Title: Your thought on the new things of gaming
Post by: Hard Bot on November 26, 2011, 03:10:08 PM
Wii U- I'm very suspicious of this thing. I'm convinced of it having enhancers to it's graphics, but I have seen a lot of smiting to it at my school. I don't know what it really is, but I have seen most of it's games as childish, so I'm not buying it. I already have a PS3, and it would pointless for me to buy it. I'm a hardcore gamer, and I'm concerned about getting bullied at school. I would give it a 5/10.

3DS- I'm very suspicious of this thing. I am concerned about getting eyestrained from this thing, because it's 3D without the glasses, and the games are for casualtys of gaming, and poor max. graphics output. I would give it a 4/10.

Kinect- I don't have a 360, but it looks cool, but I already asked for a PSP for Christmas. I would give it a 7/10, because it is intended for casualtys, but there are some titles for hardcore gamers.

Wii U I don't like the look of =P

3DS: Tried one in store. Started hurting my eyes after not too long. If I was going to buy one, I'd have to turn the 3d off most of the time which is defeating the point.

Also most of your WiiU points are bad. Your school is probably not a good opinion. If it was anything like my school then it was probably more "COD RULEZ". Ignore them and look down on them with slight disdain. Having said that, your school must be fun if you get bullied for what console you get.

Lol bro Wii U has Batman Arkham city on it and it's not an adult game system? LOLOLOLOL. Anyway, Bullies suck and dismissing a game as childish before you've even played it is equally childish. I've played the wii and gamecube, and both have hardcore games like Killer 7 and Madworld.
And I've played 3DS and never experienced eyestrain. What causes eye strain for me is too low a field of view (or effectively peripheral vision).

I have one. It gave me a headache after the first twenty minutes. But I played it the next day and there was no problem. I still have 20/20 vision, no headaches and I play it often.

I think it's just a case of getting used to it, personally.

Now they just need to make a red and black one.

Wait a second... (http://s.cdon.com/media-dynamic/images/product/00/08/79/84/11/3/443c885e-f1d1-4cb3-b093-f2287b3c639d.jpg)

Seriously though, i'll probably get one, when some actual games come out for it.

Could be that. Is the 3d bad when you're on a train or something? I've heard it takes a bit to adjust to it once you lose focus.

Wii U:
Arkham City
Assassin's Creed
Ghost Recon
Ninja Gaiden
Darksiders

How the heck are these casual games?
Kinect has relatively few hardcore games and has been out for a while. Wii U has several games that are Hardcore on an extremely short announced games list. I can imagine several more being added.

I am also convinced that that Nintendo's systems meanings is to"have fun and exercise." Has anyone relized that? That's not the meaning of rival manufacters.
pahahahahahahahah Kinect has far more exercise games bro

Wait what? A thread where Hard Bot flames Nintendo and praises everything else on the market, despite having awful points about the Nintendo consoles and having not even tried one of them.. Where have we seen something like this before? (https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php/topic,8656.0.html)

Wii U shows Ninty trying to make a hardcore breakthrough, I think. 3DS.. meh, I might actually get one, depending on the games coming out - especially seem as though my new wireless router isn't compatible with my original DS.

Kinect = Eyetoy.2 to me. I see no appeal..

But guys...I have to tell you a secret: before I liked Gran Turismo, I liked Mario Kart, until I was 9. Our first system was a Nintendo 64. I still liked it when we got a Wii. Enigma even let me play it on his DS. But during Christmas of 2009, we got a PS3. 1 of the games we got was GT5 Prologue. I was happy with this system, and since then it was Gran Turismo favorite video game series.

just because a game isn't full of guys spewing 500 gallons of blood (1892.70589 liters for non-americans) everywhere doesn't mean it's not enjoyable

so Zelda isn't hardcore? I know many people who got the latest Zelda when it came out, and they are hardcore gamers. I hate people who think that just because a game doesn't have guns or gore, it isn't "hardcore". Is someone who spends years to make the perfect Pokemon team any less hardcore than the guy who gets level 100 prestige in MW3?

Geez, you people need to get a reality check. Nintendo is not "childish".

Wii U may have Skyrim...'nuf said.

Also I agree on the NGC controller being the best. Another thing about the Wii U, tho: Now that it's a 2-handed controller, the games won't be so motion-control-centered, thus seeming less 'exercise-y'.
Title: Re: Your thought on the new things of gaming
Post by: cephalopod on November 26, 2011, 06:57:03 PM
Because Wii Sports/Fit are DEFINITELY the most hardcore Nintendo/Wii games out there. All consoles have their merits, and excel in different areas. It frustrates me when people like you, Hard Bot, can't recognize that.

I hate to agree with Hard Bot, because he never seems to defend my arguments, but I don't like the Wii as a GAMER because it's not something that I could use for most of my favorite games, since I've never liked anything Nintendo (mainly Mario) after the Gamecube. However, I don't criticize people that use the Wii because everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Except Playstation users. They suck.

Not evidence when it's coming from a biased viewpoint. In this case, articles written by obnoxious, snotty kids who think that they are "Hardcore" for playing games with over-the-top violence, that a game must only have realistic graphics and gore to be playable, and that all other consoles suck besides their own.
Basically, idiots who have no appreciation for the older systems and know nothing about actual gaming.

Well, you never know- that's what everyone thought of the Wii before it came out, and that turned out alright   =D
 
Tried Kinect as well, and it didn't work. As for the 3DS, I think I'll have a look into it- quite a few upcoming titles (including SSB4 and Rollercoaster Tycoon 3DS), as well as some of the ones already out (IE. SSF4 and Ocarina of Time 3D) have got me interested in it.

My issue with games now is that they are becoming depressingly generic Call of Duty clones, every shooter now has the same weapons, damage, and look to them, no variance, and it all just feels like the same game I bought the other day.

The archetype that Nintendo is childish comes from third party game makers, most of which are giant stinkers and deserve to be hanged, burned, crucified, and be given a parking ticket. First and second party games have been excellent, and SEGA's and CapCom's games also being very good.

If you truly want a hard core Nintendo games, they'res Metriod, Zelda, Sin & Punishment, and Golden Sun.
