Not many people own this particular version of Need for Speed: Most Wanted, but I must give it my recommendation if you willing to take the time to learn it; it’s pretty darn good as an arcade-y racer. The glitches I cannot be quite as positive about, but I think we had some good fun here either which way! Enjoy. :]
Heart Machine’s 2D action RPG “Hyper Light Drifter” may make its way to Wii U.
The developer posted a new message on the game’s Kickstarter yesterday, and noted that its new game could hit Nintendo’s console if funds reach $500,000. A Wii U version would “be possible”, according to the developer.
The message in full states:
“We’ve had a lot of request for Wii U support. We hear you! It’s a platform that deserves some love, and we’re currently in talks with Nintendo directly on the subject. I think if we can reach the $500,000 goal it will be possible – though keep in mind that any new platform costs a fair amount of money and time to QA and port over/translate, with their own set of requirements, so it’s not as simple as one would hope. We’ll keep everyone updated as we continue to push for this gem of a platform.”
Hyper Light Drifter has raised a little over $325,000 on Kickstarter thus far. There are two weeks remaining, so hitting $500,000 may not be too far-fetched.
Nintendo is planning extended maintenance for the Wii U and 3DS this coming Monday. Online play, rankings, and other related Internet elements will be affected.
An announcement on Miiverse also confirms that the service will be affected by maintenance on Monday. Features such as friend requests, block list and messages will be unavailable.
The maintenance will begin at 8 AM PT. It’s expected to end a few hours later – specifically 5 PM PT.
A poll taken by YouGov asked UK citizens if they believe that playing video games can cause real-life aggression to bubble up. Respondents were only able to answer “yes” or “no” to the poll, as no “sometimes” or “maybe” answer was provided. Here are the results:
– 61% of respondents said “Yes” when asked if games increase real-life aggression
– 57% said that games are a good way to let out frustration
– Old people/those who haven’t played games think worse of games than young people/those who have played games
Don’t read too far into this– it’s just one study.
