Rayman Legends Impressions - Wii U Experience, LA

            Upon having played the Rayman Legends game demo at the Wii U experience in LA, I was impressed with the fluidity of the gameplay. The demo level itself was fast pace enough to keep a player on their toes. Though at the same time, it was well tested in the responsiveness and timing departments, and thus not made too fast either. The speed of the forward-scrolling camera was definitely what stood out to me the most; slightly faster than the typical modern platformer and challenging enough to miss and fall a couple times, but certainly not unbeatable. I suppose I took great note of this aspect because of the simple observation that 'challenge' seems to come in short supply these days.

The Wonderful 101 Impressions - Wii U Experience, LA

Out of all the games I played at the Wii U Experience, Platinum Games ‘The Wonderful 101’ was the most intriguing to me and was my first destination at the event. At the kiosk I was handed the controller and greeted with an intimidating control scheme screen. I can’t stand these kinds of things but it is understandable in a demo. The demo throws you right into the game and gets the battle rolling.
