Gives us a higher probability of THQ games on the U. Great news! Was really scared EA might swoop in...

Apocalypse Update, 20-12-2012, 4:05 PM, Netherlands



THE COWS HAVE MULTIPLIED. I REPEAT, THE COWS HAVE MULTIPLIED.

Zombie apocalypse, that way I can see just how well ZombiU payed off for me.

It would suck here in Australia. We have no guns; only cricket bats. And you know how tedious that is...

Bowser and the Koopalings reek havoc.

Hi peeps,i came across this on the net and thought some of you may be interested

Hello anyone that might end up reading this, my name (at least on the internet) is ThatGuy! I thought I'd join this forum to prep for when I do finally get a Wii U in the next week. I don't have much else to say, other than that this looks like a pretty nice community. I think I'll be happy to be a part of it!

So, this isn't going to be a technical review of any sort, but I thought I'd give you my impressions on the game.

Graphically speaking ZombiU isn't very impressive, although it does not look bad at all, it might not have the best textures and detail in the world, but the whole look of the game is smooth and you won't see jagged edges in games and it isn't such an eyesore compared to other console games I've played, it just looks very simple and clean, I think it looks very nice when the light shines on your eyes and you see all the dust on your screen.

You rely a lot on sound in this game and it's good for the most part, zombies sound menacing and your characters pants and mumbles nervously during, after fights and when they are scavenging for supplies or looking through their bag. One gripe I have with the same is that your character feels the need to grunt with every swing of his bat, you may say that this is for immersion, but no one screams at the top of their lungs every time they swing a cricket bat, and if you're yelling so loud it looks stupid when the other zombies are nearby oblivious to you.

Now, for the most part you'll be using the cricket bat which can range from 1 (very rarely) to at least 10 swings, most will take about five though, this isn't as annoying as many other reviews make it out to be, although as I said earlier the sounds will really start to piss you off, especially if you're using a female, you don't want your parents around, they might think you're doing something a little bit more naughty than playing ZombiU, that's for sure. The game took me about 15 hours on my first playthrough, but it could probably range from 5-10 hours if you're good.

The replay value in this game is great, it feels different every time you play through as you die in different areas, end up with different weapons at endgame and different situations always arise depending on the path which you choose to take.

Multiplayer is unfortunately exclusively offline, although it is a ton of fun, one player with the gamepad is the zombie master, this person must spawn zombies and try to kill the survivor who must fight them off while they use the pro controller/wii remote on the TV screen, ammo and supplies will be scavenged around and it's a capture the flag type of game, only with zombies.

Overall though, this game is my favourite survival horror game at the moment, it is brilliant, I can see myself playing it time and time again, last night I blitzed through the game with someone else, we spent 12 hours beating the game and after that we wanted more, so we jumped on the multiplayer and had a blast.

The cover of the British Anthem just sounded beautiful when the credits rolled, so much so that I find myself listening to it while browsing the web and playing other games and the ending really made me think.

This game is a worthy purchase and in my opinion a must own for any Wii U owner.

ZombiU 2, we need it, this could be an amazing franchise if some things are tweaked and Ubisoft knows what the fans want!

It's the install base that's the problem here. Why Konami didn't just outright say it is beyond me.

Ah, so you took it out hardcore, by the way you made it sound you were only taking a peek. (Also, I asked this silly question because in the past I have had people not even know they could remove the plastic film on their other electronics). Yep, that right there does not look to good. No one used harsh chemicals on it or spilled anything on? Because that sort of looks like what can happen and warranties can be void from some companies due to this. If it is a local store (non-electronics based overall) they may just take it right back due to no kind of store policy with no questions asked.

What amazes me is Nintendo makes these boxes where you can easily slip the stuff all back in and slide it right back out. No bloody sealing tap on the taps either. You could have even got one that the store put right back on the shelf from a return and not really know it. (Of course, this is if the person takes the time to make it look like new on putting it back in the box) (Shrugs)

So anyone else with this issue put a blow dryer or heater next to it and it should resolve your problem. Just from humidity.

Be real careful with a hair dryer as it could cause damage. Use it on low and possibly cool blow to be on the safe side. As far as humidity goes, if you get it that bad to effect your electronic devices in your house hold, it may be time for a dehumidifier.

You opened a brand new never opened up Wii U? If so what your describing may be the plastic they put on electronic devices to help protect them.

Heres a picture of what I'm talking about.



found a thread on neogaf which stated its from humidity and that it can be dried out. So I put it up to my heater on high setting and its starting to dissapear.

Don't be stupid and lazy.... you ALWAYS have to wait until you get to the home menu to eject a disc... seriously what is up with some people?! No shat that's going to happen!

Nintendo has explained the restrictions on Wii U eShop 18+ content.
Last week Eurogamer confirmed that Nintendo of Europe blocks access to 18+ content on the Wii U eShop at certain times of day.
We were unable to buy 18-rated content, such as ZombiU and Assassin's Creed 3, during the day time. This, it emerged, was because access to content Nintendo deems unsuitable to minors is restricted to the 11pm to 3am time window on these shores.
This morning Nintendo confirmed to Eurogamer that these restrictions are in place because of German regulations - regulations Nintendo of Europe is bound by because it is based there.
“At Nintendo we always aim to provide a safe gaming experience for fans of all ages and ensure that we comply with applicable legal age restriction requirements across Europe,” a Nintendo spokesperson told Eurogamer.
“Legal age restriction requirements vary across a number of European countries. Since Nintendo of Europe is based in Germany, Nintendo eShop is complying with German youth protection regulation which therefore applies to all our European markets. Under German law, content rated 18+ must be made available only at night.
“Therefore the accessibility of 18+ content in Nintendo eShop is limited to [USK: 22:00 UTC until 4:00 UTC] [PEGI: 23:00 UTC until 3:00 UTC].”
USK is the abbreviation of Unterhaltungssoftware Selbstkontrolle, the Entertainment Software Self-Regulation Body responsible for computer game ratings in Germany. On these shores we're governed by PEGI, so can only buy and access 18+ content on the Wii U eShop from 11pm to 3am.

Seems a tad bit too fair, but the law is the law, ya know? Hopefully in the near future this issue is resolved.
