Good to see them moving on but I'm personally getting a bit tired of pixel art and 2D, whereas horror fps was something I was really looking forward to. Oh well.
I'm very much looking forward to the Wii U version since U is currently my only console. If the delay gets massive it might be a different story since I plan to buy a PS4 sometime later this year or early 2015. I also want to read a couple of reviews before I make my mind. August-september would be ideal and even quite realistic I think.
It's quite unfair if some parts of Europe (or world for that matter) are excluded. I'm a bit worried about this but if I order a copy from UK to be sure I get the code and use my UK account on Club Nintendo it could work I guess.
For some reason I have always loved both jetpacks and playing with gravity (in games, obviously) so this seems like a no-brainer to me. Good job, dude!
This COULD be fun but obviously needs polishing. I've been interested in that TNT Racers in eShop but according to reviews there is something wrong with it, don't know exactly what but it's kept me away from it.
Wow, Wii's had a loooong run. It will also probably outsell the Wii U version which is sad. Hope they market the Wii U version well enough. It's still kinda big game.
Best news in ages! Releasing this only in Japan would not make sense at all. The install base will be small even after the big games hit the country. So at least Europe should be included like last time but I sincerely hope you US guys will also get this. Great series.
A slight horror vibe is already included in the series but I wouldn't mind seeing it being taken further. I doubt that would make the series more popular though as action is what mainstream audience wants. And a great multiplayer. Personally I would totally ignore it like every other multiplayer but it must be there for the masses that like that kind of stuff.
Good idea. The original Prince of Persia was one of the first games if not THE first game I ever played. In our basement kind of space somewhere around 1991. Man, that was some time ago.
A delayed new IP? I hope it will succeed but I don't think it will get anywhere near the big sellers. We don't even know if it's good yet. It could be mediocre and sell ok but not great.
@Kaze_Memaryu Yeah, I didn't mind the whole "making Samus a real person" thing at all, it was the gameplay that made the whole game seem like a chore. I'd like to give it another chance still. You can get it for basically free these days
I want this. Actually I'd prefer more exploration-based approach and calm atmosphere. I don't know a single thing about the original so I'm clueless for that matter
I have nothing against either one but I think they are both done with the U by now. In my wildest dreams EA would announce Dead Space Trilogy Remastered for Wii U and Ubisoft would bring some polished and properly optimized ports that take advantage of the hardware.
Both have done reasonably good job on U, I think. Most Wanted U is polished enough to be a first party product, ME3 was great and I've played like 5-6 Ubisoft titles and they've been varying in quality but mostly great.
@Goginho I also think so. Obviously the resolution is quite a bit lower but the overall style is much more appealing. Those Sheik pics are awesome on 3DS.
Slightly reminds me of Red Steel 2 which is awesome. It's a pity they won't reach their target unless something miraculous happens. I would really want to see this happen!
Looks neat. Great job. Why is the Wii U gamepad so big? I love it but it is a bit clunky although comfortable. Just... I mean this thing holds a complete console inside and its still quite compact. Yeah the gamepad screen is big but it COULD be more "sexy". At least one old man would be happy if you know what I mean.
A little pause wouldn't bring the world to an end. Maybe even try something else. Something really far out! Maybe even a game without Mario! I'm crazy I know but that could really work...
No, I can't reach the necessary level of sarcasm right now.
The best way to fight this problem IMO is to make superior products instead of endless lawsuits that lead nowhere. No way these cheap clones can make it in the market unless the chinese really know nothing about gaming which might be the case, I wouldn't know really.
Probably just AC4. It's awesome and so much better than AC3. Maybe also some agonizing pain that is getting better times in AiRace Speed. I love that game but god do I hate that game.
Wanted to see some gameplay so watched a video on youtube. That was hilarious in a painful way. The textures looked like they were from '97 and the animations and effects.... yeah. Can't see why they bother.
I consider this the best Zelda ever made. It got a lot of hate when it came out and I do understand some of it but still don't agree. One of the highlights of my gaming "career" for sure To each one's own I guess.
It's sad to realize yet again that these games don't really interest me that much. I will probably need to get excited about some of them until PS4 gets a price drop and some interesting games. I still haven't bought 3D world or W101 so maybe the backlog will keep me busy.
Still looking forward to this and I don't care about graphics but it's pretty obvious they had to tone it down. The first footage we got was a lot darker and shiny whereas this is more in the vein of GTA. Still, I hope this will be good and sell well.
Oh, I didn't even know. It would be nice to experience this via VC some day. Also I think RE2 was on N64 as well. Not sure if worth playing but as a curiosity I might check these forgotten gems out
It seems that many games today include a ton of history or fictional lore. But the thing is, I really can't bother to read it all AC3 was my first Assassin's creed and I was overwhelmed by the amount of data. Mass effect too. Brief pieces of info is cool `a la Metroid Prime but walls of text is just too much. Thankfully it's usually optional to read em all. I just wonder who writes and/or gathers all that stuff.
I guess many publishers are now on hiatus when it comes to Wii U. They wait and see if Smash bros. and Mario Kart will boost the sales and if that happens they will hop onboard again. The install base of PS3 and X360 combined is over 160 million and current gen Sony/Xbone about 10 million. They just don't need the 6 million Wii U gamers now :/
I would like to see more stuff filling the void between small indie (puzzle) games and blockbusters. Like budget games with more content and stories. This indie flood is great and all but hardly offers memorable must-have titles. More like play-and-forget. There are exceptions of course but I've already seen enough platformers with unique art styles. Not trying to sound too harsh, just my two cents
Cool. Stick it to the man looks quite creepy I'm still more excited about that survival horror game Forgotten Memories but I have no idea when it's going to arrive. Psychoz Interactive still has no news about that.
I had some fun once with the DS version of some GH. The extra peripheral was neat. I prefer playing a real one though. Anyways, it's kind of sad to see things shutting down.
