Aaaand the WiiU version is gimped again. Let's bet: The WiiU version with half the game missing will be at least $10 more expensive than the PS3/Xbox360 version of Arkham Origins. 2 week sig control. Does anyone want to take it?


I'll take it.

Ok, make the sig as embarassing as possible. Taking the MP out and still selling at the same price (so far) is atrocious, but at least they still cost the same. 3 months should be enough time for you to find a good sig for me XD

And they will complain about the WiiU sales later on.

You don't sound confident in your own bet xD

Interesting Wii U news!


I see what you did there !

Weren´t those the exact words the IGN guy used when Rayman went Multiplatform, the people got hyped, expected something great....and the guy (Rich George ?) had a "WiiU is still struggling for relevance" article ready.

Yep!

And here's the excuse for anyone who's interested:

"MP will be available for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC," a Warner Bros. spokesperson told Eurogamer. "The team is focusing development efforts on platforms with the largest MP audience."

I am encouraged. Looks like fun. Good to be a PS3, PC or X360 owner right now.


Subtle as a kick in the teeth...:P


haha of course I kid. I am not too interested in the MP really. If the Wii U version is the best in terms of framerate and visuals I'll get that one. Otherwise, PS3 version as always. MP is not a big deal for me in games like these. I'll likely play it for no more than 10 hours cumulatiely (unless it is REALLY good), while the campaign will get at least 5 or so play throughs from me.



 

Playstation = The Beast from the East

Sony + Nintendo = WIN! PS3 + PSV + PS4 + Wii U + 3DS

Why would I? I made the bet when I was absolutely fuming and before fact checking. The games DO cost the same, the WiiU version just misses one half of the game. That doesn't mean I'll get to pussy out of the bet.

Wii U doesn't get the multiplayer? Best version confirmed!



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

You went retarded back there e_e

But anyway, I'm not letting you escape.

I think the multiplayer looks kindof cool. It looks like you have one person playing as Batman and Robin in the traditional Arkham Asylum/City fashion, and then you have the other people playing as the enemies as a third person shooter trying to kill them it looks like. Or maybe that's just one of the modes because it also looks like there's third a third person shooter in there as well.

While it looks like it'll be fun for a short while, it's probably going to be broken. The idea behind this doesn't sound like it'd hold up very well if you have people exploiting it.
