"its not by how outdated it is, its how long it lasts. example: the PS2. "
Yes but the ps3 doesnt sell like the ps2. It might do a dreamcast or gamecube. While being good enough systems, it may not have the financial support to continue for ten years.
The ps2 had much more support than what the ps3 is getting.
"Ya I'm glad that Nintendo hasn't completely abounded the hardcore gamer. Now i have a reason to re-buy my wii controller. "
Thats funny because nintendo didnt make this game. Once again people thinking nintendo are responsible for 3rd party efforts.
The game does look good tho.
"Everyone's entitled to their own opinion.
In my opinion,RE5 has outdated controls for an Action game. "
I dunno i think having to stand and shoot brings a whole new level of strategy that u have to work out. Plus halo hasnt changed the way its played from halo 2 so whos to say thats not out dated. I mean u have a gun and u shoot things, how much can u really do with it...without getting overly complicated.
Plus if it was like every other sho...
"I happen to be an unfortunate that bought into the hype and own the little
useless console that couldn't."
Everyone has an opinion of what is good and bad, i find mario galaxy, metroid prime, wii sports, zelda, NMH, zach and wiki and many more very enjoyable. Regardless if u think its rehashing because every system relies on Ip's that have previously worked (final fantasy THIRTEEN for example, madden 92,93,94,95,96,97,98,99,01,02, 03,04,05,06,07,08,09...and tha...
".12 - what are you talking about??
Nintendo doesn't even have to try to make good games for the Wii, the average owner is happy with Wii sports and will maybe buy Wii-play just to get the controller. "
Like i said previously to which u didnt take notice - unless u have survey 45million people than ur assumptions do not mean they are fact.
"sure, they sell consoles...at a profit because they use old tech wrapped in a new case"

"Please, the Wii is a POS and you know it."
Thats funny, u must be a comedian. What u said is news to me.
"it is the prius of consoles, sure, it makes parents feel like they did something good for their children and it is great for rehab centers and old folks homes but at the end of the day is is still an underpowered, gimmick machine."
Sp uve met 45 million people and finisihed all the AAA titles on the wii to make this judgement&g...
"The Dreamcast was hardly competition. Despite it's amazing games"
So true, the dreamcast had a modem, great graphics, great controller....really good games.......yet it failed...weird.
" WTF not this again
hello i didn't remember sega selling a predecessor with 150 million world wide. "
While that maybe true in theory, however i dont think the 80's and 90's had such a broad "audience" as it does today. Otherwise the NES would be the best selling machine of all time (with like a 90% market share...maybe more).
"The wii is not the new ps2 since it doesn't have good games. The ps2 has the best games last generation, and this generation the ps3 has the best games in 08 and 09"
Well that really does depend on each person's taste in games. Not everybody is into FPS's or RTS's
"Sorry SEGA fans, but SEGA sucked at marketing and driving a product"
I dunno the mega drive always seemed to compete with the super nes. (when sega was up there). They kinda went off track tho after the 32x and sega cd.....*shivers*
" you know he is just frustrated
because the Wii is such a lame console and his girlfriend was making fun of him because he didn't get a man's console...or a PC. :P"
Man your so cool...you are "the man"
"now that made me laugh...
but if its the only way for ppl with a wii only home can play it then so be it "
Did it ever occur to u that maybe some people own both the wii and ps3>>? ..and or 360
"These controls were perfectly fine four years ago when Resident 4 came out for the Gamecube but this is next gen. While I was playing the demo I kept asking myself these questions"
I thought controls werent a basis for what is to be considered "next gen" (shouldnt it be called "current gen" anyway>>>?). I thought it was just about the graphics upgrade.... Very hypocritical to the many people complainig about controls.
Wel...
"
Seriously though, unless the game is named Metal Gear Solid or Uncharted, if you dont have multiplayer, there is no way i will play the game. RE5 look like it will have a decent SP but lacks MP component. I dont see any replay value."
Well i dunno resi 4 had lots of reply value. I had to finish it 3 times before i got all my guns to their max, and unilimited rocket launcher. BUt it was fun going back thru with better weapons each time, it was alomst like havin...
"FPS games were "on the map" LONG before the Halo series arrived.
This writer is a fool and doesn't know much about the history of the industry. "
i think every generation has had revolutionary FPS's...all of them have improved with each gen making each one better and better.
I think all of the previous generation inovators have had really good imput to get FPS where they are today. From wolfenstein, doom, dark forces, duke nukem 3d (hehe),...
"if there's no doom there's no halo. "
Doom certainly was a classic. Doom 3 sucked tho. But the original doom really did make wolenstein look like play school.
Everybody who had a computer had doom. Everybody played.
"Halo didn't revolutionize FPS games, it just made the world realize that FPS games could work on consoles and revolutionize that"
I did like the way u could constantly get different two gun combos (one for each hand), and how u could re generate your energy instead of looking for "health packs", oo oh and i loved being able to tackle ghosts head on and steal it from the enemy. That was pretty cool. And i thought the reply camera thing in halo 3 was a good ...
"FF7 to me is one of the greatest games of all-time period"
Questionable. Its probably better than most recent final fantasy games for sure. Better than the super nes square enix games, hmmmm doubt it. Final fantasy 7 was big because of the cgi cut scenes at the time,.. but gameplay wise i think i prefer chrono trigger. I mean u can get like 10 different endings with that game depending on what u do.
"When it was announced that De Blob was a hit, not a single post from the fanboys like paraplex or whatever were seen. No they'd rather close their eyes to things like facts in order to fuel their fanboy hate for a console they care nothing about."
Absolutley true. U can almost see the tumble weeds when i good review is posted.
