#169220 Even Rayman Legends Creator Protesting Wii U Delay

Posted by backudog on 09 February 2013 - 10:06 AM in Wii U Games and Software

What annoys me, and I know this is a different publisher/developer whatever, is that aliens colonial marines is launched on Tuesday but only the ps360 & PC versions Wiiu owners gotta wait. Funny how Sega or whoever aren't doing the same thing as ubi eh? Oh wait. No its not. Just wtf is going on?!?!

Be nice to see some WiiU actual gameplay footage instead of the same vids as the 360 n ps3 trailers out there.

And by the looks of that trailer you get a free chase mccain figure with the game too! (It says so on the box at the end of the vid) Awesome!! Was a definite buy for me from the moment it was announced.

#166236 just got ac3 great game!

Posted by backudog on 03 February 2013 - 07:27 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Regardless of whether it was new or second hand it still would have been traded in as that is how CEX works. Everything they sell new or second hand has been traded in for cash or exchange. That's a pretty good price for a pro controller whether its new or second hand though. I got mine bundled with the Zombie U Premium Deluxe Wii U console.

oh,didn't realise that, I assumed mine was new coz it still had the club Nintendo points card in it unused. Which was nice.

#166134 GBA Eshop wishlist

Posted by backudog on 02 February 2013 - 10:24 PM in General Gaming

Why should there only be specific titles? I wanna see ALL gba titles appear. Didn't have my gba for long back in the day so missed out on loads. The same goes for GameCube titles do em all!....I'm semi kidding of course,we don't wanna see any naff titles appearing but def think they should consider some of the lesser known maybe not quite as popular titles too,just to give us a wider choice.

#166132 Polygon Rumor: Xbox 720 revealing in March or April, might have subsidized versi

Posted by backudog on 02 February 2013 - 10:16 PM in General Gaming

I'll be getting a 720 or whatever they call it,simply coz I enjoyed my experiences with xbox, the 360 and xboxlive, although I'll be keeping a close eye on the ps4 too but 720 is the one for me..... Ah who am I kidding? I'm gonna end up getting both like I did this gen! Lol.

Just picked up AC3 at my local cex store for £32(new copy not a traded in one)! I've never played an assassin's creed game and so far I'm loving it, but I'm so glad I held off getting the digital version off the eshop. Also picked up a pro controller for £18!!! Think they had priced it wrong lol.still thier problem not mine bwahahahahaha!!!

#155455 Zombie U save question....

Posted by backudog on 02 January 2013 - 10:12 PM in Wii U Games and Software Help

I was going to do that, but in the end my nephew AND my niece (17 & 13) just watched me playing, i tell ya, this game is a blast when you got other people watching you who have never seen this game b4 lol, we had the lights off, curtains drawn, nice n dark with the sound going through my surround set up, and they were jumping & screaming at the tv when i was being attacked by the zombies in buck palace,(AAAAHH! RUNRUN!! ITS COMING! KILL IT! KILL IT! ITS KILLING YOU! AAAH NO THERES ANOTHER ONE!!) and really getting nervous and creeped out when i wasn't (aaah what was that noise? check your radar! etc etc) and afterwards both agreed the game is creepy scary as hell, and they both wanted it and a wiiu, you're welcome nintendo and Ubisoft. didnt even get to try the muliplayer part lol.

#154802 Assassins Creed 3 £54.99 on eshop?!?!?!?

Posted by backudog on 01 January 2013 - 10:02 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Thats what i've done, not bought it. no way im paying that for it!

And you're surprised by this why ? Honestly you must have been living under a rock for the past few years. This isn't the first time a digital version of a retail game costs more then the physical copy. It's typical of most digital retail games on all console platforms. I'm not saying its right or justifiable but It's normal. Apart from the fact that publishers don't want to p**s off the retailers there are certain market forces that dictate retail prices that cannot affect digital downloads. Besides you're also paying for the convenience. As you say you can't get into town and they're offering you a way to get it right away. Anyway where have you seen it in local retail for that price. Everywhere I've looked it's at least £45.

i kinda mistyped what i meant, i should have said i can pick it up instore cheaper and seen it online for 35 quid (actually looking again its 36.99 but near enough...ish, lol). http://www.play.com/...oduct.html?ob=1

#154712 Assassins Creed 3 £54.99 on eshop?!?!?!?

Posted by backudog on 01 January 2013 - 01:19 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Was gonna download AC3 from the ESHOP today, but at that price they can feck right off! You can get it for £35 in some stores or online if you shop around, I was only doing eshop coz no buses are running today near me so I can't get into town, why Ninty why?? Who's going to be daft enough to dl it at that price? At this rate I'm never gonna be getting any wiiu games off the eshop. Was looking forward to playing that n'all.

#154691 zombiU new game.

Posted by backudog on 31 December 2012 - 09:53 PM in Wii U Games and Software Help

Good idea, think that's what I'll do, you really need to start from the beginning to really appreciate ZombiU, that and I want to see how he copes with the opening no weapons just run scene, he's probably gonna die straight off lol.

#154554 Zombie U save question....

Posted by backudog on 31 December 2012 - 01:58 PM in Wii U Games and Software Help

My nephew is coming over on wednesday, naturally i want to show off the wiiU and he'll undoubtably want to play ZombiU, and i think he'll need to play from the beginning to get the full experience, so if i let him start a new game from scratch, will it delete or overwrite MY game save? or can u have more than one game saved at a time? Ive already died about 6 times and have only got upto being sent to buck house, and i don't want to have to start again myself from scratch!

I'm pretty sure mine only took about half an hour, mabe less? My download speed for most things is 7mb/sec usually though so that probably helped.

#153417 What's the cheapest game you ever bought at retail?

Posted by backudog on 29 December 2012 - 05:23 AM in General Gaming

Bought Risen on the 360 for 3 quid, even though it sucked I thought for that price I'd give it a go. Also got 2 games and a controller for the price of a stamp back when Microsoft dropped the price of the original Xbox, they offered peeps who had bought one full price b4 the drop their choice of 2 games and a controller to make up for it, was worth about 150 quid ish I think? That counts...technically lol!

#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.

Awwwww lol

I have just ordered the Limited Edition from Zavii for £45

Am i going mad or does the limited edition version have a later release date than the standard edition on the zavii site? Is that normal?

Also, just preordered the limited editon from tesco site using code TD-PRGM to get 5 quid off the price! 34 pounds instead of 39 isn't to be sniffed at!
