If people can look past the graphics and see how it plays, it looks fun and very good. Graphics arn't that bad for a wii game either, thanks to the engine High Voltage are working on.

And knowing how well some games can work with the wiimote (MP3) it sure to be even better.

Thoughts?

It's generic in every possible sense of the word

That's not saying it's bad but it wont bring anything new to the table

Add in the fact that the developer has already ripped off Wii owners before and it doesn't really look promising

Yep, I'll just take you lot as 360/PS3 only owners. Anyways, I think many will be surprised at how it handles once played with a wiimote. Only thing i dislike about it is the sound effects, but that isn't a big worry.

tell me something, why does every game to you NEED TO BE ORIGINAL? as long as it plays good (which it might once you play it yourself) and has a decent story, it can still be good. Originality doesn't make a game.

You completely missed the point. Red Steel and Disaster Day of Crisis both looked promising and then turned out less than promising. The point is, don't count the chickens before they hatch.

but reviews are all based on the reviewer's own choice, I enjoyed many games that scored low.

Originality gives me a reason to purchase it. Why not just pick up Metroid or Metal of Honor or something? This game looks/feels like an arcade game from 5+ years ago.

For a Wii game the visuals are amazing. Once you get past the motion sensing, the gameplay looks pretty generic however. If I wanted a game that looks like it played like Half-Life, I'd play Half-Life again.

First: True, Red Steel looked great and flopped. Second: I used to own a Wii, the motion controls pissed me right off to the bank when I sold it. The motion controls will not save this game, not even the interesting guns which some of them look organic and cool.

I need to call BS on that man. Why is it that whenever we discuss wii games we need to tip toe around or disregard the graphics? Mario Galaxy and Metroid look dam good in general. This game looks technically bad, artistically bad, witch juvinile art direction. It reminds me of a PC game from 10 years ago like Unreal or Quake which was cool at the time. If Nintendo can create content as beautiful as Metroid then I have no pitty for High Voltage's attempts. Just ignore for a minute that PS3 and 360 dont exist. Now ask yourself if you'd be excited for this crap if wii tech was the benchmark.

I think people need to stop comparing it to games like COD4, Halo, Killzone....for the wii, it looks good..considering the hardware. And the gameplay look like it might be a lot of fun in multiplayer/online.

Can't say it looks very good. There's very few enemies in an area, and they don't look very interesting to fight. Framerate was chugging too when he was fighting that big green alien thing.

No way. Don't make excuses for the Wii, don't protect it, don't put it in it's own category. The Wii stands next to the 360 and PS3. Why accept generic stuff like this when the other 2 have games lightyears ahead in almost every category?

Stop comparing it with good games. Compare it to generic trash like haze, and legendary so it doesn't look that bad.

1. Looks generic, both in terms of art style and gameplay 2. Looks like a fun game. May not be the best game ever, or do a lot new, but that won't stop me from getting it and enjoying it. 3. Even with its generic looks and gameplay, I'm hoping that it will do well with the controls, online, and other features, showing other companies how to do those things right, and maybe we'll get a non-generic game done well as a result.

I think you're the only one in this thread who is talking about graphics. The one interesting thing about this game is the secondary fire of the weapons. And of course, Kevin Sorbo and Mark A Sheppard for voice actors. No sci-fi game, movie or TV series about spaceships n **** is complete without at least some form of Shepherd.

I need to call BS on that man. Why is it that whenever we discuss wii games we need to tip toe around or disregard the graphics? Mario Galaxy and Metroid look dam good in general. This game looks technically bad, artistically bad, witch juvinile art direction. It reminds me of a PC game from 10 years ago like Unreal or Quake which was cool at the time. If Nintendo can create content as beautiful as Metroid then I have no pitty for High Voltage's attempts. Just ignore for a minute that PS3 and 360 dont exist. Now ask yourself if you'd be excited for this crap if wii tech was the benchmark.

took the words out of my mouth. I'm excited cuz of how the game will play with the wii's controls not cuz of its graphics. Brawl, mp3 and heck even twilight princess still look awesome. I think windwaker still looks appealing in terms of the visual factor.

ye. Seems like you don't need the console. What good is a console if you don't like any of the games. Smash it, grind it up , and drink it. After one whole cycle, rinse and repeat.

But seriously, the game isn't even out yet.

it's still a bit early to cast a definitive opinion on this one.

however, if i wanted to play FPS games, I wouldn't have bought a Wii. the other two consoles do those to death, and IMO, if you've played one, you've played them all.

i'll probably rent it, just to see, but it's no where near the top of my list.

now as for Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest for the Wii... those I can get behind.

LOL.... those graphics look horrible. Honestly, that game could pass for a ps2 game (in 2004). but hey i cant see the future, maybe the game will be fun, but I highly doubt it. It's a well-known fact that FPS games are NOT good on the wii. Using the wii mote is neat idea, but most people would rather use a mouse/keyboard OR a standard dual analog controller (ps2,ps3,xbox etc) for that kind of game.

I am almost positive that game willl get a 6.5 or lower on GS (and thats being optimistic). not to mention its from Sega......one of the worst game publishers today. Its sad, but true......Sega and Atari games are not very good anymore. both of the companies are just shells of what they once were.

You completely missed the point. Red Steel and Disaster Day of Crisis both looked promising and then turned out less than promising. The point is, don't count the chickens before they hatch.

Going by that logic, we should never hype any game ever. Is that the philosophy you live by. If I look into your past posts, will I find nothing of you hyping a game before it comes out?
