No thanks.

I don't want ANY overlap with the Destiny fanbase.

Battlefront needs to be the new current gen game we've all been waiting for. 2014 has been a year of disappointments. Can you even think of five GOTY contenders? Titanfall, Destiny, Watchdogs - all letdowns (I don't play many Indie games so I can't speak for them). These are games that don't have you coming back for more. The only purchase I made that impressed me was Wolfenstein the New Order. Halo 5:Guardians also needs to show us what current gen can really do. But since Battlefront is centered on large scale combat it really needs to go all out.

2014 has been a disappointing year for games. I know the MCC will make up for it, but it is a collection of remasters after all and we know what we're getting. We will be getting a year and a half into the lifespan of these new consoles and can you really say either one of them has a killer app? A lot is riding on Battlefront to me, even though it is still a long ways off.

I'm doing my best to not overhype the new Battlefront

It shouldn't be that hard. The only thing you have to do is have a game with story focus and gameplay this isn't repetitive. Hell they can have only space battels and still destroy Destiny. I remember when No ans Sky got announced there was a shit storm. The reason why is because this small time game is having controllable ships and space combat. While Destiny this big budget AAA game doesn't have have controllable ships. They're just loading screens.

I wouldn't say it's GOAT or anything, but you should definitely pick up Shadow Of Mordor if you haven't got it already. The Nemesis system alone is worth the money.

But yeah next gen games have been pretty dire over the past year.

I did pick it up and it was enjoyable for about two weeks until I finished it (sans that final boss confrontation). I really have no desire to find all the collectibles so I'm pretty much finished with it. Maybe I'm just going through gamer fatigue. That will change come November.

That's if EAss doesn't screw it up.

Smash 4 3DS isn't really that impressive imo. Probably because 99% of what was fun about the other games was the party aspect, and I don't have any friends who have it
