Yeah around that much, and they'll throw out limited physical copies.

This is what Super Mario Bros. U should've been. I'm looking forward to this even though me and my friends will probably plow through it in two days.

Ok.

Except they showed maybe one good game, lol.

Kepp in mind that many people love games that are just hollywood fireworks, sad but true. This will prevent MS from being completely destroyed.

What.

500 pounds?! Fuck that!

That was supposed to be euros, its like 420 pounds or something.

499$
499â'¬

What.

So far I've seen games that are either horribly unimaginative or too ambitious for their own sake, people who say graphics aren't the focus and then immediately point out how the next video will is ingame footage rendered in realtime, broadcasting features ala PS4, a Wii U gamepad and the world record for the most misuses of the word innovation.

Snap out of it son! Don't give in!

I'm can't believe I'm looking forward to a playable demo. Maybe the Sonic cycle is a thing of the past.

Although I don't like the way her journalism went so far I'll wait for part 3 until I judge her.

I completely agree. If you sell your car the manufacturer doesn't come by and demand a cut. You own the product you've bought so it is basically illegal for them to do that.

Am I the only one the trailer reminds of space jam? (The six antagonists)

The casing melts instantly if it has no internet connection.

Probably at E3.

Oh cool now I can watch TV on my TV.

DDO at least felt somewhat D&Dish though. The problems with this game were that they picked a shitty setting and that it aged really badly.

No, these "rolls" are generated and repeat if you reroll enough. It's just there so that it looks like D&D.

Each class plays a super important role during dungeons, trickster rogues can sneak ahead and seek traps while your guardian and cleric are fighting mobs together. Without giving much away, that's all I'll stay.

The amount of available D&D classes is abysmal even for an open beta and you are shoehorned into specific roles instead of being able to develop your character yourself. Why are there two fighter classes? Why didn't they make the offensive one barbarian? Where are druids, rangers, bards, sorcerers, multiclassing and most importantly gnomes? D&D is about unique character development and "what would/can my character do in this situation?" moments but this is taken from you in order to appeal to the broad mass of people who think RPG translates to "stats and leveling up".

Also obligatory "4th ED sucks"

Why not a first person shooter?

Games that come close to this are the Icewind Dale and Baldurs Gate series.

This is debatable. I know quite a few artists who create just for self-fulfillment and know they are talented without others telling them. I can only assume you meant the field of professional-artist-who-wants-to-make-a-living-from-it.

After Ganon is defeated in the future Link is sent back 7 years to live out his childhood, hence the events of Majoras Mask can take place.

With that being said, you cannot involve time travel in your plot and not have plot holes. See Bioshock Infinite.

I agree, the story is meh but the gameplay was awesome once you got into it.

Well the PS4 will probably be able to use a Vita as a touch gamepad but as far as I know Legends will come out on PS3.

Is the demo still on the Eshop, I think I should try it out, I've only played Rayman 3 the hoodlum havoc and it was pretty damn great in my opinion.

It's still there, the first level is a little too focused on the gamepad thing but that's alright, just bring 1-3 friends along and you'll have fun.

I just feel that it would be well deserved to get something special for the U version

Wii U players will get to experience the game how it was intended by the developers, unlike Xbox/PS players.

Watch your clothing folds bro, right now they are a bit messy. Look up some tutorials or simply observe how other people do it and you'll notice how different your character will look with every fold in the right place.

Super Mario World 1 & 2 had the best physics and overall gameplay in my opinion, I always tend to compare other 2D platformers to these two.

Aka the people who are concerned about the distribution of the hardware with 6-11 year olds and the ones who published Skylanders, a game whose purpose is to suck money out of this target demographic.

Now where's my dramatic chipmunk simulator?

My symbols tend to turn invisible when my memory is almost full, but I'm not sure if that's your problem. Try changing your movie clips into graphic symbols and see if that helps. (under properties)
