@Xyllix I know they were originally on the Dreamcast, but the Sonic Adventure games were amazing. I can understand not liking anything after that (with the exception of Colors and Generations), but you have to give props to the Adventure games. They were awesome! I'd love to see another one!

@Raiden8 I think the game looks pretty good. It sounds to me like someone is a graphics snob.

@staticdash22 Nobody is saying you have to. However, if it's a game you to enjoy, shouldn't you be giving the money to the people who made it to encourage them to make another game you enjoy?

Preowned has its place, but people shouldn't buy preowned, if it only saves them a small amount of money off of the new copy. If you can support the developer, you should. There are certain games you can't find new anymore, and that's fine. However, people shouldn't go out of their way to buy preowned.

Also, don't fault the GameStop employees for trying to convince people to buy preowned. Their higher ups definitely pressure them into doing it for fear of losing hours...or their jobs. If employees are caught skewing people toward new when there are preowned copies in-stock, it is definitely possible that they will be reprimanded for it.

That's the problem with work. When you're at your job, you aren't allowed to be you. You have to be what the company wants you to be. They're paying you to do a job. That job includes pushing preowned games, when you work for GameStop.

That image doesn't look as good as I remember Soul Calibur 2 looking on my GameCube...

I'd rebuy any Elder Scrolls or Fallout game on Wii U. Just make sure it isn't a buggy port!

@emptycow @kwandar @Moscow1234 Actually, they couldn't. The Wii U's GPU is much more powerful than that of the 360 and the PS3. However, the CPU isn't much better than what's in the 360. The issue isn't going to be graphics or even CPU speeds in the next generation. It's going to be about connectivity and what games come out for which system. I honestly don't know why I'm replying. I just realized that I may possibly be arguing with someone nearly ten years younger than I am. That's what I'm assuming based on what I read above.

@IAMTYLERDURDEN That's the kind of thinking that leads to stagnation. Whether you like it, or not, innovation is good, and developers have the choice of whether or not they use the GamePad in any meaningful way...if at all. These developers could easily port any game to WIi U, map the controls to the GamePads buttons, and completely ignore the touch screen. It's possible. Nintendo brought a myriad of control types to Wii U with the mindset that developers could pick their poison. Yes, Nintendo is focusing on the features the GamePad unlocks, but they wouldn't have introduced the ProPad, if they planned on forcing every game to use those features.

@Daian What irks me is that you all expect the same leap that last generation had. What is traditionally expected is double the processing power of the previous generation. Microsoft and Sony broke the mold. Don't say something is expected when it's only happened in one console generation.
