That bit from Natsume saying that Nintendo has taken all the SNES games for their VC service that they want kind of pisses me off. So how many other games are we not getting because of this?

I am about to write my Bloodborne review and I was thinking of bullet points, so I figured before I start I take a look at my DS2 review... wtf its the same thing I was going to write. Well some of it, other parts confuse the hell out of me. One of my main points in my review will be that bloodbornes online is a huge step back from DS2. I spent a whole two paragraphis shitting on the DS2 online in the review, wtf?! That review reads like I hated that game but I think back on it very fondly, the score is spot on to how I feel about the game, I will buy the new version.

I got to be more positive in my BB review.

Take whatever Natsume says with a grain of salt. They're kind of dumbasses. And I say this as a Harvest Moon fan who has loved them for years and spends a lot of time on their Facebook page.

I guess it is possible. The VC isn't knocking it down the same way it did in the Wii era. If Nintendo has to pay for whatever modifications have to be done to the games so they run in HD, they may be evaluating some games and deciding what's worth doing. That would certainly explain why we rarely see more than 1 game a week.

Hmm. Well I guess that could be the case. Either way it's a shame that the Wii U VC is the way it is, so much potential it had.

The announcement of 200CC in MK8 struk me as an easy way for Nintendo to add replayability to the game, where they were hopefull that doing so would keep people gaming and happy, despite the lackluster lineup for the rest of the year.



However, after seeing as how ludicrously fast 200CC is, I'm beginning to suspect that this was in the cards from the beginning.  Why else would all the track be so wide (which I bemoaned when the game released), if not to accomodate to higher speed races?

So what say you fellow forumites?  Did Nintendo just look at how they could add replayability with minimum effort, or are they masters in drip-feeding us with free DLC to keep their evergreens relevant and entertaining?

Given all the DLC, new tracks, karts and enhancements I couldn't really say they are doing the bare minimum for MK8 owners. I'm more impressed that they can ramp up the speed and still deliver 60 FPS with those visuals.

Meh. Upscaled 720P + no AA. And the frame rate is still awful on 4 player split screen.

1 of which will be used to launch a screen asking you to enter the steam code in the manual, and then those 7 discs will be downloaded via Steam...

Call of Duty: Umpteenth Time is one odd bird.  Here are my thoughts while playing the first level.Ok, they are very strict on the following someone rule.  Two steps away from them and instant restart. Oh great, the machines from The Matrix just showed up.  I've got an EMP?  Ok?  Now, we are leaping in the air.  I'll jump when the guy ahead of me jumps. I don't want to stray from the mission zone.  I have smart grenades.  Seriously, they actually follow the enemy and blow his ass up.  I also have threat grenades.  You know, so I can tag all of the baddies and make everything easier.  More following.  Fuuuuu... And now, we are following.  My friend's arm is stuck.  If I had an axe, I'd so walking dead his ass now and chop it right off. Aw, he pushed me off to save me. Aww, I lost MY arm!  I sure hope I can be like Steve Austin( Not the wrestler.) Lol, pay your respects!  I forgot about that part.  Even Kevin Spacey paid his respects.  I guess I'll do my part and press square when prompted.

All of this craziness could make one heckuva gaming night for the VGPress.

I don't understand why they don't put PC games on Blu Ray at this point. I've had a Blu Ray drive in my PC for about 6 years, and they're obviously cheap now. But they keep shipping PC titles on DVD.

After 30 seconds of googling the most reliable thing I could find was a projection that 16% of notebooks by 2016 would have blu-ray, and 16.3% of PCs in 2013*. So, the vast majority of PCs don't have blu-ray drives? Plus, maybe it's cheaper to produce 7 DVDs than 1 blu-ray...?

*So, nothing reliable. Nyaa

^Once you pick up that the progression path is unconventional the game takes off.  You just have to shed some of the accumulated muscle memory you have as a gamer to ignore the immediate challenge for the one that progresses your exp (over the story).

Then it's a joy (unless you havemy PC version and hardware, in which case it was:
