Game Informer mentioned that you can switch from motion to stick controls already.

Being someone who owns one I can very positively say no its not. The Wii U trades grunt for efficiency, a quick web search will point this out. The biggest problem lies in the lack of optimization in multiplat games. Most multiplats on the Wii U are build on a base of 360 code which does not...

Wow you guys really miss the forest for the trees dont you! Interactive can mean many things and does not necessarily mean you control the outcome of the movie ala Mass Effect. Captain Power from way back in the 90's was probably the FIRST interactive tv show. If you had the toys you could...

So far at day 2 the petition has 8 signatures on it. It's slow going but I have contacted a few guys and who knows maybe it will pick up. Remember guys this isnt about putting a PC game on the Wii U, rather its about putting a genre on it. No one expects a game experience like starcraft2 to...

Abomination I think your miss reading what I put up. Think of it like this instead Use left bumper for RMB Use left trigger for LMB Right bumper and trigger are spare Use RS to pan and scroll Use LS for mouse wheel DPAD for quick commands like move, attack, guard and use special ABXY...

Hi Mr.K thats actually a very good point and one that I didnt think of. You probably could scale it up but that would add clutter. I know its a bit of hand waving on my part here but ultimately the designer would have to figure it out. A pause order system probably would not be very good...

I am seeing a lot of concern with regards to speed. Vrach makes a good point but this is not an insurmountable problem. Consider the following control scheme: RS/LS - panning around the screen* RS/LS - Zooming in and out* Touch Screen - selector/pointer Bumpers and triggers - For...

Hi guys good to see a healthy discussion going on here. I have started up a petition to show devs that there might be opportunities to be had in bringing the RTS genre to the Wii U. please sign it at...

PC games generally have much lower development costs then console games in general and as a result need to sell much less. Without the need to make everything hyper real or hyper detailed like in an FPS costs could probably be kept at reasonable levels. As for touch screen interface, Ninty's...

Over the past couple of months I've seen quite a few petitions asking for ports of games coming to other consoles. All this is good and fine though personally I dont really see the point of it. The way 3rd parties treat the U do you really want to see another gimped port? The whole issue had...

Too Human - after figuring out how to use the rune slots, juggle opponents and not die every 30 seconds the game actually became a ton of fun - also the first xbox game game I actually finished.

It definitely helps if you consider the Citadel and the Intelligence to be one and the same. One thing we need to remember is that the Intelligence's physical connection to its body was severed by the Protheans via their reprogramming of the Keepers, there are parallels here in EDI who was...

Big wall of text that was confusing to read and seemed to trip up all over its self in the first half so not really going to talk about that. But I will talk about the second part referring to Organic vs Synthetic. The argument that the Geth/Quarian peace proves the catalyst wrong is just not...

Doesnt it strike anyone as weird that the Escapist and other "Analysts" have been reporting so much on just how great the Xbox is doing lately. Dont get me wrong I love my XBox but at the same time a lot of these reports seem to be a bit suspect at best and just out right paid PR in others...

I really hope they go with the everyman hero route in the next installment instead of the galactic hero theme in 1,2 & 3. Something smaller with the characters dealing with events and problems that dont have the universe hanging in the balance. Just like in the movies you can get a lot of...
