Madworld to me just looks like a big mess.

I mean why does it have NO COLOR!?! Whenever I look at it, it just makes my eyes hurt, and the graphics are all boxy and what not.

What do you guys see in Madworld?

It's a styIistic choice,reminiscent of that of Sin City. I like the styIe,and the game looks like it'll be highly enjoyable.

The game looks, feels, sounds, and apperently plays great. Its Clover Studios we are talking about and hands-on have been great so far. Why should anyone not be excited ?

It's one of the few decent games coming out on the Wii. If you don't like it, you probably don't have much else to look forward to the first half of the year other than Punch Out with Wii graphics and maybe a new No More Heroes and Fatal Frame.

Why isn't everyone excited for MadWorld? One word: Platinum Games, that's a good reason why this game will be good.

Yeah if it's from them it should be damn good. And if you've read IGN's hands-on with it, you can tell it's not just a simple mindless beat'em up.

Not really, if you go to the boards for it, you'd see that the biggest draw for many is that its from Platinum (essentially Clover). I'm personally excited for several reasons. I adore the monochromatic color scheme, the black and white stylizations are reminiscent of Sin City and manga in general. Its the closest thing we will EVER get to God Hand 2. The dev team specifically researched a more American sense of humor to allow for an easier cultural bridge in humor, this ended up in Greg Proops and John DiMaggio doing play by play announcing. This decision is genius.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Shinji Mikami is taking part in development... meaning there's instant potential here.
The lack of colour won't be a problem if things are done well enough; this kind of style can work if done right.

The style of the game looks pretty sweet. I'll probably give Madworld a shot.

Cuz the lack of blood in wii games.

I dont have any expectations for this one... Hope im wrong but it looks like they only focus on the violence, story and graphics are rly poor.

i know that madworld is supposed to be black and white and really contrasty for artistic purposes but when every i look a screen shot of the game the color and contrast just makes everything blend together and its hard to see what is going on unless you look really closely

I agree with the TC. The graphics hurt my eyes whenever I look at them but the concept is a good idea. It has alot of potential. I guess Mad World isn't a game for everyone.

This is a game where you have a good concept but just to much. In other words FAIL. Reasons why this game will FAIL.

If you haven't noticed yet, wii's are mostly owned by kids, and young teens. They are pretty much the general population that own wii's with exception to the older teens and adults (which is just a sliver to the kids) This game is bloody and gory. They have chainsaws going into people's heads! Parents will not let their 13 year old son or 9 year old daughter get this game! Since the kids and young teens make up most of the people that own wii's, this game will not make revenue like mario kart or super mario galaxy. This game will go to 19.99 in about 2 weeks.

Oh and also, the black and white looks like crap. Add color! I am not excited, and hope that this game will go down in smoke and flame.

What's black and white and red all over?

Madworld!!!!!

Yeah I know bad joke but what ever at least some devlopers are starting to make Wii games that are'nt ports or remakes and actually making original games for the Wii Madworld is one of them and I would definetly want to rent The Conduit and House of the Dead Overkill as well.

Honestly, I find the game to be more disgusting than appealing. I'm all for a unique art style in a video game and everything, but you won't find me complaining with anyone that's not fond of the approach that's been taken with this game. I want to know who thought it was a great idea to create a game where the only thing that has color in the actual gameplay is blood. Sorry, but I'm just not going nuts about a style like that one. I respect PlatniumGames and all, but this is just not a game that I'm cool with playing. Maybe some of you guys find this to be something that will spark your Wii collection, but mine can definitely do without this. :|

It's has different art style, that's all.... and blood, guts, chainsaws, the ability to shove a road sign through peoples heads, over the top decapitations and dismemberments of body parts... that's all though.

Personally I think the black and white style and the emphasis on red blood is quite genious.

That statement is just wrong on so many levels.

Cool Trailer... videos make the game a lot easier to look at... :) And there is more than just black, white and red in the game... there is some yellows too :) lol

Well I guess it's kind o f hard to make an assumption of mad world just based on what you see with the graphics ... I mean, personally it's not my most anticipated game of the year but it looks interesting. It's just something I'm going to look into more when it's release date gets closer and see if it's the right title for me.
