Looks like the xb1 has dropped to tree fiddy indefinately.

Things just got real only in the US. They need to drop the price everywhere else.

Correct, it's the kinectless version.

The kinect bundle is still $500. A stand alone kinect is $150.

Short/sweet, the kinect isn't worth your money at this point.

It's a novelty. It's not as necessary as the gamepad.

The wii u is dope! ONLY for it's exclusives/backwards compatibility.

I'd reccomned compiling a list of about 5 wii u games you really want to play.

As people say, the wii u is a good side console.

95% of wii u's exclusives are

captain toad

super smash bros

super mario 3d world

bayonetta 2

new super mario bros

just to name a few

I can't recommend getting a wii u at $300, might as well cop a ps4. Especially since the games don't drop in price like xb1's. Every wii u game I've got costs about $30-$60.

Given that, you'd be spending like $160-$200 on 4 games.

You can get a nintendo refurbed wii u for $200, but it's out of stock at this moment.

Also the wii u has backwards compatibility, so you can play old/cheap wii hidden gems.

[COLOR=#red]Thanks for the input...

Honestly my 5 would be:
Smash Bros
Mario Kart
Super Mario World
and if the have something like the sports game they had previously for family games. (Baseball/Bowling/Football/Boxing etc.)

And yes I don't think I would pay for a brand new one at that price, which is a good point. But that referb price is nice. When they are back in stock I'll be copping. Thanks for the input Iyen![/COLOR]

No worries.

You're talking about this game right?



Also you may need a pro controller.

 

[Deleted member 37754]

[COLOR=#red]Yep, that's the one.

Yea I figured that as well. I do have a coupon from GS, looks like it would come out to $180.

Is Wii U external HD compatible? [/COLOR]

Yup, but like the xb1 you have to used the hdd only for the wii.

For whatever reason, nintendo recommends hdds that have a power supply of it's own rather than using a usb powered hdd.

Games runs off the disk, so you should be good on space. If you're not purchasing digital games.

Yes sir I got mine earlier too...

Been playing Halo 3 the last few days and it's been working pretty good I must say.

Only thing is being stuck with crap team mates.

I miss dominating and pub stomping in Ghosts though

Put it back in and played a quick game and went ham.

Have Halo games always made you restart the whole damn level if you try to save and quit and then try to come back to it later or is MCC still losing saves?

MCC things.

@DJYoung08  Have you ever streamed using the Twitch app? Do you notice that the audio never syncs properly? Or is that just mine, cause I watch rebroadcasts of my stream the stuff that I say never lines up with when I said it whilst playing and I can tell. Its like a 2-3 second delay.

This is what they spent a month doing....... Embarrassing.

What about in game crashing, uneven teams, halo 3 sound/aim/stat tracking, h2c hit reg, anti aim, connectivity issues/joining friends, ETC ETC ETC.

I've honestly given up hope that this game will ever be fixed. They clearly cant do it, and will continue to bide time until H5 then drop this game like a rock and not even care because they wont need to.

This is partly my fault, I expected too much from them. Now I know better

Even if you like H5, you shouldnt be buying it after the way they've handled the last two games they made. They are the epitome of incompetent and will do you H5 fans dirty like they've done me. Speak with your wallets, maybe then M$ will wise up and fire all these people and start it over.

My reaction to Anti giving up hope on Halo

Halo is officially doomed
