sounds like your rig just sucks. cus new Vegas is far more well rounded than the other fallouts
Do you think an RTX 4070 isn't capable of handling a 14 year old game? ... or maybe the crashes are well documented with New Vegas thanks to, among other things, a well known memory leak.
@@YourEraGamer ive literally never had a problem playing new Vegas ever.
@@chieftalltrees8970 The issues aren't consistent across the board. Some players don't have these issues while others are plagued by them. I got unlucky and encountered those problems.
@@YourEraGamer sounds like a skill issue
@@chieftalltrees8970 Dafuq?
Xbox One Today is still good tbh
Definitely agree. Getting a lot of entertainment out of it so far already.
I couldn't get used to the control scheme either.
Definitely not a standard scheme, that's for sure. I think I'm eventually going to find out if I can get used to the controls or not once I pick up and continue where I left off. I'm currently unsure I will get used to those controls or not.
The first Mirror's Edge was the first console game I bought with my own money. The difficulty curve was too much for me and I couldn't beat it. I was thinking about buying this game. However, I saw the reviews and decided against it. EA tries something original and completely ruins it, again!
I was able to beat that game, but only after some difficulty. The graphics and the way it played really made it seem like it was one of those games that you were better off watching someone else play than playing yourself. The graphics and some of the music was definitely quite good, though.
This game looks impressive. The realistic weather effects on the cockpit window look amazing. Also, this looks really realistic and not arcade-like at all.
This was a game I really had no clue what it would be like to play. I hadn't heard of the franchise and I just went in blind. Definitely going to be an interesting one for me to play further into at least!
Cole is a Conduit. They are people who can gain special abilities. Cole's coduit powers are electic based.
Oh, interesting. Didn't know that. :)
Back when EB Games let you try games, they had a demo for this game. When I got my PS3, this was the first game I bought for it. I played it for the entire month. I have great memories of this game. Note, they replaced the actor who played Cole in this game with a new actor in the second game. That game had motion capture cutscenes in it. They wanted someone different. One of the early trailers for the sequel had Cole look more like Nathan Drake. They had to change Cole's design for the second game.
Oopsie. It's understandable to see something like that happen. One character looking similar to another. It kind of reminds me of bullet time from Max Payne. The developers came up with this cool idea of slowing down time so Payne could take out enemies in a really cool manner. They had no idea at the time that it was the same idea that was being used in The Matrix. I can only imagine some of those developers going in to watch the Matrix and being surprised that the idea was appearing in a movie as well.
The one you couldn't remember was Destiny.
It is always annoying when I'm going to make a point, then the game I'm going to reference ends up being on the tip of my tongue and I just can't spit it out. Ah well, it happens. The list of games I played and showed on KZread is only going to get longer, so it's probably going to get more and more common that there are games I'll suddenly forget.
Electroic Arts published this. This is par for the course. It wouldn't surprise me if this game was rushed without fixing all the bugs.
There were probably some issues with it (don't know for sure on that), though I suspect this is more about a game that has fallen into disrepair. This was released around the time of Windows Vista and Windows XP, so it probably isn't a surprise that a game or two this old suddenly stops working.
If fallout 3 was to be free any other game bethesa has had to be free since they all crash some how
lolwut?
I hope you get a series x soon brother
It's in the plans at least! :)
For steam version I also have splash screen stuck problem but for weird reason once when I told steam to stop the game it will immediately launch for me. I also have crash problem on in game setting but if I change the game resolution and apply it before change another setting the crash will not happened. (I found Kane Wrath also give me the same issue but not consistent as RA3)
It's still working for me
Steam version is worse version... Do refund and buy it from EA launcher less problems and more stable.... It's graet game i enjoy it a lot.... I was playing C&C franchise since i was 7 years.... Best of luck to you👍
Great feedback. If I get a chance, I'll definitely give that a try!😀 I do feel bad not getting to review this franchise in any considerable manner and feel like I'm missing out a lot by not getting a chance to play it properly, so, hopefully I'll get another shot on this one sometime in the future.
just pirate it. works best.
It probably does, but I have plenty of other official releases waiting in the queue. If I get a chance to try another version of it, I probably will (i.e. PS3 version).
is this ai generated?
I'm curious why you think this video is AI generated.
@@YourEraGamer the description is gibberish
@@FourKelvin I'm sorry you think basic English is gibberish.
Is this satire? Because you couldn't figure out how to make a 16 year game run it is therefore broken? And you are doing a.....non........review on it? And in the description says you had the n64 version of this game? WTF are you talking about? As far as I tell the only C&C that was released for the N64 was the first one. Not even red alert 1. I genuinely cannot tell if this is satire or not. edit : for the funzies, I installed red alert 3 uprising, from steam. And it worked perfectly. Its basically the same game. I think this is a instance of PEBKAC.
I mentioned playing an N64 C&C in the context of having experience in the franchise - hence why I was excited to play the game only to find it doesn't work. The fact that this game has been well known to not work for a lot of modern operating systems means it's not a "me" problem. Numerous people have not only posted on various communities about running into the exact same issues as me, but the problems have stumped those same communities as well. If you paid attention to what I said, I ran through the NUMEROUS ways I attempted to troubleshoot and fix the problems, but none of these efforts worked. I did what any reasonable gamer would do and then some, yet the game doesn't boot due to the developers letting this game fall into disrepair. As someone who reviews these things, I have to post based on my experience. In my case, I paid for what ended up being a broken game.
Why don’t u just get a pre owned Xbox series s seriously u can get them for £100 in the UK so u talking wat $125 US. I mean if ur happy with the old generations then carry on but a lot of the new games u won’t be able to play especially the biggest game ever GTA 6, plus u can get Xbox game pass and play loads of new releases on day one and u have all the old games, pretty much all the games u showed are on Xbox game pass, it just makes more sense to me to just upgrade
I wish I could fully explain my overall strategy which involves me getting this console, but I can say that you're going to be really happy with where I intend on taking this channel in the future if you are interested in the more modern stuff. A big stumbling block is, indeed, money as modern consoles and games can get quite expensive compared to older generations. For instance, here in Canada, a new title can run as high as $90 (sometimes, even higher in specialized circumstances). Meanwhile, titles on older generations can go for as cheap as $3. What's more, there is an inherent advantage to getting a hard copy version of the game vs digital which can be arbitrarily deleted at any time. This over top of not having to worry about emulation issues when playing older titles since I am in possession of the older hardware the games were originally designed for. Also, had I not bought this console, I wouldn't have gotten all this response from the KZread community in the first place which is a nice bonus. I'm currently in the process of more or less catching up to modern gaming. After a few years, I'm now largely going through the previous generation of consoles, so it's not going to take much imagination where I intend on heading next. At this point, I'm getting a broader understanding of how gaming led to the modern era which, in theory, will make me more knowledgeable about the newest games than before. Additionally, I use a careful strategy of investing in the background to enable me to pay for these things. The longer an investment has a chance to grow, the better (especially if you are constantly adding additional funds to the base contribution). Because of this, by placing modern games at the back of the line, so to speak, those investments will be given the maximum chance to grow, making it easier to afford $650 consoles and $90 games in the long run. It's a multi-year twin strategy that is very nearly complete and, hopefully, will result in even better and more interesting content soon. It may not seem like much being shown on the surface for some, but there is a LOT going on behind the scenes. :)
r u a bot
I would be a pretty impressive one if I was.
Those are all good recommendations. I'm glad you like Horizon: Zero Dawn above all of them. It was an amazing game that I won't forget for some time. Borderlands 3, in my opinion, isn't as good as Borderlands 2. Uncharted 4 was also good. I'm glad you like those games above the others.
Thanks. Going to be interesting to see how 2024 ultimately stacks up to this lineup!
These games look like they're designed to push the technology of the XBOX ONE. It's incredibly detailed. As for what game is the best, it's always subjective. Nobody can ever really agree on which game of a series is the best one. I'm glad you've enjoyed playing these games.
Yeah. So far, I've found each entry on relatively equal footing for the most part. All of them have been great so far. Can't wait to get further into this one and see if it measures up to the other entries (currently working with a large backlog of games at the moment).
This game is interesting to me. The game transitions between a Donkey Kong Country type level to a top-down Legend of Zelda type game. I remember playing the Donkey Kong Country games as a kid. I've seen enough top-down Zelda games to know what it looks like.
The transition between the two play styles was definitely interesting to me as well. This especially given the knowledge of how the previous game in this franchise played (which is, yet again, different to my understanding).
these are basically the fan favourites of each game starting from 3 to 5 forza 3's main city was a game changer for everyone, it made the game much more open and colorful compared to forza 4's main city forza 4's season changes was a game changer for everyone making the game feel much more refreshing forza 5's environment, detail, and much better drifting capability compared to previous forza releases, was the most appeasing part, there is not much going on in forza 5, fans want the city map from 3 the season changes from 4 and the features and mechanics (drifting for example ) from 5 to be implemented into one single game.
Glad to hear I have something to look forward to in 5. Definitely agree that 3's city features were excellent all around. The season changes in 4 was also a great feature and was definitely a highlight for me too.
Rubberbanding is the word i think
This video feels like from 2013 for some reason (even though the xbox one s was exist in 2016)
There's only two things I can think of that would make you feel that way. The first possibility is the set itself. I don't have the financial resources to build an elaborate set to showcase hardware, so I'm basically making do with what I have. While I think what I have here is fine and at least allows me to offer a good look, I know that there are far better setups out there. The other possibility I can think of it is the fact that there are no jump cuts or editing of any kind. I don't have access to video editing to make it polished, create animations on the side, have text or images pop up, etc. Every video I do is done in one take because of this limitation. On both counts, I hope I can, someday, be able to afford a better setup to showcase this stuff in a more polished manner.
That’s totally fine, i like it. It remind me the old youtube days. That’s what i like to say “nostalgic” Good job for that content, keep it up.
@@HamOzer Thanks! You've also given me something interesting to think about as well, so I appreciate it! :)
I agree that this is a lot like Diablo. This gameplay style has been emulated dozens of times. The weirdest one I can think of is Minecraft: Dungeons. Imagine taking the designs of Minecraft characters and putting them in a dungeon crawl game. Otherwise, I don't really have too much to say about this game. I had no idea it even existed.
Yeah, the Sacred games aren't that well known and sacred 3 is probably the most obscure of the three main titles thanks to it apparently playing far more different than the first 2 (it is very negatively reviewed on Steam). Another game series that plays like Diablo is Torchlight and torchlight 2 (video's of both are on my channel as well). Both are great games in my book. I wished I found more games that play along this style, personally, but I think I got a couple of them at least.
I've seen several let's plays for this game. It was an interesting idea to develop a first person shooter around bank heists. It's somethign Rockstar would add to GTAV later on. Also, I think none of the bank security would risk their lives by shooting at your crew. It's just me, but most employees are probably trained to cooperate and not to resist.
Yeah, that was probably unrealistic, but something to add to the challenge of the game. Sometimes, realism gets sacrificed for the sake of gameplay and, often, I'm OK with those decisions. For instance, games typically limit the range of shotguns to only have high damage up close. In real life, that limitation doesn't really exist with such weapons.
I don't have any neat observation to contribute. I only remember that this gameplay style was used for a Terminator Salvation tie-in game. The game was set in the future and you could play as John Connor. Several of the movies actors lent their voices for the game roles. That's it. I got nothing else.
Interesting. While playing this one, I didn't even think of anything related to the Terminator franchise. Huh.
Full disclosure. This game was the first game I bought for the PS4. Now, let's talk about the background of the franchise. Many people called the Killzone series Sony's answer to Halo. It never quite reached the same heights as Halo. To keep things simple, humans established colonies on two planets orbiting Alpha Centauri. One planet, Vekta, was a lush Earth-like world. The other, Helghan, was a harsh wasteland. A war between rival companies forced Vektan colonists to Helghan. The planet's environment mutated them. They founded a society based on militarism and authoritarianism. Basically, the Helghast were space Nazis. The Vektan I.S.A. assaulted Helghan. The third game left the planet uninhabitable. The ISA allowed Helghast survivors to colonize half of Vekta. Now, a giant wall divides the two powers. It's a complicated setup for a spy story. The main character conducts black ops missions in Helghast territory. There are people in Vektan society who want to reclaim the planet. Remove the Helghast entirely. Quite the ambitious story, huh?
Sounds like it. Great to get that kind of background knowledge so I can have a better chance at understanding what is going on moving forward. Will definitely be interested to see how well it plays.
This was a strange and innovative game. Konami was one of the great game publishers. Now it's antagonizing brilliant developers like Hideo Kojima. I played a demo of this game from a demo disc from the Official U.S. PlayStation Magazine. It was innovative then and it's still innovative today.
It really was a very unique title and franchise. When I played the original Katamari Damacy and We Love Katamari, I had loads of fun with them, so I was excited to play this one. I know some people just see footage of the gameplay and think it's a strange game and get a bit turned off by how it looks while playing, but once you get into it, it really is a lot of run to play. At least, that was my experience with it.
I will start with the obligatory EA ruins everything statement. Moving on, the game looks amazing. Bioware had a talented development team that EA squandered. Watching this game makes me realize something. The gameplay would make a perfect template for a Star Trek game. If you look at the game Star Trek: Resurgence, the gameplay and cinematics look similar to Mass Effect. It's just something neat I noticed.
I'm actually hoping to get to some Star Wars game at some point, but at the moment, there's only a couple of Star Wars games I've played which were more DOS era games. This may be something I should keep in the back of my mind whenever I get to the newer titles after I get to playing this one. :)
I still daily drive my Xbox one from 2013, a close family member gave it to me in 2016 and I’ve been using it ever since
Underrated man! I’m glad I came across this 👍
Thanks for the kind words! I really appreciate it!😄
I have an Xbox One S if anyone is interested, works perfectly.
Can we talk
That was a cool intro race. The developers put a lot of effort to showcase the different environments. It would be cool to see races in the different environments.
It really was a neat thing to see in the game. The intro speeds through the seasons, but when you play through the rest of the game, you'll advance a season for every real time week. If you start with Summer, the next week will be Fall followed by week 3 being Winter and so on. It was actually a pretty cool mechanic to say the least.
Also, I like your strategy of picking them off from a distance.
Thanks! I think that was a strategy I picked up from playing the Far Cry franchise. Sniping was a go-to strategy for getting those "undetected" XP bonuses along the way. Strange I only used that strategy minimally while playing Skyrim, though, given how much I heard that style of play was overpowering.
Let's start by saying the World War Z film and games have strayed far from the actual book. The book is a series of interviews done ten years after a zombie apocalypse. It's written by Max Brooks, the son of Mel Brooks. It's far superior to the film in every way. The actual only has the title in common. Hollywood ruined it. With that out of the way. The actual game reminds me of Left 4 Dead. It has that same vibe to it.
It's weird that I thought that the name "World War Z" rang a bell to me when I bought it, but I didn't know why. Maybe I had heard of the title in passing with respect to either the book or the movie, but dunno. Anyway, yeah, playing this felt like I was playing another Left 4 Dead title, for sure. Can't wait to get further into this game to get a better feel for it.
From what I understand, the guy who helped develop the early games left Ubisoft. He had a deal with THQ before the company went under. Also, I'm sure that's Nolan North voicing the playable future guy. Also, the graphics look just like graphics from 2009.
I never drew any connection between this and the Uncharted series, but you're right! The voice actor for Drake is the same voice actor for Desmond! Great catch there!
This game has a lot to say about a lot of things. Some of the topics covered include racism, colonialism, fate, religious extremism, cults, etc. Eventually, you will reach Elisabeth. You'll also encounter her giant bird protector. Also, they're not done with Rapture just yet.
Interesting. Lots to look forward to from the sounds of things.
This game had a lot of weird plot twists. I saw parts of a playthrough done by Achievement Hunter (years before they disbanded). I was surprised that Cortana became the main villain. She also sent Earth back to the Stone Age by destroying its computers. There was also a series of downloadable missions involving former Red vs Blue cast members. They were funny easter eggs of a better time for the internet.
I remember watching Red vs. Blue in the early days. They were quite entertaining back then. Kind of a shame Rooster Teeth (the company behind that series) is shutting down.
Just a minor correction. Titan is a moon of Saturn, not Jupiter. Also, I completely forgot this game existed. It's almost completely forgettable. I can't remember what the story was about. The special abilities feel like they belong in a Ratchet and Clank game. I also think this is the game that either had a horde mode or developed a mode where you can kill people with hand gestures. I'm not sure which one.
Yeah, that was, admittedly, a slip up on my part. Honestly, going into this game, I wasn't expecting to be contemplating astronomy at all. Ah well. I remember Black Ops III had hand gestures to take down enemies. You had immolation and a few other abilities to help you out. Don't know if this one has that as well or not, though. I've been finding a lot of Call of Duty games to be quite forgettable. If I'm lucky, I might remember what half of them are about already. That's the pitfall of these games being a dime a dozen. They tend to be lower quality and forgettable. Side note: I recently found out that Call of Duty: Black Ops II is currently being sold on Steam for $80. It wasn't even all that great in the first place.

Some trivia. The same voice actor who voices Ratchet also voices Obi-Wan Kenobi in the Clone Wars animated series. Also, Ratchet and Clank games are always awesome. I played the latest game not too long ago. I don't remember starting a Ratchet and Clank game while playing as Clank.
FYI, the latest game is Shattered Dimensions. You can play it once you get to the PS5.
Also, the same voice actor who voices Clank also does Radio voice overs for the Prince George radio station 94.3 The Goat. I recognize his voice when I hear it.
Cool
Crossovers in voice acting can be quite surprising. For instance, James Avery played that father figure in Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. He also provided the voice for Shredder in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles among other characters. Gilbert Gottfried is another one. He provided the voice for the parrot in the classic Aladdin movie. Sometimes, connections of animated characters and the people that provided the voices can be absolutely mind blowing at times, though in retrospect, makes perfect sense after you find out. (also, sorry for the late reply. Had a heck of a lot going on in the last several days.)
The latest game for Ratchet & Clank you mean? If so, I'm a bit confused because I'm not finding references to that. The latest game that I was aware of is Rift Apart.
This definitely looks like Fallout. It's graphics look dated compared to now. Also, it looks like you have a bolt-action carbine gun. It looks ancient compared to Fallout's post-apocalyptic setting.
Since all of this new, I didn't know how much of it would look familiar to players of newer instalments. Interesting to know, though. I'm not all that familiar with the weapon systems yet in this game, but I do know that it is a starter weapon. Maybe that would play a role in that? Dunno.
That's quite a variety of games. Call of Duty hasn't been the same since the departures of West and Zampenella. Sorry Perfect Dark wasn't good. Rare wasn't the same after Microsoft bought them.
I did feel a little bad having a stack of shooters and choosing to not recommend a single one, but, yeah, the shooter selection this time ended up being duds for the most part. Sometimes, the luck of the draw works against you, what can I say?
It's an awesome intro. I couldn't help but notice the blatant product placement. I bet Monster paid a bunch of money to get their ads in this game. While you were racing the intro race, it looked like you were driving a dune buggy while racing against cars, like a Mini Cooper. It just seemed weird to me. The graphics seem way better compared to the other Forza games you played.
It really is quite the improvement in graphics. Forza Horizon does take tuning a bit out of the equation, though. Each car is given a performance rating. So, if your car has a performance rating of 500, the opponent vehicles have to be reasonably close to your performance rating. because of this mechanic, though, it pretty much defeated the purpose of tuning or upgrading your vehicle. So, I just race stock. Also because of this, you could have dune buggy's racing old Jeeps racing against modern Ford trucks and it would be an evenly matched race. You end up getting some pretty... interesting... line-ups as a result of this.
Interesting. I've never seen you do a let's play before. Watching this makes me realize how bad I am at Tetris. I can't play that fast. Also, have you heard of a Tetris Battle Royale? It's like normal Tetris, except you're playing against 99 other players. At any time, you can mess with players' games and have them eliminated.
Also, Imagine this game with the Doom Music. That would be awesome.😁
I've practised off and on whenever I needed a break from getting through video games I'm currently reviewing. I'm actually quite fast compared to the average player. Like, I go into the main JSTris room to see how well I do and it isn't uncommon for me to place at least in the top 10. I usually get at least a 2nd place, if not, a victory over the course of a couple of minutes. There are, obviously, players who are far better than me, though, so I wouldn't claim I'm one of the best out there, either. A large majority of players can't pay this fast either, so it's no big deal. I'm sure you're fine. :) My record in survival, currently, has me ranked 3885th or the top 4.129% of players if that helps add some context. I haven't heard of Tetris Battle Royale, but I have heard of Tetris 99 and Tetris Effect. I'll look into it. :)
@@YourEraGamer Tetris 99 was the Battle Royale game I was talking about.
Ahh, gotcha! @@afilio11
i wish u could get this game and the other Forza Horizon 3 and under on steam for pc
That would be nice, wouldn't it? If I understand correctly, it sounds like the developers are doing what they can to sell their latest instalment and going to the extreme of delisting older titles in the process. I'm not really sure why this is a strategy they are employing unless they are trying to pump up numbers for their latest game. Even then, (if that is the strategy they are employing) it strikes me as a strategy of cutting off their nose to spite their face. I mean, there's something to be said about giving the people what they want, right? It shouldn't require scrounging around for the original disc to be able to play this title.
Lots of love man, keep up the good work!
Thanks! :)
This is giving me Bioshock vibes. It's not an underwater city, but it's still underwater. The game does look good. It looks like a first-person game with a Minecraft crafting component. Let me know how this game is. I might try and find it on the PlayStation store.
Definitely will do. I've heard so many great things about this and, so far, it's turning out to be a pretty good game.
