Wow. The Wii U's upscaling capabilities sucks. I have my U resolution set to automatic. The U upscaled Super Mario 3D World from 720p to 1080p, but outputed image was quite blurry. My TV was reading the signal as 1080p, so I manually changed the U to output only 720p, and let my TV upscale the image instead. Big difference. It's still not as sharp as a native 1080p image, but it's a lot better than having the U upscale it. It's odd, because I have my PS3 set to automatic, and it only outputs the game's actual resolution, unless I tell it to output only 1080p. I assume the same will be true of the PS4 as well. Why not the U?

Because of Miiverse!

My television was SUPER-HD... until I used Mii-verse!

GAF post on Lego Marvel I agree with:

I love Lego games but this one just sucks.

The Hub is just annoying. It serves no purpose except to make it more tedious to get from one mission to the next. Lego City Undercover shows how to do it right by filling the world with tons of little puzzles and rewarding exploration with lots of studs. Here you get nothing, just pure New York in all its boredom.

Then we have the levels. The level design with one or two exceptions is just bad. Like they didn't even care to make interesting or realistic or inspired levels. You enter the Empire State Building - and end up in a sewer/industrial level. You enter a prison and once you're inside there is no prison inside.

Controls are awful. Switching with Y used to be a good idea. When you only have two characters. Here you have up to four and getting the right one is pure randomness. You basically have to move towards the one you want to play and press Y. Meanwhile LB and RB don't have any function. It would be so easy to implement fastswitching between characters (in fact it used to be standard for free modes in previous Lego games) but again, they didn't care.

Characters. There are too many. Or the levels are just stupid. Every so often you have to use five different abilities within twenty seconds of gameplay to progress further. Levitate this, burn this, levitate the remains, magnetize them, burn again. Playing this game is a chore, I'm literally annoyed every ten minutes or so.

And then there's what is a trademark of Lego games. Humor. Or in this case the lack of it. It seems like it should be funny when Nick Fury eats a burger. I don't get it. It has the least amount of humor of any Lego game. Iron Mans suit doesn't go crazy on him, Hawkeye doesn't blind himself in the mirror, the torch isn't scared of water, they are all so very annoyingly true to their character I start to wonder why they are represented in Lego at all. The game would actually make more sense and be better if all the Lego stuff was gone.

Lego City Undercover is my alltime high of Lego games, this is a new low (played them all except Lego Batman 2, the Harry Potter ones and the Star Wars Clone Wars one). I have high hopes that Lego - The Movie - The Game will return to Lego City levels of entertainment, this is a total and devestating failure on all accounts.

Why the hell are you screaming at me?!

I am Dutch, I have seen broken shins before!

Iga lesson time. Check out the hand positioning of Weidman. Even if the kick went towards his midsection he would have blocked it. And with that block you can easily catch the kick! Such a beautiful check from Chris.

If you block a lowkick with the thick bone just beneath your knee, you will hardly feel a thing. Chances are that the kicker will feel pain. Breaking your own leg is extremely rare and I would never expect someone of Silva's caliber to break his leg like that.

Oh and I hate it when Rogan call it a leg kick. All kick are done with a leg you oaf!

Vade, first of all, have you ever considered that your online name is an anagram for your real name?

On Greg Miller's choice of #1. These kinds of list are personal by their nature and considering GM is a Sony fanboy I have trouble with questioning his choice of a PC game fo his personal GOTY (particularly since I am yet to play it -- though I own it -- thank you Foolz).

I have to think he was genuine in his selection.

Even if you get it back consider the sexual things some stward or stewardess has done with it.

I once had a constant erection, as well as a hat that dispensed beer to me through two tubes.  Then one day I read a forum post about Miiverse.  Since then I have a shrivelled member and my beer hat has developed blockages that prevent the free-flow of beer to my dried tongue.  Women and children revile my visage as I shuffle through the grocery store.

Raven, congrats on the new tube (an apparent life of crime that has lead to your wanton profligacy).

That sucks.  I hope they do the honest thing.  The better part of me thinks they will.

Hitman Absolution is overrated. I don't think its even as good as Blood Money. But the graphics are sweet.
