This is the company that thinks its fair to charge £6 for utter shite like Super Castlevania 4 that came out 21 years ago and was crap then I suppose

I have no words...

You "suppose"? Why don't you fucking try it out? It's a revered classic by pretty much everyone that was gaming at that time, and it's a damn shame we don't see games like it anymore.

I bought it after just completing it again a few weeks back on my phone. Even if I don't play this download for a few years, if ever, at least I've voted with my wallet. I wish I could do the same for a lot other stuff from that era.

But don't you see Fallows? They did some small thing he disagrees with so obviously everything else the company does is wrong. I'd like to see him try and find classics like Super Castlevania 4 or Earthbound on ebay or elsewhere for a similar price. Sometimes I think we have it too good nowadays games wise.

It is just utterly daft that you can't play Wii Sports U or Wii Fit U without an internet connection. Why is it needed? This is the company that thinks its fair to charge £6 for utter shite like Super Castlevania 4 that came out 21 years ago and was crap then I suppose

THEN WHO WAS PHONE? :o

I'd buy it for that price. Even if it would make me constantly annoyed that they hadn't put team management stuff on the gamepad.

I think they still had some copies in if people want me to pick them up for them. Stick £1.20 on top for postage and I can see if I can get them today.

Couldn't agree more. Still one of the best games ever.

Perhaps you took me up wrong Jon. I was mocking his tone and paraphrasing him to suggest there was nothing wrong with it and that he was moaning about something that could be sorted out for the price of a gaming mag. That's why I linked to said device so he could enjoy his Wii fit.

Sorry. It was late.

Perhaps they think its fair exchange to ask you to stump up £6 for a lan adapter on ebay rather than use an utter shite internet connection that was crap six years ago?

I have a perfectly fine internet connection. Just not in the room that the Wii U will spend most of its time. Old Victorian house, thick walls. The signal isn't full strength everywhere. So no, its not an internet connection that was shit 6 years ago. Its actually very fast.

So, night out in Glasgow yesterday. At some good pubs, good chat and a few drinks. Ended up in te Cathouse. Haven't been there for years and we probably raised the average age by about 15 years. Realised this morning that I still had the Fit meter strapped to my belt while in the club!

Kill me now

I'm probably being completely thick but I can't seem to get youtube videos to play in proper high res on the Wii U, I wanted to show my mate how nice NBA 2K14 was looking so I paused the WiiU and came here through the browser, could pick 1080p on the little menu on the video when it was on the page but as soon as I play it and it goes full screen, it looks like ass. I can't seem to get the settings menu up when it goes full screen to check it is in 1080 (or even 720) am I just being simple?

Darksiders II is really very enjoyable. 5 hours in and absolutely loving the flow of game and level design. Never seem to be backtracking unnecessarily and the jumping, wall-running parts are executed very well. Some nice dungeon puzzles that aren't so taxing they frustrate and the environments themselves are just gorgeous.

Death is NAILS and smashing a gang of monsters' faces in is thoroughly satisfying. Bosses are HUGE, and everything seems like a love letter to Zelda 64.

Hats off to the devs.

So these robot things, never watched them but assumed they were shit due to Neg havering poor taste and the general backlash on here...

However, that's not fair really is it - I mean it's like saying a game is crap without playing it, like judging the robot vids on some e3 footage or something so I thought I would watch a few and give a balanced opinion of them.

I started with the wii sports club bowling one, it's a 9 min vid full of... I don't know, after 3 mins I was considering booking a flight to a clinic in Switzerland - it's fucking awful, it's not funny and the voice is grating. I guess at least he was playing the game, badly as unable toil to task - pretty poor form for a 'robot'

Can a mod add some code that gives neg an electrical shock any time he tries to post one of their vids?
