Maybe, guess we will see, but they have seemed to all but abandon Kinect. As for Smartglass, don't really follow it (no reason to), it seems as if it was conceived for an entirely different purpose, i.e separate companion (mobile style)apps that interconnect with console / pc games. While it may be possible to do what the Wii U does, it isn't purpose-built like it. Nobody knows, all we really do know is, that no one has tried anything significant with it.
I'm not hating on this, but this genre seems like it could benefit more from the Wii U, interface-wise (on consoles that is).
I still have both my Wavebirds (the GC system also), though I only have one GC controller which I gave to my kids to use on their Wii (they prefer it to the original classic controller). I'm definitely getting one of those adapters though, hope it works with the Wii app. as well as Wii U stuff.
@OculusRift - "The rich who are already rich? Or is downloading a game called stealing now?"
Oh the rich who are already rich, well then by all means, they are not people and don't count. /s
As for the second part, no, unless you're downloading it without paying for it. What you sound like you're suggesting, is that a person's station in life determines right and wrong. Look, we all get it, these companies (and the rich people that r...
Yeah all of that sucks, but how does that justify stealing (or considering stealing), just asking.
Not to mention that it was the built-in DVD player that made a huge contribution to the PS2 blasting past everything. During that generation of hardware the Gamecube was pretty similar to the DC (pretty much no additional functionality beyond games), and the Xbox couldn't compete with the PS2's game library despite being the more powerful system (hell, I think everything else was more powerful, not to sure though). Loved the Dreamcast.
OT - I don't mind that Ninte...
That's hilarious.
The weird rubbing mechanic aside, I was actually considering this (been looking forward to a new TCG for my portable). Plus, weird mechanic aside this sounds to actually be a pretty decent one (hmm maybe still will, who knows).
Mario Kart 8 for me, maybe WD later, still haven't decided (probably not though).
Full of stealth spoilers! Beware
I agree with getting new blood, but I only disagreed with wanting another Mario, Zelda, Star Fox, and what we all know is coming (I want them, too). Your opinion is not wrong, but I'm sure I'm not the only one who is interested in the old vanguard as well.
Agree, and I wish driving through (real)Chicago felt a little more like that, but then again if it felt too much like the real thing I would get angry and frustrated (Chicago traffic sucks, not the worst I've personally seen, that goes to DC). Outside of the density, though they really did a good job of capturing the look and feel (relatively).
Day 1 Deluxe owner here, ;D
Movie story telling isn't necessarily that great, especially more recent efforts.
What creatives really need, is to add the old trunk powder back into the mix (plus I hear, "it's a helluvah drug"), s#** that came out of the 80s was bats#!* crazy, lol.
/s
And @GamingSinceThe80s, yeah I completely agree, though for me it was necessity through to the Dreamcast (if I wanted something new), but the only one I've regretted was my DC and its games (should've never given that one up). Oh well at least I can still play it at my older brother's place (minus some of the cooler games). OT - yeah, I'm glad I have the Wii U around, it's still a prince, warts and all.
Yup, I'll pay $60 for this game, on a side note in that interview it mentioned Evolution also made WRC in addition to the Motorstorm games, and then I got all (mistakenly) nostalgic about one of my favorite racing games back on Dreamcast, but after looking it up, realized it was actually Test Drive V Rally, and not their WRC. I do remember playing one of the WRC games and liking it though, and loved the first 2 Motorstorm games, so there's that.
I'm excited, love Warhammer games, @ATi_Elite - I completely agree. Hope this gets into E3, so that I can see some more. Though, to be honest I don't really need to be sold any more.
Just came (to drop some agrees), and now to clean up my mess.
I don't know if anyone else noticed, but in the 3rd comparison nothing is getting illuminated by the gunfire flahes (not even the gun barrels on the turrets) on the X1. Also, in the second comparison that dude laying down poppin' off shots on the lower right, his gunfire flashes don't light up much either, and oddly enough neither does that lightning arcing off of that machine in the background (this is not as fair as the 3rd comparison, because they are showing different footage)...
What I meant by all but abandoned is, that with the Kinect-less sku, if that becomes the way that consumers moving forward buy the X1 and support for Kinect itself doesn't grow much beyond what it is now due to the early adopters, what choice is left? Continue to support and develop for a device that people aren't getting?
They might take a wait and see approach (it seems like that is what they already are doing, hence the un-bundling), while waiting for the device to...
