I just don't understand why Nintendo thinks their only option nowadays is to come up with some crazy controller. 10 years of this now. Gamecube pad was one of the best things they did because it was a natural, normal controller evolution. But then it was like Oh, low sales for Gamecube...well I guess we can't compete with a normal system anymore. Let's come up with some gimmick controller for every console we release...you know, instead of designing a machine that does all the normal things BETTER than the other guys which is all anyone has ever asked of us. People will be so into it they won't even realize our consoles are underpowered. Except....it didn't work with Wii U. It sold worse than Gamecube. So if they're sticking to that same plan again, only changing the name to NOT-Wii, I don't get it.

The name of the game these days is multi-platform. Any console that's drastically underpowered or has a drastically different controller is not going to be supported beyond launch. So as I've said before, it may be cool but it'll be a Nintendo-only box like usual. You can't just take the consoles into the equation either...you have to add PC into the mix. Most games are shared between both formats now. If something can't be easily shared between the PC and other consoles its a game breaker.

Yep.

Slain for PC. Beautiful indie CastleVania-like. Everyone here with a PC should give it a try... except Vader cause he doesn't want games like this anymore.  Nyaa

From it's Steam page: "A heavy metal inspired combat with puzzle elements and gore galore. Stunning visuals and true old school gameplay with classic arcade combat accompanied by the most metal soundtrack you've ever heard. Prepare to be Slain! Will you accept the challenge..."

Slain looks and sounds great. I'm going to hold off until the Wii U release though. Just seems like a game that will be good on a big screen or in offscreen mode.

Now I remember what I didn't like about DOOM 3. Its way too fucking long for what it is. Gameplay is too repetitive to support the length. How many halls and labs do I need to go through before they get to the fucking point?

Okami-ism.

Are you sure about that? I've been trying to find that exact info and I haven't come across it anywhere.

Edit: Duh. Nevermind. Guess I just didn't look hard enough.

Surely my GUILTIEST pleasure of all time, but I have to admit it, I'm having a F-IN' BLAST with Senran Kagura! Never, ever did I ever think that a game where Ninja Girls battle on a beach to the point where they knock each other's clothes off would be something I would truly get into, but I'm hooked! There's 4 Ninja Schools, multiple girls per school --all-- with varying attacks and play styles. They air-dash, run on walls, collect Ninja Scrolls for big, flashy attacks and the more moves you Combo together, the higher the experience you receive... It's bright, it's challenging, it's HILARIOUS and F-U-N ! ! ! Screw the haters that would automatically look down on this game. You just have to take it for what it's worth. It's by far the most perverted game I've ever owned, and I even bought Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball back in the day, but it's so much more of a GAME, I don't CARE what people may think of me for playing it!

I simultaneously disappointed a cute guy at Best Buy when I asked him if they had this game --and-- utterly repulsed the older woman behind the pick-up counter when she looked the game over before ringing it up for me... That was just the START of the fun!!  LOL

Edit: I have no idea why, but this game keeps on making me think of the Shinobi game that was on PS2...

The NX leaks have been officially announced as a fake by the person who made them. Go ahead and proceed to get your panties unruffled if the "leak" had you scared.

GameCube: worst console with a great library ever; banal appeal to the lowest common denominator. Controller: flimsy crap, awful buttons; notwithstanding the great ergonomics. Therefore probably the most overrated console ever, second only to the DreamCast, but at least the DreamCast has an excuse for unrealistic idealisation in that it had the decency to kill the company, as a major force in gaming, that produced it; the company also responsible for shit like Sonic.

Which is to say, I like how impractical the fake NX controller appears to be. Seems, indeed, unsuable; fingers might get in the way of the action; looks like a handegg, but definitely has a strange charm to it. Craziest-looking thing Nintendo has produced since the GameCube, which looked like a toddler carry case with a Fisher Price controller. So...for the same reasons I actually love the GameCube, I love this (probably fake) NX controller. Looks like something a toddler of the 21st century would play with, not the 20th. Your toddler's first tablet...more so than the Wii U controller did, which was probably what Nintendo were going for with it.

P.S. GameInformer editor: Admits to knowing nothing about the fake NX controller in public statement; accepted by the videogame populace as industry commentary/news. lol.

Not saying that you're wrong but I'm sceptical. Nyaa

Batman v Superman is a pile of crap. A total mess of a movie where motivations switch on a whim, the plot is all over and very little works. Ben Affleck is great as Batman at least.
