I already have it on PS4 so I'll not be picking it up. I would've done though if it came out when the others did.

If Sony sort out the analogue sticks; too loose, poor feel on the thumb (need thumb protectors) and placement on the pad (I prefer the placement of MS's and actually Nintendo's), they'd have the best pad there is. Also, I find the analogue triggers a little too short on length, sometimes my fingers slip off. I'd rather have a smaller D-Pad and smaller buttons, as well as a smaller grouping of the buttons, so that the analogues could both be raised... similar to the Gamepad's. If the Gamepad lost the screen, thus reducing in size, got analogue triggers and was moulded like the GC pad (but keeping the exact same positioning and grouping of analogues and face buttons), it'd be perfect! Obviously this is all going to be different for people as everyone's hands are different.

I'll tell you when we're next playing Splatoon together... oh wait. Hehe

I can see why it won best shooter, although it's not in my opinion, but I don't think it deserves best multiplayer when it's so restrictive with what you can do with friends, including not being able to chat to them. Still, the core gameplay is fantastic!

It still sounds like he thinks they're too busy still playing the Wii to me...

Well I've put a few hours into this now and after getting used to the maps and the boost-movement I'm starting to really enjoy it. I'd say it's the best CoD since MW3, which I'd say is when the series started going downhill but I still really enjoyed that game. I'm maybe only half way through the first prestige so I haven't unlocked everything but there doesn't seem to be anything too overpowered and weapon & perk balance seems very good... probably the most balanced in any CoD post MW! The Specialists are alright but sometimes you get unlucky in that you're on a streak and then you get one-shotted which is a bugger, but still, you get these bonuses too and can wreck others' streaks so it balances out I guess. I'm having loads of fun with it overall (only played the multiplayer) and will sink more time into it... I reckon we'd have a blast if a few of us got online together, set up an N-E Clan... but with Battlefront covering most people's need for a shooter I guess it's not really a must-have. @Hero\-of\-Time @Blade @dazzybee if you get tired with Battlefront I would recommend you consider this!

I find it funny how he thinks people aren't buying the WiiU because everyone still plays on their Wii.

Given my backlog and games we already know enough of, I'd like to see RIME.

I'm fairly certain they couldn't do it. They're incapable... or perhaps the console itself is.

I agree wholeheartedly. It definitely could have been the best shooter this year, but wow they ballsed that up!

I'd like to see a little action from Zelda, so we can see how the gameplay is and if it's changed/advanced at all. A decent trailer would be nice too. That's it from Nintendo. I don't think they could do/are doing anything else that will excite me about the WiiU.

It's a good game but it's not even the best shooter this year in my eyes.

Splatoon is ok for a quick session but it's far too annoying for long play sessions. It's such a shame there are things holding it back from being as good as it could be!

I game when I can be arsed/when I fancy gaming and prioritise many things above it. I can't be bothered delving into a big world and being absorbed into a game at the moment which is why I've a big back-log to play through. I still enjoy multiplayer gaming at the mo though and will stick something on when I can be bothered (Battlefront - albeit I've not been on for a week).

Fuck me, that was one video... that ever only happened once... how's it obligatory?! Haha

Hahaha, gits!

Matching tops! Haha! Neither matched you cheeky bugger!

I agree @Emasher, I don't see why people find it so hard to just say so. It's not like you're killing their puppy or something, you're just being polite. I spent the weekend in Wales for my girlfriend's mum's birthday. Luckily I'd already met everyone that was there so there were no nerves about meeting people. I had a great time and get on with them all really well... good times! ...also, you know you're loved up when you change your Facebook profile pic to one with the mrs (yep, I have).

It's like an arcadey version of Battlefield but with Star Wars skins. It plays kind of an inbetween of Battlefield and CoD. Although it has a dedicated air battle mode which is everything Star Fox Zero wishes it could be! If you're not a multiplayer FPS fan it may not be for you.

If the WiiU had party chat and the big Third Party games of course I wouldn't have bought a PS4! Party chat is the biggest thing for me though, not being able to talk to your friends on the WiiU is criminal!

You may see me on this weekend but it won't actually be me, it's my flatmate. I'm away this weekend so if you send any invites and they don't get accepted, that'll be why. Although he may well join in, he knows @Blade and will happily take the piss out of me with you guys. Haha

I agree, I don't think they will. I actually think their next home console (if completely separate from a handheld - not a hybrid of sorts) will sell worse than the WiiU. I doubt it'll break 10 million.

Like you'd not believe! I've enjoyed some games on it, but the majority of games have been below par and their multiplayer offerings have been dire because of the lack of in-game options and voice-chat... how they've made these games but restrict you from really enjoying the experience with friends is beyond me! Seriously, if the NX doesn't have voice-chat at an OS level I'll not buy it... unless it's second hand and dirt cheap. They absolutely have to have party chat!

I know it's been a key point in that I don't want to buy an NX thanks to Nintendo's decision making and it's console this generation.

I still say it needs a cooperative multiplayer to interest me.
