#123376 Aliens Colonial Marines Thread

Randy Pitchford is a very smart man, and not just based on his comments about the GamePad.



#129649 Minecraft Wii-U

Posted by Spleenzorio on 14 November 2012 - 10:09 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Oh and by the way "Xbox 360 sucks because they make you pay for online" you couldn't be more wrong, I currently own all 3 current gen consoles and I will tell you now I would be happy to pay double what live costs, it's so much better than ps3 online. I can play the same game side by side online, cod for example I can shoot someone with an entire clip on ps3 and eventually they die, on Xbox however 2-3 shots and they are on the floor. Xbox's online services are 10 times better.


How about that you need to have Xbox Live to watch Netflix, but you don't need to pay additional fees on other consoles :o

Im from aus, i have no idea what netflix is, and either way i don't do anything on consoles other than play games, which is what they were originally intended for.


Netflix is a service that lets you watch movies and tv shows on your PC or gaming console. It's 8 bucks a month for unlimited usage, but you can't use it on Xbox unless you have Xbox Live.

I've added everyone up to here, but most of you guys need to add me also in order for the link to work. (or so it says)



#138492 The official "What games should I get?" Thread

Posted by Spleenzorio on 26 November 2012 - 01:04 PM in Wii U Games and Software

ACIII for sure, such an awesome game. The visuals are fantastic too. I got ZombiU also, and I haven't played it since last Sunday, not a big fan. Scribblenauts is pretty fun too. I have Black Ops 2 on PS3 and it's awesome too, if you're a fan of the franchise plus the multiplayer is always there. Sonic Racing if you want..... a racing game! My advice is if you have a few on your mind and can't decide, DON'T get them all at the same time. I have so many games right now and I've just been playing ACIII and Black Ops 2, plus a bit of the new Borderlands 2 DLC.

Too many games!!



#125346 GameStop Employee: "There will be no Wii U Midnight Launch(es) at GameSto...

Posted by Spleenzorio on 07 November 2012 - 04:40 AM in Wii U Hardware

I got an email showing which EB Games in Canada would be doing midnight launches and early openings.

http://www.ebgames.c...iiu/default.htm

Of course mine isn't doing either :(



#122367 GameStop Employee: "There will be no Wii U Midnight Launch(es) at GameSto...

Posted by Spleenzorio on 29 October 2012 - 06:49 AM in Wii U Hardware

One reason might be that Black Ops 2 comes out the week before Wii U is released, and I'm sure every store will be having a midnight launch for it. It's very rare that they have more than one midnight launch per month, let alone two of them just a few days apart. There's a lot more that goes into midnight launches than just paying employees extra to be there late.

EDIT: Went to EB today, they actually did a midnight launch for ACIII (so did basically every other store), and will do one for Halo 4 and obviously Black Ops 2. I didn't, stupidly, ask about a midnight launch for the Wii U but I'll give them a call during the day.



#115116 ZombiU: What do U think?

Posted by Spleenzorio on 05 October 2012 - 05:58 AM in Wii U Games and Software

EB Expo here in Sydney, Australia. I won some tickets and a VIP pass to play the Wii U at an exclusive event last night.

#114971 ZombiU: What do U think?

Posted by Spleenzorio on 04 October 2012 - 01:56 PM in Wii U Games and Software

After having played a bit of this today I am looking forward to it as it does have a lot of potential, however I did have some issues with the interface namely the touch screen's use while looting, it had some issues with responsiveness which I assume is due to it being resistive. Gameplay-wise it was challenging and atmospheric, I like the concept of having many survivors but I get the impression that they don't build on these character's stories enough. Personally I found having to look down at the gamepad to be annoying.


Where did you get to play it?



#113637 Launch Day Advice

Posted by Spleenzorio on 29 September 2012 - 08:15 AM in Wii U Hardware

Any advice for a foreigner visiting NYC for the first time? I'll be arriving on the 17th and plan on camping out to buy mii a Wii U on launch day.


Show up early! Bring lots of money if you wanna go shopping elsewhere :P



#108877 Launch Day Advice

Posted by Spleenzorio on 16 September 2012 - 07:45 PM in Wii U Hardware

If you are wondering what it looks like to get to the midnight launch late, this is a video I made last year for the MW3 midnight launch at my EB Games. ABout 35 seconds in the employee explains how "pre-ringing" works, which is what I assume they will all be doing at most midnight launches with a ton of people.




#132228 Wii-U box not sealed

Posted by Spleenzorio on 18 November 2012 - 10:14 AM in Wii U Hardware

Mine wasn't sealed either but everything was in there. No big deal.



#133940 Is your gamepad rattling?

Posted by Spleenzorio on 19 November 2012 - 05:57 PM in Wii U Hardware

It's the ABXY buttons that make this sound. If you hold your GamePad so the screen is facing the floor and lightly tap the ABXY buttons you will see they are "loose" and that is what the shaking sound is. Or if you hold them all down and shake the the GamePad then the noise stops, except for the things inside the controller that need to move.



#134226 Is it normal for a white light to be on when a game is inserted?

Posted by Spleenzorio on 19 November 2012 - 11:31 PM in Wii U Hardware

The white light signifies that you have been chosen for a super secret prize!!!!

Nah, it just let's you know there's already a game in there and not to try jamming another disc in.



#127160 O.o My wii U Deluxe , black ops 2 and Zombi U were just shipped!

Posted by Spleenzorio on 10 November 2012 - 10:45 AM in General Gaming

Oh yeah? I'm already playing Smash Bros Universe and it's siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick!



#115161 Launch day: What are you buying?

Posted by Spleenzorio on 05 October 2012 - 10:02 AM in Wii U Hardware

Deluxe Bundle, ACIII, ZombiU, NSMBU. Then other stuff around Christmas after I get paid :P



#115184 Launch day: What are you buying?

Posted by Spleenzorio on 05 October 2012 - 11:59 AM in Wii U Hardware

Before launch -
Wii Motion Plus remote
Nunchuk

At launch -
Zombi U bundle
New Super Mario Bros. U

After launch -
PDP Wireless Afterglow headset (depending on reviews)
Pikmin 3
Screen protector for the main gamepad
Wii Fit U + board


Dumb question, but was there any word that current USB headsets would work with the Wii U if you plugged it into the back of the console? I have the Razer Megalodon and if I could I'd just use that.



#126479 Where the crap is sonic?

Posted by Spleenzorio on 09 November 2012 - 06:45 AM in Wii U Games and Software

2013, huh

Figured they might. I was hoping for one more year of a hiatus at least for 3D Sonic. Hopefully the team is well rested enough for the next phase. And hopefully it is not shamelessly inspired from Skylanders. Don't do it, Sonic Team!


As someone who's been kinda curious about Skylanders lately, I'd be interested if there was a Sonic type of game like that. Of course a much more longer, in-depth game aimed at older audiences that doesn't have to necessarily include collecting figures. But heck I collect Transformers, what's a few more toys here and there :P



#122832 Where the crap is sonic?

Posted by Spleenzorio on 30 October 2012 - 01:50 PM in Wii U Games and Software

As the biggest Sega and Sonic fanboy on these forums..and most likely on the East Coast....I agree.


Oh, then you wear this to work like I do?

#113681 Are you concerned about if the Wii U can breaks because of overuse?

Posted by Spleenzorio on 29 September 2012 - 12:20 PM in Wii U Hardware

Only problem I've ever had with Nintendo products is my Wii GPU overheated and there's tons of pixelation whenever I play games on it, and on my DS Lite there's a small part on the left side of the touch screen that doesn't respond to any touch input. So I'm hoping for a cooling fan or somethin for the Wii U.

Also yeah, I've been through 4 Xbox 360s due to red rings and once they sent me a European version so I couldn't watch DVD movies on it because of the wrong region :/



#126508 Halo 4. So good because they copied metroid?

Posted by Spleenzorio on 09 November 2012 - 07:38 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Guys it's obviously because Master Chief is Samus' brother!



#114754 New Super Mario Bros. U or Rayman Legends?

Posted by Spleenzorio on 03 October 2012 - 04:27 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Hello ladies and gents. I'm in a real pickle. After reviewing both of these games I can't decide which one I want to get at launch. I know, the easiest answer is both! But due to me being only partially employed and having other games/Transformers to buy, I can only get one of these two at launch.

So I figure I'd ask some other Nintendo fans what their thoughts were. Basically which game do you think will be more enjoyable as a single player game, as well as a multiplayer game? I have lots of little cousins who always wanna play multiplayer with me, which is a lot of fun for everyone. But I also want a single player experience that I won't get tired of after a few hours of playing.

Also, I haven't heard much more about this feature of Rayman, is it still in the game? (skip to 1:27)




#115148 New Super Mario Bros. U or Rayman Legends?

Posted by Spleenzorio on 05 October 2012 - 08:26 AM in Wii U Games and Software

The only thing I'm really worried about is that it will be pretty much the same thing as the other New Super Mario Bros games before it.
