ZombiU is getting really interesting....

Looks better than most launch games I can remember, and I'm not talking about graphics.

[QUOTE="RyanShazam"]

[QUOTE="Cranler"] COD 2, Kameo and Condemned look better than ALL console games when the 360 launched with those. Halo looked better than ALL console games when it launched with the original xbox. True next gen consoles always beats the incumbents.Cranler

Okay... Whats that have to do with me wanting this game more than the rest of the games coming out this year?

I dont get you are nitpicking what I am saying. Are you made that I think this game is going to be great? Are you made that this is my most anticipated game? Are you mad that I feel I am going to like this game more than your favorite games?

Your comment is pointless.

The Last of Us is 10x more next gen than that garbage lol

Davekeeh

You mean that game with the muddy textures?

This game is looking like the true survival horror game experience that we never got this gencharizard1605

Someone missed Penumbra and Amnesia.

Laughing at some of these comments. Just jealousy from the losers who missed out on pre-ordering a Wii U. Really , i can hardly contain my excitement for ZombiU and the Wii U. It takes the launch of a new system to finally get some interesting games to play. Sold my xbox360 already. There is only one game im getting for PS3 for the next few months. PC has some interesting things coming, but man, the Wii U is just looking better and better. I cant sleep and my every waking thought is about Wii U. How pathetic is that, lol?

Watch the videos again. extensive use of the tablet controller - new. not being able to pause while doing inventory on the tablet controller to create a more intense experience - new. being able to pick up the backpacks of your friends when they die in their games - new. and i'm hardly digging deep here.

all the guns in the world won't get you through some doors. what a ridiculous and incorrect assertion you make.

and as for this "No accounting for bad taste" - I have no words. actually i do have words. you're silly. other people's opinions are different to yours so they have bad taste? whatever.

I cant tell if the lack of coop (which is standard in zombie games) is a indication of how much theyre focusing on the campaign or how rushed it is.

I want to hate on this game, because I really don't want the Wii-U. But I have to admit that so far it looks interesting. Best setting of a Zombie game ever? :cry: F* u Nintendo!

In some places you have pretty good answers, in other places you list an opinion to suit your agenda.

I think part of the reason you're not seeing the things you're looking for is due to diminishing returns. If what you're really after is graphics and physics etc, then just keep waiting for an UE4 title, or CryEngine 3, or something.

It sounds to me like the Wii U just isn't for you. No big deal. Quite frankly, I wouldn't trade in the tablet controller for 5x the graphical prowess, as I can already get many times the graphics on my gaming pc.

Different strokes for different folks Mr Cranler.

This game looks awesome :D.

Sorry. I dont like men like yourself. Thats probably why you dont find her attractive.

btw, can I just add that ZombiU is an awful name for a survival horror game?

GunSmith1_basic

Apparently it is homage to an old Ubisoft title Zombi, and I quite like it.

It's a horrible name, but easier to remember, and therefore better for marketing.

Michael0134567

Yes it does.

It is a game that could set a new bar for the survivor horror genre and give that niche a breath of fresh air, because it sure needs one.

PC does have better graphics of course but is still being held back by consoles. Sleeping Dogs on pc for instance would have looked even better had it been built from the ground up for next gen consoles and imagine Deus Ex Hr with Samaritan demo graphics.

So, youre spending $300 for a controller then, how is this controller a game changer in Zombie u?

If I get around to buying a WiiU, I'll have to get this game with it.

When this game was announced it was what really sold me on the Wii U.

Sadly I am just soooooo terrible when it comes to completing my backlog. I still have over 50 games to beat which pretty much means the Wii U has zero value for me.

[QUOTE="MSXBOX4EVER"]

[QUOTE="Cranler"] Vita started the stick-touch screen combo. No pausing was in Demons Souls. Looking away from the screen seems to be an immersion killer and what does using a touch screen to pick a lock really add over using a stick? Wheres the advanced physics, animations, sound fx etc. that one might expect from a next gen game? Nothing stands out. Cranler

it's not contradictory.The returns diminish from UE3 to 4, compared to say, UE2 to 3.

How can the PC be held back by consoles when there are still PC exclusive games?

I am not spending $300 on a controller. I may spend $350 on a package including the first of the 8th generation of video game consoles, the first iteration ever of a controller with a touch screen (Dreamcast controller didn't have a screen, the VMU add on did and comparitively it was very crude like comparing paleolithic man's stone tools to the Ginsu 5000), and this package also includes a game (NintendoLand) which offers gameplay experiences unique to the tablet controller.

Even with CODBO2 on the Wii U you can have two people playing and their each get their own screen. The main screen runs at full hd 1080p 60fps, the tablet runs at it's full res. Much better than split screen. Xbox 360 can't even do COD at 720p.

It's new, it's different, i wonder why pre order allocations are exhausted?

its just fun to make fun of the wiiu Cranler

It is suggested that everyone stops giving this user the time of day. With statements like this, I don't know how anyone can expect a logical discourse.

Back to the topic - ZombiU is a part of my pre-order and I look forward to playing it on launch day.

Looks alot more interesting than I thought at first.

Is this going for a more supernatural vibe? I was sure it was about a virus outbreak.

You said the main reason youre getting the wiiu is because of the controller. I'm still waiting to hear about it being a game changer in zombie u.

Id rather play on half of a 55 inch tv than a 6 inch screen. Wiiu version of BO 2 will sell nowhere near the amount that the other platforms will, p2p mp on a low selling game is the pits since the players are more spread apart causing more lag.

Preorder numbers arent all that impressive. Not much better than 360 did and remember that MS hadnt built up a huge fanbase yet at that time. Demand for the 720 will be much higher.

I've always liked to see Great Britain in a zombie apocolypse. And Killing Floor gave a little taste of that, though it was kinda in aging engine and didn't really do it too well. This game looks great, and seems like one of the only proper survival zombie games on console.

The jump from UT 2004 to UT 3 was underwhelming. The difference between the best looking Unreal game compared to Samaritan is much bigger.

lol, samaritan tech demo. let's wait until you can actually play something which looks as good as that? when is fortnite coming out eh?

You have heard about why i think the tablet controller is a game changer, you disagree. so what? considering you find it fun to bash the wii u, well i might as well be telling the pope why i think there is no god.

i'd rather play on the whole of a 55 inch screen, and give a guest the entire of a 6 inch screen (or vice versa), than us each have half of a 55 inch screen. Do you see? yeah that's right. wii u is better in this regard, and novel.

sorting by popularity CODBO2 is the 3rd most popular game in the Wii U category on amazon. i have seen other retailers where it is the 2nd most pre ordered game. doesn't this suggest there will be a community for it on wii u?

you say pre order numbers aren't all that impressive. well then, you can probably find some numbers. please, find some numbers regarding how many pre orders there are for the wii u, not a statement by michael pachter. then i would love to discuss these numbers with you.

demand for the 720 is hard to predict because 1. it isn't announced. 2. the 56pg leaked document pointed to a $299 console including Kinect 2.0

Yes it is. I think it will score a 8 on GS ranker.

I'm sure theirs an atheist forum you can go to. This is a forum for bashing consoles.

Whether the guest would rather play on a tiny screen or not is up for debate. Lol at looking at amazon popularity. 360 has an install base of about 30 million. Wiiu will have about a 400k install base, even if the entire install base buys it the mp will be a lagfest and take a long time to find matches for anything but tdm.

Youre the one who brought up the preorders neing sold out without definitive info of how many were allocated which means nothing. Companies love to get headlines for being sold out fyi. If the preorder numbers were a lot higher than Pachters estimates then Nintendo would be bragging about it. 360 was hard to get for the 1st six months so no big deal.

This game just look better and better, i cant wait for my Zombiu bundle. Ubisoft have rly stepped up this gen as one of the best developer out there while others like Square-Enix, Bioware etc just fails.
