I think the game that caught my attention most was Game & Wario. There are some nice little touches in it's presentation, but hopefully it's fun too. Then again, how could it not be?
Holy crap that's a great idea. There was no new Nintendo IP on the wii except for the titles that incorporated "Wii" into the name such as Wii Party. If there were to be a new face in Nintendo's roster I'm sure it could be used as a face to attract people to the struggling Wii U as well. A character that really takes advantage of what the system has to offer.
Seeing as how BO2 didn't get ANY DLC either well it seems that 3rd parties don't trust conumers AT ALL to continue supporting their games after release. Now if DLC wasn't a big part of games today I wouldn't bother saying anything, but according to the market it actually is.
RIP I had fun with a new experience which I'm sure will be very familiar to me into the distant future. May the Hunt continue in Ultimate, and hopefully sooner rather than later, 4 as well. Amen
@mudjo Presumably a game made by a large development team. Ubisoft has studios all around the world and companies like it and Activision have "smaller" studios do work on their big budget titles as well. A lot of talent, research, and the money for it go into a AAA title. In the end the consumer decides if it was worth the while though.
Entertainment and art in all forms of media are judged by anyone with a righteous and passionate mind (which should be any human being of reason). Everyone has their reasons and both fortunately and unfortunately people are not usually and easily changed.
Only complaint I had with the demo was the tolerable, but noticeably "low" framerate. Great game design and feel- my impressions as a newcomer to the series. I feel like I should play from the beginning as they may be old the first game at least looks appealing enough to play through and get a feel for the origins of the series.
I cannot stress enough to newcomers that you're ticket of entry will seem so much more expensive when you're not playing with friends or other knowledgeable hunters. They almost NEED to play with others. The thing is, who is going to tell them that?
I believe that the Wii U's success will be based almost entirely on it's ability to compete with the competitors power. This generation will not be based on how it's controls work and apply to the games (it would be quite difficult to appeal to the core gamers this way). I love the 1st party games, but if they want more people to be dedicated tot he system it will need the power to run as many next-gen games as possible or we'll have another Wii situation on our hands. The wii wasn't bad and I loved the care that went into it's best games, but to be honest I want the Wii U to be better than it's predecessor as much as it can be.
To be honest I'm worried that the multiplayer component is going to be glitched to all hell. I mean with weapons and other objects with no "collisioning" just screams map faults (to my eyes anywho) and Nintendo would probably feel like fixing it would "Be unfair to certain players." I hope the MP component is fun and reliable, but I feel nintendo doesn't exactly know how to handle online play just yet. I'm not worried about the SP though other than atrocious Dialogue.
I just wish Protocol would be released on Wiiware already. It'll probably be the last noteworthy title to arrive on the service. Woulda been nice to have at least a REAL game or two come to the wii shop this week.
I can't seem to get used to the turning in the game it's just too awkward. It's almost like it's not a matter of skill more a matter of trying to learn how to overcome a flaw.
I am taking this as a good thing for now. Good things can come from the smallest of places... not sure how that fits with this, but you should get my point.
Been a faithful CoD wii player since WaW. I am really enjoying MW3 and the patch for lag shooting has just gone through which highly pleases me. The thing that dissapoints me most is not having 12 player lobbies. It's still a tad hard to keep the action going with a smaller player count than the other consoles. On a lesser not from what I've seen camos are still not visible on player characters[another player's camo is not visible from your perspective without actually picking the weapon up from the ground] and can only be seen from First person perspective... suppose that's not any big deal by any means, but it would be nice to show off the camos to other players you earn like Reflex was capable of.
Stop stalling Capcom!!! You should know there are plenty of American fans now! How would it make them feel to wait another entire year!? Or not publishing overseas at all??? The Monster Hunter Hype would be all for nothing!!
Have the wiiware version and it's a most certainly interesting and challenging title albeit short. Not really interested in buying @$40. Might pick it up when it hit's $20 or less.
I'm so used to motion controls now that my dual analog skills have suffered severely. I fall at the hands of those that stuck with classics even with wiimote in hand. I do like motion controls better even though it doesn't really "deepen" the experience much.
