NINTENDO ALLEGEDLY FUNDING NX-EXCLUSIVE BEYOND GOOD AND EVIL 2

Please be true

Beyond Good and Evil was a one of a kind game, with one of the hardest end game bosses i've ever faced (if not, the hardest)

Great move from Nintendo, now get Intelligent Systems and Retro working on something relevant and not portable related, bin all the Yoshi and Kirby game, make a proper console for normal human beings, get better 3rdpart games and focus on relevant first party games (no Hyrule warriors, nintendoland, captain toad, etc)

They have all the assets to come back next gen, question is, do they wanna focus on amiibo and 3DS's 2 customers? (jay and LS)

Well if the rumours of them being a console/portable hybrid are true they won't have to focus on 3DS as it would all be under one umbrella.

It would make sense from a business point of view so they can focus completely on one system instead of splitting their audience.

We'll see what happens, a good Nintendo is healthy for the industry as a whole and while I don't really believe in them as much as I did I would hope for the best naturally.

Oh btw Amiibo isn't going to stop, it makes them ridiculous amounts of money. But I personally don't see how it limits them from making good games, as at the end of the day they are toys lol.

3DS still has more console sales than PS4 (not for long though) despite competing with the omnipotent mobile market.

It frankly has better games released at more frequent intervals than Consoles at this point.

Also, the Wii U has more worthwhile exclusives than PS4 and XBone combined. There is no reason to buy those two if you have a half decent PC or Laptop.

Its just an under-appreciated console, like the Dreamcast (RIP) was.

None of that is true tbh, well the exclusives part in favour of Wii U is true but it's meaningless when you consider third party advantage.

Not everyone wants to play on PC, even if they have the ability to get a powerful enough one.

Lionhead Studios closed and Fable Legends cancelled

that's pretty big

I really enjoyed Fable 2 on 360

Fable 3 was garbage though

Would have been big before Molyneux left, now there are just sort of there.

Or where anyway

Agree on Fable 2, one of the first single player games on the 360 i really enjoyed.

thought molyneux was still there/owned them lol

he's a scrub anyway

Nah he left a while back, formed his own studio in 2012.

I agree that he's a scrub btw, but it would have had a bigger impact if it happened while he was there as he's one of the more famous developers.

My (and a lot of people's) concerns with Molyneux is that he overpromises so much and ultimately underdelivers. Watch the mechanics he showed in E3 on Fable 2 before it released, he makes it seem as if there are layers and layers of gameplay, when it was just simple. Also, most people thought it was gonna be open world, it wasn't.

Yep, i have no doubt he knows what he's doing. He wouldn't have had success otherwise. But his knack of basically playing the hype guy and not being able live up to it is a very annoying trait he has.

btw, are you getting TP remake?

I've replayed it like 5 times lol, not sure if i'll get it

I was going to lol, but i dunno if i cba atm. I might eventually, it's my favourite Zelda despite how divided most people are on it.

Its my 2nd fav after WW, funnily enough, i hated SS, just didn't feel like a Zelda game to me

I liked SS when i played it, but i got stuck and just stopped lol.

see you all on the division tomorrow

Who else on here is getting it, apart from you? Personally, I hope their focus, time, effort and money spent on The Division does not pay off, and Ubisoft start to realize that they can't churn out 10 half-arsed games at the same time and still expect people to be happy about it. Inb4 they release Ghost Recon and all hope of getting any bug fixes and/or customer support for The Division becomes a distant dream I am seriously curious about what kind of micro-transaction system they'll eventually introduce in The Division, though

nVidia is releasing a 75W version of the 950. This is pretty significant because it replaces the 750 Ti in the tier of videocards that can fit go in any PC because no external power is required other than what the PCI-E slot is supposed to provide. So for $100-$120 you have a console equivalent card and what will probably be $150-$170 card that can fit into any ghetto pc and be a step up from consoles.

Trying to save a young boy from purgatory . That's my guess, not much of a back story is given.

Maybe it's a nightmare.

Game is quite fun though, up until I reached that damn point.

So you are trying to get that boy to the other side?

how about put to boxes half on half to make it like a stair case and then jump?

Had to check youtube. Had to place them one on top of the other. Obvious and I missed it. feel like a dumbass

RG yh that's what I had to do.
