They are well known....For being a joke.
I just beat world 2 in the game, and I have to say that this is bordering on being the most FUN I had in a videogame in my almost 30 years of being a gamer. I hate the rampant overuse of the term "Next-Gen" but this game is truly Next-Gen, not only in graphics, but also in Game-Play which is the most difficult task to achieve for a developer. Insane amounts of Polish permeating everything from visuals to performance to control, jumping, speed and inertia with absolutely unbelievable...
I've said it once and I'll say it again Destructoid and its former associates(some reviewers in other websites do this too) are trying to mimic the attitudes and writing styles of Film critics in being more subjective and overly unnecessarily artistic than being objective and, subsequently, often lower the scores of some deserving games and elevate the scores of some undeserving games, and in trying so hard to achieve that, they risk appearing as a complete joke as we all might have n...
I would say Buy whatever you like and stop worrying too much about the Fake console wars
In my case, I bought a gaming PC last year and lots of games on Steam for very low price, I bought Wii U because I love Nintendo's games and innovations
I still have a MASSIVE Backlog of games for 360\PS3\Wii as well as 3DS and to a lesser extent the Vita, So, PS4/X1 will have to wait until a price drop and more games come out also to give myself some time to finish the games ...
For me it's Wii U and PC, I might get ps4 if sony's exclusives turn out to be fun unlike KZ: Shadowfall, I may also get X1 when the price drops.
"I weep for all of the disappointed children who are going to end up with a Wii Mini or just a Wii U gamepad this Christmas."
EveryNObody on the web finds it trendy and cool to take cheap shots at Nintendo while they continue to provide the best games and innovation on console as well as handheld, LoL. But the first comment on that article is a winner and well deserved.
I've been a gamer since mid-eighties and I think you have to admire Nintendo for their ability to produce all of these supreme quality games since the beginning of modern gaming as we know it without going stale, games that are the gold standard for polished technical prowess and more importantly, unbelievable amounts of Fun. I've always imagined that people at Nintendo have discovered an infinitely deep well of Ideas, simply put, the magnitude of new ideas and experiences they introd...
Now that's what I call Milking, no, seriously, enough with yearly sequel attitude and give us some time to miss AC/CoD/BF and the likes so we can positively anticipate their next iterations.
That's what I've been saying for ages, be Less of an Analyst\Fanboy and more of a gamer. Everything has relative advantages and disadvantages and we all have our favorites but lets not always get our EGOs to clash for bragging rights; although it might be natural for certain character types to love flaming and act as a troll, but even those know deep down inside that their ideas are conflicting and they themselves are easily fallible and that what they are doing is fruitless. Happy ga...
Keep telling yourself that. The game looks gorgeous and plays perfectly fun and that's an exceedingly rare occurrence these days in Video Games. Good job EAD.
"Super Mario 3D World is easily on par with the Super Mario Galaxy titles and is hands down the best multiplayer Mario adventure that has ever graced a Nintendo system.It's easily the best title for the Wii U to date and one of the greatest adventures in Mario's star-studded history."
Good job again EAD-Tokyo.
"Super Mario 3D World is one of the best games in the history of the Mario franchise."
That's enough for me!
To the person who disagreed, can you please explain why this is not a good value? thanks.
Unbelievable value right there. People who are even remotely interested in fun games have No excuse now to grab one; it's affordable yet capable and durable machine with innovative controller, great game(Wind Waker HD)bundled in for free plus The Hyrule Historia digital book and digital promotion for downloadable games as well as FREE online and Miiverse, not to mention that it's Fully Backward Compatible with Wii games and accessories including wii-remote+ and classic pro controller....
Happy B-Day and thank you for what you did and continue to do in the Video Game Universe.
Animals are far superior to Corporate Slaves who defend low quality hardware products.
The media has been acting weird lately around sony, maybe that's the power of money or influence, but the damage control here is historically unheard of, They damage control things that still nobody has complained about in turn doing what can be best described as "future-proof Damage Control". Those money induced actions I can understand, but it's the fanboy promoting this kind of corporate damage control behavior and supporting it in their comments is what perplexes me, and...
You summed up my thoughts exactly.
1-Not as major as we have here.
2-other "failures" were admitted by everyone including manufacturer and solutions were swift.
3-This time it's Damage-Controlled to epic proportion by the media, manufacturer and blind fanboys, I doubt if someone pays 400$ ends up with malfunctioning console is happy to damage control unless he's a blind fanboy.
4-Look all over the internet and see the schism between disappointed purchasers with failing ps4s and corpora...
I don't know why, and it might be a long shot and frankly the game is already out, but my intuition points me toward something involving R*North, intuition just sayin'. Feel free to disagree!
