vs buying cartridges?
