Another call out... sure these games aren't as tactical as they use to be, but with the right people, they can be played very tactical. We got R6 Siege and Battlefield 1, in 2 days we have For Honor and Sniper Elite 3 or is it 4m, I forgot... then later we have GR Wildlands and Ghost Sniper 3... all with a good squad or 2 player co-op mode.

SO, if you got a Xbox One, play any of those games... hit me up on live for a friend request or "Tactical Gamepad" XBL club membership. (I pretty much play console games now... few PC exceptions of course.)

Why did you switch to console gaming, Magnum? I just got into console gaming after my wife bought me an Xbox One for my B-day in October. It's a great platform for sports games. Madden, FIFA, hockey, basketball--the console and gamepad are perfectly matched. I'm also enjoying the heck out of my Xbox One with Project Cars and Assetta Corso and F1 2016, but only because I went out and got Logitech 920 Wheel and pedal set and a Wheel Stand Pro. Frankly, accept for sports games, other type games including tactical shooters and racing sims are unplayable with a gamepad. I tried it with Primal Far Cry and the gamepad is horrible for aiming, moving, turning. An actual shooter is even worse with a gamepad. I don't know how you do it with a gamepad. For a shooter, I've got to have a high DPI mouse and gaming keyboard with mechanical keys.

takes practice, now I even use a gamepad for PC gaming if tuned right.

back problems, can't sit on a computer chair for more then an hour without serious pain... but can on the couch for hours. wink

@Magnum I'll hit you up for Battlefield 1 and FH3 sometime now that I finally moved and got my XB1 unpacked thumbsup

I have Ghost Recon Wildlands coming on PC, but I have The Division on both PC and XB1, do you play that?
