@dexda: I envy you. Two seconds in I was like, "wow, this is definitely the Xbox One version."

Is that when it's running on the high end PC dev kits or on the PotatoStation 4?

I'm sure it looks nice but it would look better if you let PCs have it.

@tony_at_home: If gaming's a priority for you, you'll put the thing that let's you play games on your PC. If that thing is Windows 10 OS, which is literally the only other way to buy that game, then it kinda goes without saying that "buying a PC" includes buying a Windows license.

Why don't you dual boot? I get that Linux has a lot of uses outside what the average consumer might want or that you don't like how much MS is trying to spy on you with 10 but if you only use it for gaming then it shouldn't be so much of a problem.

Don't worry Xbox fans, next gen you'll get a remaster where it will run at 1080P60.

You could buy a PC now but... na.

@silversix_: It's always nice to know that I can still get the console experience on my PC. Should I also install some slower storage & take out a couple of RAM DIMMs?

@whatsazerg: Hey it's a solid three inches but it's still pretty impressive... right?

Maybe find some other good aspects to talk about.

@*LtJonnyRicoFMI@Techtroll@Kraven1845@IIIMatricksIII@pongley <Did I get everyone?

Hey, thanks for replying. The initial impressions that I got were that there's only about 10 hours or so of story & it was pretty easy to blitz through to hit max level. If there really is a decent amount of content, you may have convinced me to give the game another look.

I played in the closed beta so I know what the core gameplay is like but it sounded like the bulk of the game would be grinding or repetitive content. If I can spend a good amount of time enjoying the world & the process of leveling up without having to run missions again on different difficulties then it might be worth a try.

To those that think I should try the game before making comments like this (thanks @raj710 for your trolling, even if your comment was deleted, it was kinda funny), the whole point is that I don't want to pay $60 for a game I may not like. I wasn't saying anything bad about the game, just that it may not be for me.

Anyway, I'm about 40 hours deep into MGS V at the moment but I might look into The Division again if there's a price drop.

@rush86: The whole point is that I can't try it unless I buy the game & that's expensive.

I played a bit in the closed beta so I know what the core gameplay is like but I've only got other people's word to go on as far as story length goes. If there's a decent amount of gameplay without having to grind or play repetitive content then I still might give it a try at a lower price.

I would play the Division if there was 20-30 hours of decent story missions & progression. It looks like they're mainly pushing it as a multiplayer game with a bit of story to get you started. The beta showed some potential but I'm all about single player games with some occasional co-op. "End-game" is when the credits roll & I boot up the next game, I have no patience for games that feed players tiny chunks of content over months.

@scoobijohn: There's some other vertical slice footage that's been shown where crashed cars are frozen mid-air on a bridge or something. That looked like it made better use of the theme but mechanically it's still just another cover shooter for the most part.

I didn't see any cooldown timers visible here but I imagine they exist so the game isn't ridiculously easy. The time freezing mechanic is kind of cool but it doesn't look like there's as much freedom for creativity as say, Dishonored. I won't write the game off yet though, it seems like MS is backing it to be a big release. I'll wait to see what the reviews say.
