Whenever I try to get into Madden I end up just getting disgusted by the game.

I just recently restarted my franchise. I enjoy the game but some still annoys the hell out of me. Like the LBs, and defensive players in general, that have the hands of Jerry Rice and will leap ten feet into the air to make an INT. Also how the CPU seems to recover fumbles, whether is their own or yours, at leat 75% of the time.

Wii U 'Has A Horrible, Slow CPU' Says Metro Last Light Dev

Wii U's tech specs aren't as impressive as initially thought and 4A Games won't be bringing Metro: Last Light to Nintendo's new console.

Nintendo’s Wii U is out in the US and with reports coming in that it is struggling in a number of areas, many are claiming its third party games aren’t quite up to the visual standard of their Xbox 360 and PS3 cousins.

That the Wii U struggles to render games (that run perfectly on the Xbox 360 and the PS3) is a worrying trend for Nintendo. In fact, some games currently scheduled for release on the 360, PS3 and PC won’t be heading to the Wii U at all because of the differences in processing power.

One of these titles will be 4 A Games’ Metro: Last Light. Chief technical officer, Oles Shishkovtsov, explains why Metro’s sequel won’t be appearing.

“[The] Wii U has a horrible, slow CPU,” said Shishkovtsov to NowGamer.

Even his colleage, Huw Beynon, confirmed there would not be a Wii U version of Metro: Last Light, and couldn't justify the effort required to bring a comparable version to the Wii U.

“We had an early look at it, we thought we could probably do it, but in terms of the impact we would make on the overall quality of the game – potentially to its detriment – we just figured it wasn’t worth pursuing at this time. It’s something we might return to. I really couldn’t make any promises, though.”

Despite Nintendo’s console offering Metro: Last Light new experiences to its players with it dual screens, when asked Benyon was adamant that the Wii U would ever seen Metro: Last Light when asked directly.

“We had an initial look at the Wii U, but given the size of the team and compared to where we were last time, just developing for the Playstation 3 is a significant addition.”

I haven't had a problem with PSN codes or PC keys. You might have to wait a minute or two for your payment to finish processing before you can access your code, but that's it.

Looking to get ride of the Kinect should I trade it in at Gamestop or sell the thing on ebay?

on ebay a used working Kinect accessory will sell for around $50-$60.

Starting the auction at .01 and ending at $55 will net you $48.15 (minus the paypal and ebay fee of $6.85) Assuming you break even on shipping.

Good luck!

IMO I would throw the games in to make it one transaction. You will net a little more if you do seperate.

Gamestop right now is giving $30 with powercord....so with power up card you could get $33. You talking a $22 difference or 40%.
