Just checked, apparently they only announced it yesterday! Explains why it wasn't on Tweakers yet.

Anyway $15 (so €15) is pretty fucking sweet. :D

Pikmin 3
new Rayman
Zombi U

That's all the Wii U has going for it right now as far as I can see. That presentation was a bit of a failure.

Just checked some of the Halo 4 gameplay. Reminds me so much of metroid prime

I read that MS hired some of the lead designer from Metroid Prime to work on Halo 4. I guess that's a good sign, but trying to be Metroid is not a positive direction for Halo in my eyes. The new trailer sucked pretty hard.

and Heavy Rain if you are contemplating topping yourself while watching a video game.

Watch Dogs looks absolutely ridiculous. This could potentially become an all time favourite.

Quite similar to Uncharted probably, yeah, though a bit unfair given how much Uncharted ripped off Tomb Raider. So many sequences in UC3 were straight out of Tomb Raider games. I love the puzzles in the TR though, hopefully they will still be as good.

Its a completely legitimate comparison as uncharted gutted the exploration and puzzle aspects of tomb raider for cinematic linearity

and now tomb raider is also chasing the same cinematic linearity.

I hope the actual game isn't as dumbed down as what they've shown thus far. A new take on Tomb Raider should have been closer to the freedom of Skyrim and Farcry, going linear just makes me wonder wtf they were thinking.

I wouldn't say it's a bad thing that they share similarities, it may have little innovations within that we've not seen.

I wonder if any Hitman: Absolution stuff will come out, that looks so good. Blood Money was pretty good for an early current gen game.

Fucking Watch Dogs though, shitting hell. Even if it is graphically downscaled for the consoles, it'll still look good.

I doubt anything GTA 5 related will surface, Rockstar seem very exhibition-averse and let their games do the talking at release time
