This immersive video game feature teaches the gamer the relationship between irl results and money in a way that makes them feel like they're actually wasting it.
"Nintendo always sucks so I don't even watch them anymore and to compare there conference with MS or Sony is just a slap in the face, they should stay in Japan and away from every conference."
Yeah, Nintendo - the console maker who has won 3 generations - sucks.
I could replicate the MS or Sony conference by looking up the top 10 pc games coming out then removing all of them that require insane hardware.
"Point being, just a taste will tide over the fans (i know for me it would), even if they decide to change the direction of the game the fans will still be happy for the time being and it'll generate hype."
It took what, 5 years after super mario 128 demonstration for the sphere walking demo shown to appear in galaxy? Some things are better left unsaid.
"Goes to show who are creative thinkers and who are not."
Oh yeah! The vitality sensor would be great for monitoring heartbeat to determine when to put shocking jump moments in video games. Your heart is pounding...right then comes the enemies designed to make you hop. It'd be like a horror movie but without the obvious predictability to ruin the moment.
Or ddr with hard step charts appearing when you're exhausted, or able to adjust to your performance. ...
"oobob if you knew how much was hacked together code you would be very surprised."
I'm busy with my gf and will respond in full later, but my friend told me that the kickoff/extra point meter and controls in one of the madden's he worked was the modified golf meter and controls from one of the Tiger Woods releases ;)
The American operation shut down due to a pulled superman contract. Former employees (a large number suggesting this isn't frivilous) recently filed a lawsuit saying wages were withheld by moving resources to another developer, along with giving them the code they'd developed for a Rogue Squadron game on the wii. Whether it gets finished depends if Factor5 or the new devs they hocked it to decide to complete what the original developers accomplished.
Sadly, the lawsuit at least...
The only way to make this comparison is by ignoring the graphics optimization of any hardware included in the wii while being ignorant of how Nintendo does pixel shading. Opterons are server processors and overclockers (including myself) have found that those Opterons perform worse for games and graphics than the athlon64 cores they're based on, despite having double the onboard cache. The reason is that servers need good floating point calculations and so they optimize the Opterons for it,...
She did the same to my boy Wario and he shook the gold straight out her teeth. He won't let triflin' with some princess stop him from getting paid.
Ya'll find him lounging outside Gamestop, chillin' with the top down in his candy pink rizzide. He ain't cheap to roll with but I sent him the good word. Boy can be a handful but ya'll be entertained.
The most that ho gave me was them Hostess in her dresser.
Neither should your mom but she keeps sweatin' me 'bout dinner.
Arius - It's hilarious when they use Madworld to prove a point and inadvertently contradict what they say about other wii games. Wii graphics ruins games except the title done entirely in black and white and red? It's like Virtual Boy vomited on Mario Paint. To them cartoony graphics make a game unplayable but comic art is cool? That's like a direct admission that they're deciding whether a game looks good based on the art style and not actual image quality. God forbid they discover it r...
They did this for HOTD: Overkill the other day and I picked it up.
Madworld is fun for the 6 hours it lasts. The grind between bosses is what really brings it down but I enjoyed the plot enough for one playthrough. And the boss fights are pretty fun. Sadly the announcers are probably the most entertaining part of the game.
If this ended up being true Apple would have a sick advantage being familiar with those powerPC processors used in game systems. Wonder if it would end up meaning anything.
The saddest part is I can't remember any background music in a game this generation except for Galaxy, but the original Zelda, Punchout, and Mario midis still get stuck in my head.
The most fulfilling game I've ever played in terms of plot was Chrono Trigger for SNES. Chrono doesn't speak throughout the entire game (though he says 3 lines in one of the hidden endings which have nothing to do with the plot). What does more than anything for sucking people into this title is making choices in the game that end up changing bits and pieces of the world. This extends to choosing when to beat it in new game plus.
Seriously. The console manufacturers take most of the risk and developers sit around and cry about it.

(This site is very good for wii perspective btw, by far the best blogger I've read for understanding Nintendo's strategy.)

"IR pointer controls are faster, more accurate, and now more customizable than dual analog; they're as close as you can get to a mouse/keyboard setup. These aren't opinions or matters of personal preference -- they're simple statements of fact, like the PS3 being able to push better graphics than the Wii. Being quicker, having more accuracy, and being more customizable are BETTER things for game control.
(And that same magazine praised Metroid Prime 3's control scheme. Go fi...
"Complaints on Conduit's graphics are fair game."
I'd agree if people compared the controls of every ps3/360 FPS with The Conduit. Dual analog FPS is horrendous and it's not like we can't compare it with other schemes. The real annoying part is that these complaints are only focused on the wii. And even Epic released K + M for the ps3 version of UT3 as a tacit admission that controllers can't play a game this fast. I've yet to see reviews compare dual analog FPS con...
"..Maybe if money was free, and Sony's first party developers included the PC platform too. "
PC exclusives win FPS and MMORPG hands down. Quake Wars and any MMORPG you'd want. Civ IV is exclusive too.
Besides, when you say first party exclusives and cost, you just gave me an argument for Nintendo (the wii was cheaper originally than both hd consoles and if you factor in xbox live the difference is about the same for 360 and ps3). 600 dollars gets you a...
Some of these will be more well known, but I just got a wii and here is a fun game list:
Check out the Conduit (mentioned in there) for sure. I play PC FPS games and I'm obsessed.
No More Heroes is great and cheap with a sequel coming soon.
Obviously Mario Galaxy - no matter what type of game you like you owe this to yourself.
Wii Sports Resort is incredible. I hated the original for perspective and this game is great. To save time just c...
