Sorry man, was pulling for the Pats, back ends of dynasties are tough as a fan.

Thanks, bah

Damn your Pats Jay... Because they choked I have to listen to 2 weeks about the first "Brother vs. Brother" Super Bowl.... It'll be a decent matchup but I am not a Jim Harbough fan. I can live with John. If only Gronk could stay healthy, with the way the Pats Offense sputtered in the second half, he would have been a great weapon to get the offense started because he is impossible to cover.roboccs

I wouldn't call it choking, just the worst injuries at the worst times.

Like Gronk is needed against a team like the Ravens because he delivers hits when he blocks instead of absorbing them.

I knew there was going to be a huge problem the second Talib was injured after the first possession. The defense was built around him covering Boldin, once that was gone they didn't have the depth at corner to compensate. You could move Devin back over but then you have a liability with Chung who's played his last game as a Patriot.

A bad situation became worse after the first drive of the game and then close to impossible after the half.

BOOOOO!!! I'm going to have to pay $1.50 to download a Wii U virtual console game that I already transferred to my Wii U from my Wii VC if I want to play it on my gamepad.... Nintendo just boggles my mind sometimes. I know the games are being redeveloped specifically for Wii U and there's cost associated with that but come on.... that just seems crappy to me upon my first impression.... It's only a buck-fifty but still, I just hate feeling like I'm being nickel and dimed...

But eventually we'll be able to create our own miiverse communities... Very nice! :D

Am I the only one watching the Nintendo Direct presser? Some Zelda Wii U info was discussed and a Wind Waker HD remake... Interesting. And Zelda U may be more open world?? And it's been repeated that it's not coming out any time soon...

I hope I'm not spoiling anything for anyone...

Monolith Soft announcement! Looks like a new Xenoblade or Xenogears!!! :shock:

Pure glory...

WHAT? I'm in lab right now, DETAILS PLEASE!

That was definitely the best Nintendo Direct in a while. Wind Waker remake was unexpected and really well presented in the video to be an awesome surprise.

The Xeno game looks AMAZING. It looks like an evolution of Xenoblade's gameplay and concept of a huge world, and the red X they showed looks just like the X in Xenogears, not to mention the flying mech.

The Yoshi game had me excited until they showed it and it's just Yoshi's Epic Yarn. I hope the gameplay is drastically different from Kirby's Epic Yarn, because even though that game was fun while it lasted, I don't really want another one.

Just found a trailer and went outside to watch it on my phone. HOLY. FREAKING. CRAP.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K40orKpbJBU&feature=player_embedded#

Looks AMAZING. I'm thinking Xenoblade 2, the UI is near identical, and the Mech could be future Mechon tech possibly? Don't want to say too much about that for fear of spoiling something, but I will literally buy this and a Wii U day one.

honestly, it sounds a little *too* ambitious. even for them.jeffster85

The VC part of the show left a bad taste in my mouth but as it went on I became very happy.roboccs

One thing being overlooked are the updates being made to Miiverse. I was hoping (and kind of assumed) that eventually people would be able to create their own topics like a big message board. Hopefully Jordan will create a gamespot OT board in the ACTUAL Miiverse :P

I'm surprised the Leafs beat the Penguins 5-2. Woo!Haziqonfire

So this thread lives? lol.

Hey,i was thinking of what i want from a portable system.

HD,3D,super realistic graphics,120fps,being able to watch movies for free,compatible with CD,DVD,and BDs,and maybe able to make coffee and produce holograms.

If it's a Sony handheld, you'll have to buy those seperate in a proprietary format, and well above average market value.

5. seeing the wind waker remake is awesome, but it'd better not be full price 6. i need to watch the monolith soft trailer. did they say if its exclusive? also, its an rpg, right? what style?jeffster85

The Monolith Soft game looks like a visually enhanced Xenoblade - same world style, same combat. It looks beautiful, and there are mechs.

remake of ANY game shouldn't be full price imo. $40 would sound right. i guess i'll have to see more, but thats just my opinion :P mechs? i'm sold! :P is it a sequel or whole different game?jeffster85

And because of the way Xenoblade ends, if this game is a sequel, then it kind of has to be a lot different from Xenoblade in a lot of ways.

@Jeffster, Monolith Soft is owned by Nintendo, there is no way it would be anything but exclusive :PWreckEm711

I have no idea why anyone is excited for anything that Nintendo Direct showed.

A new Zelda is coming eventually (2014 probably).

Zelda WW looks great but it's going to be a 60 dollar game and I don't know how many people will double dip.

Xenogears/blade thing look like garbage, it looks like you took the same *$&* graphics and art design from the failed Lost Planet 2 and stuck a new title on it.

Yoshi is Epic Yarn with a new character, most people weren't champing at the bit for a new installment considering the first one did dreadfully.

A new Mario Kart eventually

A new Mario game eventually

Honestly the biggest thing is that Nintendo apologized for it's quality of games and the lack of them, that's very worrisome for me because they're flat out saying "Yes we screwed up and now we have no games, so enjoy the dry spell"

If a company that never says I'm sorry and never worries for them to come out with that statement?

Yeah but it's the same old song and dance

Things will come out eventually

We already knew that, nothing in that press release/program is anything really surprising

Except the *(#@&*@# art direcition on Xenoblade/gear, holy @#&*@#

Oh look I found more screenshots

Well look at this terrible looking game:

Ugh, it's just grass and a cliff with a horse monster. It's a shame that the whole game looks like this. It would've been much better if there had been beautiful waterfalls behind huge rope bridges spanning the gap between two cliffs of lush jungle, or if there had been a giant tree that housed an intricate village that leads all the way up to an ocean in the sky, or if there had been a crazy tech city floating over that ocean with constant meteorites flashing through the sky at night, or if there had been the remnants of a severed arm from the giant dead god you've been traversing for the whole game.

But no, it's just some grass with a cliff. I wish they would be a little more ambitious.

As far as i'm concerned,the Monolith Soft game looks awesome.

As for TWW HD...well...redoing the graphics KILLS the purpose of it,and the original cartoony graphics.

...i'll probably get it,though.

For any new features and all.

Oh,and Yoshi Land,they announced that a long time ago.

And...i'm reluctant for the time being.

Need to see more of the game to judge.

Have you not seen the screenshots? The game is still cartoony dork :P

WreckEm711

No it's not really cartoony,it doesn't have a cel/toon shading effect.

So it's not.

It's really not the same.

I mean,the graphics are upgraded,but the cel shading seems to be gone in those screenshots.

Same style,but not cel shading.

Not the same.

Then continue to enjoy playing the original and let those who appreciate the visual upgrade enjoy the remake. meetroid8

They COULD have put it on VC without a graphical update,OR release it on HD without changing the toon shading effect.

Hopefully it will.
