Despite the cost of their products (does anyone really buy their six year old kid a £400+ iPad for Christmas?) Apple was once again the top brand for Christmas wishlists this year, with 44 per cent of brats asking for an iPad, 30 per cent for an iPod touch and 27 per cent for an iPhone.
A computer and non-iPad tablet made 25 per cent of kids’ lists but so did the Nintendo 3DS, which was the top-rated games-only device. That’s the same percentage as the Nintendo DS last year and suggests that Nintendo’s bad start with the device might finally have been overcome.
After the release of the horrid avatar update, Pokémon GO fans are trying to get items refunded. This has led to some getting threats of being banned.
Shenmue: Reclaiming the Path is a fan game using Dreamcast-era visuals, and tells a new story within the Shenmue saga taking place in both Hong Kong and Guilin. Its expected to release on September 16th.
Something about recreating old school graphics in an era of HD high poly photo realism just hits a spot. I'm not nostalgic cause I mostly played GameCube and GB/A, but it's a visual style that gets over looked even by indies.
Definitely a fan project. Terrible hand animations. Some characters have very bad body proportions. Some look like little kids in adult bodies. Some have short arms, small head, big hips and so on.
While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.
Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.
It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny
Armored Core VI?
Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.
Is something big coming soon to branch the story?
No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
A sign of good things to come, for the Nintendo Wii U.
Oh, the kids these days...
Jeez, I remember just wanting a He-Man or a couple of G.I.Joe's.
Strange. I work retail. Most parents are going for one of the PS3 bundles, the 360/Kinect bundles, or a DSi. They usually don't know the 3DS plays different games.
We're selling used Wii's for $50 too. Should be a fun Black Friday. :(
So do people have the same problems when going to purchase an ipad 2? Or do they know the difference with that when buying that device for their 6 &7 yr old kids...
