And those contracts that come with an iPhone 4S are not cheap, and the iPhone 4S as a seperate phone costs at it's cheapest 649,-. So the argument of saying that you expect more from a 3DS and Vita then from an iPhone because it's they are/were more expensive, however you don't count the price of the iPhone seperately and without a contract. Yeah sort off unfair no?

Fair enough, but that doesn't invalidate the Vita argument. It's more powerful than the iPhone yet it's much cheaper.
Considering the 3DS used to cost as much as the Vita costs now, the price argument you raised doesn't really hold water. If the 3DS used to cost as much as the Vita costs now (Assuming Nintendo reduced its profits or even decided gave up any profit to increase sales instead), why isn't it as powerful as the Vita?
Although that's a question that isn't really worth discussing.

Yeah I didn't think so, because it really doesn't underdo for Infinity Blade... Hell it doesn't even underdo that much of RE5, not the same level, but close without a doubt.

Judging by the screnshots, it doesn't really look that fantastic and it should be reminded that the 3DS runs on a much lower resolution than the iPhone.

So because on the DS it's small and next to eachother it's a useful machanic, but because it's a seperate screen on the WiiU and bigger it's a gimmick. That honestly makes no sense, those few meters aren't going to make that exact same idea useless or gimmicky.

It makes sense. Just because it works for the handhelds, doesn't mean it's going to work for the WiiU. For instance, you can easily pay attention to both screens on a 3/DS, but you certainly can't on the WiiU. So the idea of using both screens on the go is pretty much ruined there.

But you assume that those articles are right, you assume that it's weaker. So I guess it's valid that I said that those sources are as trust worthy as a man with two horns and a tail, untill Nintendo announced officially something you can't know.
And with those letters just proving my point there, you agree that it's idiotic so need to to go into that any further.

I didn't assume the articles are right, you're once again forgetting what I said before, just before the idiotic letters (Which were supposed to be idiotic, by the way).

Key word being "speculating".
What I believe is going to happen (i.e. The WiiU not being any better than the current consoles) doesn't have anything to do with what those articles said.
Also, care to point where I said the WiiU is going to be weaker?

Has the floor plan been released already?

MyRaider4Life · 12-05-12, 00:29

Apparently this is the floor plan:

There's nothing on the E3 website, but that one looks legit.

_Awestruck_ · 12-05-12, 01:33

Yeah, it's probably real. It's actually very similar to last year's.

No Rockstar At E3 2012

Duh no GTA V at E3. But it confirms Tomb Raider has more chance to win more nominations and awards at this years E3 again.

Kojima Productions teasing "big things" for E3 next month

Quote:

"Kojima Productions has big plans for E3 this year, with the latest Kojima Productions Report podcast confirming that fans of the studio have “a lot to really look forward to” at the conference in June."

Oh, bunch of hipsters. 2k, Rockstar, stop trying to make skipping E3 happen. It's not going to happen.

Weemanply109 · 12-05-12, 03:58

Well, it better happen this time around.

Tomb Raider is in desperate need of recognition and can't be overshadowed.

I am sad that R* isn't there, I want to see GTAV
