Bethesda to announce 'really big' wii game this year

i hope its a rpg

I wonder if this is related to Bethesda's other recent announcement saying that they were making an FPS that was "Genre Breaking"kieranb2000

Morrowind Wii is ok for me. I hope it's original but a port of Morrowind it's ok.

Infact, Morrowind > Oblivion.

Rail games are meant for arcades, not home.

If only that were true...

But on-topic, this could be interesting.. I can't see it being anything big like Oblivion or FO3, but hopefully it'll be good. We'll just have to wait and see.

Maybe RE:4 wont be the only "M" rated Wii game worth buying after all...

If I'd put my money on something right now I'd say an Elder Scrolls game. I certainly wouldn't mind that, Oblivion was awesome.

I count only one, and that's RE4. I hated NMH, Madworld didn't look too great and was too short for its price, and WAW was an inferior port of a game that was alreadysecond-rate one onother consoles compared to PC, not to mention asub-standard paint job of a much better game. Most of the rest are either mediocre ports, bad games, or on-rails shooters. Manhunt 2 is the only other"M" gameI can think of that has a chance of being good, and even that received lower scores than the PS2 version and mediocre scores in general.

RPG game maybe..

In my opinion, Bethesda is a fairly generic developer. Morrowind is their one really great game. I actually kind of hope they port Morrowind to the Wii, because the PC version has atrocious controls.

I never figured out what was so good about Fallout 3... Just seems REALLY boring to me... Talking to all the npcs, doing little tasks, going slowly through the city getting attacked now and then...

The combat was hard I guess when it wasn't in turn-based mode... Just seemed like a long drawn out RPG... IDK what it was, but just didn't click for me... Didn't flow... Maybe it is the complexity and the open-ness that people like... but it just never clicked for me, its like... okay, i COULD talk to that guy or kill him, but what would be the point of either... it doesnt get me closer to the end... it just moves the ending slightly, a tiny bit...

The experience is not the same.And the problem is that it takes away possible development from games that are actually fleshed out and not just quick cash-ins, which is what on-rails shooters are to me. For instance, in the time it took Capcom to create two on-rails RE games, they could have used that time to create a new awesome RE like RE4. Or with Dead Space Extraction, I would have loved it to be like the original in gameplay. Instead, we get a half-baked version of it where you can't even control your movement. The whole point of it was the scares and atmosphereand that you never knew where the necromorphs would come from, which was one of the reasons that Isaac moved and turned so slowly. But now I doubt that it will retain its scares and atmosphere, as the player has no control over how they want to tackle the game.

Bethesda is a great developer. But their games are not my type of RPGs. Far too overwhelming for this old-school action gamer.

I hope it's a sequel to Call of Cthulu-Dark Corners of the Earth. that game was awesome and very very scary.

Also I'm a huge fan of the Cthulu mythos so if this turns out to be a new Call of Cthulu game I'm gonna orgasm.
