beating Super Mario Bros 3 all the way through without warp whistles is pretty satisfying

Anyone else keeping up with The Wolf Among Us and The Walking Dead: Season Two? Easily the most interesting/exciting/important things going on in the gaming world right, as far as I'm concerned.

Can't wait!!! Not sure if this is just with Amazon but you get a free game download too. I think I'm getting Windwalker HD.

My plan is to blow through them once every episode is available.

Gamestop had a deal where basically we traded in Pikmin 3, Super Mario Wii U, and Wii U party we get Mario Kart for free. He beat pikimin, we beat mario, and the party game wasn't as fun as the one on the wii.

i, too, am waiting for all the content to be available. i loved the first "season" of twd, and am excited to play s2, but don't want to do the short installments thing. i'll probably wait for the disc version, even, as i did with s1.
ah, copperplate, a font for the truly modern man.

Cool. I hold on to all my games now. I've traded in too many games and systems over the years to regret it later. :D

Just beat the new Wolfenstein. My favorite game of the "next-gen" era so far. Surprisingly really good.

Wow, you guys have a lot more patience than I do. Also, anyone who likes TWD should really give TWAU a shot.

I bought the season pass for TWD Season 2 when the first came out and kind of forgot about it until the third installment came out. At the point I decided I would just wait. Since TWAU is a new series I consciously decided to wait to see how it all panned out. Save them for a rainy day or when the wife is out of town.

I might like TWAU more than TWD.

I have had this thought as well. But ultimately I think they're pretty much neck-and-neck.

High praise.

I bought a Vita a few weeks ago and have been playing Uncharted: Golden Abyss. I'm still amazed I'm playing Uncharted on a portable device.

Played the demo at my local GameStop last night. I played 2-player with a teenage kid. He claimed to be a huge fan of the series. His first Mario Kart game was the Wii version.
