The First 15 Minutes of Batman: Arkham Origins (Wii U)
FFirst15Copied from MobyGames: Batman: Arkham Origins is a prequel to Batman: Arkham Asylum and is set about one year after Bruce Wayne became Batman. The main villain is the drug lord Black Mask who assigns eight powerful villains to assassinate Batman once and for all. It is long before Arkham City was established and therefore Batman can explore the whole city. The basic gameplay is unchanged to Arkham City. Batman still slides through the open city and visits more linear locations in plot missions. The fights use the series' trademark freeflow system. An important part of these fights is to react to the enemies. When said enemies have firearms, melee fights are out of the question and Batman has to use stealth. Besides fighting even more enemies, there are side quests to solve, like stopping the sniper Deadbeat or solving the Enigma puzzles. The crime scene investigations with detective view were expanded and involve short videos which can be searched for clues. -

The First 15 Minutes of Adventures of Pip (Wii U)
FFirst15Copied from MobyGames: Adventures of Pip revitalizes the classic side-scrolling action platform genre. Pip -- the ultimate digital underdog – is a lowly single pixel in a 32-bit world who proves that you can’t judge a hero by the fidelity of his shaders. During the game, Pip gains the ability to evolve and grow by absorbing pixels from his fallen foes. Those same pixels can then be used to blast through environment puzzles and enemies, devolving Pip back to a single pixel. Players will explore five stylized worlds and experience up to 10 hours of epic adventure saving Pip’s village from the evil Queen DeRezzia. Inspired by classic platformers, Adventures of Pip basks in a world where players can defeat a huge 32-bit boss as a single pixel or even as an 8-bit character. With three different forms, evolve and devolve Pip to solve puzzles and defeat enemies; each with their own weakness and strength that must be unraveled throughout the campaign.4 views
