The frame-rate seems much higher on the wii version when compared to the ps3/360, definitely on par with the PC version with similar settings. With all things considered it seems like a better version of the game, it just seems like Jeff is trying to pick it apart for things that he overlooked in other versions.

Man I NEVER notice this shit but scope on that machine gun that highlights dudes (used around 0:48) has the model # "V4SQ33Z". Could be an Aliens reference to Vasquez who uses the Smart Gun that has a tracking HUD on it.

Videogame devs are nerds so... probably.

It's official, Nintendo has entered the HD realm. The Wii U is built from the ground up to be an HD system, therefore, nobody can use the "hardware limitation" excuse any more when a game is complete shit.

Watching that blue bar fill up was exciting but it kind of slowed down once they started playing video games.

You know, if I hadn't bought this game on the Xbox and had a WiiU, I would probably buy this game on this system. The idea that I could play the game on the touch screen while my wife watches TV or play the game in bed in the other room sounds really awesome. I'm sure the controls aren't near as good as the Xbox controller though. I wonder if you can play the game with a pro controller but view it on the gamepad. Someone test this and get back to me!

@ZAcKHINN: I'm increasingly reaching that opinion. I never disliked him, but he grows on me more and more.

And well done to Vinny for yet again turning downtime into an incredible time. That man is truly a valuable asset.

I've gotta respect the Giant Bomb ideal of not committing to review til they can review every section of the game, I'm glad this is my ultimate source for vidya game news.

Framerate looks super smooth though, but I guess at this point thats their thing.

Trust Giant bomb to steam and record video of them fixing their internet. Can't find entertainment like this in any other site.
