    This game has clearly the worst online ever ! A real joke, this is unreal ! Lag, lag and lag due to a prehistoric peer to peer system which implies best connections (japanese) hosting ! I just can't play a single match without getting issues, though I have an excellent fiber connection...see -> my ping in Japan is around 329 ms ! (less than 10 ms in France where I live) Ah ah ah !

So funny Nintendo to make us play in such pathetic conditions !

    We got many updates for this game but Nintendo still kids with his customers : no build for a local or European room which would be the strict minimum (after one year) so as to correct this aberration.

    Best option would be real servers, but it will never happens, why ? Because Nintendo just doesn't care !!! 10 billions of cash flow and they are incapable of proposing servers. A quite stingy firm, isn't it ?

    So, on my side, next time I won't care about NX...(as a Nintendo fan).

    Anyway, the online of Splatoon is the stupidest and the most frustrating thing I have ever seen.

    Tendo must wake up asap !

    The most addicting game I've played in my life. It is cool, maybe a little bit repetitive at times, but its gameplay it's gorgeous. It's a pitty you can only play it with the gamepad.

    I already did a review on Splatoon back in February 16 2016, but because the game is still evolving and already purchase the amiibo. I feel like is worth a revisiting. Is it really worth that 9/10 i gave it in my older review?, let's find out.

    I already did a review on Splatoon back in February 16 2016, but because the game is still evolving and already purchase the amiibo. I feel like is worth a revisiting. Is it really worth that 9/10 i gave it in my older review?, let's find out.

    STORY: In Splatoon we get a very simple story. The Octarians (the rivals of the Inklings) have stolen the energie source of Inkcopolis...get it back!.

    P.S: This is only if you play story mode.

    PRESENTATION: Splatoon just SCREAMS Japan. And the art style definitely reflects that having some flashy colors and models that really contrast the world that the game provides.

    Performance wise Splatoon is excellent. The smooth 60 fps remain constant throughout 98% of the game, but to do that the game had to be downgraded to 720p, but the antialiasing cleans most of the rough edges.

    And then we have...of course...the SPECTACULAR soundtrack. What make this one stand out is that it's a combination of many different styles like Jpop, Rock and even Dubstep, which are very Japanese like if you could no doubt tell. Many of these songs are composed by this game's fictional group, the Squid Sisters, which are composed by Callie and Marie. Why do i tell you that?, well...they are freaking adorable!.

    GAMEPLAY: Splatoon is Nintendo's take on the third person shooter genre. The main innovation of the game is, of course, turning into a squid (with the ZL button). This mechanic provides a lot of depth to the game, as well as many possibilities of approaching situations, maybe you'll hide in a specific spot to SPLAT! someone to continue painting that area in peace or maybe you will spray paint on the walls to get to a hire area to place a sub weapon or simply paint from a higher place.

    We also have different weapons like a paint bucket, a paint-brush, a rapid-fire gun, a roller, a freakin mini-gun!, and a sniper-rifle. Each one having a specific use that i can't comment on because metacritic's 5000 letter count sucks!.

    So we have 6 different weapons with each one having different variations and slo packing a sub-weapon. This sub weapons are activated with the R trigger and they can range from a barrier, a paint bomb, a sticky paint bomb, grenades and my personal favorite, the paint-sprayer, since you can leave it in any place and while you are covering a certain area, the sprayer will be painting another in a 360° radio.

    Not only that, but each weapon also has a "SUPER WEAPON" that can be activated by pressing the stick, but to use it you need to fill a meter by covering area or by splatting other inklings. But when you manage to do so you can activate a Bazooka, a Torpedo, a bomb rush, a shield, a Kraken transformation, etc.

    Unfortunately the sub and SUPER! weapons are locked with the main one, so in order to get what you want it's completely random, but personally i never had any problem with it.

    Splatoon has to different ways to play. First is the single player, where you fight the evil ontarians, complete missions and fight extremely fun bosses that requiere stragetie and understanding of the mechanics of the game and with the Amiibo you can get even more missions and unlock mini games and gear or simply giving Carrie and Marie more songs and dance moves. But let's be honest, the online mode is the the main focus here, so let's see what modes we have:

    Turf War: You have to cover as much ground as you can possibly can in less than 3 minutes and the team who paints more of the stage wins. This will be the only mode that you will get access to for the first 10 levels, but i don't have any problems since it's very addictive.

    Splat Zones: Here you need to cover a specific area on the map and the team that remains the more in that area, while it's theirs, wins. This mode is extremely fun a chaotic when everyone is in the same place, struggling and fighting over the zone.

    Tower Control: This mode is the very definition of chaos. There's a tower in the middle of the stage and the team who drags the tower to the opposite team's place or the one who makes it the furthest wins

    Rainmaker: There's a statue of a Fish laying around the map and the team who carries it to the opposite team's base wins. One player does have to carry the Rainmaker and while it makes you slow, you can defend yourself with tornadoes of paint, but for the most part you depend on your teammates to protect you.

    Splatfest:. You pick a team of a specific theme like Dogs vs Cats or something. And then you play the other modes and the team that wins the more matches wins the competition. It's extremely fun since it depends on you to make your team win and when Callie and Marie announce the winner you are in the edge of your seat.

    There's some other stuff i forgot to mention like the way that perks are locked to your gear, but i don't find it necessary.

    Overall Splatoon is a fantastic and unique game and a definite must own for any Wii U owner and i still maintain that 9/10 i gave it last time.

    When it first came out I didn't jump into the hype train since that, for one thing, I was not able to play online due to my impossibility of using wi-fi (yes, some people don't have wi-fi) and because I simply thought it was a poor man's shooter with basically nothing new, except the insertion of ink instead of bullets. And no, I'm not a CoD player so I'm not comparing it to that atrocity:When it first came out I didn't jump into the hype train since that, for one thing, I was not able to play online due to my impossibility of using wi-fi (yes, some people don't have wi-fi) and because I simply thought it was a poor man's shooter with basically nothing new, except the insertion of ink instead of bullets. And no, I'm not a CoD player so I'm not comparing it to that atrocity: at least splatoon didn't die a year later.

    With that said, this game is just ok. Sorry but it is just that: ok. I played for about 2 days and I was starting to get bored to infinity already...which is sad because the game is actually pretty good and fun, but there are so many issues with it that I simply couldn't play past day 2.

    For one thing, the single player mode is bad: it's boring, it's completely detached to online mode (which makes sense) and overall rushed just to make those 40 euros (or 60 dollars in america apparently) worth your time. I immediately quitted and went online because hey, that's what this game's for right?

    And it's....just okay, again.

    Now the thing I liked about the game is how the controls are pretty well done - except the retard **** who thought that starting the game with motion control was a good idea: i got stuck for half an hour because I couldn't turn around!. Still I like the controls of it and it's fun to move around as a squid and to shoot your weapons. On that part I have no complains: it works, it's fun, and it's also original.

    But everything else just doesn't work and burns you out damn quick.

    For starters you can play in 2 (TWO) arenas every 4 hours (which I also had to research because I didn't play long enough to see the rotation)...and whoever came up with that was probably high or lobotomized, because it gets repetitive insanely fast. The maps are fine though, don't take me wrong, but 2 maps every 4 hours? Seriously why? Why not just simply allow more? I don't know but they clearly don't care since everyone seems fine with this. I don't.

    Secondly, matches last only 3 minutes and according to the wiki (yes because I couldn't manage to play these matches yet) there are about 3 types: Turf War (color the most of areas) Tower Control (King of the hill essentially) and Rain Maker (A sort of carry the flag). Now I don't have a clear idea of these types of matches because for 2 days straight I only had turf war and due to the bad idea of rotating every 4 hours it can easily becoming repetitive in less than 30 minutes.

    Plus, I wish the matches were longer: sometimes I'm having a lot of fun and having a blast until the timer is running out. Sad thing is, I wait more than 4-5 minutes for finding all players and this can be really annoying, especially when your best matches only last 3 minutes. Maybe in those 2 modes the timer is longer but again, I have no idea at all: in 2 days that I played, for about 3 hours each, I did not play any other mode but Turf War.

    And this simply means that this game is padded to no limit and because of that, I'm very sorry, I'm giving it a 6: for 40 bucks (still full price after a year?) I was expecting more, MUCH more, but considering you can play better fps games overall, and some of them even being free (("cough" TF2 "cough")), I just can't recommend this game fully.

    If you have friends then MAYBE I'll give it a pass, but alone this game gets boring really fast and considering the relatively high price point, I simply cannot recommend it when there are better games around.

    Although it is a very small game,,even it feels as an indie game rather than a AAA, this game is incredibly fun and ejoyable.

    The 4 vs 4 feels right for the size of the scenarios, and 3 minutes is right. If you want to have it more strategic, and more play time (usually), competitive mode becomes a must to play, where you find all the fun on this game. The variety of weapons is HUGE and still increasing over time, and the amount of scenarios finally reached a decent amount by the time I wrote this review. Definitely a game you must get if you own a WiiU, and I hope that this gets a sequel on WiiU (with an online mode that allow two persons in a same console to join a match in split-screen)

    Con's:
    -Every four hours you can only play TWO maps...FOUR if you have the ranked battles leading to the multiplayer being repetitive after like four matches.
    -Rollers are overpowered. I mean cmon. It's not fun to just watch as some person sits in ink all day and pops up to insta kill others.
    -Map design is....Ehhh for the most part. The Pirhana map is my least favorite as it just looks dull. What happened to all those creative things in the singleplayer levels? I understand it would be more of a challenge but Cmon! Do something more than just making us run around 24/7
    -Only one game mode? Why not more? I'm getting sick of playing TURF WAR over and over and over.
    -Character customization is limited(Except for the outfits)
    -I can't communicate with other players WHY? If you're trying to host competitive games then COOPERATION via voice chat is needed! And before you reply with: "Ooooh just use Skype or host a LAN party in your house!" Some people dont have Skype or can't host Lan parties.

    Splatoon is an overhyped, Bare bones game. Really only the singleplayer campaign is actually worth checking out. 5/10......You know you've failed your multiplayer game when the Doodle Jump clone you play in the lobby is more entertaining.

I almost always have a fun time while playing (some moments of rage...) The game is very unique both in style, gameplay and design. As you play around with your squid kid, you earn cash and experience that you buy gear with, that is basically regular clothes, but with extra bonuses.

    The game does not focus on getting kills a whole lot, but instead on inking turf with your weapons.

    I will write a list of things I like/dislike instead of rambling on and on like I was writing a book.

    + The music is great
    + Graphics and visuals are great
    + Gameplay is fun and addicting
    + Very unique and different weapons.
    + Very easy to play, but a bit harder to properly master, making it very fun.
    + Squid transformation gives so many approach options and is fun for sneaking around.
    + So many weapon types like:
    Shooters (basically small machineguns)
    Chargers (Basically chargeable snipers)
    Sloshers (Buckets you use to throw ink, wait what?)
    splatlings (Gatling guns)
    Brushes & Rollers (Melee esque weapons that should be self explainatory)
    + Many unique maps
    + Events called splatfests that happen once in a while
    + Fun singleplayer that teaches you a bit about the multiplayer
    + Really good boss designs

    Now come the negatives I found
    ¨- Map rotation is dumb (basically 2 maps per 2 hours)
    - Not having the ability to leave a lobby if you accidently click continue
    - Having to leave a lobby to switch weapons (not a problem in squad/private matches)
    - Needing the amiibo to get extra arcade minigames for waiting for a lobby.
    - Being punished if you lose connection during ranked (you lose rank points)
    - Having to listen to the squid sisters every time you start the game.

    there are more things, but I won`t write it in this review.
    Despite the negatives, this game gets a 9.6 from me, I really like it, it gets addicting if you keep winning, and trying to rank up in ranked mode can be really frustrating.

    There’s nothing else quite like it, nor the cathartic dopamine jolt to be had when you squid-skim up a paint-smeared quarter pipe, an Inkzooka at the ready, leap over the edge, take aim with your weapon, and reduce a startled opponent to goo.

    We waited a bit before giving a vote to Splatoon, but after three months, the game is full of new weapons, has some awesome new modes, and it's still really, really fun. It's a WiiU killer app, one of those games that are not only extremely original, but so well made they utterly deserve a big and supporting community. If you have a WiiU and want an atypical shooter, this is the game for you.
