that why I'm asking why would he buy anything that is on PS3 for WiiU
EC is only here to keep an eye on us
blu
Wants the largest console games publisher to avoid Nintendo's platforms.
I think that's more than enough for launch.
Frackin' eh, NG3 didn't turn out at all what I was hoping for it to be... So far, though, Wiiwoo's version of Project CARS is looking pretty neat.

I'm pretty hyped to get ACIII, it'll be my first Assassin's Creed game too.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
If it's on the Wii U I will buy it for the Wii U.
Given I'll have a Wii U at launch, unless console exclusive games are somehow crippled on the Wii U (eg: shitty port) I wouldn't get them for my PS3. No reason to. Even if they're identical in look and performance, the Wii U version simply having some gimmicky extras would be enough for me to pick that one. I'll have the system anyway, so yeah.
But of the games listed, I will be getting them on PC, not consoles.
I almost spit my tea across my screen.
Assuming that I do get a Wii U within the next year, just AC3.
I don't think I've actually seen too much gameplay from this game to be honest. I've probably seen one video from last year.

Some newly released footage and interview about game:

At first glance, people might think Metro Last Light is a generic FPS.
But the survival horror elements and the Russian setting give the game a lot of atmosphere.

any hope of South Park RPG on WiiU even later?

For me it's easy.
Arkham City and Aliens. Both of those assuming I do buy it at launch.

Metro 2033 was pretty damn shitty, in my opinion, so that might be why. The atmosphere and graphics were incredible, but the gameplay was shitful. It's one of the worst cases of horrible, bullet-sponge enemies, bland encounters and pea shooter weapons I can remember. Not to mention you spend half the bloody game just following NPCs through blatantly scripted sequences.
Excellent atmosphere that sucks you right in, but a pretty shitty game to play. It just wasn't very fun. Unlike, say, STALKER.
Metro: Last Light looks pretty, but if it plays like 2033 I won't be buying until it's very cheap.

Sony fans are strange these days
IntelliHeath
As in "Heathcliff"
what are moderators going to do with paul gate if he was wrong again. I think it was 3rd or 4th rumors that he was wrong about? I am happy that he spoiled Playstation All Star but seriously, come on with other 3/4 rumors if I recalled it correctly?
Watching it right now with no sound, but it looks pretty great. We can play through it together Oddduck!
I'm just afraid, like EC said, the gameplay might not be that great. I haven't played 2033, but judging from what EC is saying I might hold off until it hits the bargain bin.
If I recall correctly, Paul Gale didn't start this rumor.

Smart move. Konami's history with Nintendo is spotty at best and downright BS at worst. Now that Iga's done for I have basically 0 expectation of anything appearing on N's platforms, or them releasing anything worthwhile for that matter.

Every week I buy a 3DS just so I can trade it in for a Vita.
iono. If something is to be done I'm sure it will be a group decision. I haven't really spoken to the others about it.

Don't see why not. Plus if Trey has any say in the matter I'm sure he'll push for it.
I would still keep my eye on Metro: Last Light.
I'm not saying you're wrong for thinking the way you are, but sequels in videogames tend to be a lot better than the originals (Donkey Kong Country 2, Red Steel 2, Resident Evil 2, etc etc)
Also 2033 did average an 80 percent on gamerankings out of 23 reviews. So I don't know if "shitty" is the right way to describe it. But to me, it looks like Metro Last Light will try to fix all of 2033's shortcomings.

o_o not worried that you won't get anything? Unless you don't give a shit about story. Honestly you should play part 2, it was really great.

I'll be so pissed if the next WiiU game I see footage of is the NASCAR game >:|

I don't care what anybody else thinks about it. It was a shitty game to me that I derived very little enjoyment from. The kind of game I look at and go "I will never play you again, because you were not fun". The onus is on the Metro: Last Light team to prove to me their sequel fixes the problems I had with the original. If they don't, fine, they don't get my sale. If they do, good, they get my sale.
No hair of my back. I'll buy what I want to play and ignore what I don't. In retrospect, if it weren't for the eye candy, I probably should have ignored 2033.

AC3 is the ONLY one I plan to get there, the rest I either already played, have no interest in, or suck (or will likely suck). I'll let people decide which description goes where.
With that said, I don't even plan to get AC3 at launch.
My goal for launch is one MP game: Blops2 and one Nintendo first party game: whatever their best one is, if there's a mario game, then that, if Retro game is launch, then that (pending on it not being some shitty fps).
I don't do backlogs so one MP game and one SP game is all I can do at the absolute max at one time.

how does Halo 4 get leaked pics and not WiiU games? damn MS
Fantastical
Death Prophet
I seriously don't see how people are interested in such a game. It's probably because I'm not a fan of South Park, but still...

there are 2 paul gales, the rumour paul gale and the non rumour. It's important to separate the two. He didn't "get all stars right", he stated it as factual from the get go, he wasn't posting a rumour, he was leaking/breaking a story. All the other stuff he has posted, and by all I basically just mean TMNT and Metroid x Starfox are clearly stated rumours. He didn't even want to post the TMNT thing but people wanted him to so he did.
Just important to separate the two. The guy obviously has sources and is capable of breaking something, but it's important to read his words because when he says rumour and grain of salt, he means it times a million...clearly.
I think the look of South Park works well with an RPG. It has that 2D art style that makes the game less dark, and more light hearted....even if the humor is very vulgar lol.
Seeing a bunch of 2D kids in a colorful RPG kind of reminds me a little of earthbound too.
Obsidian is a good/great RPG developer. And it uses elements from Paper Mario's gameplay in the game.

Yeah I guess you need to like South Park to find South Park: The Game interesting
Just a hunch

Well the ray tracer/rasterizer hybrid was more of a joke.
My main thing was wanting to understand if it was logical that the texture samplers could be modified as a way to address my original premise.
And considering the business perspective that AMD and nVidia have, would they even really be that concerned about making certain things more efficient? It sounded like there were things Nintendo contributed to the GPU that may not have necessarily come from AMD.

I don't really like South Park. It's the cynical internet asshole of TV shows. Every week, it's telling us how much something sucks, with no real solutions except for moderation. It hates everything, but it stands for nothing, because being excited or passionate about anything makes you a fuckin' loser.
South Park is like that one guy you know who always makes jokes about how fucked up the world is. He's funny, he's often right...but you don't wanna hang out with that kind of person, ya know? The only thing you'd have in common is how much you DON'T have in common with other people. "Yeah, I hate things as well! Let's hang out!"

I care more about slitting red coat throat and broing out with George Washington than AC's ridiculous narrative arc, yes.
All adult cartoons are cynical. Don't just single out South Park. Adult cartoons live off cynicism.
The Boondocks
Family Guy

Not interested in any of those. GTA V perhaps. But I'm waiting for first party titles to make a decision about whether to buy a Wii U or whether I won't. Won't happen until summer 2013 no matter...
Saying that Castlevania LoS2 is coming does not need a prophet though.
Well, didnt some rumor a while ago claim that Nintendo licensed a Square-Enix character for use in a game? That could have been Geno, if that rumor was true.
Let me take a wild guess here!
Exclusive Ubisoft... U babiez?
Capcom revival of old franchise... Rockman.exe ONLINE? maybe not old franchise but still...
But my favorite guess, an idea i had a few days ago.
Joint collaboration between Capcom and Nintendo.
A mature franchise that will never see the light of day, even in a perfect world...
Brace yourselves everyone for... Pocket Monster Hunter(or Pokémonster Hunter as it'll be called in west). I'd kill for a Pokémonster Hunter
Where did you hear this? I was going to dismiss the game, but if this is true and since Obsidian is developing it then I must purchase it.
Honestly I am most interested in seeing what they do with the VC and other digital titles on the Wii U. I know that the third party ports and first party HD games will be there.
I've already checked them off my list.
My Wii is starting to fail though and I hope that they'll announce system transfer for VC or not at e3 so I can at least know where I stand on getting in cleaned of homebrew and fixed or not.
