Wii U Winning Console War in my house to ?


[link to this post]
 
My thoughts exactly.

Never ever thought i would spend so much time on a Nintendo Wii U when i have a Playstation 4 and a Xbox One,just goes to show its games that make consoles regardless of how much power and Grunt they have.

And lets face it apart from a couple of decent games on both systems there is nothing ground breaking here and the Wii has a lovely set of games and Mario 3d is just fantastic along with Pikmin 3.

Only the month of March will drag me away from my Wii U at present and I'm seriously thinking of dumping both Ryse and Dead Rising 3 and picking up a couple more Wii U games.

Don't get me wrong i love Killzone shadowfall but it hasn't gripped me like i thought it would and Battlefield 4 i have yet to really get into because the draw for me since owning it is the Wii U�..wink

I agree which is why I am quite happy to wait a while before getting a PS4.

And it's around March that the so called bigger games get released Trance so I'm conceding that there was no real reason to own either a Playstation 4 or Xbox launch console because there just really isn't the software apart from Battlefield that looks in a different league from the older consoles.

Yeah I was a big BF player and I do have the urge to play that a bit but on the other hand I am enjoying playing a variety of games rather than having all my time taken up by one multiplayer game.

March.. is that when Watchdogs comes out? that's a game that definitely interests me.

Its listed as March but not cast in stone by Ubisoft yet ? also we have a few of the bigger next generation games like Titanfall Xbox one on March 11th and Infamous second Son On Playstation 4 around the 21st March and we have the Thief game in feb that looks interesting but its not the kind of game that has me really dribbling with anticipation wink

It will probably be later then. IGN have it down as quarter 2 of 2014.

Infamous is not for me...I played some of the second one which I thought was great to begin with, the super powers you have and climbing/jumping around the city was fun but I soon got bored of it... seemed very repetitive to me but maybe I didn't give it enough of a chance.

Thief looks good and I do like stealth games but I rather a present day/futuristic setting.

I've not yet played any of the Thief games. The last one looked good but initially I did not like stealth based games from having tried one of the Splinter Cell demos. It's something you get into though I feel, having played a few games where a stealthy approach was either essential or just much easier. It's a hard temptation to not kill everything sometimes. tongue

Anyone remember Tenchu Stealth Assassins back in the day? I had it on the original Playstation and that game demanded a different playing style and was quite a steep learning curve. I still look back on that title with fondness as its voice acting was so shockingly bad it was awesome! Ah great days.

It's a shame you haven't given BF4 a bit more time er, Timey! But I understand you've been busy enjoying Zelda and everything and that essentially is what games are all about, enjoyment! Funny how that element can be overlooked sometimes in the more serious FPS genre. crazy

BF4 update? Yeah, to think. 650mbs isn't exactly a small update is it? Wasn't long ago you could fit a whole game into that? A whole CD!

650mb is ridiculous when you consider some people still have to put up with sub standard connections!! I guess the only good thing is that the new consoles and the ps3 with a ps+ sub will download the updates even when you're not on the console!!
