Say what you want about FF XIII but Lightning is so damn sexy imo
Wii games sold for $50 and outsold many HD games. That is one reason the wii was a success. Keep games at $50 next gen.
The GPU has been in the design phase for awhile. The closest GPU off the shelf that had the specs Nintendo wanted were the 4000 series GPU's. Those Wii U's shown at E3 2011 were not final, they were rushed and put together. The final GPU and CPU will be customized just like all other video game consoles.
My good man, the CPU shares some characteristics of a Power7, such as architecture and the use of eDRAM instead of L3 cache.
"The Wii U CPU is designed by IBM. It is described by IBM as an "all-new, Power-based microprocessor",[64] the processor is a multi-core design manufactured at 45 nm with an eDRAM cache. Although neither Nintendo nor IBM has revealed detailed specifications, such as the number of cores, clock rate, or cache sizes, references to the chip ...
The CPU was not confirmed quad-core. Newest rumors from NeoGaf is tri-core but with a different architecture and more eDRAM than the Xenos. The GPU is a custom HD That isn't relatable to any off the shelf GPU.
The rest is believable.
Watching porn while having a business meeting at work confirmed. Nobody will notice.
What kind of legit analyst says "fanboys". That's not a professional term. This "analyst" sounds like Pachter with a bias towards Nintendo. He is only half right.
I rational self thinks that weekend is the most probable. My irrational self wants this thing in the summer like in August.
It's okay to like one console If it has the games you like. It's not okay to make others feel inferior because they don't own the same console as you do.
I hear kidneys are selling well on the black market? Maybe you could sell one of those :p
Don't forget Its practically a new IP and not a sequel. New IP's don't always sell well so these numbers are good.
First course: How to fuck up a Game's Ending 101
I haven't used Kinect but my best bet is the same reason most enthusiasts didn't like the Wii; standard controls. Most gamers play gsmes to relax not move around a lot. The wii's best gsmes are the ones that didnt require you to get off the couch. The wii's gimmick has a type of control st least. Kinect is like playing naked to a gamer (no controller)
I lol'd. Great parody of a relationship.
Agreed! Sadly it wasn't very popular with people and being released just before directx 11 caused a lot of gamers to skip it and wait for the gtx 400 series off radeon 5000 series.
In my opinion though,not many games use dx11 and even more I'm not interested in (Batman AC is the exception)
I am still using my gTX 295 that I got December 2009. It runs today's games at 1080p, 8xAA, 4xAF and 50-60fps. The only thing it lacks is directx 11.
I run all unreal engine games (Mass Effects, Batman), SC2, and SWTOR at max settings, 1080p, 16xAA and 16xAF at 60fps or more. It's a wonderful card that still plays games at max settings today (battlefield 3 is the exception, and crysis is only 30-40fps at max settings).
Still, I love my video card an...
How to use Xbox 360 controller on PC.
Plug in the controller into your USB port and let windows find the driver itself and automatically install it.
Judges? Usually members of the media do it. It can't be fellow game developes unless they excuse themselves from categories their games are nominated for.
I would love a combo of the popular developers like Miyamoto, Cliffy B, Mark Rein, David Jaffe, Sakaguchi, Stig Assmussen, etc. But it would probably be like sports awards voting where members of the media vote on a panel, like 1 guy from IGN, Gamespot, Gamasutra, Kotaku. Metacritic, Forbes, etc.
This is what happened with the Wii. You introduce Some new tech to enjoy gems differently and developers get lazy and uncreative and make them gimmicky.
False Reporting. The spreadsheet says Wii/Wii U forecasted 10 million sales COMBINED!
