    Been on a COD kick lately. I need to get back to some Halo 5
    Haven't played COD in ages. Closest thing in Halo is SWAT, right?

    I'm loving the Warzone Assault mode. Quick games and a lot of action. Played a lot of arena but they need to add more game modes.

    Been playing more Fallout 4 recently. Once you get into it, it is a good game. Had some awesome battles in some great scenery. Took on about 100 ghouls in a town Sunday and it took me over an hour and I had to employ/invent numerous strategies. The big prize at the end was a 2072 World Series baseball bat I will never use.

    Been playing Tom Clany's The Division.

    It's MMO but plays fine as solo. I have no clue what I'm doing but it seems fun.

    Thinking about finally getting xbox one. Got rid of my 360 a few years ago, but I was playing FIFA at a friend's house last week and I think I'm ready to get back in. The 500GB model is only going for $300...not too bad.

    You should. This generation's consoles has been great so far. Quality games, solid hardware (no rings of death or lights of death).
    If you change your mind and go the PS4 route, my PSN name is "mca47". :D

    I think it's worth it and I only use it for streaming one game (over 100 hours into Halo 5 :blush:)

    Ha, nice playtime!
    I am only on the third stage of H5 as I spend most of my time in Destiny (followed by Forza 6).

    Indifference - I'd recommend an upgrade to next gen for sure. I don't know what it is about XB1 compared to 360 but I have far less video game ADD than I used to, I'm sticking to one game instead of buying everything I see.

    I agree. Got sick of buying games only to play them a bit and not have time for it all.

    Pretty good - though I usually can't say anything bad about it. But I'm pretty sure NBA2K has passed The Show as best sports video game.

    My only gripes with this game is they need to develop something where urgency over presentation is improved - just because a 1st basemen nonchalantly gloves a simple grounder to underhand to the pitcher covering 1st does not mean to do that slowly when a guy like Brett Gardner is the one hitting the ball, and nearly beats it out due to showing off the animation of a simple groundball pickup.

    And the commentary has become stale and redundant.

    End of rant.

    I didn't play last year's version, so I can only compare to the last PS3 version I played. Probably grab a copy tomorrow.
