I had a feeling that's happen, we've looked really out of sorts as of late. The Ramires offside decision was close but we didn't do enough generally.

WiiU display in Manchester Arndale today (I didn't bother going on anything, I couldn't be arsed)...

Absolutely love it. One of my friends played this game so much he still knows the order of the levels and exactly what enemies etc appear in them. Insane.

I must say, after the August update this game is starting to live up to it's potential a little. It still has niggles that don't quite elevate it to greatness in my eyes but it's finally a more well-rounded effort. I'd give it an 8/10 after a re-review. Although I'll not be on much this weekend, hopefully I'll get on at some point for some more Private/Squad Battle shenanigans over Skype!

Why take it so seriously Serebii? It's like you see it as a personal insult, it's not. It's a mini-rant as I feel Nintendo are doing something that doesn't make sense. Also, I never said Nintendo think their consumers have double digit IQ's... I said it's LIKE they think that, that is how it appears to me (albeit exaggerated). So it's not an asinine statement. It's how I feel and so it's perfectly valid. Why do you never complain when I make over exaggerated positive comments like Xenoblade and Zelda being "boner-inducing" and that after watching videos of them I "nerd-gasm and make a mess of my pants"? They're over the top statements of the ilk I come out with but you never have issue with them. Just so people know I think the game looks great, even if I think Nintendo do make silly implementations within the game. I'm not complaining for the sake of complaining, I'm doing so because I find what they're doing doesn't make sense.

I disagree completely @Serebii, I'm not complaining for the sake of complaining. I'm complaining because it doesn't make sense to me. The only thing I can think of is that Nintendo thinks it's fans aren't capable gamers and so I say it. Other games might do it and for any level creators that do I'd complain all the same. You can see in my posts above I think the game looks fantastic, but I'm not going to be quiet when I think it does things stupidly, we shouldn't have to, don't get all high and mighty saying we shouldn't complain! @Kaepora_Gaebora, I meant no insult, in all honesty I hadn't registered your post as I scanned through. It's a mini-rant in frustration with Nintendo, built up from Splatoon and now this. I'm sorry you saw this as a slight against you, I don't mean it like that, which is why I go on to say they could do an easy mode and expert mode to cater to both audiences. In regards to things like CoD unlocks etc, I feel that's different, this is a level editor. Not having an item to create the level you want is different to not having a different gun to shoot. On a side note, I do want everything unlocked in the CoDs from the start, those that played CoD with me will know this, I hated having to prestige to get the custom class slots unlocked and I complained about it, it's not like I didnt, I don't just complain about Nintendo!

Personally I don't get it, then again I tend not to understand Nintendo logic these days. Why they think their fans are simple-minded idiots who'd get confused or overwhelmed by content is beyond me. Why would they do it? If they feel some people might be overwhelmed why not do an easy mode where things unlock in time but also do an expert mode for those that are quite capable and would like everything straight away..? How hard could that be?! I don't get this drip-feeding of content that really should be there from day 1. It's like they think their fans are all double figure IQ, glazed-over eyed, drooling zombies!

@Ronnie, I'm not suggesting Nintendo's isn't strong and Phil Spencer isn't saying that Microsoft's isn't strong, he's simply saying how Nintendo's are. Look at sales of the Halo games, look at sales of God of War etc, they sell well and are renowned, they are loved IP too.

Will Rainmaker be available in Squad Battles?

You can change to 3rd Person view in Minecraft. On a quick side-note, does that mean you didn't get into/play the Metroid Prime games..?

Awesome. So, so awesome! Can't believe you've not played it @Fierce_LiNk, that's insane man!

Splatoon as game of the year?! That's crazy talk man, it's good but nowhere near that good. Back to this game though, holy crap it's better than I imagined it would be! I'm glad they've pushed the boat out on it... this is more like it Nintendo!

After Battlefront this is my next most anticipated game. It looks the dog's dangly bits!

Yeah this Splatfest was awful... still, at least I picked South Pole.

We've been very rusty after the end of season break. Unlucky not to get a pen ourselves but still, need to play better than that!

To be fair, it's the opening weekend of the new football season. Not the best weekend to have a Splatfest.

Wonderful to hear you two, congratulations!

Fantasy Football League is 1555469-471568

I'm going to get some food just now but I'll be on after, Skype as per my sig... kaveh1982

Holy crap the Slosher is amazing!!!

@Blade, too soon to think about starting a relationship, but nothing wrong with dating as long as you've a clear enough head & heart and don't lead anyone on.

I'm pretty much the same @dazzybee, I'll almost certainly be on but not sure what time.

Anyone with a WiiU yet to play this needs to get it!

No, didn't appeal to me in the slightest after I checked it out seeing how many of you guys were posting about it.

I keep forgetting about these free games, haha.
