Best part of my Wednesdays

SomeGameNews

Call of Duty trophy data I'd estimate at least 20-30% of people buy a CoD game solely because the campaign is included. Another portion buys for the complete package, and the majority (but not the overwhelming majority) buy for multiplayer only. Advanced Warfare - 50.7% completed the first mission, 33% completed six missions, 25.1% (PS4) 27.9% (PS3) finished campaign/15 missions , (No multiplayer related trophies for this) Infinite Warfare - Single Player - 42.9% completed at least one mission, 17.8% did at least one optional side mission, 16% completed campaign Infinite Warfare - Multiplayer - 22% of people won 5 or more matches online (conversely, 78% of people won less than 5 matches online) WWII - Single Player - 50.8% completed the first mission, 44.6% completed the second, 39.9 % completed the third mission, 30.4% completed the sixth, 24.5% finished campaign (11 missions + epilogue) WWII - Multiplayer - 65% of people got more than 10 kills online (conversely 35% of people got less than 10 kills online), 23.6% of people won more than 5 War matches, 21% of people reached Prestige 1 in multiplayer, Black Ops 3 - 10.2% finished campaign (game only had trophies for mission completion on harder difficulties which are naturally lower) Black Ops 3 Multiplayer - 24.1% Prestiged. Black Ops 2 Single Player - 37.3% complete first mission, 33.2% second mission, 18.6% completed campaign Black Ops 2 Multiplayer - 62.8% reached level 10 (conversely, 28.2% of people never reached level 10 which only takes a couple of hours), 25% Prestiged

Corrections: Halo 3 ODST had the Halo 3 Multiplayer, not Reach. Another series that did this was Uncharted: Lost Legacy had A Thief's End's multiplayer. 4.5 is how many seconds per 40 yards sprinted. For this example, this individual ran 40 yards in 4 and a half seconds.

Reese Redmond

Correction: 4.5 speed in football means he can run 40 yards in 4.5 seconds.

I believe Ninja tweeted that he had played with Drake after that giant stream.

Dustin McNab

Birds add great atmosphere to the world and I love Jones' bird call. If anything, Kyle's is the weaker one.

No Shenmue talk?

Samuel Cardwell

Loved the off-the-rails last fifteen minutes! You can't force it, but it felt like it'd been a while (Ian and Ben used to guarantee it! :))

Anonymous

pretty much anti bird.

Juan Morales

I really really loved DIssidia tho.. It's one of the few fighting games that I'm kinda ok at :(

Raven Perez

BIRDS = DINOSAUR CULMINATION

Cash

Not a fan Jones, Bad Bird

Dileepan M

Jolly stream as always. Loved it. Also, Pro Bird!

Andrew Chalmers

Is it just me, or does the video look very red. It's like the colour balance settings are off? Maybe it's my screen though.

erni

Isnt it interesting how the game you describe as the standart successful Sony franchise: story focues, companion character etc. is really, except that it was an FPS and that game was often lamented for being that, Bioshock Infinite? :)

MBUN

Thank you for bringing that comforting glow of the pink light back. Thank you Damiani for encouraging Kyle talk about the loot boxes added to Animal Crossing Pocket Camp recently. Like Kyle said, I'm sure Nintendo is testing the waters for what people find acceptable, and I think every podcast and game news site that shows a negative reaction to this addition helps protect the future of the franchise in part and encourage a change for the mobile title.

As a on and off again parakeet owner. I am for sure... PRO BIRD! KEEP IT ALIVE JONES!

Dale Payne

It is a 40yd dash in 4.5 seconds. College students are timed at the nfl combine based on their speed Pro bird!

Things that were once considered geeky tend to be considered the norm once time passes and people grow into them. Just look at Korean pop music, I had a friend who loved it for years and I thought it was very geeky and now its big all over the world and isn't considered as geeky as it once was.

I know. I kept asking Jones about this in COJ but never really got an answer to why they dropped the pink light. Ian said doing this podcast that one of the lights was off. Maybe that's why it looks like this again. Maybe it's a mistake.... But it looks som much better than normal. Way more professional. We have to make sure that they know this so they don't change it back.

Mikkel Bak Sørensen

Please keep the lights as they are right now. It looks so much better. I think a lot of people agree. Just read the Youtube comments and in here

Most likely the football players speed is based on a 40 yard sprint.

Halo Anniversary was the other Halo release to feature the previous game’s multiplayer instead of its own. In this case though it was limited to the newly remade Halo CE maps (which could also be purchased separately); you needed Reach to access the full suite, unlike ODST which included the entirety of 3’s multiplayer features alongside its new maps.

Dafydd Gape

CORRECTION: 4.5 Speed is most likely referring to his 40-yard dash time. This is considered very important for NFL Scouts. 4.5 is a very impressive speed for a man of his size.

Dafydd Gape

Can I also say that it was great to hear Ian talk positively about Microsoft? Good job guys on another great podcast!

love this page, please visit the mine guys! ♥

The allies should time their 40 yard dashes.

Anonymous

CORRECTION: The "4.5 speed" is probably 4.5 seconds for a 40 yard dash. It's a very common benchmark of someone's speed, used in American football and Ultimate Frisbee.

Birds: I'm pro-birds. Had a girlfriend that also thought birds were super creepy, which I thought was odd then, and I think it's odd now.

Erunion

Pro-Bird for sure. We used to have chickens, and watching those tiny dinosaurs run around the yard is a fun experience. I submit as evidence the following video link, showing our dog interacting with a rooster. <a href="https://youtu.be/WSIfQMNyqfw" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/WSIfQMNyqfw</a>

Personally I really loved Playstation All Stars: Battle Royale. I had it on the vita and played it a TON. All of the characters really felt like they honored the games they were from (even Colonel Radec from Killzone). Spyro and Crash would of been neat, but honestly all of the heavy hitters of the Sony franchise were there (in my opinion). Jak and Daxter, Ratchet and Clank, Sly Cooper, Kratos, Nathan Drake, Cole MacGrath, they even had freakin PARAPPA DA RAPPER (looking at you Kyle). I agree they should do away with the "super kills" mechanic and make it more like Smash. But I don't agree with just waiving away characters, environments, or items that are part of the Sony legacy... just cause you didn't play/enjoy the game they are from (or you think their game isn't "relevant" anymore). Smash has a ton of obscure characters and references, which is what makes the game so fun. Granted I am a huge Sony fanboy, so my opinion is very biased... but if they want to do a Resistance level (a franchise that had 3 successful games to it), let them do a Resistance level gosh darnit! : )
