I downloaded the demo from Steam and didn't really like it... Out of the indie games I think Audiosurf is the best this year.

I'm sure the Wii version would get the game score. But good news that it's getting acclaim. I loved the demo.

Not one bit.

I'm guessing GS didn't care enough to purchase the WiiWare version, and see if there are any differences.

I thought there were some tiny differences that wouldn't change the score, but if you go to the Wii section and look it up there is no review.

I don't care if they review the PC game.

But I don't see why the score doesn't count for both platforms.

The text in the reviews yes but not before they have played all versions.

The PS3 and PC version of Dead Space was released tonight a week after the 360 version because they had to play these versions first.

Which was my whole problem to begin with. lol

I think GS should have downloaded the game on the Wii, and seen if there are any differences. If not, then post the same text/score for both platforms.

But it seems as if they're going to completely ignore the WiiWare version, which I find a little troubling.

Head on the nail.

And nah, I haven't played both versions. I'm just going by what I've heard. Wii has added content. Plus, it got a higher review on IGN.

I think that the Wii version could get anywhere from 8.5 to 9.5, if the controls are implemented properly. Still, another sleeper hit for Ninty.

I see it was developed by a company called "2D boy" :o Oh no, they totally ripped off LBP's Sackboy. They don't have an original bone in their body, this here "2D boy."

Both have the same amount of content, but the Wii has a (poorly implemented) multiplayer mode. The PC has real-time leader boards and more precise controls.

I know I'm getting this game at some point, but I have a platform dilemma since I approached this generation by taking the WiiC route. So, the WiiWare version has a multiplayer mode...on the other hand, the PC version will probably run at higher resolutions, not to mention the fact that I'm on my PC pretty much all the time.

Wii version has no level editor though (which is bigger deal for this kind of game) and you can get it in boxed copy, unlike Wii version :D

Not really, plus I would rather get it on PC as every penny there goes to creator, Wii port was handled by diffrent people

Maybe it doesn't count on Wii, but on PC it's a normal retail game :D

The review is up, and GS has moved on to a different game.

They'll never review the WiiWare version. So what are you wanting me to be patient about?

I can't find anything about it with Google, but they may add it to the retail version when it launches in Europe.

Another AAA for pc. We share this one with our sheep friends though! :DEspada12

I think you share it with everyone here. It doesn't exactly require a PC of Crysis proportions to play it.

AlexSays

if you would actualy look at today's reviews you would notice they also posted PC review of Dead Space, many days afrer console versions. Just because the other version isn't reviewed on the very same day doesn't mean it won't get reviewed at all.

It's possible(like with PC version of GRID for example), but not a sure thing. You will just have to wait a bit to see.

Very cool game, on the epilogue right now. The PC/Wii versions are basically identical. This is honestly one of my favorite games of the year, retail or downloadable.
