Topic: Need for Speed: Most Wanted Wii U based off of PC, not 360

So many "ports" that we've seen for the Wii U since launch have been taken from previous gen systems, resulting in the idea that the Wii U isn't a next-gen system because the quality of them seem to either be on par or inferior to the last-gen versions. We could go on about lazy developers and such to make a point on why Wii U is more powerful, but instead, let's have a look at a game port that isn't based on last-gen systems. Here we have NFS:Most Wanted, another port, except from the PC instead of the 360, demonstrating that the Wii U does have the capacity of next-gen capabilities. As one of the YT comments says, "take note multiplat developers"

Nice

Oh really? That's cool and from what I've heard the game's cool too.

Wow, they are really putting a effort into it. Respect. Might actually pick it up.

i love this game getting it on wii u any date announced yet im sure it was but can't remember.

I don't even like non-kart racing games and now I'm considering picking this one up just on principle of supporting such a great effort.

Exactly how I feel.

So.... we hate EA but when EA does a good game on Wii U we all go out and buy it?

And you guys really wonder why EA continues to do what it does?

Not my kind of game but that does look impressive.

Logic is vague amongst fans.

Well, it's more of supporting them when they aren't doing a half-assed job. Of course though, they are only the publisher for this title, as this is developed by Criterion.

Criterion is owned by EA.

EA "only" publishes all EA games. EA's development studios make the games.

And if you buy EA games, you are supporting EA's business model. You really think EA cares which games you buy? No. The only way to make them care is to actually stand by the rhetoric that you hate EA and not buy its games.

I don't hate EA, every publisher has its problems but they do put out some good games. I think you are just grouping everyone together.

Valid point but not liking a company and liking a few of their 4 billion games is not necessarily a contradiction.

Well, my point was more that people don't seem to understand the idea behind a "boycott"

Kinda shooting your own protest in the foot if you boycott one game and then go buy something else by the same company.

by most people you mean the (much?) less than 1000 that spent 15 hours that day talking about games on the internets right?

Who said anyone was boycotting EA? Besides, wouldn't supporting a well done game over a cruddy one encourage them to continue making good games?

Cannot punish the developer for putting some extra work in for Wii U version.

Far as boycotting a publisher.......Nintendo console owners have been doing that for years and is nothing new, that is the reason we are seeing the lack of support.

This game looks amazing.

I like how the dev is putting effort into the port. That's a very respectable thing in the modern era of gaming. I was already going to get this but now I'm even more inclined to do so.
