Wow, big deal for the Wii U if you have some newer games to trade.

Xof3960d ago

Only "select titles," all of which are new games worth at least $30-40 used. So, obviously, it's not really as good of a deal as it sounds.

JonnyBigBoss3960d ago

That's a great deal if you want a console that makes you wait 2 years for good games.

Animavicion3960d ago

is actually at the end of 2013, so it would be like half year :p

PopRocks3593960d ago

I was gonna say, it's only been half a year and those good games come out during summer. Also what about Monster Hunter and Lego City?

Animavicion3960d ago

@PopRocks359 are good games, but they are not blockbuster releases.

PopRocks3593960d ago

Fair point lol. But by and large they are at least GOOD games. That's what matters most, or at least should IMO.

Animavicion3960d ago

@PopRocks359 I know, but if they are not good sales does not help much promote the newly released console.

Or sell 5 new games on eBay and get the wii u for $50-$100.

knifefight3960d ago

That's exactly what I was thinking. Way more money in selling things yourself, but I guess there's an appeal to the convenience.

The Last Of Us Series Has Remarkable Potential For Spin-Offs

Najam from eXputer writes "It's time fore a new installment in the series, not another pointless remaster."

anast82d ago

They are working on something new. Not to be rude but it is impossibility stupid to think ND next major announcement is going to be a remaster or their next Last of Us entry is going to be another remaster.

AlterRecs79d ago

I think this is in response to them releasing a remaster for the sequel, a game that didn't need a remaster.

Basically a "why did you put out a remaster no one asked for when you have all there options available"

anast79d ago

They remaster is to put out something quick while they are deving new stuff. I don't get how people can be so static.

AlterRecs78d ago

There's no news about a third game being in production, you're just assuming that they're working on something that they aren't

anast78d ago

When they release the news to start the hype-train, you can give me my props then.

DrDoomer82d ago

I want an alternate timeline spin-off, where part 2 never happened.

CrimsonWing6982d ago

They’ve already done Remasters of 1 and 2… what else is there to Remaster?

AlterRecs79d ago

Considering they remastered the first game twice, who knows lol

CrimsonWing6979d ago

That was a Remake. I guess they could do that to 2, but man…. They should wait a couple generations so it can look like a major upgrade.

The Last Of Us Online Devs Celebrate Their Experience With The Canceled Game

The team is sad for losing out on such a great project but celebrates its growth because of spending time on it.

Chocoburger127d ago

All they had to do was make a basic online mode like their previous games. Instead they wanted more money and choose to go live service which makes games worse in my opinion.

What a waste of time and money, what a shame.

seanpitt2382d ago

I can't wait for season 2 so they can kill Joel off in the first 2 episodes!! Then it will be just Abby and Ellies revenge plot!

Something is telling me that this won't happen though because it wouldn't make sense, oh wait

Linzoid126d ago

Not sure why they didn’t just make Factions 2. There was no need to make it a live service.

TLoU Factions was a great addition such a shame they couldn’t be bothered to remaster that for PS5 considering the crazy high price tag of the remaster of a remaster…

anast126d ago

This is something to be celebrated. This studio is smart and they get it, even factions 2 wouldn't've have been worth the time. I am surprised they didn't just remaster the first one though, but actually how popular was Factions?
