Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 2 Comments
Disney Interactive is teasing Ant-Man for Disney Infinity 3.0. On its social media pages, the above image has been posted. It’s a clear sign that Ant-Man is coming to the game.
The only question is how Ant-Man will be represented in Disney Infinity 3.0. A figure would make sense, but a Power Disc is another possibility.
Devil’s Third – 30 FPS, no split-screen or voice chat, other specs and Itagaki comments
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 39 Comments
Tomonobu Itagaki made a Facebook post earlier today covering some additional information about the title.
First, the game is set at 30 frames per second. Split-screen has also been ruled out for offline and online play, as the team “used all the power of Wii U for single player.” There is also no voice chat because Valhalla Game Studios “maxed out its bandwidth to achieve online play by 16 users.”
Head past the break to read up on Itagaki’s full comments.
