Will Kid Icarus become the God of War of Nintendo ?

farnham · 2010-06-19 05:30:48

While Kid Icarus on NES and GB were good games.. they never got proper sequels on SNES, GBC, GBA, N64, GC, DS etc. Now that 3DS is getting a new Kid Icarus. is there a possibility that it will become a premier franchise like god of war (both greek mythology games) ?I think it has the potential to do so. While God of War is the more gory version Kid Icarus could be the more kiddie version..And we all know that Kiddie pwns!

wannabe? I'm sorry, but Kid Icarus is a quarter of a century older than God of War, it is in no way 'wannabe.' Respect chronology in your posts, please.

It's not on rails, it's action adventure.

The flight game play will be like Sin and punishment or Star fox (On rails) We don't know how much of the game will be flight any way

The Air Combat looks like the standard Rail Shooter combat. The on the ground areas it is a full 3D action Adventure. You only have 5 minutes to get to the ground.

That's all okay. So whenever we take to th air, the game guides us, but we can cotrol it otherwise, right? But by that reckoning, God of War II was on rails, because the flight sections of that game (Pegasus, Phoenbix etc) were also guided experiences. Icarus is NOT on rails thn, I would say ;) :P

The trailer didnt confirm any of that though. I say we still wait for the game to be released, or at least for it to get closer to release, before we tag it with a genre, at least such a maligned one.

Rail Shooters you can still move your character and Dodge like in Star Fox 64 your still on rails but you are free to move were ever you want to go on screen.

I'm not saying the whole game is on rails, but alot of it seems to be.

Also Rail shooters are great (Sin and punishment 2 is one of the best games this gen)

Exactly. That's how it was in God of War II's flight sections. I know most likely the flight sections of Icarus will be guided, but I'm hoping the game itself is action adventure.

I know, and I like them. system Wars doesn't, and we dont want the entire forum dismissing the game just because they think its on rails, even though it might not be :o
