Digital Spy reviews Sonic Lost World
4 out of 5 - "a fresh and unique take on Sega's mascot that recaptures everything that was great about his 2D adventures, rights the wrongs of his 3D outings, and takes him into uncharted territory"

Why?
Someone hacked the site so they forced a password reset, I tried to change my email details but they still only accept paid for email services. In the end it seems my old passworld still works so I am okay I think.
I think "A Link Between Worlds" not only refers to Link travelling between Hyrule and Lorule. I think this Link is going to "link" all the Legend of Zelda worlds. Hell, Majora's Mask appears in the game and the stained glass windows from Wind Waker have been confirmed as well! I think there will be a "Time Travel" element or Lorule will be revealed to be ancient Hyrule. I think Yuga will be the Matriarch of Gannon's family line. I think this Link is going to be the one who leaves all the Tools and Items in all the "Past" games dungeons, and once he unites all of the worlds and provides "closure" to the old Zelda "acquire weapons dungeon mechanic" system, this game will establish both a new Zelda timeline and gameplay system for all future generations. I think this is a reboot of the whole franchise.
Man those Sonic reviews are all over the damned place. General consensus seems to be it's either too different or "I don't understand these controls." Normally that wouldn't be enough to dissuade me, but I think I'm going to hold off on this one for now. I really would prefer something familiar right now. When I'm ready for "new" I'm grabbing Wonderful 101. I'm sure I'll pick it up down the line, but next week I think I'll grab Lego Marvel Universe instead. . . mind you until I get my Wii U back I probably won't be buying much of anything.
Anyone here into compiling and maintaining a "Launch Day / Launch Window" blog or Topic for PS4 and Xbox One? There's been so many changes lately, it's hard to keep track and it might be a handy reference to have. I would totally do it, normally, but right now I have very little time.
If I were actually getting a launch Day console I.... well no I still wouldn't do it. But hey look at all those great kickstarter projects!
I can't seem to remember my GAF password so I can't change mine at all. Oh well, can't say I use it all that much anyway.
What about City? The general consensus is that it's the best Lego game, then Lego Batman 2 which was open world too but to a lesser extent.
I read more than I post there as it's like a Bond villains shark tank trap.
City is on the list still, and I'll pick it up soon enough. Marvel Universe is more about buying a familiar game than necessarily buying a quality one. It's something my kid and his friends can play, and hell it's something my comic geek friends will want to play as well.
So now Watchdogs and Driveclub are delayed, what is the PS4 launch lineup like?
I found this list but I think it's just for launch day:
What do you think and what are you picking up?
That's a lot of thinking right there! I admit I haven't really followed aLbW much, despite aLttP being my favorite Zelda game, so I don't know about all the winks to previous games.
I'm not saying you're not right, but since when has Nintendo bothered with creating a more or less coherent timeline in the franchise? Also, the stained glass windows don't reference WW, they reference OoT. If OoT is in there, it isn't much of a suprise to find elements from MM as well, as they're the only 2 games to feature the same Link. To deduce from that that this is the entry that will bring all games together is rather a long shot.
Yuga does look an awful lot like a travestite Ganondorf... But hey, Ganon is of the Gerudo tribe, and they've always all looked alike.
OK so Sonic is anything from a 4 all the way to a 9 depending on who you believe? I was never going to get it personally so I couldnt care less but I feel sorry for guys like Vader who want to know if it's a good enough game to get. Hopefully there's a demo or something

Listen to Wu-Tang and watch Kung-Fu
I'm all for the change as I've been a proponent of making 5 represent the score of an average game, but some titles will suffer for it.
I preferred Asylum and I'm dubious on how this other developer is going to make it.
Anyhow I'm going to play Animal Crossing online nao if anyone wants to join.
This is why I cancelled my PS4 preorder...because when I really thought about it I just don't need to spend $400 on a new console to play most of the games that are coming out anytime soon. I'm going to wait for a nice Metal Gear Solid 5 bundle or something along those lines.
BTW GG....2K Marin only made the crap Xcom game, The Bureau. Firaxis makes the awesome strategy games..so Xcom is just fine.
I popped in Animal Crossing on the Gamecube last night a a bit, another trip down memory lane. Its still just as charming as it was back in 2002. Are the newer ones much different? I've only played the original. Could definitely be interested in a Wii U title with an online community.
Good news.
On the delayed games front Watchdogs and DKCTP are delayed on U but Sonic is out early getting polarized reviews. What's U's Q4 like? I'm seriously considering Deus Ex, it's not price jacked like it is in America.
The 3DS one is brilliant, only reason I don't post more is that it's not as easy for me to grab pics from the sd card. To let you know how it's different today I was swimming and hand diving scallops and admiring the massive Sphinx statue I funded as Mayor whilst checking out my new triple decker Nooks megastore.
Try downloading the Wii U Animal Crossing app BTW if only to see the characters in HDLeo that theory sounds awesome.
Guess what time it is. Wonderful 101 time!!!!
OMG sony replaces Driveclub on PS Plus with... contrast. WTF. No.
