The Wii U will support in-game voice chat, but you’ll be forgiven if you’re not sure exactly how that will work. Nintendo hasn’t shown an official headset for the Wii U and the Wii U’s Pro Controller—the one that looks a lot like an Xbox 360 controller—doesn’t even have a port to connect one. So…
The crafty heroine of Assassin’s Creed on Vita can blend in with slaves or attack people with a dart-shooting umbrella.
The image here pretty much sums up what I remember of the horror movies I watched as a kid. Those Nightmare on Elm Streets and Friday the 13ths that me and my friends would rent on Halloween, some schlock for boys who would enjoy the tawdry thrills of watching dumb teenagers get kiled by some…

I asked the Activision guy who was playing Call of Duty: Black Ops II at the Nintendo World Store to roleplay with me for a moment. He’d be the gamer. I’d be the person coming into the living room saying I needed the TV. This is how I discovered my new favorite Wii U stat.…
