#129897 ZombieU - will they have zombie kids?

Posted by backudog on 15 November 2012 - 09:43 AM in Wii U Games and Software

...if they added Justin Bieber as a zombie I could wallop, I'd buy this game in a heartbeat. O_O


and if zombieber constantly respawned so you could keep killing the annoying undead lil' talent void, that would be even better!

Posted by backudog on 03 April 2013 - 02:13 PM in General Gaming

Earlier today i thought i sensed a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced, now I know what it was!

Also...
Disney. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy....other than EA.....

#225173 Which Next Gen Console(s) Are You Getting?

Posted by backudog on 21 June 2013 - 07:36 PM in General Gaming

Got a wiiu and preordered a ps4. Was going to stick with Microsoft and get an X1, but they screwed up with their DRM announcements etc originally so chose ps4, even thier recent 180 regarding DRM etc wont change my mind now. Also there were more games that I liked the look of on ps4 than the X1.




#124175 Gamesmaster mag wiiU launch special. pretty positive.

Posted by backudog on 04 November 2012 - 06:05 AM in General Gaming

Sounds really goodish


I realise i haven't made the article sound all that positive, lol, but after reading it, my overall feeling was that it WAS positive and that any worries they brought up were only ones we've all probably had too. am in the process of getting the article uploaded so y'all can read it for yourselves.

#124134 Gamesmaster mag wiiU launch special. pretty positive.

Posted by backudog on 03 November 2012 - 10:10 PM in General Gaming

I just received my xmas 2012 issue of Gamesmaster magazine, which contains a wiiu launch special, with reviews of the console & gamepad and previews of alll the launch / launch window titles, ( I would have scanned the pages for you guys, but dont have a scanner lol, so will type an overview for you), overall they seem pretty positive about the U and its controller ( the gamepad holds endless possibilities and at only " a gentle 500g in weIght - about half a guinea pig - DON'T ASK, enables 10 hour gaming marathons without your wrists falling off") and the games. they do voice concerns that once sony and microsoft launch thier new consoles the U might get left behind a bit,

"As for the threat of a brutish new playstation or xbox steamrolling Wii U into the ground? well, yes, that could happen. On the tech front, its 98% guaranteed that rival boxes will humiliate the wiiU. Our question is, does it matter? Wii U will likely occupy the same position the wii held this gen: not as shiny, but a safe haven for devs lacking the AAA budgets needed to step up to a power hungry next gen."

They also voice concern over AAA suport, suggesting that "studios with the cash to embrace the new machines from sony microsoft - the ubisofts,EAs, and Rockstars of the world, may have no need of the U, much like they largely had no need for the wii". although they do state that the U's "rich launch catalogue shows the healing has begun, but all it would take is a shiny new ps4 or 720 to unpick the scabs, hey, at least we can dab on some first party savlon".

They jokingly claim that 16 months after its initial reveal, the U is still a nightmare to write about, largely because it doesnt behave like any other console (which they do say is a good thing), and that "the more we learn, the madder it seems: a console that doesnt need a tv to work, a social network to rival twitter, a universal remote for your telly...someone at nintendo has been overdoing the dairylea before bedtime"

they end the console review thing by saying despite all of that if you put a U under your tv on the 30th you'll find it a dream to play.

Games reviews / previews are positive overall, (Nintendo Land gets 82%, with each of the mini games in it recieving between 3 and 5 out of 5 stars, NSMBU gets 82%, they also rate the intergration of the gamepad into the multi format titles, and out of the 12 listed
there are :
3x 5out of 5,(Batman, Darksiders 2 andTrine 2)
2x 4 out of 5, (AC3 and Mass Effect 3)
3x 3 out of 5, (FIFA 13 Sonic all star racing, COD; BOPS2 )
3x 2 out of 5, (Skylanders, Ninja Gaiden 3 Epic mickey 2)
and a 1 out of 5 (NBA 2K13)

ZombieU (my preciousssss lol) gets a 4 out of 5 on thier "Thrill-o-meter" with the only negative being that "the touch screen isnt as reliable as it could be. Is this endemic of its general quality?"
Aliens colonial marines also gets a 4 out of 5 on the Thrill-o-meter, the negative being "the guns are a tad quiet. we want them so loud it almost bursts our eardrums".
They have a few concerns over Lego City Undercover (another game im looking forward to and 3 out of 5 on the thrill-o-meter) saying that at the moment driving in the game is a tad tame "TT has recreated Lego's weightless plastic vehicles a little too accurately, the poor little things pootle along slowly, with all the handling of a sports car engineered from plastic rectangles. Accurate,maybe, but not terribly exciting". also at the moment they say there is some horrible pop-in throughout the game).they admit Its still early and there is time to iron out those niggles and if TT do then the game could be huge.

If you're in the u.k. then pick up the xmas issue when it hits the stores on the 6th, its woth a read. im posting this for u.s. and other forumites who maybe cant get the mag where they..erm..be at?



.JUST REALISED THIS MIGHT BE BETTER IN THE GENERAL OR NEWS SECTION? IF A MOD WANTS TO MOVE IT, PLEASE DO SO.

#153411 Failed systems that had potential

Posted by backudog on 29 December 2012 - 05:08 AM in General Gaming

Jaguar, cd-i , dreamcast and Amiga cd32 are ones that spring to mind, never really had a chance to shine. Jaguar had some cool games, and the cd add on might've helped it but was released too late that nobody actually noticed it was out there, cd-i was woefully underpowered when it was released, Philips never really knew what to do with it, again some cool games for it (Burn Cycle was cool), the dream cast had loads of cool titles but people seemed to be more into Sony by then so it's life was cut short, and the cd32 could've been so much more, it could do 3d graphics (kinda) & had a fair bit of grunt under the hood for the time, but all devs did was release standard Amiga 600 and 1200 games on it with maybe a fancy intro tacked onto it! I owned each of those systems and loved them all, shame they didn't last a bit longer.



#148451 Surge protector , UPS or line conditioner?

Posted by backudog on 15 December 2012 - 10:28 PM in Wii U Hardware

Not sure why you would think a different HDMI cable would give a better picture. HDMI cables are all the same quality whether they cost 99p/99 cents or £100/$100.


I've been telling people this for AGES! It was confirmed a while ago during a test on some gadget programme on tv, they tested identical top end HDTV's running an identical bluray movie on identical top end players, all the tvs and players were set up the same (picture settings etc) and they tested hdmi cables ranging from a fiver up to 150 quid, i think it was, and they stated there was no difference, or if there was it was pretty much unnoticable.....i still buy reasonable priced ones though lol, just in case, but saying that my folks hdtv n bluray player are connected via a 99p hdmi cable and it looks great!
