I think that Zack and Wiki is a great title. But no one outside of the relatively small group of internet game news followers knows about it? The game wasn't advertised. How can any company expect to sell anything if they don't advertise it? Then Wii owners get stigmatized as non-supportive of good games. I personally believe that if every Wii owner knew about this game and how challenging and fun it is, it would have sold over a million by now. So A-list game or not, these companies need to ...
I finished all 120 stars the other day, and am now on a Luigi game. (Luigi is a little faster, jumps a little farther and higher, but is very slippery.) On a couple of the levels I had to go back to my Mario game and check to make sure they were the same. That's how much fun and fresh the replay value is for me this second time through so far. IMO, if you have a Wii, you should make it a point to get this game.
It couldn't possibly be that 3rd party games haven't sold well on the Wii so far because the majority of them have been poorly made and depthless, or secondary titles in order to make a quick buck could it? No way that the fact that they haven't been marketing them or advertising them much at all could have anything to do with it right? </sarcasm> :p
Here's the way I see it. Since it only takes about 300-400k or less in game sales for profit to be made on a Wii game, and ...
First it was 720p that was "True HD". Then it was 1080i being hailed as such. Lately, people go on and on about how only 1080p is "True/Full HD". Lo and behold, here we go again. People who bought into one of the current forms are upset or feel cheated, and the mainstream/common man sits back and waits for all of the BS to end. Can we all stop with the petty HD arrogance now? With a product coming out that is 4 times more defined than what we currently have, no one should ...
The camera is probably the best so far in 3D gaming for your info. There is one situation where it fails you and that is if you are underwater, in a corner and there is a large object in the forefront. All you can see is your shadow then. It is frustrating, and does imo keep this game from being a perfect 10, but it is a very rare occurrence. Name another time that the camera isn't completely awesome, let alone a bad one. There's never been a game of this scale with this much fully 3D surface...
Why all the hate on Wii graphics capability when it is better than the original Xbox that everyone enjoyed and still enjoys Halo 2 on? Just last year Halo 2 graphics weren't garbage, they were great, remember? :P
I think that the truth is, that if Nintendo gets their act together with their online system, creates a solid FPS for it that has nothing to do with Mario, Zelda or World War II, but with controls like MOH: Heroes 2, then any gamer who likes FPS's would greatly enjoy i...
It is Microsoft who should be giving them attention with disciplinary action. Not the people being abused. And as for the idea of "They should just keep quiet about it" attitude, I agree that if they don't bring attention to their homosexuality, then they won't be abused, but it doesn't make it fair. I completely understand why they do stuff like this gay player did. I'll go the Yogi Berra route and say, It wouldn't be a problem if there wasn't a problem. Know what I mean?
Microsoft is doing well to ban accounts for racism/bigotry/etc. People have to go through the trouble of creating new accounts in order to play again. But if it is truly kids or young adults living with their parents that are the big problem regarding this issue then a simple voice recording or even a copy of the complaint against the player sent by mail to the person who's name is on the credit card paying for the account, (with a somewhat gentle, reprimand sort of letter attached) would end...
I've got nothing against Sony, or the PS3, but their irreverent overzealous fans force a negative regarding the console in my mind by being incorrigible, belligerent and hateful in every thread they possibly can on this site. If it is their aim to "preach the good news" about the PS3, they may soon find that they are only preaching to themselves because everyone else will leave for more BS free pastures. And if that is the case, then they all might as well just stay on whatever PS3 ...
I don't believe you. I believe you when you infer that you don't particularly care for this game. But I don't believe you that you played it from start to finish and found it easy, unless you just called it quits after 60 stars. If the latter is the case, then you are missing out my friend. You should revisit the game and have some more enjoyment. :)
SMG is easy? Maybe half of it is easy, but it's a rare person it seems that doesn't appreciate the gradual increase in difficulty. I decided when I bought this game that I would go the purist route and get all 119 stars before I beat it because I had a similar concern. After 80 or so I said screw that idea and went ahead and beat it. A week later I am somewhat stuck at 111 stars. The blue and red comet levels have many among them that are downright nasty, the green star levels are crazy, and ...
It's too bad that haters won't learn from this being brought into the forefront of conversation here and change. Some people here just plain get off on hating and belittling other people's choices. While some others see their hatred as the only way to combat that which stands in the way of their own choices being/remaining valid. (Competition).
The inherent problem of places like this though, is that without the zealotry and hate, there'd be less traffic on the site, less stori...
I didn't attack you. Your own participation here is an attack against your credibility. The story wasn't insulting. You were, with your pathetic attempt to belittle the Wii, and act as if you are too old or sophisticated for it; and that in a way that is nearly impossible to decipher due to your ridiculous spelling and sentence structure issues.
In yet another way you out yourself as an idiot, you call Pokemon a kiddie game in an attempt to call me a kid ( In classic "I k...
This would be a great idea if it weren't destined to become a biased, pop-game-miniculture thing. There are MAYBE 4 people here on this site that I would trust to give honest, unbiased reviews that are based on a lot of focused time spent on a game and a pure unemotional analysis. And among those 4, some of them I'd only want reviewing for certain systems since pre-existent hate has no place in reviews either. The last thing we need here at N4G is something to cause more hate and division amo...
Thank you for making of yourself a prime example. For everyone to take note, of the biased, childish, wanna-be-elitist B.S. flung out at the Wii like retarded monkeys throwing crap at the zoo.
"Look at me, I'm a growed-up now cuz I like bloody games fer merchure peoplezzzz. The Wii is teh suckzorz..."
Or, to quote you directly:
"teh wii will die out when all the people actualy can get one and relise its weak."
You...
"Why not sit down and take a real adventure"
lmao...
Is turning into an arrogant, fanboy, holier than thou b!tch-fest. Where are the articles about the the not so small list of garbage games for the other two consoles huh? Why do people feel like they have to talk crap about the Wii to make themselves feel better about their own choice of console? I swear, when a positive article on the Wii, or a Wii game actually makes it on here, it gets trashed by insecure trolls, and losers, (Not to mention it takes at least a half a day to get through such...
What you call substance or "Steak" someone else might call shallow, or "Fast food". There are alot of different people in this world. No one has a lock on what hardcore or substance is. Most of the self-proclaimed hardcore are only hardcore with their zealotry for proclaiming and defending their choices as the best and only valid things going. Just because one has a big mouth or tendency to speak out more on a subject, doesn't make their views more valid. In my book that's...
Anyone notice that Siegfried's voice is Kenshin Himura's from the Rurouni Kenshin dub? Pretty cool. I may have to actually rent this one. :D
I haven't gotten that far yet, but I doubt it. I think that perhaps those few levels will just be redone. When you get letters from the Princess, they are addressed to Mario, and the Toad comments on that which is kind of funny. But you get 20 1 up mushrooms instead of 5 for it. Also, I noticed a small part regarding this that was poorly done. When you rescue the Toads that rebuild their ship, they mention to Luigi that they got lost with Luigi (Again) instead of saying something else. It's u...
