People across the world got Christmas presents today and some of those gifts were Nintendo Wii U systems with copies of Black Ops 2. Black Ops 2's much discussed small online player base nearly doubled on Christmas day to over 3,000 players at peak hours.
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
Hanzla from eXputer inquires: "If Xbox can care about preserving its games and legacy, what exactly is wrong with Nintendo, trying to kill game preservation single-handedly?"
Ahh yes the good old game preservation of saving all your games to a removable hhd on the Xbox 360, taking it round your mates house, setting up multiple tvs to
Be met with “save data corrupted, please re download”
Or how about removing 360 games
From the store
, download them now or else, and, better hope to god that save data doesn’t corrupt, or it’s lost for ever
Nice one ☝️
This is just a scammy PR move to distract from the fact they are going digital only and trying to push streaming and subscriptions only.
No gaming company has pushed harder to remove ownership than Microsoft.
Without discs there is no preservation, preservation can't be done by the rights holders it can only be done by the consumers, anything else is a lie.
Nobody wants this. Sales or the lack of it in the case of XBOX is very telling. I wonder how the adorably all digital series X will fare. Adorably dismal perhaps?
Only time will tell, but for from someone like me suspecting that Xbox is trying to gracefully exit the console market, that "forward compatibility" team is trying to get Xbox games playing on Windows PCs. I mean, it's nice that they're not planning on exiting with a "enjoy your games while the hardware still works" message, so that's nice. They still have a brand to protect via Microsoft so probably feel obligated to have a better exit strategy.
Following the Wii U and 3DS servers being taken offline, Call of Duty Black Ops 2 and Ghosts are officially dead.
stop to beat this dead horse, its pointless.
the majority of the peoples who play CallOfAimAssist is still playing it on 360/ps3 and it wont change, so get over it.
I still can't see myself playing a FPS on the Wii gamepad. It just seems way too big.
My ideal game to get for Wii U is not even close to BO2! Probably because I don't enjoy it as well as many other games but I would go for Mario and play loal Coop! :)
The platform has only been out a month long. Of course the community is small whether or not it is compared to the other platforms.
lol...haters never grow up....black ops saw rise in online on wiiu cause people are buying the wiiu and copies of black ops..not because its christmas....what is the reason the numbers go up on ps3 or xbox because alot of people quit their jobs or decide gaming is more important then their families? wiiu just came out a month ago so stop hating and in time you too will realize how special the wiiu is while its winning next generation
