Yeah, Wii U and lack of a cartoon is why Sonic Boom failed. Nothing to do with the game at all.

Kind of wish Korra never came out so I could be more hyped, but they've nailed the art so I'm semi-hyped.

alvarado52 06-15-2015 08:31 PM

Castle Crashers Remastered announced.

Kinda makes you wonder though, now that the X1 is rolling out backwards compatibility, what the point is in some of these remasters.

Some games just age perfectly fine, particularly cartoonish/cel-shaded ones (Wind Waker, Castle Crashers, etc)

Kalyx triaD 06-15-2015 10:47 PM

The answer is some (a lot) of games will be cock blocked by publishers.

You think Sony will let Capcom let Microsoft add SF4 after all the hoopla about Ultra SF4 being PS4 exclusive? Some games are still never going to happen.

drave 06-16-2015 05:33 AM

FF VII Being re-made.

Speechless right now.

Played one game of Gears remastered and instantly had more fun than my entire time playing Destiny

Why saddle that experience with such a low bar? I had a shit yesterday I enjoyed more than playing Halo. You know the ones that you really need but won't come out properly and when it does it just feels amazing? One of those shits.

Yeah, I'm down with Transformers now. Was watching it on GT Live and the mechanics are very Bayonetta, even with the slowdown on dodge.

Emperor Smeat 06-17-2015 08:09 PM

If anyone was interested in playing Shenmue I and/or II because of Shenmue III's announcement, now is not a good time to do so. Prices for both at least on Amazon spiked big since III's announcement.

Shenmue I spiked by around 200-250% ($90-$100 average right now) while II spiked by around $60-$70 on average.

On the flip side, best time to sell either game and make some good money.

Likely the same on eBay and other online retailers/auction places.

2) Shigeru Miyamoto denied rumors of Zelda U being dropped for the Wii U in favor of the next Nintendo console. Also stated the reason for no Zelda U stuff in the E3 Direct show was because Nintendo wanted to focus more on Star Fox.
http://www.destructoid.com/zelda-is-...o-294412.phtml

3) According to an interview with Kotaku, Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes requires 3 players if online mode is used while the game itself will automatically trigger the Game Over screen if someone quits online.
http://gonintendo.com/stories/236581...game-over-if-a

4) Koji Igarashi teased rumors of Deep Silver being the publisher for Bloodstained are likely true although he doesn't want to make an official announcement until the publisher approves it.

I love it that someone made "Shinra Tech" a real thing.

The crazy thing is, SquareEnix made them a separate company and now they've gone semi-rogue and are trying to break away from them.

drave 06-20-2015 09:13 AM

Kinda what they get :P

alvarado52 06-22-2015 03:53 PM

Just noticed that the Gears remaster is going for $40. They're fucking crazy.

Its just the 1st Gears. If it were all three i'd call it a bargain, but just the 1? Negative.

drave 06-23-2015 07:52 AM

Yea, pretty dumb for a "remaster".

4) Activision is considering the possibility of releasing remastered versions of past Call of Duty games in the near future. Main reason they haven't done so far is due to lack of available manpower since all their teams are working on existing CoD projects.
http://www.destructoid.com/activisio...s-294599.phtml

5) Microsoft is currently rumored to have canned Phantom Dust's development with no new developer being involved since Darkside studio's shutdown a couple of months ago.

Guys, I'm considering remastering my account here at TPWW, so I can post in full HD at 60fps.

ClockShot 06-23-2015 08:09 PM

Prototype? Why?

Fucking loved the first game. Didn't care about the 2nd. If anything dust it off and make a 3rd game. Don't give it the remaster treatment.

PC, PS4 and Xbox One. Pretty cheap, too, even from GAME. I can't find any videos or images, just box art.
