Hmm... Hmmmmmm...

Pretty sure there will still be plenty of surprises, don't worry.

Wowzers! Mind you, that is one game I really wouldn't want to play on a tiny screen. Doubt it will happen, but it'd be cool if the new characters are also made available as paid DLC on Wii U, without the need for the 3DS ver. Surprising how this doesn't appear to be N3DS exclusive.

Any suggestions or requests for what to feature in the remaining countdown numbers?

Wow. That is amazing! The plaza and stages look absolutely stunning at night, and Judd waking up and dancing is the icing on the cake. Proper hyped for the first Splatfest.

Or, how would you feel about a Retro made Pokémon game? Could you dig it?

Can you dig it, ey? Iiiiiiinteresting... Would be mad if they were working on a music/rhythm game. And no doubt make many people go mad too. But at the same time, it's probably going to be Donkey Kong related... ...maybe it's DK Jungle Beat 2!

Awesome GIF of Splatoon as a retro platformer appeared on neogaf: http://jonroru.tumblr.com/

Must say that was a peculiar observation for you to make Retro_Link. Well, as someone that's recently posted "played for x amount of hours, still enjoying it" it's not like I haven't also given my impressions on various aspects of the game, since the global testfire: But anyway, don't see what the problem is if people just want to post that they're enjoying the game, how long they've played, and nothing more.No one should have to justify or explain why they like a game, if they don't feel like doing so.

Sorry amigo. That would be sweeeet.

And I can't think of any other thread where people that have no intention of getting the game in question keep coming back to remind everyone that is enjoying it of their disappointment, but there you go. Would you rather not know?

Hoping for some news on this at E3, it's gotta be coming out sometime this year... right?

Been looking into the PS4 fan noise situation a bit more. It appears to be completely random as to whether you get a noisy one or not. Here's a vid which demonstrates the level of noise I'm talking about, for those lucky enough to have a silent model: Skip to around 1:10 for the part when it really kicks in. And here's another vid by the same guy, after getting a replacement system: To be honest I can live with it, just crank up my surround sound, and it's obviously not an issue when using headphones. But I do worry that my PS4 could die on me before I even get to play the games I've been looking forward to. What do the N-E tech-heads reckon, cause for concern, or nothing to worry about?

That's 40 at the moment though. Chances of that being H-o-T's final playtime on Splatoon is somewhere between slim and none. They'll keep releasing cool new stuff, and he'll be back, every time... I guarantee. I'm closing in on 60 hours after tonight's session, still discovering things in both single and multiplayer. :awesome: Splatoon will easily be a 100-200+ hour game for me. Dis game is off the chain.

Yeah, any friends that are online (in a battle) will be highlighted and at the top of that list. Absolutely. I was glued to it for the first couple of days, kept me up into the early hours without even realising!

That guy has such a punchable face. How people find him funny I'll never know... thank God. Anyway, I'm now super hyped for this year's E3. Can't wait to see what new surprises Nintendo have up their sleeves, and potential additions to existing games like MK8, Smash Bros. and Splatoon!

Dayum, I'd buy it.

The Best Gaming Music Ever and no Splatunes!? Shit man, let's rectify that right away: Audio Audio

I can't believe how simple/limited some people's perception of quality is these days when it comes to videogames, it's almost as if they think games and everything in them just develop themselves or appear by magic. To disregard all the hard work by developers just because a game is missing a certain feature, or doesn't include a lengthy single player mode is not a cool way to go about judging the overall quality of a game. Understandably not everyone has knowledge of the game development process and the work involved, but those that do should be showing a hell of a lot more respect to the creators in this industry. But hey, it's always easier to be critical, right? Like I'm being right now. I'm just thankful to also be able to see and appreciate the good in things, and there's plenty to admire in Splatoon. Spent the evening replaying some of the single player mode... You must have JavaScript enabled on your device to view Miiverse posts that have been embedded in a website.

I wouldn't say that, it's just a really difficult weapon to use well. The tactical benefits (especially in Splat Zones) are immense! If one member of the team is using the brush they can paint a path for the rest to swim towards the Splat Zone in no time! :awesome: It's more of a support weapon really. I had someone on my team get 100-ish points just now.

Put together a short vid of some multiplayer moments: :awesome: WARNING! The music in this vid is from the final boss battle of Splatoon's single player mode, so potential spoiler for those that haven't finished the game yet. Enjoy! : peace: *EDIT* Be sure to switch to HD if it doesn't automatically, the standard quality is shocking!

Nya... chop! Nya... chop! Nya... chop chop! Praying that they announce a European version (with Japanese audio option) at E3.

Just beat Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes. Amazing looking/sounding game, but even with the additions and changes in this version I still really struggle with the MG gameplay. Had fun with it though, and the ending made me laugh quite a bit too, seriously, how OTT was that!? Looks like there were quite a few extra missions that got unlocked after the Hideo Kojima roll so will probably check those out at some point, see if I can improve a bit.

Lies!
