Capital Territory
Graphics: 6/10 (Looks more like 2019 Modern Warfare)

They are going for original Bungie art style. The options on PC are crazy when it comes to graphical fidelity. Supports 144 HZ and widescreen.

Gameplay: Feels lot faster than something like Halo 3 or Reach. Maybe a tad faster than Halo 5 too. It has the traditional recoil less shooting mechanic. Some are fan of it, some are not. All in all it retains that classical Halo feel that is unlike any other Arena shooter.

Music and Sound Design: They have this sick combination of modern and classical Halo strings. All in all I really like it. Guns on the other hand dont feel as meaty as other modern shooters. Very muted.

They have not activated the live matchmaking yet. Only Bot matches so cannot say much about spawn situation.

One thing I like is there is no blue vs Red anymore. You can rock your own colors (your enemies will have a red highlighted outline). This is because of 343's plans to bring in customizable skin elements to the game.

I also encountered some bugs while matchmaking as maps failed to load and wonky menu elements.

Really enjoying this. The gunplay and movement is fantastic, esp the grapple hook which is implemented very well. The new map added today, Recharge, is much more fun than Live Fire. Lots of verticality on offer. The ODST bots are slightly tougher than Marine but still hopefully they open up the preview to PvP as well.

Only disappointing aspect here for now is the performance which is expected for a PC tech build as this isn't even a public beta. Hovers around 60fps which doesn't feel great coming from higher performing games.

    I dont think games have looked any better since 2019 onwards and they are performing worse and worse. Game developers have really dropped the ball.

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.
    did you know you can see @NaNoW credited in the game too ? :p

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    " Both PS5 and Series X have an unlocked frame-rate here, with performance that generally lies between 30fps and 45fps. That makes for a stuttering and inconsistent output in general play, no matter what you are doing at any given time."

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
