I've been laughing at it for weeks, and its early adopters/white knights (they're the same thing).

One of my friends that works in a game shop, admittedly in a different country, said people were coming in thinking that it was just a new controller they could buy for their Wii.

 

[Timurid]

What a bullshit game! I hope zeman gets fucking sack!

Horrible name and poor marketing to thank for that.

 

[Omikron]

Stoke are more rugby club than football club.

You are not the first person to say that.

I like Stoke.... whan they are not playing against us.

 

[AndresON777]

The least you could do after robbing them twice.

I'm convinced they had some kind of magnet/nanomachine/alien technology in those goal posts last season because the chances we missed were absolutely ridiculous.

you'll see, one day the truth will be known!

---but yeah I'm subscribed to that 'undercooked' wii u thread. so good

One of my friends that works in a game shop, admittedly in a different country, said people were coming in thinking that it was just a new controller they could buy for their Wii.

I can see why, my dad bought my little brother a 360, and said they were considering the Wii U but there's no point because they've already got a Wii.

Overall it was a good call though, paying double to buy a Wii U over a 360 is madness.

Their defending in the box is basically to hug all their opponents. Getting kinda ridiculous.

 

[faridmon]

Yay for Roma winning. Suck it haters. Zemen, Legend, champion, whathever.

Yeah, its bad, that I can give you.

 

[Timurid]

You guys sucked ass and got a penalty. Osvaldo is a fucking joke and zemen should stay in the serie B where he belongs! Pjanic only scored because it deflected from gazzi. If we had competent attackers you guys would of lost.

 

[sazabirules]

I think it would be fun to do a FM save running Stoke and trying to recreate their style and only get Stoke-type players.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Can we laugh at Wii U yet?

You haven't already started? I'm in tears over here. Astonishingly woeful even by Nintendo's low standards.

 

[elsk]

So, Bayern vs Valencia tomorrow. I'm really nervous. This game will be very important.

Gustavo had a groin surgery. That sucks :|

Yeah, Luiz Gustavo has been amazing for a while now... really shitty he had to get injured just now. Hope he can come back after the winter break.

At least keeping Tymo makes sense now.

 

[Yurt]

Hard to care about a midtable team results.

Oh wait, you care about Everton!

 

[faridmon]

Sorry, but relaying on good defenders gets you so far. Osvaldo and Pjanic scored and that what matters. There are so many games that went against Roma this season, so it was a good win that came out of nothing.

And I don't support Roma, seriously.

Hard to care about a midtable's team results.

Oh wait, you care about Everton!

Its harder to win leagues when you are not paying anyone. Really!

 

[Broder Salsa]

Can we laugh at Wii U yet?

I would laugh at it, if only I didn't know it would make Nintendo lots of money. The usual nintendo fans will eat it raw anyway.

 

[Timurid]

Sorry, but reliying on good defenders gets you so far. Osvaldo and Pjanic scored and that what matters. there are so many games that went against Roma this season, so it was a good win that cam out of nothing.

And I don't support Roma, seriously.

It was a shit win for you guys! You needed the ref to help you out.

 

[pulga]

lol Boardwalk Empire.

 

[spidye]

fucking Can had to get injured too :|
wanted to see more of him than tymo to be honest

 

[Yurt]

I'm convinced they had some kind of magnet/nanomachine/alien technology in those goal

I think they call it Karma.

 

[faridmon]

It was a shit win for you guys! You needed the ref to help you out.

Why do people cry bitter tears when their team loses? Just DEAL WITH IT! Bloody hell!
Is it some Italian thing?

 

[Baconsaurus Rex]

lol Boardwalk Empire.

What's so lol about people dying

 

[Omikron]

I really do hate Stoke.

 

[Broder Salsa]

Well the refs being extremely incompetent is certainly a very Italian thing. The refs in England got some shocking matches every now and then, but Clattenburg vs Chelsea stuff is every day stuff in Serie A.

 

[pulga]

Mainly lolling at Gyp. Can't the guy go one episode without going batshit loco?

if it wasn't a dodgy penalty then i wouldn't be complaining...

 

[faridmon]

The whole footballing community unites on this, my friend. I just enjoy the Lols they bring out of other people. I shouldn’t say this since they are awful team, but man, just reading countless comments how they suck (including mine) is just entertaining.

 

[StealthGoblin]

Nowhere near good enough from West Ham. Would have been nice to have played a team that really tried to go for the win though.

 

[faridmon]

I see, that is bad. Can't the Italian FA do something about it? wait, they are just waiting to be paid by certain club(s)

if it wasn't a dodgy penalty then i wouldn't be complaining...

Meh, happens. So many dodgy calls that went against us this season

Spoiler

or else, we would have number 1 in the table

Yeah totally. I can't think of any redeeming feature they possess.

Rogue waves man, rogue waves.

 

[sazabirules]

I watch them because Cameron joined them. He hasn't done anything Stoke-like to deserve hate.

Except play for Stoke.

 

[elsk]

fucking Can had to get injured too :|

I'm pretty sure Can is more of a Schweinsteiger than a true DM, tho, for what I've seen of him so far. Tymo really knows how to read the game, so we really could use him as long as Gustavo is injured

 

[sazabirules]

Except play for Stoke.

Stoke's style has been effective for them. I don't see why they couldn't eventually change and get rid of the dirty tactics.

 

[Fry]

Yeah, Luiz Gustavo has been amazing for a while now... really shitty he had to get injured just now. Hope he can come back after the winter break.

At least keeping Tymo makes sense now.

Martinez will have his chance to shine now.

 

[elsk]

Martinez will have his chance to shine now.

Yes! Lets hope for the best, he still doesn't quite get what to do on the pitch, he needs to work on his partnership with Schweinsteiger

pulga you want to talk about Boardwalk Empire go to the BE thread pendejo

 

[spidye]

tymo was awful in the nürnberg match, though. way too many misplaced passes and shockingly, way too many individual mistakes that lead to counter attacks

 

[bud]

there are, like, 48 wii u threads in the gaming forum.

could someone please give a short recap of all the problems. i am genuinely curious.

Handy summary here:

- 1GB day one firmware update via slow servers.
- Individual updates for every single game so they can access Miiverse.
- Slow, laggy operating system menus.
- Almost if not every 360/PS3 port has inferior visuals and/or performance to their current gen counterparts.
- GamePad and pro controllers unusable for character control in NSMBU multiplayer.
- Crashes/freezes.
- User accidentally accesses debug version of main menu.
- Another user accidentally access admin control of Miiverse, reading messages from one of the Miiverse creators/programmers.
- Nintendo IDs tied to systems, no option to transfer yet.
- Audio/video tied to HDMI or component, no option for one on either.
- TV remote control does not work with receivers. Therefore if you wish to use surround sound via HDMI, you have no TV GamePad control.

Most unbelievably mangled console launch in history.

 

[Timurid]

That's ridiculous

 

[Fry]

Yes! Lets hope for the best, he still doesn't quite get what to do on the pitch, he needs to work on his partnership with Schweinsteiger

Yeah, but I'm not sure he'll start tomorrow, he was injured a couple of days ago.

I want the 3 points and a Gomez cameo. That's not too much to ask, is it? What a complicated group!

 

[Freewheelin']

I think they rushed it to launch before the new Xbox and PS4, because they know that Sony and Microsoft will crush them.

 

[Timurid]

@Adz77: Roma with a soft penalty. Somewhere Moratti & Palazzo adjust their set wondering when Juve changed kits....

LOL

Nah, iirc, Wii came out after Xbox and PS3. But the motion controls and 'family-friendly' console led to those ridiculously good sales.

 

[Baconsaurus Rex]

Just wait until all the kids and grannies buy the Wii U. 50m sold in no time
