I tend to agree. I personally think this doesn't bode well as companies have more incentive to make poor games but advertise them so grandma buys little billy that "cool" game he saw on tv. I think maybe 4 or 5 out of the 20 on that list deserve to be there.
The concept here is fascinating and if well executed looks to be a fantastic game. Only problem is that 12quads PC wont be the only one imploding. I predict the launch of this game may actually create a black hole and suck the earth into it.
Well the technology wont be quite as developed as that but the technology is feasible and is in fact being developed right now. I think Deus Ex more accurately depicts the future than anything else I have seen.
Wow, I agree with the author until the last part. It seems to me like hypocrisy. Blasting civilians is balls to the wall awesome but dear lord use an offensive acronym and we need PC stormtroopers on the double to stop such nonsense.
His reaction was blown way out of proportion especially considering the other controversies. Since when is mowing down civilians simply fun and a suggestive acronym unacceptable?
I sure had my fingers crossed for this game. It s nice to see that thopse of us who stuck by nintendo havent been abandoned entirely. I died a little on the inside when i heard about the pulse monitor.
This game kept another part of me from dying and my wii from going on ebay or something.
This game is truly great. It shows exactly what wii-ware can provide. Absolutely worth the price. I wish all wii-ware titles were as well done as this. The other developers should take notice to see how it should be done.
Truthfully the new play control feature seems nothing more then a stupid gimmick most of the time. I wish they would actually give us new games that utilize the new controls then simply refurbishing a game I dont care to play again. (Except maybe Duke Nukem 64 :) )
But this particular set is something i will probably pick up. Metroid Prime was a brilliant series. I never got to play 2 and getting all three with visual updates and wii controls for the other two sounds like a good deal. It actually makes this worth it.
I personally think number 3 is the most irritating. I always get a little annoyed when supposed "moral" decisions are based on shallow interpretations of morality. Like the "good" decision being just plain silly or naive.
Or simply forcing your character to have to help or not help a certain character. Why do I have to fight the super bad guy? I wanna ask him for an application :)
In my opinion Halo was vastly overrated. Not at all as exceptional as fan boys like to think it was. I dont have and never will get call of duty or most games people think is better so I dont particularly care of the comparison.
I think this game is going to be great. Just what the wii needs these days. PS3 may have greater graphics but I spent half as much money and still got plenty of fun out of my console.
Haha really funny article the pictures were fanatastic and clever.
One thing i noticed was that securing your helmet is actually a mistake. Soldiers dont do that they keep the straps open. The helemt is secured in non combat dress situations only. A helmet with the strap on can decapitate you if something explodes or hits the helmet near you. Strap on means head flies off with helemt strap off mean helmet flies off with head still attached :)
I hope this game does great. Even if I never actually play it. Mainly just to spite all the whiners and people bitching about this game. Hurray for free speech. Boo for people who want to censor and sanitize anything they dont feel comfortable with.
Realism in war games can only mean good things. Maybe then 12 years olds wont think war is pressing the a button faster then your opponent or pulling combos. War is hell.
Good to see games made for people with actual maturity past pre-pubescence
I find it od people are annoyed by complaints of the game that are thought through. This is how capitalism works people. Games cost money if the game isnt worth the money or doesn't do what people want it wont sell. Consumers have the right to dictate what goes into their products especially if they pay for them when they could spend the money elsewhere. We may not be the owners of the license or involved directly in its creation but game developers would be homeless without our money.
It may be a fun game but it isnt resident evil if it doesnt actually follow the survival horror genre. If i wanted merely a fun game instead of a resident evil game their are many alternatives unless you have unlimited income.
It is absolutely beautifal to see that those of us loyal to nintendo didnt get a little kiddies console after all. Many loads of crap but gems like this make me glad i have the wii. Cant wait to get it. At least now our patience and waiting is paying off.
