Unreal has always had a look about their games. Beefy models yes. Screen tearing - many of the games yes.
But it also has a shiny, glossy look to some textures that makes no sense. Or is over used.
Crysis 2 wasn't that bad story-wise.
I thought it was paced poorly, that's all.
I really enjoyed the feel of the game and mp was fun.
But....these guys seem like arrogant asshats.
By hardcore I mean - more juice than 3.5hrs in my game pad.
-racing games
-rpg
-fps
-tps
-fighters
These are the typical genres that captivate many hardcore gamers into long evenings of straight gaming.
I didn't see any if them (save zombieu)
I enjoy the less core games too. But, the showing was abysmal.
I play tons of games that many don't give a chance. El Shaddai,...
I can't wait to see the hacked iPads running WiiU pad stuff better than the actual game pads!:)
For casuals.
Ninny have made is crystal that they are for everyone - but very little for hardcore gamers.
If this gen has shown....the BIG genre you must have titles for is fps. Fact. (unless as stated you don't care about adult hardcore gamers)
So Ninny fail.
Google WiiU pad battery charge time vs use.
All the proof you need.
I've seen the leaked specs. Read the ludicrous charge time to play time for the pads. (2.5hrs charge for 3.5hrs play time)
The wiiU is just an hd Wii with a tablet. (a poor tablet since all it does is gaming related and Nintendo said themselves that hardcore gamers will want the hardcore controller....a exact replica of the 360 controller...with buttons moved and right stick swapping places with those buttons.
Look....it's ok. It's a casuals devi...
I was surprised how much I enjoyed the protect VIP segments in the campaign. At first the control limitation bugged me...but I quickly felt more involved actually protecting the VIP than I ever had in other shooters.
Mp is a blast! But no matchmaking for guerilla mode is crap.
Theirs a huge difference between scripted (cod) to contextual. And even I could see it was contextual.
The trick that naughty dog seems to have nailed that many other devs do not is that tell tale half-second before a contextual animation happens. Most lesser games give it away... Last of us seems flawless.
Oh, hideo is the man! Zone of Enders 3!!!!
I watched the asscreed 3 ps3 vs wiiU....nothing.
No difference at all. That's actually good for WiiU, sorta. Lol
I've seen the leaked specs...mostly tech garble.
But I could deduce that the WiiU has 3gb ram.
That should be plenty to dethrone 360 or ps3....but it doesn't tell the whole picture. Running 2 pads splits all 3 screens framerates to 30fps. Which I guess is fine....if the WiiU was current gen!
The pad takes 2.5hrs to cha...
Those vids above show that Ubi at least kept ac3 exactly same on WiiU vs ps3 (and likely 360)
But what's up with the tree climbing? Looks beyond realistic....lame actually.
And apparently snow back then wasn't at all slippery and you never leave foot prints. That's really annoying in a game about assassins and hunting prey/enemies. That's a huge wtf.
Unless I missed it. I'll rewatch it again.
Agreed. I fired up the legend of zot.....it too looks better than blops 2!
(FYI - Zot was a text adventure game on ancient commodore 64's) lol
While I do buy into this iteration of COD might be the biggest change to COD formula yet - I still find RTS in my fps meh.
And, with borderlands 2, moh 2, and I'm hoping crysis 3......I have no need for blops 2. Sad because this should really interest me. But I'm all spent on COD.
That likely will change as the size of the community is to me the biggest factor in getting into Cod.
But so far blops 2 is meh.
The article says quad xp if you use a token....I tried this on regular double xp weekend - it doesn't 4x XP.
@ ziggurcat
Been saying the exact same thing. It's a market plan that's as old as consoles.
But givIng Ninny 2yrs is madness.
Regardless, that ff Agni tech demo....is not next gen. It's possibly next-next gen. The costs of producing that game would destroy dev studios outright. The consoles needed to play that with that level of performance.....
Nope, even devs want current gen to last as long as possible. They&...
This^ is also why Sony & MS feel confident that they can let Nintendo have two years.
(e3 2013 reveal ps4/720, 2014 selling)
The corporate espionage is huge in the game industry in the later years before a new hardware launch. Sony & MS know what the specs are for WiiU and aren't threatened. (they leaked last night FYI)
I like how tecmo talk'd up how the game was steering away from the sexual objecting - yet sells bikini outfits.
It'll be dead in 2yrs. Unless the new school of marketing is to not show software for a device that uses said software?
Like wtf?! Sure their are games coming...but E3 is about showing what gamers need to expect in the remainder of the year. A way of saying "hey! Don't spend your money....because we need it!" lol
No. Your reading it right I think.
But he's implying quite correctly, that many of us gamers also have smart phones or tablets already. And smart glass is an app....a serious WiiU killer in sheeps clothing.
But...I still see Sony as the best option. This tablet non-sense is diversionary to gameplay on your tv. Who wants to look done at a controller to see a HUD map? Or perhaps some other gameplay idea?
Same goes for movies....Apples AirPlay doe...
Oh....ok, then I guess your fine with the 2.5hrs to charge the gamepad - only to get 3.5hrs of use.
No problem. We fans are ok with garbage.
I enjoyed the sh^t out of RAGE.
And the vehicular mp was much better than I thought it would be.
I'd love to get a sequel with a better story and proper ending.
