The more you know. Maybe if the original pricing model was a roaring success we would have seen a powerful Wii-U.

edit: also choc, circle pad pro coming for XL ;)

We don't know why he keeps buying PAL, either.

Me too, I was just a little disheartened when I found out that NSMB is only running at 720P. For a such a simple game I expected more.

Most launch games will be, Scribbleanuts Unlimited isn't and is at full 1080p.

As for the 3DS losing money, it did when it dropped. It might not be now.

As to be expected VOOK, was just surprising. Having said that, I am glad they stuck with 60fps over resolution, which imo is much more important for a Mario game.

That looks just like that reaction pic from... what was it, IGN? Gamepro? Something like that. The one with the four guys cheering then sitting still.

So, who's in that picture? Schafer obv, I *think* the Epic Mickey dude... but that's it :/

I wonder which platform is going to have the most software, PS4, or iPad?


One that they forgot for the 3DS.

Gamecube actually launched at a very small loss, in the USA at least. So its not a brand new thing, only more significant with 3ds. Although this week they announced they're now making money on it from XL on.

I won one of those Mario 3DS'. I would keep it but money is tight and I have a 3DS already. What do you guys think is the best way to sell it? I saw a Peach one go on Ebay for $600.

I kinda feel bad selling it :p

"“After the next generation of machines come out, Wii U will be a performance orphan,” one industry insider who is familiar with the specs of the new Nintendo console, told Kotaku. “It will be closer in performance to the next iPad than the next-gen machines. ”"

So it will be less powerful than the PS4 and 720 which aren't haven't even been announced?

MIND FUCKING BLOWN

The rate that mobile/pad hardware is advancing it is becoming very clear that consoles in ten years will be very, very different.

The scariest thing was a bunch of fifty-five year old men, who have never played a game in their lives, decided they’re gonna do a game console and then start talking about the specifications. This is like a group of men designing tampons or something. It’s a very bad idea.

Exciting, my new work phone just arrived (Galaxy S3), hurry up and charge.

Also, I think I just came up with a really good idea for a game (actually maybe 2) and google tells me it hasn't been done yet which I find surprising.

The Japanese version of Sleeping Dogs has a few country specific edits, such as penalising players who harm civilians in the game and cutting a scene that shows a person’s exposed organs


FWIW it passed uncut here

glad that this has come about

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=480270

although i still enjoy playing with my mates as well as rezbit/fogz/omi from gaf of late.
i find this all to be entirely true.

i hope blizzard can find a way to fix this but the FUN of diablo hack and slash seems to diminish the more i play.
Click to expand...

Yep. This is why I have pretty much quit at level 35. I can see it going nowhere of interest to me and replaying the same content isn't very appealing. It might be more enjoyable at higher difficulties, but it still appears you just have to repeat the same motions over and over again to defeat the same waves of enemies, and isn't heavily skill based.

I might have stuck with it more if I played co-op, but if the gameplay isn't holding my interest in single player it's not really a game I want to play in multiplayer either. One of the reasons why I don't play MMOs.

Quitting while I'm ahead so I don't get completely burnt out before Torchlight 2.

I know but I don't like racing games so I thought Halfbrick could have something better to show Lord Master Schafer :)

I stayed up almost all night finishing an "Epic" speed game of Civ V. The new expansion has fixed my biggest problem with that game. I built a space-ship and won. It was cool.

MGS3 finished. Best MGS.
Click to expand...

Total understatement. MGS3 is concise where it needs to be (exposition) and detailed where it best suits (survival aspect).

Its a game that knows its a game, like Resi 4. So many little details in it, it puts the rest of the series to shame, which is no mean feat given mgs1 quality.

MGS3 does go off the rails during some points but the initial area of survival in the jungle is the most incredible game design, its just ridiculously good and puts Kojima up there with the best of them.

This was made in 2004 and it still today represents amazing game design

Now I can either go Peace Walker, MGS1 (PS1 or Twin Snakes, I have both), or MGS4.

Then after the MGS series playthrough I might go finish Persona 3 again or do Half-Life. Screw playing new games when I can just replay excellent old games!

THIS IS HUGE

A New Zealand High Court judge has ruled that police search warrants used to seize property from Megaupload's founder Kim Dotcom were illegal.

Justice Winkelmann has also ruled it was unlawful for copies of Dotcom's computer data to be taken offshore.

She ordered that no more items taken in the raids could be removed from New Zealand, and instructed the attorney-general to return clones of the hard drives held by New Zealand polic
She said that police without a valid warrant were trespassing and exceeded what they were lawfully authorised to do.

Maybe not! "One of the Carpe Fulgar guys posted over at Penny Arcade this: "Unless I've been badly lied to, sale isn't starting tomorrow. (I can't say when it IS starting, but I think I can say it isn't tomorrow.) "

Even worse for you rep if it's 2 weeks away! D:
