What do you consider retro? Because we talk about that quite often here.

Odyssey 2 up till about the Dreamcast, I guess...

I just made a post 32 bit intros thread the other day and we have a gameboy anniversary thread now, so...???

Motion to start calling ninthings "Homo Nintendonus"?

'ninthing' is so perfect though, it's a drinky creation right?

shaka you seem like an expert, what's your take on ManGod, he's been around forever but i'm always picking up yuzo-ish leanings from him, though his trolling and defense forcing is more subtle

I really want Sunset Overdrive, and I think I'm the only one.

I'll probably never get an Xbox One, but this is the only game I'm sad I'll miss out on.  I've always had a soft spot for Insomniac.  First 3 Ratchet games were gdlk.

Aside from that I can't name a single upcoming game I'm excited for.  Haven't had nearly as much time for games in the past couple years and eventually stopped following all the gaming outlets I used to check for.  I thought I'd be playing a lot more lately since I'm  home for the summer, but I've found a couple projects to occupy my time.

This year's E3 was pretty underwhelming too.

So many games this fall. Some of them might be great. Just wish I could discuss them here. Too bad this site is on that "LMAO AAA games/I am teh real gamer" shit.

Who would've thought that an anti-GAF site would dislike AAA games. Must be a coincidence :hitler

All that good taste on one site :hitler

not our fault the AAA game foundry has been complete shit since 2009-10

I'm gonna be renting:

Destiny
Shadow Warrior
Shadow Of Mordor
Drive Club
Evil Within
AC: Unity
Advance Warfare
Far Cry 4
Dragon Age 3

Lords Of The Fallen is from the plebs that developed Enemy Front, which means it'll be mediocre at best and complete dogshit at worst. I was gonna rent Evolve but that shit got delayed.
Alien Isolation looked cool at first but the added android enemies and original cast DLC is :pacspit

Kind of wish I had my PS3 here, I got backlogged shit on that too. Have actually been thinking about picking up a Wii U since there's enough games now for me to beat in a month(queue Andrex looking through my post history to find where I said I would never buy it).

Tbh I'd forgotten about it until this post. What would definitely trigger it would you saying you're looking forward to the new Zelda.

I like the campy style and the rail grinding/shooting gameplay the game has, it was one of the few games on the XB1 that caught my attention, but it's doubtful I'd purchase the system for that, when PS4 will probably end up having more of the games I'm into in the long run.

Pretty sad state of affairs that I've not bought a new console this generation and I don't feel like I've missed out on anything and can't see anything worth it coming up. All the first party stuff is just generic trash or remakes.

:heh

kinda is if you have a halfway decent pc.  at least for the next while.  sony and ms both seem to having an extraordinarily hard time getting things rolling on the new consoles.

Maybe it has changed since I last checked, but has Sony released anything aimed at the Japanese market to sell the PS4? Last time I checked it was getting outsold by the WiiU and generally flailing. Obviously it's doing well in the US but I'm kind of surprised at how western centric things have been thus far.

E3 is mostly an excuse to kick it with friends and camp out on food trucks behind the convention center.

that sentence doesn't do my life any favors

I don't really care about the WiiU because I only have a passing interest in Nintendo's anemic first party output. Which leaves jack shit else to look forward to on the console because third parties aren't making games for it. Can't even secure a version of Capcom's barebones REmake port. At this point Hyrule Warriors would be the only reason why I'd want one before I ditch it in a corner to pick up dust like most current owners are doing.

Meanwhile PS+ is giving me two "free" PS4 games a month and even has constant indie releases every other week. Even if Sony's first party titles have the same "delay" as Nintendo's, I still have new games to play every month. And hell, unlike Nintendo, Sony hasn't killed off the PS3 yet so that's another system that keeps getting games I want, which I'm also getting PS+ games for. There's really no reason for me to even consider a WiiU right now.

I've been closely studying a pack of wild ninthings lately, namely JoeM82, a specimen most fascinating. But I'm wondering if I'm getting too close, I'm afraid this might take a Dances With Wolves turn. I've already started playing Wii U games more than any other system. :dayum

You mean "Serebii?" The dude that keeps the Japanese Celebi Pokemon name for his fansight except on GAF? The same dude that "heatwaved" the Wii U selling dismally?

...Ah, yeah, you do.

Tell me this: have you pontificated whether or not a heat wave might provide a plausible explanation in regards to underwhelming software sales? If so, it's time to stop what you're doing.

When did this thread turn into The Real Housewives Of The Bore?

When hasn't it been?

i don't think anyone's arguing against the idea that you'd be better off with one of the HD twins than any of the next-gen* consoles right now.

and i do want to clarify that i said if you have a half-decent pc, the wiiU is the best choice of the next-gen* consoles.  since, if you have a half-decent pc, all those indie games coming out on the ps4 are years old and a fraction of the price.

:gurl No. Nintendo games have no appeal to me outside of two IP's (Pokemon and Metroid). One is dead/dormant, the other is a yearly cash-cow that won't ever get a console release... so that leaves third parties (which are dead) and indies... which... ironically enough... are nearly as old as the PS4 ports if coming to Steam.

I'd still honestly rather get a PS4 or X-box over a Wii U.

Himu

  • Senior Member
I felt that the best of ps4 and xbone are also available on pc. So there's not much incentive to get a ps4, for example, because I can play Destiny on Steam next year and not miss out on anything. Same with Battlefield, Call of Duty, whatever. Thing is, the exclusives don't look enticing to me either, and there's an absolute lack of Japanese games on the systems - my prime interest - I see virtually no benefits over choosing a current gen system over buying a new pc, and as Oscar already said, I already have a semi-decent one which makes things worse. So personally, Nintendo fills in a niche of game types and games that look refreshing one can't play anywhere else. It's not that I don't understand WHY someone would find Xbox One more interesting, but I question MS and Sony's motivations to try to continue to cater to these sort of games and gamers in this environment given that PC is rising in popularity tremendously, to be short-term and very, very short-sighted. showing their systems off in this way isn't going to do a thing to deter that since, as said, all of these games are coming to Steam or Origin or whatever.

Basically, this past E3, Sony and MS have told me there's no longer any reason to buy a console. Console exclusivity and uniqueness now seem like a look in the past. Nintendo, however brought it.

My opinion of course, and I never said that it wasn't subjective.

well, obviously if you have no interest in nintendo first party titles, you're not going to be interested in nintendo console exclusives.  do i really have to be so pedantic as to outline that in detail? 

if that's the case, you really shouldn't be bothering with any of the next-gen* consoles at the moment (if you have a decent pc).  they're not going to rise in price, and there's sweet fuck all of worth coming out on them exclusive-wise.

but, like, do whatever makes you happiest with your money.  my giveafucks for console gaming are down to nil these days, so i'm not going to be all that fun to have a console slapfight with.

Right, but I'm getting into the "slapfight" with you because this line: "and i do want to clarify that i said if you have a half-decent pc, the wiiU is the best choice of the next-gen* consoles." grinds my gears from Nintards. "Oh, but if you have a PC you should get a Nintendo console for the best of both worlds! :smug"

"What if I have no interest in Nintendo titles, though?  ???"

" :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o *silence*"

As it is, MS and Sony will get "exclusives." Microsoft in the sense of Halo and Gears and niche IP's like Phantom Dust (which will tip me toward that console in a purchase decision) while Sony gets Naughty Dog and QuanticDream movies-as-games (which I don't mind the former, hate the later), and other shit that'll bomb because their exclusives are as weak as Nintendos but don't have the manchildren nostalgia people to prop it up.

In all honesty though: If you don't give a damn about exclusives, you should go PC for the fact that most titles (outside of JRPGs but it seems Japanese devs are slowly learning the power of Steam/PC) on consoles from third parties are going to be there now. There is really no excuse to buy a console now a days outside of a few dead/dying genres.

And sadly, mobile won't fix those genres (fighters, some arcade style stuff. I guess it can kinda fix JRPGs but "dat battery life, doe").

ehn, if you're classifying me as a nintard, we definitely have nothing to talk about.  i'm one of the more vocal haters of nintendo's consoles post-snes and was pretty much the first person to call the wiiU being a crater-level extinction event for the company.  all i'm saying is that if you own a decent pc and all other factors are equal (such as you don't have an axe to grind with a particular's company's first-party offerings), for the next year or so, the wiiU is the best choice of a very fucking sorry lot of consoles.

but again, it doesn't matter.  they're all three going to die sooner (wiiU) or later (the other two, but bone first, lol).

Nah, bb. Not you just that general sentiment/statement is made by the Nintendo-love-in crowd and again: grinds my gears because it's totally ignoring the elephant in the room: All three consoles have shit exclusives. Nintendo has their "fans" that prop those up. Sony doesn't have a huge fanbase like Nintendo to prop them up and well... MS pumps out yearly Forza/Halo/Gears titles because those sold millions so might as well milk the fanbase if able.

I will give MS props for at least expanding their "exclusives" outside the norm when they want to. Stuff like Phantom Dust, B&K: Nuts and Bolts, and Fable (though that one isn't amazing) at least attempt to do different takes on "traditional" gameplay and genres.
