Those Rayman screens look so clean. I love the way it looks. But that's where my love ends. Rayman Origins didn't do shit for me.

I played the demo again on Thursday and appreciated it a bit better, but still I wasn't down with the gameplay. But the visuals here look so packed with personality I think I would just enjoy seeing it all and interacting with the art.

Huzzah! My copy of Too Human will be a collector's item.

Put it on ebay and Dyack has to buy it back.

Man, I bet Denis Dyack is wishing he didn't leave the Nintendo camp real bad right now. They were the epidome of a company that really benefitted from having Nintendo's quality control looking over their shoulder.

• Silicon Knights
• Rare
• Factor 5

Wish they had just continued to work on Wii. For a start Wii would have been better off for it, but also they would be better off for it, expanding on their GC engine work and having Nintendo there to guide them, they would also benefit from lower development costs and probably would have made more games. F5 made Lair and died, SK basically died after Too Human. Rare is just..... well they did better but they still aren't the company they used to be in terms of game output.

Hey guys, I played with the Wii U controller at Target last night!

I didn't even know it was there...my girlfriend pointed it out while I was browsing the PC games. There were no playable demo, only videos. But all fears I may have had about the Gamepad were laid to rest; This thing is awesome. The best controller Nintendo has ever made, hands down! It fits perfectly in your hands, all the buttons are easy to hit and right where they should be. The click ins on the sticks feel great and the screen is beautiful. Its very light as well....lighter than a 360 controller. Its not anywhere near as heavy as it looks like it would be.

I cannot wait until next sunday!

Lighter than a 360 pad? Does not compute. That's awesome. Is the screen big enough? How did you find the responsiveness of the touch screen?

The first thing I thought of when using the screen to browse the different videos was "Wow...its like an ipod on an Xbox controller." That's what it feels like. The response time was instant from what I could tell. The screen size is fine, I don't think I would want it any bigger OR smaller...just right to hold down on your lap and be able to clearly see whatever is on it, without feeling overbearing.

Yes, the light weight of it really impressed me...I know by looking at it you'd think it must be the heaviest controller ever made, and I'm sure 10 years ago it would have been...but I guess technology comes a long way. Its about as light as a PS3 controller.

Remember how nice the Gamecube pad felt in your hands...how it molded perfectly in them? Well that's exactly how this pad feels too, mostly thanks to the shoulder buttons being perfectly shaped. That may be my favorite feature of the gamepad, the shape and feel of the shoulder buttons. It gives it that nice cocooned feeling that the Gamecube pad had. Only, this controller is not hampered by a gimped button layout, missing buttons, etc. Its damn near perfect.

I agree with the dude from Gearbox: Best controller Nintendo has ever made.

Look at this

Definite graphical improvement from the first game.

So Halo 4, umm, its beautiful. The thing is that its still the same exact thing. You'd think a new dev, a new trilogy that they would really try some new stuff but there is nothing game changings. All new weapons basically are the same types with a new color laser. The new enemies are cool but not different enough to feel new. Scenarios are still the same, part of this game takes place in a catographer which has the same layout as the one in Halo 1. Areas aren't huge so there has not been big battles to use vehicles in.

That said its still fun to play with great enemy AI and nice mix of enemies that force some strategic play. But more of the same.

Well I am officially out of the Wii U launch group. Just got a nasty repair bill on my car. Can't justify a new console at this point. *insert random Japanese profanities*

In other news I'm sticking with Persona 3 until this game gets finished.

What was wrong with your car?

God dammit, you got me excited for a minute. I read that wrong and thought there was a NMH2 for the Wii U.

Damn.  So you got the no-time + out-of-towner rates. Sucks to have to spend money on real world things instead of games/ booze.

and whores. Good whores cost money too. Those bitches don't work for free.

Finally got a chance to play the Sony All-Stars demo on a Vita. It's like Smash Bros. if they found a way to remove all elements of fun. Maybe it will work better on the big screen, but as a handheld that game offers nothing.

Well that's a wee bit harsh.
