Everyone take note, to products last post. That is how you break shi* down. I've nothing to add except "I agree" and also Wave Race was not only better than jet moto by a country mile, but one of the best games of that gen.
Nintendo gets criticized for releasing Mario, Zelda, and Metroid. And also gets criticized for not releasing sequels to Mario, Zelda, and Metroid? Gimme a break dude. Yet lets see what we have this gen for HD consoles, MGS4, GTA4, GT5, RE5, and lets not even mention Final Fantasy. If your gonna pick a gripe with the Wii, and single out the Wii do it with something that can't also be said of the console of your choice as well. As for sony doing something new, haven't they used the same control...
I'm not too sure about that statement of Wii being the "Wii'd" (bad joke?) of the gaming industry is true. I'm sure there are some cases of that but I don't see the same ppl playing Wii sports with fam and friends, looking forward to Gears 2.
For some Wii is their main console and then they use PC's to fill in a void not yet filled by the Wii. Before Wii was released both Sony and MS pushed Wii as a great secondary console, because it wasn't seen as a threat to their...
I just have to point out that this sentence you wrote is an oxy-moron:"It has succeeded in expanding the market to bring in casuals. But I fear it has done juast as much damage to gaming."
No way is getting making games more accessible to the masses a threat to gaming. That is what ps2's aim was also.
I wouldn't blame nintendo for games being made easy, this gen many big games can be completed in 6-8hrs upon first play through (Gears, MGS4 I'm looking a...
Your post is a joke, man sorry. "Third place in my eyes" I guess your eyes must be closed. We are going back to E3 2008? What about the October conference 2008? Wii Sports is a great game, but it is by no means the ONLY game Wii has, and neither is Wii music, I understand you are trying to make a ridiculous point so you just use two games out of the whole Wii library to do so. Let me add another one for you so you don't have to "Cooking Mama". But don't also forget MP3, Ga...
Wii's not even 2 yrs old yet and its the market leader. I hope we see an article on "How the PS3 failed" or how the "360 failed" But we probably won't and before long this forum will be flooded with fanboys to agree with this non-sensical article. Unbelievable
I'm one of the many.
Even with the shaky, low quality video, the game looks good to me. If reviews are favorable I will be picking this up. I think people need to quit talking about Wii when they've never played it. It is clearly superior from the control standpoint. It just is.
I wonder what the discrepancy is between Wii and PS360 graphics wise, would it be like ps1 to n64? Or DS to psp? I don't think the graphics gap is as substantial as ppl make it out to be.
This is obvious marketing fluff. The whole selling point of RE5 at this point, as well as many HD games is the visuals. Because lets be honest if we strip off the HD paint RE5 begins to look identical to RE4 in terms of gameplay is concerned. Even the question asked was pretty much "what seperates RE4 from RE5" and the answer was "graphics" I loved RE4 but the whole problem I had with much of this gen is how deja vu it feels. I'm sure the game will be good, and Capcom can ...
This is really pathetic. Kind of funny in a way, only because its so ridiculous. But I must say that it's not just PS3 fanboys the 360 fanboys are equally pathetic for doing similar things to LBP's metacritic score. Come one ppl, its time to grow up. Is it really that serious?
1) I don't know how someone can think they ruined MK with their latest edition, I think its great, every bit as good as the 64 version and in some ways bests it, while in others it doesn't. Battlemode definitely took a step back in my opinion, but I think the overall game is waaay better than double dash.
2) I think it rather narrow minded to believe the mario zelda and metroid are the only "core" games Nintendo is capable of making. I loved Prime 3, Loved Galaxy, and...
Only one company can dominate over the other and it looks like its Nintendo dominating..as usual. Nintendo has 23 out of the top 30..Yeah that's definitely an equal sharing of the pie. No wonder they only wanted to mention the top 10.
The market leader usually has the lowest attach rate at the end of a generation? save for the nes, perhaps.
First off this argument of attach rates is so lame. It holds hardly any real merit or weight. I mean I never heard this argument of attach rate during the PS2 era. And didn't gamecube have the highest AR that gen? And if I'm also not mistaken, the PS2 had the lowest AR last gen. But I will say some of the comments are entertaining.
Its very unfortunate to read some of the lamest comments I've ever read and see multiple agrees. So I get the game now though, if you speak with a negative tone about Wii or one of the greatest game developers of all time (Miyamoto)fanboys eat it up, how amusing.
I'd be curious to know some of these individuals' age, because if you think all Miyamoto has done for the games industry is Mario and Zelda, you are pretty narrow in your perspective. But anyway, as for what Miyamoto ...
Is pretty irrelevant if you ask me. So pretty much this author is going to tell me why a product that's been selling out throughout the year is going to continue to sell out during the holiday season? Yeah great read.
But I wouldn't even waste my time talking to a person with 2 bubbles..I guess we now know how he got himself into a situation where he can only post twice..that's hilarious.
Its very difficult, and I love it. I might be off topic but I think megaman 9 illustrated what Wii has done or is doing to our industry. graphics can only innovate for so long until they plateau.
As usual Nintendo destroys the competition. When you look at Wii sales, and then read the sony & m$ fanboys whine and flame each other over measly numbers its pretty pathetic looking at the bottom from the top. Wasn't some moron predicting 360 to outsell Wii this holiday? LoL Keep the HD console b!tching going on boys, just remember when you say "360 won the month" or "PS3 sold more so far in 2008" You're still talking about becoming the first loser.
My favorite year for gaming. I was loving rogue squadron and Ocarina of Time, and MGS. As usual though OoT comes out at the #1 spot, which isn't surprising and expected. Pretty much any list that didn't place that game as #1 for 1998 would be viewed as a failure.
