Don&#8217;t hold me to that just yet.  I&#8217;ll have more to say in the review later this week, but suffice to say Undercover City strikes me as the purest expression of Traveller&#8217;s Tale&#8217;s gleeful Lego gameplay so far.<\/p>\n<p>For all intents and purposes, Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate is also WiiU only, but it has limited connectivity with the moderately gimped 3DS version.  I skipped the last-gen Wii version of Monster Hunter (this is basically the same game, but with extra content, HD graphics, and full multiplayer support), so it&#8217;s all new to me.  But having played Monster Hunters, I&#8217;m experiencing an overwhelming sense of &#8220;here we go again&#8221;, equal parts dread and excitement.  Getting deep into a Monster Hunter game is as easy and nearly as dire as falling down a sinkhole.<\/p>\n<p>Also WiiU only is the WiiU version of Need for Speed: Most Wanted, which features unique multiplayer shenanigans involving the gamepad.  I&#8217;m hoping this will compliment ZombiU as a go-to game for people on the same couch who are a little too dignified to resort to party games.  <\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re interested in action heroes the size of refrigerators and with about as much personality, Microsoft has a new off-season Gears of War release, this time created by the folks who made Bulletstorm.  And if you want a platformer that demands skill, Alien Spidy is incredibly gratifying when you get it right and incredibly aggravating the rest of the time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[30],"class_list":["post-19980","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-features","tag-wallet-threat"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 -
