Since you really haven't had an opportunity of any significance to get one since it launched, I'd argue the very availability of the console makes it a hot deal, considering anywhere else you'll find it you'll be paying +20% over retail.
Only way I can foresee Nintendo being able to make a run with this console is a price drop to $199 and a pack in of significance, ie 3d Mario, etc.
According to industry insiders, they are already losing money on the console @ $300 due to the price of the tablet components, so I'm not sure...
The WiiU is done by any rational measure.
220k in the US during Xmas shopping season is abysmal. The leadership at Nintendo is mismanging the company into the ground, and yes, while they have sizeable cash reserves, this console fails to provide anything the market desires.
The proof...
WiiU Nov Sales roughly 220k.
They're trending Dreamcast numbers now. They need to kill it and get back to the drawing board.

Even taking the Kinect out of the box, the Xbox One is still more expensive. DDR3 prices are about as low as they are going to get, whereas the GDDR5 prices still will see cost reductions as time goes by.
I'm really wondering how MS is going to get to any sort of a price parity with their...
Well after spending a weekend with the PS4, it's a clear winner in my book.
The hardware is crazy small and seems to be engineered well overall. Remote play works like a dream. (I played Ass Creed on the shitter this weekend on the other side of the house :P)
IMO, the OS and UI are a huge...
So, before the "upgrade" of 4 GB to 8 GB, games had use of 512 MB of RAM?
Does not compute.
Unless of course they've added a whole load of OS functionality. (Likely the multitasking.)
At the end of the day, I'm still in for a PS4.
Pay2Win?
What game are you playing?
Any of the DLC is the same abilities that are in the box just arranged differently. They are slightly different and by most accounts, worse than the ones in the box.
To answer the other question, if you like COH, you'll enjoy COH2. It's different...
I've owned both consoles this entire gen.
I will not be picking up a XBone.
Sony wins my business for at least taking concerns of gamers as an important part of their strategy.
Furthermore, I really don't appreciate being told, "if you don't like it, go f-k yourself" by MS.
It's...
The bonuses are nothing like they were on COHO. Not even in the same universe.
They are small bonuses that allow you to customize.
It's a good middle ground.
I'm in the same boat.
I'm running an A10-5800k on the media server. I've served 4 simultaneous 1080p streams, (1 to LG Smart TV without need to transcode), 3 requiring transcoding and didn't have one single issue.
I went with the AMD set up simply because it was less expensive and had...
I'd agree.
Unfortunately, I think much malcontent with the judges ruling in here comes from the whole attitude, "I think I'm a great driver, I think others aren't therefore they should be punished.." mentality.
What they fail to understand, especially in this case (I'm from the...
Absolute nonsense.
You have a right to face your accuser. When you are given a citation by a police officer, you have the right to face him/her in court. There's due process.
In this instance, there is none. There's no evidence that you were actually driving the vehicle. (I believe...
Sega and Games Workshop have reached an agreement to work in "good faith" going forward. The Dawn of War series should remain intact.

Any IPs that weren't purchased today will likely be gobbled up from the shell of THQ later on. I'm pretty sure that's how MS wound up with some of the Midway IPs. I'd assume things will be similiar here.
I'm guessing because they were based in Austin didn't help. (Most publishers have developers in Austin).
Minimum bid was 500k. I'm also guessing that Relic fetched so high because COH2 is basically ready to ship. Additionally, I'm also guessing that the development costs on any internal...
If correct, should know later today. Rumors yesterday coming out were that Sega had the high bid for Relic/Company of Heroes, but the bidding went into overtime today, so who knows.
According to sources, Clearlake is out and THQ as we know it ceases to exist.
Announcements about what IPs and developers are going where should be announced sometime later today.
Funny, I was about to ask the same thing.
I also chased the MMORPG releases looking for something similar to the feeling WoW gave me when I first started playing back in Vanilla.
The truth is, it doesn't exist. It's likely it will never exist again. It's not really the fault of the...
Not to mention hacking terminals and turrets. Nothing like hacking a terminal in an enemy base and then having Armor spawn all over them... or hacking a turret while they enemy is using it, and watching them booted... lol...
PS2 freaking rocks. This game will only get better as time goes...
