    Nintendo Wii U

    Well I'd really like to talk about Pikmin instead, but I'm a dirty American and must wait a few more days. It will be glorious.

    It is. Just finished it. Owning a WiiU and not owning Pikmin3 should be punishable by only having Brushfire's posts to read for all eternity.

    Seriously awesome game!

    BioShock Infinite

    I really don't understand all the praise this game is getting. It is good, but some people are selling it as the second coming of Christ.

    The only noteworthy parts are the beginning (the ascent to Columbia was awesome) and the end (yay! Rapture!), the middle is just meh. It's an "enter a room, kill everyone, enter the next one, kill everyone there" (the Good Time Club "trial" is a perfect example, completely unnecessary) loop broken by Lizzie's angsty moments.

    I played in Hard difficulty and found Vigors to be quite underwhelming. Like Crowbar Man, I used only Murder of Crows (for people) and Shock Jockey (for Patriots/Turrets) 95% of the time as they were the most effective ones. Same goes for the weapons, I tried all of them as I found them but winded up using the Carbine/Sniper Rifle combo for the great majority of the game.

    Handymen seem to be some kind of afterthought to me, no real reason for their existence and fighting them was nothing special. They just go around Hulk-smashing everything until you Crow them and unload a clip of sniper rounds/missiles on their chest. I liked Patriots much more.

    All in all, it's a very pretty, very well produced game. I loved all the musical references in it and the voice acting was top notch, but I really feel it's lacking in the gameplay area.

    Daft Punk - Random Access Memories (new album)

    I was very underwhelmed after my first listen. I was expecting Discovery-levels of awesome and it didn't quite deliver. Some tracks are awesome some not that much, The Game of Love and Instant Crush, are the worst tracks IMHO.

    But I've since listened to the whole album quite a bit of times and I must say that it has completely grown on me. The Pharrell/Rodgers tracks are awesome and the Moroder one is specially cool, even though it seems I'm listening to Schwarzenegger for the intro.

    I think RAM can't be compared to any of Daft Punk's previous albums it's just something completely different.

    It certainly wasn't the game it was hyped up to be, but for what it was, it was fun and enjoyable. I think people are just afraid that Zombi U (do you fight Zombiis in it? lol) won't live up to the hype. At this point I think it's a given that the game will be good, but maybe not as good as people are hoping.

    This, basically. It's not like I hated Red Steel I was just... disappointed.

    I was just afraid people would ridicule me for siding with Nintendo on the grounds these people can't recall when Sony and Microsoft mistreated gamers like Nintendo did with Wii Music

    I'm sorry, I fail to understand how Wii Music is mistreating gamers.

    Was it a horrible game? Yes. Worse than any other shovelware game out there? Don't think so. It's not like you were FORCED to buy it...

    I don't know, maybe you have some special reasoning behind that statement that I just fail to grasp.

    "HEY LOOK YOU GOT A BEETLE IT SGDFGD"

    "HEY LOOK YOU GOT SLIME IT SGNDFGDFGHDJH"

    this shit has got to stop. holy shit it was bad in zelda games before, but now it happens EVERY.TIME.YOU.TURN.THE.GAME.ON

    it acts like you never picked up anything before. holy SHIT is this awful.

    Lol, overreacting much? This is a very minor nuisance, not nearly as bad as you put it. IMHO.
