I'm hoping it's dead in a ditch somewhere with Randy Pitchford burrying it, before getting caught by the local sherif, and then he kills the sherif and is a man now hunted by the law for tripple homicide, murder of the sherif, murder of a game, and murder of a franchise (but let's face it there are MULTIPLE suspects for that one).

 

However this thread is more of a theoroy page on what happened to the Wii U version.

 

My theory is that the Wii U version wasn't even made to begin with. The fiasco at Gearbox probably only just managed to get the PC and PS360 versions out on time. I reckon they hadn't even started on the Wii U version because Randy Pitchford is a god damn lying son of a ************ so with a game that didn't even begin development, and the fact that everyone knows the game SUCKS WRETCHED MONKEY TESTICALS Sega dropped the Wii U version (we dodged a bullet people! probably one of the only times NOT having a a game on your console goes for plus points in getting one) as no-one would buy it.

 

That's my theory on what's happened. The only way I see this getting resolved is if they basically build the game again from the ground up, with a new plot and with a different development company who can be trusted not to spend dev money on other projects.

Sega has stated its not dead and will launch before the end of this month( Wii U launch period). another rumor stated Wii U version wont be a flaming mess the other version were and that its the superior graphical version... so we will see soon enough.

Aren't you overreacting a bit. It seems like you have anger inside you towards Sega and Gearbox. Its unwarranted in my opinion especially as its only a game and there are far more important things in this world. If the Wii U version gets released and its good then all well and good. If its released and poor or not released at all then so be it. Its not worth getting so upset over. There are and will be other quality games to play.

We will have to wait and see - my local gamestop told me they canceled every ones pre-orders because the game isn't being released anymore. Thats one of many stories I've heard...so who knows.

gearbox unloaded development onto another studio. at the time of the unload the wiiU version was suposinly doing more than the other versions(with the exception of framerate do to some leaks). best case senario is the wiiU developer saw how bad it sucked so tried to fix it. worst case is it had a smaller team so fell behind in development.

It was most certainly on Wii U because in the dev interview at E3 they showed it

It's been delayed indefinently tho

I think it should be pushed back until at least August so that all of the DlC packs will be released and they can be included on the disc for us, along with PC assets in game and little to no issues

I am the foot. I do not like you. You smother me with socks and shoes, then step on me thousands of times a day.

To much to ask for since the console isn't selling well.

I don't think Sega are the guilty party here. Gearbox appears to have screwed them over by taking their money and using that money for other projects. The aliens game looks to be under-developed and very weak compared to other gearbox games. The wii u doesn't need this game if it will be to the same standard as the other formats.

I hope this version never comes out. I was actually looking forward to this game a lot, and I always used it to defend the Wii U, saying that the developer was going to make this the best looking version. Even if they use PC Assets it wouldn't matter, because the PC version apparently doesn't even run with DX9 until someone modded the game.
