I'm currently playing Sunshine right now and while a fun game it has its flaws... Like the camera which makes difficult stars even more excruciating to get and the not so tight controls. Graphically I wasn't that impress either, having played contemporary Sunshine games like Star Fox Adventures or Metroid Prime well, it doesn't look as good. And the Mario character model is made of what? like, 5 polygons? nahhhh I'm kidding, but is very low polygon. Obviously the water effect ...
I really don't get why so many stupid articles or blogs are written questioning the immense success of the Wii... yes, people are still blinded by fanboyism and don't want to see the huge influence the Wii was. Now, obviously those types of opinions are accepted in this site since it's run by ps3 fanboys...
Let me just say that the Wii has some of the most highest rated games this gen and also some of the most innovative. Something that the other consoles can&#...
I own the game for Wii, I prefer the Wii version only because it is one disc instead of 2 Gamecube discs. It's basically the same as the Gamecube version and is also one of the best looking Gamecube games ever, looks even good today I might add. So yeah, I would recommend it to survival horror fans even though the game is available only in Nintendo consoles.
LULZ!!! "I want to play Nintendo games but I don't want to play them on a Nintendo console" just hilarious...
"Imagine if sony and Nintendo merge, TOTALLY AWESOME!!!" not gonna happen in a trillion years.
"ps2 more powerful than Gamecube" really?, does the fanboyism transforms people's brains into excrement?
*sigh*
Silly trolls, Nintendo games are for Nintendo consoles
Honestly, I couldn't believe the Wii could do a game like Metroid Other M. That game,(for me) is the greatest achievement in graphics for the system. So, HVS saying that the Wii can do more is... believable.
LULZ!!!
@darkpower
Just say it... you want Other M on your ps3... facepalm...
Thank you
"They" are still talking about Other M because well, Metroid is one of the best franchises in video game history and because Samus wasn't really the person they knew.
That's how important Metroid and its protagonist Samus are to gamers. The bad thing though, is that they won't let it go...
Anyway, here's my review of the game I made back in September 2010 (You have to scroll down a little bit for the full review):

That's why you have a name like:
Xbox360PS3AndPC
LULZ!
Well, here's what I think:
Next generation will not be as innovative as this one... (at least in the Nintendo camp, you know, sony and ms didn't really put anything innovative this gen)because of, well, its history.
Por ejemplo: NES, great controls for the games at the time with the cross pad. Snes? just a NES with better graphics and controls.
N64 with its 3d graphics and versatile controls with force feedback. GC? just a N64 ...
I don't think normal mapping can hide low polygon count. That's the error the developers made on the original xbox: they applied normal mapping on the whole geometry of the polygon instead of just the surface in order to "hide" the low poly count. Other M applies it well and the polygon count is high, very high.
Well, the 3DS is more capable or easier to do shaders. On the Wii the developer had to do custom shaders, and we all know how developers treated the Wii... Still, I think the Wii is more powerful than the 3DS, I don't think a 3DS game can look as good as Metroid Other M. I don't think the 3DS can handle the polygon count of that game.
What worries me though, is that perhaps the developers will treat the 3DS like the original xbox. You know, a game filled with bump m...

"that does even make sense...."
clever retort... and grammar... so, you do actually agree with me LOL!!!
"Innovation can come from GAMES you know that right? Little Big Planet, Mirrors Edge,flower,portal,uncharted, half life. but ofcourse people like you need a gimmick to justify a purchase and company X is better then comapny Y"
Wait... what? those games are innovative? uncharted? really? hav...
@sashimi
Zelda Twilight Princess was a GC game. Skyward Sword is the first Zelda build from the ground up for Wii, so, I do see people buying the Wii only for Zelda... But it seems you don't understand the meaning of a Zelda game to the industry.
"Also Sony doesn't need new ideas in hardware...they have Games"
And if it didn't have games they would have ze grafixs! right? LOL! sony and microsoft need to be more inn...
@zootang
eh... no.
And how many halos and uncharteds are on this gen alone?
@mmfgaming
"Their line up on the Wii in 2011 is lackluster at best"
There's a little game called Zelda... With that alone people will buy a Wii.
"I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest to be the first one to pull the trigger on the next generation of consoles"
I think it's going to be microsoft.
"With the advent of the Kinect and PlayStation Move, Nintendo is r...
"they're too kiddie-like (games) and even their "hardcore" titles lacks blood and gore. I mean..."
This is what's wrong with kids today... "hardcorez gamez needz ze bloodz and ze gorez!!!"
You wanna play a real hardcore game? play Fire Emblem.
Wanna play a real mature game play Silent Hill Shattered Memories.
Both on Wii.
Happy Day of The Innocent!!! Epic Mickey on PS3 is a joke. Not going to happen.
I actually don't agree with IGN Australia too often, but they seem to realize that the Wii had the best exclusives this year, good for them. And next year with Zelda and Last Story alone is going to be fantastic.
Great!
