Two loot driven games were released a couple of weeks ago in Borderlands 2 and Torchlight 2. Both are sequels that improved on every aspect of the originals. You can read my review for Borderlands 2 here in fact. So, what makes Torchlight 2 so much better than the original? Read on to find out.
Shoot. Loot. Repeat.You all know of it. In 1767 a number of colonists had said enough is enough. They refused to accept the imported tea of Britain, and instead of letting them take it back home, they tossed it into the harbor. But is this the whole story? Have we been told everything that happened? It does not appear so, and we will get the full story on Halloween.
Remember that big list of somthing like 50 games that are going to launch in the Wii U's launch window? You don't? That was only a week ago guys, maybe you should look into some ginko or memory games. Moving on, they have been kind enough to narrow down the window on a few of these games. So, without a further ado, I give you part of the list, only this time with some dates!
So you have your Wii U pre-ordered, but now you have to figure out what you are going to play. This is a system launch so that typically means 1, MAYBE 2 good games when the system is brought out and then 6+ months before the next game that is actually worth anything comes out. Well in order to combat this Nintendo is releasing 50 games during the Wii U launch window (November 18, 2012 - March 31, 2013. Here is what that window looks like for us early adopters.
And the battle for the Wii U can officially begin on November 18, 2012. You have two differently priced options for this system, they are as follows:
There you have it, two different systems with two different price points. I honestly don’t see the reason someone will get the Basic bundle over the Deluxe one, but that just means that I am not the target audience of it. They also announced that there will be around 50 games in the launch windows (11/18/2012 - 03/31/2013) for the system to try and make it worthwhile for those early adopters. Games are going to run around $59.99 each for the Wii U at launch as well. More to come later on which games are planned to come out in this window, but it looks pretty strong, or at least interesting.
That leaves me with two questions.
1) Can Nintendo repeat the success they had with the Wii?
2) Who out there is going to try for a day one (or two) purchase?
Tomorrow is the day that Reggie fills us in with the official release date and price point of the Wii U here in North America. The press conference starts at 10:00 AM ET and will be live streamed from here.
Now this starts just in time for me to clock in to my day job, so I will be a tad late on reporting the news to you all, but rest assured it will make its way here.
