sheep seem to be happy now that their version of the force unleashed gets a special duel mode, and special controls for them and them only. that's fantastic. however, i have news for you sheep. let's take a look at the dev that is making this game for the ps2/wii/psp.

they are a lovely group of people known as Krome Studios.

here is their track record, with scores from gamespot.

  • Championship Surfer (DC, PS1, PC, 2000) 5.3(pc), 7.2(DC), 7.3(PS)
  • Extremely Goofy Skateboarding (PC, 2001)
  • Barbie Beach Vacation (PC, 2001)
  • Sunny Garcia Surfing (PS2, 2001) 5.9
  • Ty the Tasmanian Tiger, (GCN, PS2, Xbox, 2002, 2002) 7,5
  • Barbie Sparkling Ice Show (PC, 2002)
  • The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron Boy Genius: Jet Fusion, (GCN, PS2, 2003)
  • Ty the Tasmanian Tiger 2: Bush Rescue, (GCN, PS2, Xbox, GBA, 2004) 7.0
  • King Arthur, (GCN, PS2, Xbox, 2004) 6.4
  • Ty the Tasmanian Tiger 3: Night of the Quinkan, (GCN, PS2, Xbox, GBA, 2005) 6.0
  • The Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning, (GCN, PS2, Xbox, GBA, 2006) 5.8
  • The Legend of Spyro: The Eternal Night, (PS2, Wii, 2007) 5.0
  • Viva Piñata: Party Animals, (Xbox 360, 2007)
  • Hellboy: The Science of Evil, (Xbox 360, PS3, PSP, 2008)

now i have seen a few sheep saying that this game will be the first true multiplat to be better on the wii, due to motion controls and the duel mode. however, i don't see how you can ignore the influence of a dev this bad on the game.and if you still would like to buy this game after seeing this, i would also like to see your reciept for killzone 2 on launch day.

Have you seen the gameplay of it? It looks awesome, did anyone say that about their previous games? Doubt it, they are a porting company, there are loads of them out there, little third parties that get bought by a large company and used for their crap. Eventually they make a good game, or decided to break away (like High Voltage the people making the Conduit have done, which is why they also have a crappy track record), and you actually see some potential. Usuaully they don't have big enough team for the task, and are set a pretty specific deadline, look at Alone in the Dark on Wii, completely unfinished, but Atari made the team behind that release it anyway.

It'll be in the 6.5-7.5 area. It's Krome Studio's. Anyways, I think TFU will disappoint across the board.

They port games, its up to the original devs to make a good game. All they have to do is make a good control scheme, how hard can it be?"

...and apparently the controls are really responsive so things are looking good so far.
