IGN article wrote no shortage, and no line. For now. That may well change this Friday.

Ah ZombiU... You have repeated your mistakes just like Red Steel last time. Such great ideas, but poor executions.

I'd still buy it just to see how long I can survive in that world though.

One reviewer from EuroGamer seems to have a different take on this. I won't be surprise if this was just not how the typical "hardcore" enthusiastic gamer expected it to be.

Eg. U can see how "happy" they were when talking about the multiplayer and from the video u can see it's typical FPS gameplay that is craved ...

read the Forbes review. Or even Kotaku's. Those people seem to know what the hell is going on.

Or we're just too pampered?

my view is that some have been skewed towards how a survival horror game "should be" in current times (FPS/action infused)

versus the type of survival horror of RE (one).

of course reviews are of opinions and if you follow enough of the particular reviewer of any site ... you should understand better whether their bias/inclination/opinion leans towards yours or otherwise.

Those reviewers wants ZombiU to be an FPS. I'd rather like the fact that ZombiU harks back to the days of the first Resident Evil, where you can feel the tension in the atmosphere. FPSes have that tense feeling but in spurts. In ZombiU, I feel, that you are on CONSTANT lookout on your environment, and that build a realistic enough stress mirroring an actual zombie apocalypse.

Look out the window, in case Zombie-dog smashed in.
Yes I agree with u! I already have Halo for FPS, now I need a decent survival horror.

great effort from Nintendo UK. kudos




i wonder if Nintendo US is slacking or just avoiding their ads being too "casual oriented"

but the opening message itself drives the point immediately (for those seemingly out of gaming radar potential buyers)

One game it probably won't be getting, however, is Metro: Last Light, the upcoming sequel to Metro 2033.

Why? For one thing, "[The] Wii U has a horrible, slow CPU," as 4A Games Chief Technical Officer Oles Shishkovtsov put it rather bluntly.
Is he right?

I had Metro 2033 on the PC, it ran like tahi rosmah even on med settings inside small small caves, and it never used more than one CPU rclxub.gif

Key question I would ask is "was the game itself any good or different or better than any other in similar genre".

Anyone can blabber and give their "expert opinion" too easily these days (and I'm going with the assumption that the dev really said what is allegedly reported)

At the end of the day I guess action and results show better than talk alone. CoD Black Ops II seem to work pretty well even at launch on the Wii U ...

Do ponder

lol wondering the same thing..

anyway.. metro is unoptimized piece of tahi.. the developer sucks at optimized programming.. so whatever they say regarding performance is irrelevant.. simple as that
