Anyone play this? I keep seeing it is getting good reviews. At its core, I wonder if it is still a button-masher (like RYSE), or if there is more story to the game than just clearing the enemy from level after level.

Got a $50 Best Buy card as a gift the other day. Can't decide if I should put it toward Destiny or this One (or wait for Dragon Age III, because I loved the first 2).

looks good. Forza 2 is out now too. Madden 15 is solid.

Or save it to buy Evolve/mortal kombat

I'm liking it so far. I got both this and Sunset Overdrive from Gamefly this week and Mordor is getting all my time.

Mordor looked excellent, the overdrive game looks ok but nothing near the hype its getting.

Watching the videos the game released were very fluid but when I watch people play on twitch, of course they are nowhere near as smooth :)

I plan to try sunset at some point though, dont know if ill ever have the hours needed for Mordor.

There is way too much going on in Sunset. I think it will be going back soon honestly. With COD and Mordor, to go along with a sprinkling of Destiny, I don't think there is enough time to play a game i'm not really enjoying.
