Netflix streaming available on Wii this spring

After years of rumors and an encouraging statement from Netflix's CEO, it appears to be official: the Nintendo Wii will gain the ability to stream content from Netflix's "Watch Instantly" selections. The New York Times reports that the companies will announce the deal later today. Nintendo president Reggie Fils-Aime called the addition of Netflix functionality "a continuation of an effort to bring more and more entertainment to consumers who interact with the Wii." The AP notes (via Engadget) that, like the PS3's implementation of the service, Netflix on Wii will require an "instant streaming disc." [Thanks, Ridgecity]

If Nintendo really wanted "more and more entertainment to consumers", why can't the Wii play DVDs?

The Wii is not the platform I would want Netflix on.

Gravity-defying indie platformer VVVVVV released

Posted by Joystiq Jan 11 2010 19:15 GMT in VVVVVV

thelettervsixtim.es

If Don't Look Back creator Terry Cavanagh's latest game is any indication, 2010 is already a great year for indie platformers. Taking its graphical inspiration from games of the Spectrum/C64 era, VVVVVV is based upon a gravity-flipping mechanic like the one in Metal Storm -- instead of jumping, the stranded hero of this game is able to reverse gravity at the touch of a button, immediately falling upward into the ceiling. Trying the game out cut dangerously into the time we intended to use telling you about it. And it's not like we need to say much anyway: Cavanagh has released a downloadable demo for both Mac and PC, as well as a browser-based Flash version on Kongregate. The full game costs $15. [Thanks, Erik]

Fun game, except the controls kinda suck (in the flash version anyways)

Yeah I think he slides a bit. I'm guessing that was intentional to add difficulty. There's a secret room called Purest Unobtanium that was nearly impossible for me to get to.

Half-Life 2 PC updated with Episode 2 tech, longs for Xbox 360 parity

Posted by Joystiq Jan 06 2010 03:45 GMT in PC Gaming News

joystiq.com

It's not often that console gamers get to brag to their PC gaming counterparts that their version of any given release is graphically superior; however, 2007's Xbox 360 release of Valve's Orange Box compilation included updated releases of both Half-Life 2 and Half-Life 2: Episode One - rebuilt with Episode Two's fancy new Source engine tech - while the PC releases sputtered on, sans engine enhancements and sans Achievements. Well, that didn't sit right in one Mr. Filip Victor's craw, who grabbed his handy coding toolbelt and started hammering away on the original 2004 game adding things like HDR High Dynamic Range lighting (see above screengrab from the comparison video, posted after the break), updated models and textures and, of course, 32 Steam Achievements (demo video here). While the legality of this project is certainly dubious, the requirement of both Half-Life 2 and Half-Life 2: Episode Two should assuage your piracy concerns. Now, whether or not that assuages Valve's possible concerns with this project remain to be seen. If you're interested you'd better find a download link in this forum thread, sooner than later. And, if you're keeping score, the Xbox 360 version still comes out on top with an updated version of Episode One, though Victor is apparently "working on the EP1 part now." Until that day of parity comes, enjoy the moment console gamers. [Via Rock, Paper, Shotgun]

Also don't buy it even for $5 because you can't play online without buying the $5 expansion pack. Now that is some *crag*ing horse shit.

They should do what amazon.com does. If an item goes on sale right after you buy it, you can request a refund of the difference. That way the people who don't know remain oblivious, but the people who get pissed off can be appeased. I think Apple does the same.

MadWorld director 'definitely' interested in doing a sequel

Posted by Joystiq Jan 12 2010 00:15 GMT in MadWorld

officialnintendomagazine.co.uk

Platinum Games' Shigenori Nishikawa, the director on MadWorld for the Wii, has told Official Nintendo Magazine that he wouldn't mind taking a second crack at the violent Wii game. "I think MadWorld was very well received and was acknowledged for its innovative graphical style and gameplay," Nishikawa said in Friday's upcoming issue. "We would definitely be interested in making a sequel in the future." Of course, you might have a tough time believing that Sega would also be on board. The company has said it would probably not be interested in more mature Wii games, which means Platinum Games would have to shop around for a new publisher first. Psst, we may know a publisher that isn't afraid to put out unique, mature games on the Wii.

I clearly remember reading an article on Kotaku about them saying they would never do a sequel on the Wii. I think it was because of crappy sales or something.

Home "streams"

Posted by Francis Jan 11 2010 06:37 GMT in Digibutter News

Your "home page" shows a stream of posts fed by many message boards. Now you can choose what you want to appear in that home stream. Edit your profile and select your "home stream".

The choices are:

All - See all posts made anywhere by anything
All Gaming - See all posts in any game or gaming news board.
All User Posts - See all posts made by any user (and any bot-posts with replies)
Subscriptions - See all posts from all the boards you have subscribed to.
Custom List - See posts from your own collection of boards.

The default option is "All User Posts" (which is how it's always been). If you are not logged in, you see "All".

Streams can be customized even further by hiding boards or users you don't want to see. When you "hide" a board or a user, those posts will not appear in your stream.

The different streams are in the Streams section in the upper right, so you can view them anytime. For example, if you want to check out the latest gaming news, click the gaming stream.

Hopefully the concept of "streams" of topics is easy to understand. Let me know what you think.

New Modern Warfare 2 server hack turns players into The Flash

Posted by Joystiq Jan 10 2010 18:00 GMT in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

- Like?

joystiq.com

Fun fact: We like to describe the pacing of a game's action on a scale composed of Brass-centric Americana music standards. For example, the speed of Modern Warfare 2 is moderate, yet fairly steady. In other words, it's normally set to "Spanish Flea," by Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass. Unfortunately, wily hackers have gotten their hands on the game once again, cranking that speed up a few dozen notches to Boots Randolph's "Yakety Sax." Check out the video after the jump to see the hyperspeed gunfighting in action. We managed to get into one of these hacked games during a Headquarters match last night on Xbox Live, and while it may look like fun, it feels a lot like you're speed skating the entire time. As you might imagine, that makes shooting near-impossible -- but it makes the ever-whimsical "Sax" all the more appropriate. [Via Xbox 360 Digest]

Oh god, I was in a bunch of these servers yesterday, it made domination impossible because we would slide off the positions, and of course shooting was impossible unless you had a shotgun (Which I was smart enough to equip before the game started) or if you knifed. and whatever I did I would always go to one of these.

Get to Know Your Tools

So you want to get good at playing the Infected in Left 4 Dead 2 eh? Well, you're going to have to start wtih the basics. Left 4 Dead 2 is somewhat unique in the fact that you have no real influence over what you will be playing outside of when you die and what else is in play. You can use these factors to your advantage to get a certain Infected, but we'll cover that later. First, let's cover the basic abilities, damage potentials, and the various other stats that your favorite undead crew has to offer you.

The Hunter

-250 Health
-Pounces onto a single surive to claw at them for5 damage per hit.
-Can do initial pounce damage up to 25 points based on distance.
-Knocks away Surivors around target being pounced on.
-Random chance to perform a back roll and be ready to pounce again when being knocked off a Survivor
-Makes a screeching noise when jumping or looking at a survivor while crouched. Makes a low growling sound while crouched. No sound while standing.
-Does a 6 damage claw attack, being beaten in melee only by the Charger and Tank.

The Boomer

-50 Health , the lowest of the regular Special Infected.
-Sprays a horde attracting puke on Surviors.
-Explodes when he dies. Sprays puke everywhere which can trigger a horde and knocks Survivors and Gas Cans back.
-Another horde cannot be summoned on the same player until the purple aura dissappears.
-2 damage claw attack.
-Common Infected summoned do 2 damage per attack.
-Constantly makes a gurgling noise. Makes a unique noise when spraying and clawing.

The Smoker

-250 Health
-Can "snipe" Survivors with his tongue from a significant distance to drag them until caught on an object or reaching the Smoker.
-Let's go over Survivor when tongue is broken by damage or the Survivor is melee'd.
-Survior that is being pulled as a short window of time in which they can shot at the Smoker before being rendered helpless.
-Does 3 damage while dragging, and 6 when the Survior is caught.
-Leaves a smoke cloud when killed which slightly impairs vision of Survivors. This cloud floats around him and can reveal his location if he is not hidden well.
-Does 2-3 damage claw attack.
-Constantly coughing. Makes a unique noise when sniping and clawing.

The Jockey

-325 Health
-Can ride a Survivor determining their direction. The Survivor can resist this by moving the opposite direction, but it does little more than slow the Jockey down.
-Can jump onto the Survivor's head from the ground, or fall onto it from above.
-Knocks Survivors around the target away when he latches on.
-Does 3 damage per hit while riding the Survivor.
-3 damage claw attack.
-If a Hunter pounces on his target it instantly refill's the Jockey's meter allowing him to strike again immediately
-Constantly laughs. Has a unique sound for riding and clawing.

The Charger

-600 Health, the highest of the regular Special infected.
-Can charge at a Survivor and pick them up to carry them with him. Stops when he reaches an obstacle and begins pounding the Survivor into the ground. Does not have to hit the target head on to pick them up. He can easily charge a Survivor off the side of a building or into water for instant death.
-The Charge sends any other nearby Survivors sprawling, sometimes off a ledge to their death.
-Does 10 damage to the Survivor when it hits a wall, and 15 with each pound.
-Has a 10 damage clawing attack, the highest besides the Tank.
-The only regular Special Infected who can not be stopped by melee bashing.
-Makes a constant mooing or mule like noise. Unique noise for charging and clawing.

The Spitter

-100 Health
-Can shot a glob of acid that spreads out and damage any Survivors that stand in it. The Infected version of a Molotov.
-If it hits a vertical surface it slides down until it hits a horizontal one.
-Damage is based upon how long a Survivor stands in it, ranging from 1 to 3 damage per second.
-When the Spitter dies it leaves a small acid spot where it stood.
-There is no distance limitation for the spit.
-The spit can destroy Gas Cans and cause them to catch fire. This is the only reliable way for Infected to destroy Gas Cans, making the Spitter the most valuable Infected in Scavenge.
-2 damage claw attack. (I need to confirm this.)
-Constanty making a hacking noise. Unique noise for spitting and clawing.

The Tank

*Tank strategy will be covered in a separate section from the other Special Infected, as his RAGE! meter limits his tactics to pure damage dealing.

-8000 Health
-Does 24 damage per hit.
-Can throw a projectile concrete slab. These can be shot down by Survivors.
-Can hit cars and other objects to fling them at Survivors. This can be DEVASTATING to a Survivor team if they are close together.
-Survivors can move faster than you at green health while shooting you.
-Survivors will ALWAYS try to burn your with Molotovs which will bring about a quick end for you. Watch out for this.
-If you do not have the Survivors in your sights or don't attack them, you will slowly lose control of the Tank. If you do not remedy this another player will take control of this. There is a brief pause when this happens when the Tank is completely vulnerable.

-Constanly growling and roaring. Causes the ground to shake. Has special music for his approach.

Oh hey stuff I already knew
