[QUOTE="Grinning_Demon"][QUOTE="crazy-player"][QUOTE="Grinning_Demon"] Wayforward doesnt want to go under.

What? :S

Wayforward = small talented developer focused on Nintendo systems HD development = lots of money and resources if flop = bankrupt

I could see it being an arcade/psn game, but I would be shocked if this did well at retail if it was on 360/PS3. Hopefully it does well on Wii.

That's coming to DS as well, so I think I'll go for the cheaper version.

If you're from Europe, GAME.uk is selling it for £17.99.

Plus the DS version wont have HQ backgrounds and voice over, no charismatic Nico and George VC is a bid no for me.

Is it possible to watch these videos and now have a huge smile on your face? Love it. It's like a cross between Calvin & Hobbes and Willy Beamish (if anyone else on earth remembers that game(

Broken Sword 3 is Sleeping Dragon for the PS2/PC and Xbox .
It was decent but it doesnt even touch the greatness that is Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars or even Broken Sword 2: Smoking Mirror.
The 2D art is really alot more charming and memorable than 3D models. Didnt even touch Broken Sword 4 The Angel of Death =/

I want this to sell well so they return to 2D and make a sequel to Beneath a Steel Sky, another old cult classic PC adventure game. These where Videogame story-telling at its best. This Directors Cut is also filled with new content and reworked assets i just cant resist

I've been reading up on the nes version (gonna play through it tonight) and I have to say..... I like the idea of this game better than a Kid Icarus Wii!

I'm glad they choose this nes game to bring back! I'm also glad its a remake because honestly I don't expect a lot of the people who pick this game up to have played the original!

Nice!

The boy looks a lot like Earthbound's Ness, sans the cap.

The blob looks like Marshmallon,one of my favoriteYu-Gi-Oh! cards.

I've only seen the first screens and video,but I'm already in love with this game. We need more games like this.

there is some and i have a feeling if braid never came out on the xbox there would be a lot of lemmings hating it. it would seem that most of the cows are in their ps3 support threads
