#58597 Crystal Dynamics explains why Tomb Raider isn't coming to Wii U

Posted by Randomite on 30 January 2012 - 06:39 AM in Wii U Games and Software

How I read the quote was they are not porting the game over. To me that doesnt necessarily mean the game isn't coming out to the Wii U, as the quote stated if they'd build a Wii U version of the game it would be built differently to the current PS3/360 build. I personally think this is just Crystal Dynamics waiting to see how well the Wii U is recieved before committing to the system.

I haven't read the article in the link, but I assume the part quoted is the main focus point.

#46026 Wii U specs leaked?

Posted by Randomite on 09 December 2011 - 09:33 AM in Wii U Hardware

i so agree with you here. if nintendo had made this move with Wii it would have gotten more life with it. also sony would have had no shot at releasing ps move. nintendo would have sold over 100 million wii's already


I do happen to disagree, I think if Nintendo went down the power route (despite having the Wii mote) I feel they would of struggled. One of the big pluses for the Wii was it was affordable (in my opinion) and adding the likes of HDMI components and making the console run at 720p would of ramped the price up, thus making the Wii somewhat less appealing.



#46025 Home Cooked or Take out?

Posted by Randomite on 09 December 2011 - 09:22 AM in The Café

Home cooked, even more so now that I can cook proper meals (by proper meals I mean from scratch and not just out the freezer cooking).

Posted by Randomite on 08 December 2011 - 10:55 AM in The Café

In my opinion it makes no difference who the top 10 poster is or who has more reputation, at the end of the day this is a discussion forum and as long as I am able to discuss Nintendo and other such gaming, the other things don't really matter.



#45601 Wii U Wishlist

Posted by Randomite on 06 December 2011 - 04:08 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I would like SEGA to make a Valkyria Chronicles game for the Wii U...It was very under appreciated on the PS3 and I personally don't feel a game this Epic should be left on the hand held (PSP) system.



#45599 Wii U Price Discussion

Posted by Randomite on 06 December 2011 - 04:03 PM in Wii U Hardware

It depends on what they reveal it to have under the hood so to speak, if it is not powerful by much (in comparison to PS3 and Xbox 360) I would expect between £225 and £250...I feel they have to be competitive and lure 360 and PS3 fans away if the rumours are true and both Sony and Microsoft are looking towards the next generation.

It was a problem which SEGA had trouble with for the Dreamcast, while it was competitively priced, people opted to wait for the PS2,



#45534 Best RPG? Round 3: Tales of Symphonia and Skies of Arcadia

Posted by Randomite on 06 December 2011 - 06:40 AM in General Gaming

I voted for SOA, the VMU integration made that game a classic. Something I feel was missing from the GC port.



#45533 SKyrim vs Zelda skyward sword

Posted by Randomite on 06 December 2011 - 06:35 AM in General Gaming

stick placement the same, d pad the same spot shoulder buttons act the same except for lb and abxy buttons are the only noticable difference .


Thats like saying the Wii copied the Dreamcast because the Samba Di Amigo Marraccas had motion control. It's a rather generic controller layout, even the Dreamcast had a similar layout (without the second analogue stick).



#45456 Best RPG? Round 3: Tales of Symphonia and Skies of Arcadia

Aren't both Skies of Arcadia the same game but Legend having a little extra content added?

EXAMPLE- gamecube to xbox 360 controller


I'm sorry how is the 360 controller anything like the Gamecube controller?



#44368 fanboy aside... could ps3 run zelda hd demo

Posted by Randomite on 29 November 2011 - 09:30 AM in General Gaming

http://andriasang.co...shareholder_qa/

There you go. :)


Forgive me if I am wrong but aren't shareholder meetings there to appease those who have shares in said company? I'm also not convinced fully by that article, mainly due to the developers are saying it. The reason I say this is because it would be a inhouse company who have made the HD demo, who I doubt would of had a chance with the other development kits from other companies...

It does look good though, I'm just not 100% convinced that this is legitimate and is just hype to the shareholders.



#44367 Decent chance of Tomb Raider ending up on Wii U

Posted by Randomite on 29 November 2011 - 09:17 AM in Wii U Games and Software

What I'd like to see Square-Enix push is the Lara Croft and the Guardian of the Light Spin off into a franchise in it's own right. It's a decent XBLA game and I do think they could push it more as a franchise in its own right.



#44365 its just a rumor.... but nintendo should jump on this

Posted by Randomite on 29 November 2011 - 09:05 AM in Wii U Hardware

Firstly, I don't know whether Cliffy B being a Nintendo fan would have any bearing on whether Epic Games would make exclusives for the Nintendo console, Tim Sweeney being the CEO of Epic Games and all that jazz.

Secondly, Epic Games would be (though not necessarily directly) working on the Nintendo Wii U with games running on the Unreal Engine made by Epic Games.

I would imagine that Epic Games would like to see how their technology is recieved by the fanbase first before acdtually venturing into an exclusive for the Wii U.



#43105 -

Posted by Randomite on 22 November 2011 - 10:30 AM in General Gaming

I thought the population in general saw gaming positively already...Be it through (for lack of a better word) casual games on facebook...However if you are talking about the whole violent videogames debate, it will never be accepted, not until the age ratings on the cases are actually enforced by the retailers and parents obide by these age restrictions also...It's all fair and well a parent blaming a violent game on a kids behaviour, it's easy...However if they really didn't want their kids playing these sorts of games, they should not buy the children the game and also know how to restrict the console for if the off chance they decide to borrow the game from one of their friends...

Of course I am only looking at the from the extreme of...Kid does something wrong/Parent blames video game angle.



#42867 Wii U + EA's Origin? Valve trying to get into Wii U?

Posted by Randomite on 20 November 2011 - 04:35 PM in Wii U Hardware

The one problem with EA (and I am basing this on my experience with my 360) is that they shut their servers down, sometimes a mere couple of months after the game has been released (Army of Two: The 40th Day springs to mind). They really need to do something to that in my opinion...



#42866 Super Mario 3D Land promoting animal cruelty?

Posted by Randomite on 20 November 2011 - 04:30 PM in General Gaming

The one thing I do find funny is PETA aimed at the most obscure reference to try and rally the anti video game activists, I don't support them but had they have picked up on the fact Mario jumps on turtles then maybe they'd have stirred the pot enough to cause uproar from the people they are aiming to grab into joining their fight against animal cruelty. Instead they have made themselves look foolish and as such backtrack.



#42768 im not a graphics whore..... but

Posted by Randomite on 19 November 2011 - 07:24 PM in General Gaming

I happen to disagree with the OP in terms of using every ounce of power to make games look good. The reason I say this is because there are games which look amazing without using the full power provided by the current consoles. A prime example and one of my personal favourite games would be Limbo...I think a good art style far outweighs fancy ultra realistic graphics. That however is just my opinion.



#42763 Your Favourite RPG? POLL IS OPEN!! Round 1: The Best Final Fantasy Se...

Posted by Randomite on 19 November 2011 - 07:13 PM in General Gaming

Lost Odyssey (Xbox 360)
Skies of Arcadia (Dreamcast)
Valkyria Chronicles (PS3) It's more a tactical RPG but an RPG none the less and I dare say the best game I have played this console generation.



#42494 Wii U launch and Rockstar

Posted by Randomite on 18 November 2011 - 08:59 AM in Wii U Hardware

I respectfully disagree. nintendo needs to make this happen. without a true 3rd party hardcore title in the launch window that ps360 doesnt have and cant run.... the so call hardcore nintendo is trying to win back is going to laugh at this console. just my opinion.


The thing is, I don't think we will see a third party exclusive from launch from companies such as Rockstar, Bethesda etc etc. The reason being these companies have had commercial sucess on the 360 and PS3, it would be a huge risk to put all their eggs into one basket so to speak. That being said I can see SEGA or Capcom possibly doing such a thing, mainly due in part to their sucess on the Wii with exclusive games...Which brings me to the point where I'd sugest Virtual Fighter VI...I say this is for the following reasons.

1) There is still a massive void in market for a fighting game on the Nintendo console. Don't get me wrong I like Smash Brothers but in terms of depth the VF series is one of the most deepest fighting games (if not the deepest) created in most recent times.
2) There is still a huge VF following around the world, myself included...Should the game be made exclusive to one console I am fairly certain the following will also be inclined to pick up a console.



#42378 Wii U launch and Rockstar

Posted by Randomite on 16 November 2011 - 05:18 PM in Wii U Hardware

Please tell me I am not the only one who would rather see a sequel to Bully, don't get me wrong I do like GTA I just think Bully is a great game and if they use the same engine to power GTA IV or whatever happens to be new at the time I really do think it will be an amazing alternative to GTA.
