It looks alot like plant vs zombies or is that just me?


Well both are 4 vs 4 colorful shooters, so...

PvZ: GW is more than just 4 v 4

I doubt they will advertise it much when their competitors have better online offerings for free aswell. I'm sure splatoon will be good like most ninty games but you should probably wait until you play it or it's reviewed before calling it amazing.


What?

The ps3 and 360 have free online and way more and better online games than the Wii U. Also with next gen you get2 free games a month for your 5$ a month subscription plus 2 more on the ps3 if you have it. That's better than free online and no free games.  


That's true but Nintendo could still try to spin it by ignoring the fact that you get other benefits than just online play lel.

It's about controlling territory, so it doesn't really play like any other arena based shooter, to my knowledge.



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

Well, of course there's the King of the Hill/Ring/Capture the Flag, whatever; but the whole map in Splatoon is the territory to control, you must paint the whole thing in other to succeed.

Free online for 3 games people will play competitively online? I'd be pissed if they charged for that too. There's at least 45 multiplayer games on PS4 and Xbox One each.


Eyyyyy! It still helps make it a good secondary console choice!

Then MS and Sony can retaliate by showing a list of the competitive multiplayer online games you can play on their consoles compared to the Wii U.
