PS3/360 fans are mad at Nintendo for being 1st place overall. If they were in 3rd place ala PS3, all the talk would be "good the Wii sux anyways etc."

Wii has hardcore games, and all ways had. Its just that the "fad gamers" are split between PS3/360. Gears isn't a good game. I said it and it sold 5 million copies, same could be said for Oblivion and other fads.

Nintendo 1st party games sell, because the CONSUMER knows that they are getting a quality title regardless.

I don't think you have a clue what you are talking about. People aren't "mad" because Wii is in first. Clearly, you think sales makes the best console. In this case, it doesn't. I'm not even going to go into your other statements in your comment, because it just goes downhill from there.

i want the game because it looks so cool!
it looks as if god hand, sincity and kill bill had a baby

Graphics are extremely important in a game. When I play a game, I look for the entire experiment of the entire game package. Graphics definitely contributes to that. It doesn't have to be technically good, but as long as it builds more on the gaming experience, then it's great.

Also, I hate it when people say that motion control makes the game. No! It's how a game uses motion control that makes it good. It's that attitude that "motion control = great" that leaves us with stupid developers falling into the trap of dumping that in and calling it the holy grail of gaming. It's not. The best control scheme is that which allows the users to play the game intuitively in a way that the gamer can forget that he/she is actually controls.

The article is pretty good, don't care for all that sales garbage though.

I said this in another article, but this game can ONLY be on the Wii for the same reason No More Heroes can ONLY be on the Wii: the motion controls were VITAL to the game. If the game was on PS3 or 360, you would run around and press 2 buttons a lot. Not my idea of a good time.

The visuals actually are important in this game, but it's style over technicality. It's why people buy games like Okami or why people still buy Shin Megami Tensei games on the PS2: because the art style is just as nice to look at as HD visuals to those who appreciate it.

And i have gotten use to hd graphics, thats why i only buy party games for my wii.

Madworld was meant for Wii,I'm picking it up this weekend:)
I also dont understand that everything has to be about graphics, it's sure as hell nice and immersive but it doesnt add anything to the gameplay or funfactor of the game which in my mind is the core of a game.

"Another thing is that the game is black and white, why would you need HD graphics. Come on, 1080p for a game that doesn't even use color."

color palette doesn't have anything to do with resolution, IMO. what I mean is, no reason NOT to have a 1080p black-and-white game. have u played Dark Sector? the first intro level is black-and-white and that game is really QUITE beautiful.

also, I believe Bayonetta is the same dev? but I will NOT "just wait for Bayonetta" as u suggest. why? MadWorld has a cool, grown-up aesthetic (from what little I've seen); while Bayonetta is for little kiddies that are easily impressed by Japanese-style too-cool-for-school characters that are just laughably unrealistic.

I mean, c'mon people. she's wearing GLASSES while doing all those acrobatics and witch-craftery. COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY RIDICULOUS.
