Nights: One of the worst gameplay footage I ever seen...

[QUOTE="foxhound_fox"]Does anyone have any Saturn NiGHTS videos for comparison? I have never seen or played the Saturn version and am interested to see how it compares.Dencore

Here ya go.

I'm being dead honest here.....that is quite comparable to the Wii video.

I hope you mean gameplay :|

Ask Panzer.

Anyway see what I mean people complain about it going to suck when it is nothing but a "more of what you love" sequel.

It seems to me "gamers" or what they're called don't even know what makes a good game anymore.

Then again with those who claim Resistence, Last gen ports, and watered down PC ports as games of being "quality" I'm not surprised.

For the most part yeah, can't really tell the graphics with that youtube quality

Good luck finding a copy, and making it work on your console (it only came out in Japan).

And no, you can't have my copy. :P

I'm not really interested in Sega anymore but their latest Sonic on Wii has me hoping they can turn around the series.

As for this game, doesn't look too good atm, but who knows? Might turn out to be a fun game on release.

COnsidering this is one of the most anticipated game for the Sheep...

you arn't serious?! THAT is what the sheep were hyping, god i would hate to see a bad game on the wii :o

It looks like it's using the Sonic Wii engine.

I bet this game sucks as bad as Sonic did.

And I still don't get what you're supposed to be doing.

Radiant Silvergun is the best SHMUP ever made in my opinion. And it has the deepest system ever in a SHMUP, but that's not an opinion. I mean 7 different weapons with just 3 buttons, and each weapon has an use and that you have to use to master the game.

Compared to Radiant Silvergun, Ikaruga was an enormous letdown, on everyway you look at it.

Making it work on a system isn't the problem, since you can just buy a ST-Key for less than $5. But Radiant Silvergun is the most expensive Saturn game, and it goes around $150-200. This is ironic, since Radiant Silvergun was cheaper than most Saturn games when it released, since it was published by ESP.

Can anyone show me an emoticon vomiting, cause that would be an appropriate response for Nights.Toaster_Cell

Take your pick:

*barfs in a bag and hands it over to sega*

I mean, wii has under powered hardware, but come on!!!

Good News: Trauma Center: New blood (+1)
Bad News: Nights (-1)

Why sega? Why?

It may turn out as a good title when it releases,but I'm not going to keep my hopes up.In fact,when this game was first announced,I didn't want to keep my hopes up,considering what SEGA did to Sonic.>_>VGobbsesser

Sonic's problem was his transition to 3-D. SEGA simply struggled with the transition; that doesn't exactly mean that they can't put out good games anymore. There are no transitions to deal with for NiGHTS, unless you count the controller.

[QUOTE="kansasdude2009"]im sick of the $h** Sonic Team is putting out these days. I remember when their stuff = gold... almost every time. SEGA... GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER!Panzer_Zwei

Wasn't it the US division of Sonic Team (Sonic Team USA or something)?

It looks remarkably similar to the original.

If youve seen or played the original you shouldnt be too surprised at how this game plays.

Still, the trailer was pretty ugly. the lack of background music made all the little annoying sounds (the frogs particularly) rather jarring. The graphics too, were particularly sub-par, though hopefully that was the low-res video talking and also hopefully they can improve on this game sizeably before release :(, hopefully...

All gfx disscusion aside, that gameplay just doesn't look that fun to me.

Honestly, it doesn't look that different from the original, except the levels are larger and the rings more spaced out. That, and the footage is missing music.

I guess anyone who's bashing this wouldn't like the original either, and since the game is basically made for the fans of the original, it doesn't really matter.

I persoanlyl clicked this expecting lag and such, but didn't get that. What I did get however was a lack of any music, a barren wasteland lacking any enemies or life, and some really crappy looking gameplay. Sega, just leave third party and go extinct. Leave all your good games to companies who know what they're doing.

BTW, when was this "One of the most anticipated games for sheep"? :?

wow what was that, lol. I wish they would start making some real games. The last game i got for the wii was raving rabbids for c-mas and before that zelda which i traded in after beating so all i have left now is rayman and wii sports. I really wish they would release some real games allready.zeldafan00013

Those are ALL the games you have and you're complaining about lack of games? If you don't want to buy any games, that's your problem, not wii's.

I think that you'll find that it was.

Kinda in the same region as disaster, project hammer and BW2

[QUOTE="Carmilla31"]I guess this is one less game the sheep are hyping? :(DSgamer64

At least for me it is. I have never had much faith in Sega though and the reviving of this franchise is just going to make it look bad with this installment.

Some of you kids need to play the old NiGHTS if you don't appreciate the whole flying through rings gig.serpx

If MGS for the PSX was a top down, 2d pixel fest with no voice acting,and no cg cut scenes, . Wouldn't you feel the least bit dissapointed?

I think that looks like fun. it could be really neat with the Wii controller.

[QUOTE="Tamarind_Face"][QUOTE="Drizzt13"]Whats so bad about it?Taz-Bone

The game is far from being done. The trailer just wasn't put well together. There are a lot of things missing. It's just showing off what the game is giong to be about. Stop judging it like if it's about to be released tommorow. Sega know what they're doing.Unstoppable_1

i agree it does look bland and boring....

i didnt know it was hyped except for fans of the series....

I am saddened by the negativity on this thread, it is evident that most have not played the original NiGHTS. The game should be glorious. The art style is pleasing, encompassing all the vibracy trademark Sega colour palette, the gameplay looks light, airy and majestic; and the worlds seem imaginative. One thing the footage does highlight is the importance of music in video-games, however on this front I have no fear, Naofumi Hataya- the composer of the delightful score in the original- is working as musical director. I am also intrigued about the use of the Forecast Channel, after all the original was a pioneer of similar features by using the Saturn's internal clock.

Yes the textures are bland and the gameplay seems very similar to the original, but is that really a bad thing? I once read an interview with a Sega employee (possibly Yuji Naka) who said the reason there had not been a sequel to NiGHTS is because they did not want to upset fans by altering it. The game will likely be a fan-service but there are few things you can do with a formula almost perfected on the first outing. For now I remain cautious about the implementation of the Wii controls but overwhelmingly optimistic that the game will pull through unscathed.

Shame on the pessimists of the gaming world, happy to lap-up the generic shooters and racers we are spoon-fed on a regular basis. I think I am now beginning to understand the reason why I feel so disenfranchised by gaming at the moment, and I can assure you it is not the influx of non-gamers.

That is dependent on whether you have played the original, if so you will be aware of the subtlety of the NiGHTS experience. It is almost metronomic and soothing; elevating the player to a zen-like state of concentration. Gamers are so cynical and scornful today, we need to return to the child-like fascination and discovery games once brought.

Whats so bad about it?Drizzt13

I agree with topic title "one of the worst gameplay footage I ever seen." seriously. this game will score below a 6.
