I'd buy it.
Knowing them, they'll make him a rival to DK with fart attacks, like Wario.
Having real problems in Deus Ex HR with the Singapore boss. My HUD and all stuff has been disabled. This invisible douche keeps phasing in and out of view. And I keep being shot from lord knows where with one hit kills. And I cant even use my typhoon. Need help guys.
Dang, I just read this article again, it applies now more than ever:
http://www.notenoughshaders.com/2013/05/18/wii-u-two-years-of-negative-brand-momentum/
Fuck sorry man, I can't even remember the fight. I need to get back to this game now that I think of it.
Well the long term benefit is not having an unwanted pregnancy.
Its kind of fucked either way. You don't pull out early, you have likely ANOTHER console that goes 2 years where its basically dead, other than a trickle of good games here & there. This is pretty much just as bad as releasing a new console early, as either way, many people are going to feel like they got screwed as they watch a shitload of badass games releasing on other platforms.
You release a new console early, people are pissed that they didn't get a full cycle out of the previous console. And you also run the risk of the competition releasing a new console that smokes yours a year or two later.
Either way, for the most part the console will be dead 2 years from now.
This has been a problem with Nintendo consoles since the N64 and I think its a bigger reason than people realize, for the slow sales of Wii U. Even the Wii, as popular as it was, was basically dead for the final 2 years of its life.....save for a few games that Nintendo purposely held back to make it seem like they had more content for it than they did (Zelda SS, Xenoblade, The Last Story...etc). So even though Nintendo has never "abandoned" a console like SEGA did, I think the general public doesn't see much difference between them. Either way, you're stuck with a console that doesn't have much to play after 2 or 3 years.
Do a barrel roll! That always works!
GG, I thought you were done with Deus Ex and moved on to ACIV?
Or is it the opposite, you're done with ACIV (Animal Crossing) and moved on to Deus EX?
Let's take the Saturn as an example that died in the us but not Japan. The amount of games we got started to decline till it became a rare game here or there. Store space would disappear since it was not selling. Eventually it just stopped being relevant at all. Now nine do has way too big franchises to ever be ignored completely but the store space stuff is happening already, most stores I see skylanders has a bigger shelf than wii u. So I don't think it will die die to full lack of support but it will be like the vita where it's just a zombie that sticks around cause the company who made it deserves at least that much respect.
At some point in the game I accepted a LIMB Clinic free upgrade. Which now means all my augmentations are null and void for this boss. Wtf?
Apparentely I started Mario and Splinter Cell and got so caught up in both I played them both through to the end. Without realising I still had to polish off Deus Ex. I started ACIV but I want to beat this game first.
I really need to find that faster sail soon in Wind Waker HD. I forgot how slooow the sailing was in this game, lol.
You know where it's at, right?
No.

Thanks!
Namir! THIS FUCKING BOSS!
Me with ZERO augmentations cause they disabled them. The screen is constantly blurry, with lens flare, distortions. The boss is invisible?! AND constantly throwing grenades at you. And to top things off there are 100 moving mannequins to distract you further. I even brought in a turret down the elevator and I can't even pick it up to change the angle cause my augmentation is disabled.
^ Glad I never got around to playing that game yet. I may avoid it now.
Found this GG, then remembered doing this to defeat him:
In deus ex human revolution, once Jensen knows the tactics of Jaron Namir, it is now possible to devise tactics and strategies to defeat him. Now Jensen needs to defeat Jaron Namir using the "upgraded biochip", which means Jensen cannot detect him on the radar when Namir uncloaks. The key to this disadvantage is to position Jensen at one of the four corners of the outer large room so that Jensen's back faces the corner. This will give Jensen the view of two corridors at the same time, where Namir is likely to climb down and attack.
It may be necessary to create the ultimate Jensen augmented fighting machine before entering this fight against Jaron Namir.
When Namir is cloaked, he will appear as a silvery near invisible figure. Spot this figure through the distorted visual field of Jensen, and when Namir has just uncloaked, launch the heaviest weapons at Namir, be it grenades or other weapons. Next, when Namir starts throwing grenades, run! When Jensen is damaged and the screen goes red, just keep running around the perimeter of the outer larger room, until the screen becomes clear again. Also remember to go into this fight with lots of Painkillers, in case the running tactics fail, because Namir can pop up anywhere through climbing the walls.
If the heaviest weapons cannot harm Namir, then it is necessary to resort to some other brain techniques, since excessive firepower cannot seem to harm Namir. The ultimate epiphany comes to Jensen when he realizes that the "upgraded biochip" only affects his visual and sensory perceptions; it does not affect his other augmented functions. Press F1 to cloak and then the designated quickkey button for the Typhoon augment. It works!
So beginning at stage one above, position Jensen so that his back is against the corner. Now when Namir uncloaks, run next to him, and immediately unload the Typhoon augment power. Watch as Namir is stunned and hit by this powerful attack. When the Typhoon cut scene stops, start running again around the outer perimeter of the room, until health is recovered, and then repeat the whole process. With this tactic and strategy, it won't be long before Jaron Namir is defeated!
I played the first few levels on the PS3. Can't tell if it's a good game or not, it probably is but it was too hard for me.
