Paper Jam Dipper posted:I've read five reviews which assume this would be an action FPS and not a survival horror FPS. Yeah. That gamespot one was cringe-worthy. Summary "Zombi U isn't like RE5, and we don't like that very much at all!"

ImpAtom posted:So I'm really enjoying ZombiU so far. I'm not far into it but it seems really cool. Does it go to poo poo later on or something? The problem doesn't seem to be that it goes to poo poo, but that it doesn't go to anywhere new or interesting as it progresses.

Chinston Wurchill posted:The problem doesn't seem to be that it goes to poo poo, but that it doesn't go to anywhere new or interesting as it progresses. It's a game all about surviving as long as you can, which comes down to using your bat on everything since you never get adequate amounts of ammo or upgrades to take on bigger more interesting challenges...and there aren't any bigger or more interesting challenges. The whole game has roughly the same constant difficulty level. I can't imagine how bad Dark Souls would be if every area had the same enemies as Undead Burg, and you could screw around with more powerful weapons for a few swings before they broke and you were stuck with the default short sword.

Dr. Video Games 0050 posted:No, as we played the ghost game and the chase Mario game with old school controllers. Dammit. I picked up another Motion Plus to compliment the Zelda one because I was under that impression. Oh well, at least I have another one of those for the games that do require it.

Yeah, watching the stream earlier I saw these glowing red zombies that could jog at you and security guard zombies with helmets that you had to bash off.

Anyone catch the Giant Bomb stream when they were playing AC3 that could comment on the performance/graphical comparison to PS360 if they said anything about that? I skipped it to avoid spoilers.

So I went and added a couple of people from the ID thread. I guess you don't get notifications when someone requests you as a friend? Some people had already added me and now we're friends since I added them. But others say provisionally registered friend. I'm guessing that they haven't added me. Weird. Is there any sort of guide for using an external drive? I have a WD Passport that I can't get the console to recognize for the life of me.

It's weird though because I'm watching the GB thread and he's getting notifications when people add him. Is there a setting we're missing? Weird. I DEFINITELY added you.

That's odd, I bought a 2TB WD Elements for the occasion and it works fine. Only odd thing so far is when I came back from the store after leaving the Wii U on idle on the login screen I had an error saying USB storage disconnected and had to unplug the system to reboot it. Posting from my Wii U! The web browser is surprisingly zippy and enjoyable to use.

Why does this thing drop my wifi connection ? Also, where does one go to see the wifi settings ? My other devices have full bars and never lose a signal, this thing can't stay tuned in. If it had an Ethernet port I would plug it into that, so that I could keep a connection going, but apparently Ethernet is dumb and everything is wifi now. Now if only the Wii had a half decent antenna.

Is there a way to adjust the screen on the Wii U? I been noticing this on a lot of games that they are cropping off on the side, especially if the tablet showing the same screen as the tv.

I was able to fix it on the shop channel and mii verse, but stuff like the main menu and Mighty Switch Force just don't give me the option and get cropped out.

About Batman, the GB guys just said that it is "a bad version of this game," and that the framrate is "poor." The port wasn't done by Rocksteady, and it seems to have suffered for it.
