New look Official Nintendo MAgazine scores: NSMB U 86%, Tekken Tag Tournament 2 88%, FIFA 13 80%, Zombi U 92%, Nintendo Land 90%. The had a very brief summary review of Sonic and SEGA ASRT on the website but then took it down as it didn't make it into the magazine . Seemed to think it was average at 62%. In contrast to the similar psbox versions rated at 8.6 by ign uk and 9 by Eurogamer. Also some of the ex Nintendo Gamer staff on twitter seem to like it.

Nintendo LAnd is basically newer than NSMB U in its ideas used! To be fair, the sound just as good as eachother. Also, weirdly, they only reviewed the Wii version of Epic Mickey and not the Wii U version. Basically, Disney have built on the stengths of the original with even more expansiveness, but still retained the niggly flaws of the first game. Imagine the Wii U will merely be the HD version of exactly the same game. 80%.

I find it hard to believe that ASRT only got a 69%. Surely it is better than that. Maybe they took down the review for reevaluation.

Yeah me to, but I'm more hyped for NSMBU, but I'll probably still have fun with nintendoland (especially the Metroid one)

Tell me about it, both will be great for parties too. I'm having a party with a few friends on Monday just to play multiplayer with those two games all day!

Correction - XB360-luvvin' xenophobes for reasons I've posted elsewhere. And you can throw Activision in with them too.
You've never read any of their PS3 reviews have you, particularly for cross-platform titles?

I can't tell you how mad I get when I see xenophobes post online about how Xbox is superior just because it isn't a Japanese system

Same here bro, It makes me ashamed to own a 360 whenever I hear crap like that...

i pretty much dislike it when anyone is bashing or claiming that one system is better then the other etc etc

Maybe it got poorly ported over to the system? There is a chance of that. Most of what I've been hearing of the game has been really good, so it seems odd to see that kind of score.

Does anyone know the player support for BLOPS II?
Is it the same as Wii or is it (fingers crossed) more on par with 360?

Glad I preordered the deluxe bundle (Nintendoland yay). But will probably wait on getting any other game... Mainly waiting for the Zombie U review/ videos of the final build of the game.

Just 2 more days...

It's a shame the actual non-creative part of the gameplay (the puzzle platforming) of Scribblenauts is so lame because it's otherwise one of the best series of the past decade and deserves even more credit than it already gets. I mean the new game basically has basic programming. And for a game that young kids play, that's really awesome.

Gamespot gave ZombiU a 4.5

Just watched the Video Review. I really hate video reviews that just slam a game for the same reason the entirety of the video.
There was no mention of how good the sound was or the graphics or how big the game is just the same bitching about repetition.
The review just went out to destroy the game it looks a hell of a lot better than Dead Rising which gamespot gave an 8.4. No way is that game an 8.4 sorry it was the most repetitive game ever. I don't understand game reviewers some times

The game probably isn't that great but reviewers should cover all aspects of the game not just ''it's repetitive''

I'll wait till it's a bit cheaper if the reviews are similar, the multi player part looks fun though, the misses will have a blast trying to kill me

@PinkSpider: Firstly, gaming is subjective. Secondly, reviewing a game by dividing it into and basing it on individual components (graphics, sound etc.) is silly; you review a game in its entirety. It's like a jigsaw puzzle - you see the game's true beauty as a whole image, not scattered into pieces.

Besides, ONM gave Zombi U a 92/100 and Jim Sterling (of Destructoid) also seems to like it via what I heard on Twitter, so GameSpot is probably in the minority. Either that, or they did a complete rush-job like some others did with Nintendo Land.

Gamespot is pretty terrible and should be ignored, even compared to the worst gaming sites.

granted I do also question ONM giving it a 90. I dunno, but I'm pretty certain this won't be a must-own title. Probably an above average game elevated beyond that for being the game that takes the most advantage of the new controller at launch and the sequel will be much better.
