I'm with you Product, I don't see the FC's as too big a deal especially if the game has smooth online like MK. Plus with Wii Speak, this is sounding like a great time.
Where'd you get this idea that sony would do something like this? Those jokers at Sony customer service made me pay for shipping of my broken ps2.
Nintendo not the same?
"I've gotten comfortable with the fact that the Nintendo of today is not the same company I was once enamored with as a child, and that's ok with me -- they're still changing the face of gaming, whether it appeals to my demographic or not."
wtf? But yeah I saw this story posted on another website few days ago. nintendo's customer service is second to none.
Actually Product I saw how you outlined the whole show, forgot to thank you for that. I usually read the podcast summaries as sometimes I don't feel like listening to some of the more nonsensical aspects of Matt and Bozon's show.
I'm really interested in what Retro has cooked up, especially after the magnificent Prime series.
Thanks. I actually read the comments before the article which is why I responded the way I did.
The only explanation I can give product is someone accidentally clicked on the disagree. That, or some d!ckhead just likes to disagree with logical thinking individuals.
As it stands the so called "Black Protagonist" is just as limited as the spectrum of blacks in hollywood; Gangsta talk, pist off at the world, bad ass. While this alone doesn't disturb me, the fact that this is the extent of the characters does. There is no spectrum, that is what needs to change. As long as this is the exclusive portrait of the BP we are limiting our potential. This goes for all minorities as well.
Free Radical comprised of former Rare people? If that's the case maybe Nintendo can pick them up..but on second thought, why would Nintendo be bothered with cleaning up a company who went belly up with a HD flop?
Some folks can try to go the merry-go-round route if they want, but sales are sales. You can't argue with numbers. And the numbers favor the Wii.
nice logic in that article..I mean why would a Wii 2 work its not like the successor the the NES was any good. And after the first PS who wanted to by the 2nd one?
Honestly another dumb ass article.
Said before April 2008 that MK would outsell GTA4 combined, they woulda been laughed outta existence. The thing that is amazing is that almost every Nintendo exclusive outsold the most overhyped game since halo 3.
Brawl is great, I love it. It is a fast paced chess match. Kart is the best console iteration since the 64 version. The most telling thing from this chart though, again, Nintendo's games on the list are exclusive. There are no exclusive game on either HD platform that...
Thing about this list is Wii exclusive single platform titles outsell hyped multiplatform titles. That is insane.
I agree with you no doubt. In fact I think the N64 had some of the best games ever. But what I meant by TRUE console, was that it had the best of everything. There was just so many classic games from first and third party and the quality ratio was unparalleled.
As far as I'm concerned the SNES was king. N64 was probably my favorite console, just because of OoT, Goldeneye, WaveRace, I mean Nintendo was really on top of their game, and they needed to be because third parties aban...
Is why the Wii kicks ass this gen. Not so much for this game itself (though it looks awesome), but the symbolic tones this game gives off. It is a throwback, it is something different than the norm, it is something the HD consoles would never be considered for. FPS and TPS, what else? That's a limited demographic. The SNES, the last TRUE console had every genre covered, all types of games, this is where I see the Wii resemble its predecessor.
Embody what the gaming industry used to be about. Very good read, and I wish them the best of luck. Can't wait to get my hands on this game.
Exactly..You are the man. Having a hard time finding a new avatar huh? I hope it wasn't because of me picking a Samus lol.
Should be reborn on the Wii next year, I agree. With M+ and an expanded call your shots, it should really be revolutionary if EA can deliver. TBH, I was actually contemplating a few ways they could approach the game, make some form of IR control from the qb to the receiver...I dunno I'm no game designer, but I feel a franchise like Madden is in desperate need of a overhaul, updated graphics and rosters is getting pretty redundant.
Tiger Woods though, 09 is probably the greatest...
Those games came at what point of the ps2's lifetime? The Wii is just over two yrs old and its already received Galaxy, Brawl, Prime 3, Kart, No more heroes; it's getting The Conduit, Madworld, DQX, MH3. Really why do people say "it will never get..." When in many cases it already has.
@Marquis: I'd go with the SNES as the greatest library ever to grace a console.
it begins huh? This holds more symbolic weight than anything else, I think. Sort of like DQX going to the Wii. Western 3rd parties were the ones left that were not jumping on the Wii bandwagon. EA being the largest western 3rd party may begin an avalanch of support.
It happened during the PS1 era, when everyone was jumping from the nintendo ship. Companies can only bleed so much money before they have to try a different route. As stubborn as many third parties have been and man...
