UK Retailer Drops Wii U, Fez Developer Cancels Fez II ? And Bioshock Infinite DLC


Good afternoon everyone.

Got some info on the situation with the Wii U at a UK retailer, the developer of FEZ has cancelled Fez II and we've learned what the DLC for Bioshock Infinite will be.

UK Retailer Drops the Wii U

A Wal-Mart subsidiary known as Asda is no longer stocking the Wii U console at any of its 555 retail stores across the country.

The retailer says it will continue to stock selected Wii U titles through its online store.

"Asda continues to offer customers a selection of Wii U games and accessories through Asda Direct, but these ranges are currently not on offer in Asda shops, Asda will stock [Wii U] games on a title-by-title merit basis as they come along through Asda Direct. We will continue to support Nintendo as a format holder partner."

The Wii U will continue to stock online for Asda customers but is currently out of stock due to a recent sale on the hardware. Past months have shown Asda repeatedly slashing prices of 3DS hardware to shift stock. The retailer is still accepting preorders for Microsoft's Xbox One and Sony's Playstation 4, both of which are due to launch later this year.

Nintendo refused to comment on the situation but did say it was "looking forward" to the Wii U's year ahead.

Fez II Cancelled ?

Designer Phil Fish took to Twitter after comments made by  Marcus "Annoyed Gamer" Beer on GameTrailers on a podcast called "Invisible Walls" made some very harsh comments about indie game creator of Braid Jonathan Blow and Phil Fish for not answering questions pertaining to a story published by Game Informer about the Xbox One allowing indie developers to self publish.

Some gaming outlets had asked Jonathan and Phil for their thoughts on the matter, neither wanted to comment, Phil in particular.

After the comments that the "Annoyed Gamer" made Phil Fish took to Twitter, what ensued was rage and frustration. Phil insulted Annoyed Gamer in a series of tweets, one of them telling Marcus Beer to "kill himself".

At the end of the rant the last tweet from Phil was "I'm done. FEZ II is canceled. Goodbye."

Bioshock Infinite DLC

The three pieces of DLC has been announced for Bioshock Infinite today.

The first piece of DLC was actually released today for 5 dollars or 400 Microsoft Points called "Clash in The Clouds".


And a two part DLC called "Burial At Sea" taking place on the eve of the Rapture Revolution, where you play as Private Eye Booker DeWitt meeting the girl Elizabeth.


We will be exploring Rapture once more my fellow Bioshock fans and from what I've heard, the gameplay will be a combination of Bioshock and Bioshock Infinite.

Starting with the UK article.

So the Wii U is sold out in the stores but you can still buy the Wii U from Asda online. It's a good news bad news situation to me, good news is that the Wii U sold out at Asda, bad news is that you won't be able to go to Asda to pick up a Wii U to come back home and set it up.

The Fez article.

Look I didn't play Fez, I've read that it's been a very successful title and that it's a good indie game.

However I say to Phil, you're popular and you're on the internet. You will always be criticized for anything you do even if the overall reaction is very positive.

Ignore that guy Marcus Beer, think about your fans and those who will support you and Fez II.

Finally the Bioshock Infinite DLC.

                               OH MY GOD!!!!
Oh man I had a nerdgasm this morning when I saw the trailer to "Burial At Sea" we get to see Rapture again and this time we'll be able to see it before the war. It looks so beautiful and the artwork to the DLC poster I absolutely love.

I hear that Burial At Sea will be released in 2014 but I hope to god it comes sooner.

That's it for now guys.

Thanks for reading I'll see you guys later.

Call of Duty Black Ops 2 Weapon Guide:M-TAR Assault Rifle

Hello everyone, time for my first weapon guide of Black Ops 2. Today we're looking at the starting assault rifle, the M-TAR. History The Micro-Tar is a micro version of the TAR-21 rifle. It's designed to take advantage of a shorter barrel which means decreased recoil but increased accuracy. Designed for special fores units, it is capable of converting to different ammo variants such as the NATO standard 5.56 cartridge and the 9mm submachine gun round. It is also designed to be capable of attaching a Suppressor, as of 2009 a grenade launcher was being designed to attach to the M-TAR, the M-TAR can attach the M203PI grenade launcher. If you're a FPS veteran then you saw this weapon first in Battlefield 3 as part of the Close Quarters DLC, for COD veterans we saw this weapon's bigger brother, the TAR-21 in Modern Warfare 2. I'm warning you now, the M-TAR is not the TAR-21 we saw in Modern Warfare 2. Multiplayer Stats, Attachments and Performance In gam

Retro Gazette Reviews:Batman Returns SNES Review

Hello everyone. Welcome to another one of my Retro Reviews. Today we're going to be looking at a personal favorite of mine from the Super Nintendo era. Batman Returns. Story Music If you can't tell all ready from the intro video above, the music to Batman Returns for the SNES sounds great and does a good job of recreating some of the songs we heard in the film. My personal favorite stage music is from Stage 7 when you enter Arctic World, The Liberation of Gotham track sounds amazing in 16 bit audio. It's strange to review the music in a video game but the audio stands out so much and does an amazing job, again of recreating the films' soundtrack. Presentation The graphics and detail of Batman Returns is very good and ironically is much more colorful than the Tim Burton film. Gotham City, although currently suffering from a clown riot looks fantastic and Konami yet again does a good job of recreating scenes from the film, you see all these backgro
