Wii Thread 4.0, WEEUWEEUWEEUWEE!

seriously? You drink kool-aid with no sugar too?

Probably not, but he probably also doesn’t hold the graphical capabilities of an SD system to the same standards as an HD system like you seem to judging by this post, unless I’ve mistaken something here.

On the Wii, that is a pretty impressive use of technology. Same goes for The Last Story.

Ever played Half Life?

A lot of people who actually prefer to play FPS on the Wii aren’t playing the game for the graphics…If the game was played the exact same way as its HD brethren then yeah it’s pretty much a no brainer to play it on 360/PS3. However the controls push it over for plenty of people…myself included.

There’s actually been some direct feed footage of the game posted it up…I was looking at it last night but didn’t get around to posting it up.

The graphics of course look nowhere near as good as 360/PS3…but that’s pretty much stating the obvious no?

Dude, Goldeneye is some awesome shit. Loving the change to the Daniel Craig-era style of Bond.

I’m glad to hear that. I heard great things from the game and I look forward to it when I pick it up. WITH A GOLDENEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYYYYEEE!!!

Also GT also has an interview up with the voice actress behind Samus. Speaking of Other: M, when I listened in on IGN’s podcast they mentioned that Other M apparently flopped. They didn’t give exact numbers so I’m unsure if they mean flopped in general or ‘nintendo flop’…meaning it didn’t sell as well as they wanted it too but it still sold well in the scheme of games in the industry…sort of like Wii Music.

Edit:

Goldeneye doesn’t look bad at all in HD

The latest on The Last Story via Andriasang’s translation of Jump. It’s gonna have online play and characters can be made pretty.

“Using the game’s “Raid Lobby,” players can access a six player cooperative and competitive [online] play mode. The competitive play has players selecting their favorite character and facing off on the battle field. The cooperative play has all players team up to take on a powerful monster.”

“Change your equipment and weapon, and you’ll see visual changes to your character. You can also use a “paint” item to color your armor as you please.”

Don’t really care too much about the online thing, but I’m stoked about the painting.

The online for Last Story sound pretty awesome to me…Here’s to hoping it runs smoothly…especially since they have Nintendo backing them up.

God Eater, Super Mario Collection and Pokemon are still topping the charts. Golden Sun dropped to the edge of top 10 while both versions of Fallout New Vegas are doing pretty well. Why am I not surprised that Mario Kart Wii is in the top 20?

Hardware went PSP, PS3, DSi LL, DSi, Wii, Go, Lite, 360, and PS2. 2nd week that the Go isn’t last and it’s actually beating out the Lite this time.

IGN COD: Black Ops Wii Review:
Call of Duty: Black Ops Review - Wii Review at IGN

7.5 mostly were kinda upset some of the things that were omitted in comparison (Black Ops Arcade isn’t to be found and only one stage for zombies) to it’s HD counterparts but honestly…that’s to be expected. Has anyone here tried this out? I’ve only read impressions from Gaf.

On gamespot Wii Ops got a 9/10.

I also just watched the review for Sonic Colours over on IGN and I must say that it looks fantastic, can’t wait to get my Wii so I can get it :smiley:

The sonic hats and games came in Thursday and Friday. I gotta make sure I pay the rest of it off tomorrow. I am quite happy.

I just don’t see how Sonic at an Evil Carnival sounds good. Plus the game play I’ve seen of it makes it come off as really “meh” to me.

The easy way it sounds good is because 1. They actually made Super Sonic available to be played on all the stages…the first 3d Sonic game to finally do this. 2. There isn’t a werehog in sight. 3. You’re playing as just Sonic. 4. There’s actual platforming instead of just running at super speed over everything.

This game is probably Sega’s biggest step forward in redeeming the Sonic franchise on the 3D side. It might look ‘meh’ to you but a lot of the things they’re doing with this game are things peolple have been asking Sega to do for years.

Why is Super Sonic being playable in all stages a good thing? He’s not his own character. He’s an enhancement of Sonic which you have always had to earn. This ain’t a DBZ fighter. I don’t need 20 versions of the same character.

I don’t see how anyone who has ever seen good in a Sonic game can’t see the good in Colors.

It’s a good thing because it was a fun reward for actually collecting all the emeralds in the genesis games. For the last few years the emeralds were mostly tied to story related stuff and you only got to play as Super at the end. Running around the Genesis stages at an even more ludicrous speed and raping everything in your path was fun. It’s not really ‘20 versions’ of the same character it’s just an actual reward for actually taking the time to collect everything. If you don’t see the good in it that’s completely fine I’m not going to try to convince you otherwise but I’m curious…what was the last Sonic game you played?

Sonic Adventure DX. I haven’t had the urge to play any of the others because it seems like the same problems exist in every game but with a gimmick tied to it. And they add more and more characters the fans didn’t want and the series didn’t need.

And usually the biggest problem with the gimmick was that you were more or less forced play with it in the game…Colors wisps mostly aren’t really needed to just get through most of the stages and they’re more so used to find different paths through the stages to find the red rings. They are about on par with Mario’s powerups or the old school shields. I don’t blame you for not wanting to play the other ones…though the ones the really steer clear from are 2006, Shadow, and Black Knight. [media=youtube]3MWEHwvcnyM"[/media]

Glitches aside, 2006 is bad simply because Elise existed in it. She was literally the worst idea in an enormous, vast armada of bad ideas Sonic Team has come up with. She was worse than Shadow ripping off GTA. She was worse than Big the Cat, she was worse than Super Sonic being a story point. She was worse than the game she was featured in being glitched to hell. Matter of fact, the one thing good about Elise is that despite being that much of a failure…she still manages to be a better character than Sally Acorn. Not even ST made characters that bad. Of all the things I loved about the Sonic comic series, I absolutely loathed that character. She was such a bitch it was ridiculous.

Started Muramasa The Demon Blade last night. Really pretty game. Pretty fun too. Though I will say it should NOT be played with WiiMote + Nunchuck. The stick on the nunchuck is way too sensitive and you’ll constantly be jumping when you don’t want to. Play it on Classic Controller or a gamecube controller.
