    Hardware Should I buy the wii u over ps4 and Xbox one?

    At this point in Nintendo's lifespan, a person should only ever be buying a Nintendo console if they like Nintendo's first-party offerings. I do, and I am happy with my Wii U. That said, because a Nintendo console is just that (a console solely for Nintendo games), I do have a PS4 also to deal...

    If only one is possible, 60 FPS or 1080p?

    As per ShadowSoldier, I'm wrong :grog: 60FPS for me

    Dragon Quest 1-8 coming to smartphones

    heh, I guess you missed the sarcasm (as well as the rest of the post). I think games like these are prime candidates to be ported to smartphones and tablets. I have no problem with it whatsoever. More platforms for a game (as long as the game is suited for said platform) is never a bad thing in...

    Dragon Quest 1-8 coming to smartphones

    A turn-based, menu driven RPG on a touch screen? How could they?! The truth is a lot of parents I know are getting their kids tablets and phones, not 3(or 2)DSes and Vitas. Their main reason? Tablets do more stuff. So why not whore your biggest franchise to a new audience, especially on a...

    Good Graphics - The Sole Aspect of a 'Good' Game?

    An interesting followup to this survey would be a controlled test (too time and resource-intensive, I know). Basically, get games from the same genre of clearly different graphical quality (and overall quality) and see how the two compare to test subjects. For the Final Fantasy example, FFVI vs...

    Report - Video Games At Risk For Another Crash

    Much like the movie industry, video game publishers are taking less and less risks, relying on proven franchises. Why should they? Great games that aren't a Madden, FIFA, CoD, Mario, etc often flop commercially. Like Guild said, this won't last in the long run. Then there's the value aspect...

    Sony announces PS Vita TV

    I like the idea, though, I would have preferred an HDMI out solution instead for the Vita. Here are my questions. We know that games that require touchscreen games won't be compatible. We know that PS3 dualshocks work with this. What happens when the PS4 comes around? The PS4 controller has a...

    New PS Vita Model

    Sticking with my OLED Vita. While the 1GB flash sounds nice, it's really nothing. You're not fitting games on there, just some basic apps, really. A question I have is about the 64GB card. I'm guessing only the new hardware can support it, or can the OLED Vita use it as well? The other things...

    3K3Y Firmware 2.01 Released!

    If it's anything like the Cobra Dongle, it will go as follows: Product is released, and it is good. It gets updates for about a year. Then no more updates as Team Cobra works on their new project. I'm still a little bitter over the dongle, and the fact that the ODE was supposed to be released...

    PS4 has 50% More Raw Power in Graphics than the Xbox One

    While the RAM does make a difference, you may want to reread the line about the Optical Drive again...

    PS4 has 50% More Raw Power in Graphics than the Xbox One

    These events were more hardware reveals than anything, though. We should be seeing games at E3. That said, you are kind of right. Both PS4 and X1 focused on features and power. The features of the X1, though, plainly spell out that X1 will be a media center. Not only will it play games, but...

    The Walking Dead [MAJOR SPOILERS!]

    They made it pretty clear that a bite is fatal. Jim from season one had a minor bite and died from it. No you don't have to be bitten to turn, but being bitten just makes the process that much faster.

    Is Final Fantasy: Dimensions worth $20?

    It's a fairly fully fledged FF game. The job system is good, and the story, while not deep, definitely harkens back to older FF games. $20 for a game like that now may seem like a lot, but $20 for an old-school FF is not the worst thing in the world. I've gotten 54 hours logged on it so far...
