The game is set in 10,000 BC, in the Stone Age, a time where humans began to use stones to create tools for their daily life, where survival is a daily challenge as tribes come into conflict with one another and nature.[1] Players take on the role of a hunter named Takkar (Elias Toufexis),[2] who is stranded in Oros—a valley that was once covered in ice—with no weapons or resources after his hunting party is ambushed.[3] Takkar will eventually rise to power, and lead his own tribe.[4]

No firearms or vehicles could make things um... interesting. Good thing my favourite weapon was the hunting bow.

Was having a look yesterday.  Skyrim is my favourite ever game and I never thought that would happen with a bow as your primary long range weapon.  You would think if they put quite a few more upgrades/skills as per Skyrim then it would keep you interested.

The thing about having a nighttime and relying on fire sounds good. Im intrigued as to what they can do to though - aside from firearms, vehicles and grenades, things like houses didnt exist then. No guns and lots of caves might get old pretty quick.

And theyd better have a map of some kind - i hate games that dont have maps.

Haha, yeah me too.  Can see them doing the whole map that is carved into stone thing to make it realistic-ish.

I can see a lot of drug sequences coming into it, potentially dinosaurs? maybe?

Where would people like to see them go?

but with xmas coming up and my boy playing the 360 more and more and eating into my escape the missis time, I decided to take the plunge and purchase an xbox one last night

decent deal as well by the looks £299 for 500GB console, Fifa 16 and COD Black Ops 3 equates to about $644 worth of your Australian Dollars

how does that compare to you guys over there?
