Is it just me, or does Disaster sound mini-gameified?

Taken from the game's German website: http://translate.google.com/translate?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nintendo.de%2FNOE%2Fde_DE%2Fgames%2Fwii%2Fdisaster_day_of_crisis_9381.html&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&sl=de&tl=en

With the unique possibilities of the Wii remote and Nunchuk escape the forces of nature, defuse bombs, and much more.

Set the Wii remote and Nunchuk in different ways, in order to master your environment, citizens to save and to eliminate enemies.

---

After the game was reportedly stopped in development and then started all over from scratch due to poor quality, I think everyone should step back a little with the hype and consider the very real possibility that this game isn't going to be the awesome, core title everyone's been waiting for.

If going through scenarios where you play as superman on a day-to-day basis sounds like mini games, maybe you're just not cut out to be a super hero.

The Justice League will not keep in touch.

I think there will be some Mini-game type sequences but won't be "Mini-gameifited" like you said

Its an action game, how do minigame up an action game, it will play just like your RE, MGS etc. You will probaly have sequences like RE where you have to do some minigame like thing, like one of those new screens it shows him running from an oncoming flood of what, and you see icons for the wiimote and nunchuk. You probaly do a running motion in that sequence, its just an action sequence.

Metal Gear Solid?

Yes. A collage of little stealth puzzles and gimmicky gameplay (Otacon explains new commands every 10 minutes! :lol: ), never giving you large challenges with total freedom to use your resources as you wish. I think it's the right thing for Disaster to follow this model.

it should work out or at least I would imagine it would.

I just expected the game to be more linear so to say. Like.....

disaster happens

play through some pre-set paths (caused by the destruction of the disaster)

save people

play though some pre-set paths

diaster happens

etc.

This should be fun though...

There's only so many of them...lets take a guess.

Volcano (already in)

Flood/Tital Wave (already in)

Hurricane (?)

Tornado (?)

Earthquake (I think it's partially been confirmed?)

Meteor/Asteroid (dought it, usually a global killer)

Nuclear Bomb (man made obviously) (confirmed, terrorists at least have one)

----I don't know of any other ones besides man made, and those could go on for ever

meteors and asteroids hit Earth all the time. they're just tiny and essentially harmless (unless you're directly hit). A big one would be bad...

meteors do come within the atmosphere, but if there was a meteor shower (of decent sized objects) it could be very disasterous. An asteroid, yes...would be very distructive
