"Coming up today on Nick’s Gaming View, Wii U’s GamePad suffers from poor battery life, Microsoft’s Kinect sells more than 80% of the entire market share of the original Xbox, and the Official PlayStation Magazine to officially become extinct, THIS IS NICK’S GAMING VIEW!"

Tango Gameworks' Hi-Fi Rush has received a surge of positive reviews on Steam after the announcement of the studio's shutdown.
I mean.... okay. While I can appreciate the virtue-signaling of it all, this along with the recent Helldivers 2 debacle is only proving that Metacritic scores really can't be trusted and are just something that can be used to manipulate. If a game/movie/etc is not rated solely on its own merit, what good are the reviews to a consumer actually looking to make the best choice in selecting a piece of entertainment?
It's a great game, it shouldn't have taken the studios closure to receive a surge of positive reviews.

A known leaker teases the God of War Ragnarok PC port announcement in May.
maybe they announce it during the state of play that is rumoured to be announced during this month.
After i finished the first game on pc i've been very excited to continue the story ,can't wait!
80 hours for the standard controller is fantastic. And 4 hours for the tablet is pretty decent considering the 3DS/Vita have around that.
Its kind of simple. Buy a dock or plugin the wiiu controller when you have finished playing and you dont have an issue.
Apologists are funny. I''m a BIG Nintendo fan, but even I won't deny the truth: the Gamepad's battery life is terrible.
Between 3 and 5 hours for a device that doesn't do any processing? My android tablet has a battery life between 7 and 10 hours, and it does heavy processing, it has a higher resolution screen than the Wii U's gamepad, it's multitouch, it's wireless, it has gyro sensors, etc...
So, yeah. My guess is that the gamepad has a pretty small battery on it, hence the short battery life. Maybe Nintendo did it to cut costs, or to avoid making the gamepad too heavy, or a combination of the two. Either way, the fact remains that 3 to 5 hours of charge for a game controller is terrible.
Oh, well. I can still live with that, luckily for me, I have a power outlet pretty close to my couch, where I do all my gaming. But not everyone is going to have it so convenient, the cases will vary according to each gamer's setup.
What?
plenty of time for me, if i need more time i will use the pro controller
