They still have copies of Epic Mickey 2.

There's about 10 copies for the Wii and there are 2 hidden for the ps3. I hope no one takes those. But if not, I still have the wii copies there.

Which version is best? Do I go for graphics on the PS3 or motion controls for the Wii?

opinions please.

Simple, WiiU version. Best of both worlds.


but I dont have a wii U :(

although they do have that copy on sale there.

original wii or PS3 which is better?

If I was looking at Fallout New Vegas (or possibly FO3, I'm not really sure which one I would like more), would it be better to get it on PS3 or 360? And then when it comes to Ultimate Edition/GOTY edition, are there any more glitches with those? I've heard some rumors, but I didn't know for sure.

I'm rarely one to favor PC, but with those games... man it's so much easier to loot things so quickly haha.

I think the Bethesda stuff runs better on the 360 though from everything I heard over the years.

pretty sure the GOTY editions fixes most the glitches, especially in new vegas.

I was curious, I've heard things from friends and such about the Ultimate Edition of New Vegas having more problems, but I hadn't heard anything for sure.

BTW, PC is out as far as Fallout goes for me, my PC doesn't handle games.

hah I'm not sure it could possibly have more glitches than the standard launch release, that was pretty much unplayable without a patch, constant freezing and crashing.

From what I understood, the included DLCs led to more problems with large save files, seeing as the DLCs include that many more items to keep track of, and all of that being in the same save file creates more freezing and locking.

Or something like that, I'm just curious before I buy. It looks like 360 is the way to go though.

Well, the PS3 version has motion controls with the Move controller, and you can get a Move used for around $10 these days.

here's a quick run down for both version:

Audio:
PS1 version has better music and no missing misc. audio from N64 version.

Graphics:
Capcom takes advantage of the N64's extra graphical beef by adding Anti-Aliasing to the graphics. This makes everything smooth, so the visuals are no longer pixellated and everything looks far less jagged. The game looks about 30% more realistic than the PS1 version.

Controls:
You can use the Control Stick or Pad in Mega Man 64. The PS1 version is limited to the pad only.

Misc:
You can use the Rumble Pak to feel Mega Man's pain on the 64 version. The PS1 version does not support rumble.

The N64 version has 16 save files. The PS1 version has 5.

NO LOAD TIMES on the N64 version. 8)


I was about to ask this very question, but it was answered three years ago.

I assume that the games are similar enough that I can use a Mega Man Legends strategy guide with Mega Man 64?

May be a longshot here, but Gateway to Apshai...

Commodore 64 vs. Atari 8-bit vs. ColecoVision

Thoughts?
