Apparently the PS4 controller works on most PS3 games...you have to keep it plugged into the PS3 for it to work, but it DOES work. I believe only games that feature sixaxis controls do not work with it.

So I will be buying a PS4 controller today!

Scratch that....unfortunately the PS4 controller does not come with a fucking charge cable. Because why in the world would you want an extra cable? And apparently, they do not sell them separately from the console, and the cable has a different shape on the end than the PS3 cables, so you can't use those.

So basically, if you want a PS4 controller to use on the PS3 or PC, you're fucked. Unless you want to buy the entire console.

LAME LAME LAME.

Haven't been in the mood for posting this week.

I think only Vader noticed the Mario 3D World reviews which are mega awesome 10/10 stuff

Eurogamer 10/10

Compact by the standards of the Galaxy adventures but still loaded with bountiful secrets, beneath the warm familiarity of 3D World lies one of the strangest Mario games in years - or at least one of the most random in its influences and its moment-to-moment indulgences. And that's a very, very good thing. The Wii U sees Nintendo's mascot racing into venerable middle age by going wonderfully loopy - by dialling up the energy, even if the end result is often absolutely insane. After all these years, who could blame him?

Destructoid 10/10

There was a moment where I was taking in the beautiful soundtrack, hovering over a tricky jump as cat Peach, and watching the glistening water below where the game really came together. It was then that I realized that Super Mario 3D World had achieved a level of platforming design that's close to perfection, and there was almost never a moment where I didn't have a smile on my face. This is the unequivocally the best Mario game since Galaxy 2, and it shows up anything the "New" series has ever done, and then some.



Good work, Nintendo.

Nintendo World Report 10/10

Thankfully 3D World isn’t just a refinement of the Mario formula, it’s a powerful re-imagining. It’s an explosive cavalcade of color and excitement as well as a well thought out evolution of Mario. The plot even deviates (although not too wildly) from what you might expect in a Mario game, giving you some silly surprises amidst the parade of unlockable content. This is one Mario game you’ll want to play well after the credits roll and might just be the killer app of the Wii U. Not since Super Mario World have I been so in love with a Mario game.

Nintendolife 10/10

This is a definitive 3D Mario experience, successfully finding a middle-ground between the iconic Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Galaxy. You may not swing Bowser by his tail or run upside down, but it’s bursting with creativity nonetheless, while delivering on the craft and skill that defines the Tokyo EAD studio. It’s unmissable.

Darkstation 10/10

Super Mario 3D World is both gorgeous and about as enjoyable as a video game can be. There is an immense amount of depth that kept me coming back for more, time and time again. This is the rare type of game that I believe ten years down the road we will be coming back and playing again and again. It’s that good. For all those worried that the Wii U was going to fall into some dark oblivion, fret not, your savior is here and its Super Mario 3D World one of the best platformers ever made.

Gamereactor Sweden 10/10

CVG 10/10

It's perhaps best summed up by its soundtrack, where bouncy strings meet gently percussive tropical themes, chiming Christmas bells, jaunty accordions, and energetic shamisen and shakuhachi. While its rare orchestral manoeuvres are among the musical highlights, it's telling that there's little of Galaxy's bombast. As the fervour for next-gen hardware reaches its crescendo, EAD Tokyo has quietly gone about the business of making the best game you'll play this Christmas.



There's no clarion call of trumpets to herald the arrival of Super Mario 3D World. And yet, of all the games released in the next couple of months, it might deserve the biggest fanfare of them all.

The Guardian 5/5

To some, Super Mario may appear tired: a mascot whom Nintendo trots out every few years to sell another console with repackaged but fundamentally stale ideas. Super Mario 3D World is a fierce rebuttal to the accusation. Mario and his makers once again assert their dominance of spatial navigation games, displaying a rude abundance of ideas to delight, surprise and celebrate innocence and playfulness.

Digitalspy 5/5

Like 3D Land on the 3DS before it, Super Mario 3D World is a must have for existing owners and enough for anyone on the fence to make the plunge.



Similarly, while it isn't a strong case for the Wii U's unique features, that doesn't make it anything less special. It's platforming perfection, brimming with clever ideas and flawless execution.

Venturebeat 97/100

When taken as a whole (the single-player refinements, the visuals, the music, and the multiplayer), Super Mario 3D World is my favorite 3D Mario and the best game I’ve played in 2013.

IGN 9.6/10

Gametrailers. 9.5

Spaziogames 9.5/10

TechnoBuffalo 9.5/10

Personally speaking, there hasn’t been a Mario game like this for me since Super Mario World. I love the Galaxy games, but the SNES entry always got my nod for the best of the best. Super Mario 3D World approaches that level. The lens of nostalgia might keep the older game in higher regards for me, but this Super Mario 3D World is simply fantastic.



It’s one of my new favorites.

Official Nintendo Magazine 93/100

It's a game that feels totally familiar both in the elements we recognise and in the fact that there's far more beyond them. It seems, after you spend so many years espousing the cult of invention above all things, that becomes a religion in itself. Praise be.

4Gamers: 92/100

Super Mario 3D World is nothing revolutionary, but a combination of new and interesting elements make it one of the best platformers out nowadays. Graphically, it is mint and the cat outfit will entice you more than you care to admit. Lack of an online multiplayer gets softened with the addition of online ghosts and obviously, the presence of several other friends on your couch.

Digitalchumps 9.2/10

Super Mario 3D World isn’t Super Mario Galaxy or New Super Mario Bros.; it’s a little bit of both. Under a thick layer of polish and charm, you’ll find yet another top-notch platforming adventure, chocked full of secrets and clever twists and about as challenging as anything Mario has thrown our way thus far. It isn’t groundbreaking or approaching the level of perfection that the Galaxy games did, but if nothing else, it’s a must-have title for Wii U owners, and probably enough to push you over the edge if you’re waiting to buy a system and harbor an appreciation for Nintendo’s platforming contributions.

Polygon 9/10

Super Mario 3D World doesn't reinvent the Mario formula. But it is in every way its own game, with a bright, joyful aesthetic that's supported by inspired level design and a cast that matters. It gets the balance right between nostalgic touches and clever new twists, and never once let me down with a boring boss or too-familiar retread. In all my years of playing with the Mario gang, I've never been quite so happy to hurl myself into the unknown, and 3D World delivers challenge, surprise and joy in almost every moment.

Everyeye 9/10

Kotaku - YES

SM3DW is a fantastic game. Just...fun, from beginning to "end". I had a smile on my face almost the entire time. It's packed with charm from front to back, contains some memorable levels and provides seamless multiplayer fun. If you own a Wii U, congratulations, your wait for a truly special game for the system is over.P



It's just a shame that it couldn't do a better job of evangelising the platform for those still on the sidelines. Then again, if somebody can't get excited about one of the best Nintendo games in years, there's no helping them.

Gamespot 9/10

Sure, co-op play is hardly a game changer, but when so much of 3D World is so successfully built upon a bevy of brilliant ideas, this can be forgiven. Everything that you can see and do within its enchanting levels is so bright, colourful, and full of wonder that it's impossible not to be taken in by its charms. Mario has always had that uncanny ability to cross the boundaries of age and gender, to bring a smile to the face of every player who crosses his path. Super Mario 3D World is no different. This is a dazzlingly inventive game that brings the fun in spades, and will leave you grinning like a loon from start to finish.

Shacknews 9/10

Super Mario 3D World is a tightly-designed platformer, raucously fun in multiplayer, and a master's class in level design. Don't pass it off as just another Mario game. This one is not to be missed.

EDGE 9/10

It seems odd that Nintendo should release a Mariohelmed game at all in a year supposedly devoted to his brother, let alone one that should prove to be Wii U’s best game to date. Yet there is more than fraternal rivalry at stake here. In the same month that its platform holder rivals debut their new hardware, Nintendo has issued a timely reminder that it is games that sell systems, while also setting a new visual benchmark for the most treasured series in gaming. This is Mario like you’ve never seen him before, and unlike so many of his next-gen rivals, he nips along at an effortless 60fps. If the true measure of new hardware’s worth is how stark the difference is between it and what came before, then this is the most next-gen game that 2013 has yet produced.

Metro.co.uk 9/10

If only this had been a launch game instead of New Super Mario Bros. U we can only speculate how the fortunes of the Wii U might have turned out. But it’s demeaning to talk of 3D World merely in terms of how it can help it’s host format. This is a great video game and one of the best to be released all year, no matter what hardware it runs on.

Joystiq 5/5

Put simply, Super Mario 3D World is stunning. Its world is beautiful, its design is impeccable, and its fun is infectious. I'm running out of superlatives here, so let me finish where I started: Go play it.

Jeuxvideo 17/20

Gamer.nl 8.5/10

Escapist 4/5

Perhaps most importantly, while you don't necessarily get a plethora of wholly new sights and sounds, you do get a whole lot of game for your money. There are a lot of levels, a lot of ways to play through them, a lot of secrets to uncover, a whole bonus game (the original arcade Mario Bros reconfigured to star dueling Luigis) embedded in the title screen and... well, I won't spoil, but suffice it to say there's actually quite a bit left to see, do and unlock even after you've "beaten" the game.

You thought you could avoid this?

Over 100 pictures showing why Animal Crossing New Leaf is the best one yet (YOU! Tight Ass!)

You were wrong.

From my own personal playthrough, part 1 here, part 2 scroll down the page

AziEyyM.jpg

This is my new Town Hall, yet you got that right, I converted it into an Arabian Palace.
n67JCYm.jpg

The game allows you to visit other peoples towns online, even when they are not online. This is Nintyfans house I think, me chilling on his custom designed bedspread

Gracie from City folk appears to rate what you're wearing, meet her demands and she will eventually open up a high end boutique on the high street selling designer clothers and furniture.

You can build a variety of bridges in town and put them where you want, this is my wooden bridge.

This is Club LOL on Saturday nights where KK does performances.

Lobo, I miss you.
RR7An1x.jpg

When you start the game it's hard to see the changes from City Folk but more than ever this is an AC game with legs. The game opens up gradually and stays the distance. There is more to see and do in this game then ever and construction is a part of it. The high street regularly upgrades.

Click the doghouse and a little dog appears, or his demon eyes at least...

Just another of the little touches added to this game, also the animals are more intelligent than ever I don't know how they keep track of it all. Sometimes another animal will tell you if someone is sick.

I was missing an amber.

Saharah changes your carpets, sometimes screws you.

Eventually a night club will open in town and you can catch some of the animals there or watch KK do a personalised lightshow tribute to you!
doVXMC4.jpg

Brilliantly the animals in the game now do what you do, activities you mean. You will actively see them fishing, bug hunting, talking to eachother, trawling the beaches, shaking trees and planting and watering flowers. It feels much more real and as the pic above shows, they have the dialogue to back it up too.

I've read about 20 pages of the PS4 Remote Play GAF thread over the past week and it seems to have just as many complaints as it does compliments. Seems over the internet it's very spotty and even via the best method - Direct connect, some people are still having problems. Whilst when it works well, it's great, it doesn't seem to be 100% working for everybody. There are reports of cramping hands on Vita, laggy inputs, delayed sound, missed frames. It's not horrible all the time or anything but some people can accept it, some can't.

Seems to work best with 3rd person games.

The PS3 one takes one of the standard USB plugs.  I hope they haven't gone and made a proprietory USB plug for the PS4 that would be lame as fuck

And apparently, they do not sell them separately from the console, and the cable has a different shape on the end than the PS3 cables, so you can't use those.

So basically, if you want a PS4 controller to use on the PS3 or PC, you're fucked. Unless you want to buy the entire console.

LAME LAME LAME.

The PS3 one takes one of the standard USB plugs.  I hope they haven't gone and made a proprietory USB plug for the PS4 that would be lame as fuck

Pretty sure one side of the PS3 controller is USB and the other is proprietory. Same with the PS4.

No man, seriously it's pretty standard.  I use the same cable for my DS3, my passport, my card-reader etc.  I don't even have the cable that came in the PS3 box.

Apparently the PS4 controller works on most PS3 games...you have to keep it plugged into the PS3 for it to work, but it DOES work. I believe only games that feature sixaxis controls do not work with it.

So I will be buying a PS4 controller today!

Nice, but why doesnt the sixaxis stuff work?

PC gamers are reporting PC ports of AC4 and the new NFS are shit.

I've read about 20 pages of the PS4 Remote Play GAF thread over the past week and it seems to have just as many complaints as it does compliments. Seems over the internet it's very spotty and even via the best method - Direct connect, some people are still having problems. Whilst when it works well, it's great, it doesn't seem to be 100% working for everybody. There are reports of cramping hands on Vita, laggy inputs, delayed sound, missed frames. It's not horrible all the time or anything but some people can accept it, some can't.

Seems to work best with 3rd person games.

Close the stream  worked mostly great, I did have a moment where it freaked. Away from it  it only worked sporatically but its still amazing that I can play my PS4 away from it. If they ever get it to work as it should meaning any good internet connection should be a gateway to your ps4 it will be incredible. My main fear is that my upload in my house is not good enough to have a steady stream away.
