Nintendo WiiU : Thread 05

[nakamura]

I've heard nothing but good about Vegas.

[Brad]

Fair enough, can't argue with that.

I think that generally Ubisoft are all that's wrong in gaming but then they go and give us the Rayman games and ZombiU and I find I'm glad they exist!

[Nu-Eclipse]

Can't say I'm a major fan of Ubisoft games but credit where it's due - they've done more than most other third-party devs in terms of actually supporting the Wii U on a consistent basis.

[nakamura]

Ubi are no worse today than EA or Activision etc. All have quality mixed in with questionable practices.

Hmmm. Probably better than the other two I think. People like Ancel would get laughed out the room pitching games to ea or activision.

Errrrm Mr Ancel, we've noticed there are no guns in your game, also we've noticed that there's quite a lot of content, that will need to go so we can monetise that later. Also our focus group says this isn't going to apeal to whiney little American brats, so basically we're going to have to rip out all you've done so we can make a shooter, unless your willing to give Rayman an m16, is that an option?

[nakamura]

It's very easy to imagine that conversation!

Rainbow Six Vegas and GRAW were the best and happiest gaming memories I had of the last gen thanks their sheer brilliant On-Line co-ops modes .

Nothing has come even remotely close. Sad really.

[BaronSqwelch]

Yeah Ubisoft are pretty great IMO.
Separating Ass Creed which has been shipped seriously broken twice now (3 and Unity) everything else I have played has been good and worked.
They are apparently pretty bad pc wise but I'm a console gamer so I don't care..cut corners there and put the manpower to work on ps4 I say

Just noticed I clicked on the wrong/WiiU thread before posting tho so I am off to bed now

Import Tuner Challenge, Prince of Persia, Armored Core for Answer and especially Driver: San Francisco spring to mind as other Ubisoft corkers for me.

Import Tuner Challenge was a crushing disappointment after the awesome PS1/2 and DC games in the series.

Agreed - i think shutokou battle 2 was the best. Wasnt ITC made by genki?

[nakamura]

It was but so were the others on DC and PS2.
Zero is my fav. Mainly as more cars, less slowdown but more jaggies though.

Zero is awesome too - bring on the jaggies! crisp and super sharp, looking VGA quality via RGB

[nakamura]

You like jaggies??

[dvdx2]

You like jaggies??

Hell yes,

The early ps2 games without a flicker filter/smoothing look incredible - RRV, sky oddessey, TTT, etc

Just like mario kart 8....
