online can be great but I’m more concerned about the gameplay of the game…I’m still on the fence about it where some things look like it coud be cool and then others not so much.
and I gotta buy Nyxquest when I get a chance.

A look into the idea behind the escavating part of the game. And I’m pretty sure this game gets released this week.
Nintendo Minute 08.17.09
Nintendo actually has a nice lineup…nothing as big as Uncharted 2, Ratchet and Clank, or Modern Warefare 2 but still good none the less.
IGN AU Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter Updated Hands-on

long story short…they said no comment
Muramasa - Exclusive Locations Trailer
A little more than 2 weeks before this gets released…
You guys remember that soccer game that Ubisoft was showing off at E3 that was coming to the Wii? I think it just got a bit more interesting…
Academy of Champions: Soccer - GC2k9 Goal Trailer
If you liked Mario Strikers Charged…then you may want to keep an eye on this. Plus they randomly put in Altair, Sam Fisher, and a Rabbid in the game. If only Altair could shank the opposing teams goalie and then pray away as if nothing happened.
and here’s 3 short soccer shots
now all I want to see is a good chunk of gameplay and some hands-on impressions.
Wii Ware has another interesting game coming in the pipeline…It was a PC indie game called And Yet It Moves
vids of the pc version:
http://pc.ign.com/dor/objects/14266210/and-yet-it-moves/videos/andyetitmoves_gmp_topsy_turvy_040209.html
looks pretty cool.
Damn…that is pretty huge. SSBB DLC, please?
Chairhome didn’t make his usual post but Revenge of Shinobi did get released for VC this week…I think that was the only thing worthy really.
IGN Revenge of Shinobi review:
They took out the the cameos! No Batman, No Spiderman, No Godzilla
New Devil Kings for PS3 too:
this was already mentioned before in a dif thread but it looks like Wii Owners have to share this title with the PS3 owners. I never really played the Devil Kings series or heard much about it other than the fact that it’s dynasty warriorsish
GC 2009: Heavy Rain on Mature Games
He sort of gives the wii a backhanded compliment…not surprising a lot of devs have been doing that.
Tales of Monkey Island 2 set for Release

is it me…or was that double team move ass? Especially when he went up to hit the guy and dude in the robot was like ‘…>.>…<.< shrug’. Please clean this game up capcom.

Edit:
Muramasa - Walkthrough Part 1
wow…vanilla ware only has 13 people?
Muramasa - Walkthrough Part II
Muramasa - Walkthrough Part III
mostly gameplay we’ve already sene but with commentary.
To be fair on the Bomberman issue, I have loved the series since back when I got my first taste on the N64 but damn if they didn’t drop the Wiiware version too soon after they put out the retail.
Screens of Modern Warefare got put up

Of course it doesn’t look as good as it’s big brother so don’t go expecting the best thing ever.

Tatsunoko was also at GC but I’m sure most of the people who are interested in the game have seen better play in these vids…but it is nice to see that the game is alive and kicking
I do dig that bone crunching move that Polimar did to Chun at the end of the first vid…never seen that before.

2 different playthroughs to compare and show that the psych system is indeed working. IIRC in one of the earlier playthroughs the cop was acting like a bitch…this time not so much.
Really looking foward to Muramasa looks like a fun game.
Did any body pick up Phantom Brave? I"m wondering how good it is since Nintendo Power was the only one that’s reviewed it…and I don’t trust them lol.
IGN Red Steel 2 Hands-on
Conduit customizability has been confirmed. And Ubisoft says they got the game to run at 85 frames a second at times which I find to be crazy.
IGN Rabbids Go Home Hands-on
They’re still working on getting it to 60 frames but still so far so good. I’m wondering if that price that IGN has for this game is correct at 39.99.
IGN Shaun White Snowboarding World Stage Hands-on
if you liked the first then you’ll probably enjoy this one as well
Toshinden Screens:
http://media.wii.ign.com/media/142/14290522/imgs_1.html
…waaait a second…did this game just get a complete overhaul!? I’m pretty sure that most of us agreed that this game was quite ugly in the early stages.

that camera is horrible. Who thought that was a good idea? Doesn’t look as good right now we’ll see how it shapes up…
Wow, Toshinden is starting to look pretty damn slick now.
I wonder if the characters are completely new or reimagined versions of the old cast? The main character with the pimp looking sword looks badass.
Yeah, I’ll be buying the hell outta that Toshinden game.
Also…80fps on Red Steel 2?! Whaaaatttt?! :wow:

the only thing involving the wii right now at the moment is Samurai Warriors 3
GC 2009: Monster Hunter Tri Interview
contains some info I didn’t know myself about the game including the ecosystem of the game and the fact that the game was intended for the PS3 but they uh…yanked it and put it on the Wii lol. Those who own another system will be happy to know that the guy did say that PS3 and 360 monster hunter’s aren’t out of the question completely yet.
IGN Call of Duty 4 preview
fully customizable controls, no wii speak because they had to sacrifice that for 10 player online, almost everything it’s big brothers have online this version will have including the ranking and leveling up system. I still want to see some gameplay of course.

A Space Bounty Hunter in Texas:
Matt went to Retro but unfortunately they preptimed…and even if he so much as caught a glimpse or a hint of anything that Retro was working on he couldn’t tell anyone about it because they made him sign a paper before he went in. The way he described how it was in there is crazy though…I reeeeally want to know what it is that they’re working on. In any case this is an interesting article on Retro Studios beginning and what they went through making the first Metroid Prime. I loled at Miyamoto being Miyamoto.
Miyamoto: hmmm I don’t know…OH OH! Have samus take off her head and put on a head with bug eyes!
Retro:…huh!?
Miyamoto: =D JUST DO IT!
:lol:
I’m pretty pumped for Red Steel 2…it’s lookin good.
Anyone have any impressions on multiplayer swordfighting in Sports Resort? I’m unemployed at the moment so I haven’t been able to drop any money on games lately. Did kinda crappy in my 2nd interview for a position today so I’m keepin my fingers crossed…
Japan Numbers:
Dragon Quest IX jumps back up to first and MH3 is in the 4th spot…No 360 or Ps3 titles in the top 10 buuuut there is a ps2 title up there. Dsi and Wii are still tag teaming the top followed by PSP, 360, DS Lite, PS3 and then PS2. Well PS3 only dropped it’s price recently so I’m wondering how this will change next week…other wise 360 fan boys are going to have an awesome face moment.
Modern Warfare poll
It’s a poll to see what people think about it not having wii speak support and the option of ‘without wii speak I’m not getting it’ is beating everything. I’m wondering if Treyarch is seeing that.
Monster Hunter Tri facts:
I think it was mentioned before but they’re looking into differentiating the U.S. and EU games from the japanese a tiny bit. They’re looking into Wii Speak and they haven’t fully gotten a plan down on how they want to set up the service over here.
IGN Metroid Prime Trilogy review:
9.5 of course if you’ve played corruption and you’ve played the first 2 games then you should know what to expect from it. Retro did take the time to do some changes to some of the games…taking out some textures here and there and putting in better ones and making loading in corruption quicker.

Well some good stuff is coming out this week on the consoles…Wii has Cursed Mountain and Metroid Prime Trilogy. I’m currently wearing the shirt I got with the preorder for MPT…I dig it :tup: Someone came into work saying they’ve played Cursed Mountain and that it’s pretty good…didn’t ask him how he went about getting the game since it’s not out till tomorrow.
