Assassin's Creed:Revelations was my first game in the series(and first game on PS3) but it came with the original Assassin's Creed. The original game was boring but Revelations was cool. Anyway yeah don't buy it day one, save moneys. I bought revelations for full price and...there was no noticeable downside to it but I still probably should have waited.

 Haha I knew first day sounded awkward. Day one. Day one. 

 I'm definitely going to wait on AC but I am giving Wii U games major benefit of the doubt.  I caved and bought Lego City Undercover.  The writing is good. But haven't really jumped in to give it judgement yet.  I can't wait to increase my Wii U library lol.  I really want to have a glorious DVD rack full of AAA (triple A in fun for me to play) Wii U games.

 Does this not deserve it's own thread? I would have thought there would be one. I would have used Y2Kev's but I wanted a spoiler free thread.

 I just bought mine from Best Buy.  Was hoping it would be stocked at Superstore (I'm Canadian) so I could use my PC points but it wasn't on the shelves yet unfortunately.  Then again, it wasn't on the shelves in Best Buy either I had to ask for it.

About to go on a mini marathon here I think. 

 Who else bought it day one?

I'm surprised you guys didn't like ac3. I thought it was stunning.

 I haven't played anything in the AC series.  AC4 would be my first.

 Curious if you played AC3 on the Wii U.

 I have a credit card so Wii patience.  I never need real money anymore.  That's for suckers. 

I opened a line of credit specifically for my hobbies, including gaming. 

 Dangerous! But must be oh so satisfying.

Yup! Better controls than on normie-consoles.

 Well that's promising.  Controls are pretty much tied for number one as far as things that are important to me in a game.  I will only last about 30 seconds before I quit if they are awkward.

 How often do you load in this game? Once per mission?

  Can you post a link for me to the details of what we're missing? (anyone)

It loads initially on the plane which is like the hub, and then it loads the mission and then you are set until the mission is done.

So although loading is bad it's infrequent enough not to ruin the game.

 Thanks.

 For someone who is itching to play a shooter and doesn't want to get one on the PC.  Will this game scratch that itch or should I wait for CoD: Ghosts?

 edit:  Like if I played, I would want to be a sniper rather than the guy slitting throats, but I would slit throats when necessary.

I feel like the only person that couldn't really get into Lego City.

 So far I am in the same boat.  But I guess it is exactly what people said it is.  A humorous storyline and lots of collection.

 Beautiful.

 Just tried the demo.  This game might be a little too action packed for me to love it.  But, I will likely end up getting it just because I'm a collector whore and want all the Wii U exclusives.

You can play it as a shooter, although its no COD. You can stay in the shadows taking people out though if that's your thing. That's the 'panther' style of play.

 Thanks bud.

 For the most part no.   I feel slightly bad for anyone who bought a Wii U about a month ago and can't return it to stores and wait for the price drop/bundles if that's what they want to do.  Even in my case though having bought it in June I feel like I got well worth the $50 out of it since then and would rather keep mine than sell it/rebuy it at a lower price in a month even if I could recoup the entire cost.  I am a huge Zelda fan and the design on the gamepad is nice but something about a solid sleek system where everything matches is more appealing to me.

 Any news on that front?

 LAME! I guess I will have to get a real drum kit... but the immediate gratification isn't there.

 I uninstalled them a while back and now when I search it tells me they aren't on the E-shop.  I can search through my downloaded software and I see them but again if I click download it brings up an error.

 Anyone know what is going on? Is doing a factory reset the only way to get them back??

 Reformatted it... and now I can't connect to eShop at all. Sadface. Error 107-3058 I think.
