You can't make fun of any Wii game and still dislike the system...

...because if you do then it will get another game announcement the following week.

This weeks announcement is Kizuna. Could somebody help me and remind me what last weeks game announcement was called? There where some magazine scans on this forum and it looked quite good.

Thanks.

Your title doesn't make sense though.

Also multiple announcements =/= good announcements. Just look at nintendos E3 conference. Lots of announcements,but were any of them good?

TC, the reason the Wii gets so much flak is because of NINTENDO. They aren't delivering for the rest of the year...or at least, that's how many gamers feel.

It's nice that there are some 3rd party prospects that excite you and others, but it's not enough to change the tide that NINTENDO controls. They set the pace, and their decisions will echo for years. 3rd parties will follow their lead, not the other way around.

Almost would make you wish SoTC's low res textures were dealt the same way... :o

I kid, I love SoTC.

Anyways TC, I really don't follow the topic's name. :| But I don't think you can tell me what to like or dislike. For the moment, I do dislike my Wii, hell the only game I play, I lent to my cousins (SSBB) and haven't even felt like getting it back yet. I'm disappointed in how Nintendo is handling the Wii's gaming supply at the moment. Even if it gets a new announcement, it's hardly worthwhile, or worth bothering getting excited for, as rigth now there's little out to be excited about. What's the point of more news when these games won't be touching the Wii till maybe the end of this year if we are really lucky, or next year? :|

The graphics aren't that bad (although I hate cell shading)

The problem with Kizuna is from what we've seen,it looks completely unimaginative. Ripping off Shadow of the Collosus and Okami at the same time.

Im not a fan of cell shading either, i think its just lazy. The only times i enjoyed it were in okami and windwaker, but other than that it seems more like an easy way out so they dont have to figure out how to push the wii's hardware

Topic title explanation.

How many times can trolls say each Wii game announced has N64 graphics when one is being announced every week?
Nintendo Wii is gunning out bullet after bullet and the trolls can feel the damage. Eventually they're going to have to accept the Wii or appear very foolish and un-gamer-like.

And how exactly is "taking inspiration" from Shadow of the Colossus a bad thing?

Playstation fanboys would betray their own system to flame Wii. How very sad.

Shadow of the Colossus was a great game. They're just disappointed to see a game take influence from it that's not on Playstation so they hammer into it which is disrespectful to SotC. They should celebrate the fact that games are taking influence from it. That would be more respectful to SotC IMO.

In other words, they should see it as a good thing that developers are taking influence from it. In slandering the game for it's similarities they're acting as though being like SotC is a bad thing.

What? It looks like a blatant rip off. Maybe that's why people are angry?

Shadow of the Collosus is not something you can rip off without it being blatantly obvious.

Don't be oblivious on purpose. The enemy in this game even looks strikingly similar to some of the Collosus from SotC. And the guy is climing up his arm to kill him with a sword? Gee,I haven't seen that before.

Call of Duty 4 is ripping off Castle Wolfenstein.

Is genre not short for generalization? To help us find games that are similar in taste?

But unlike SotC this game is a action RPG, plus there are many smaller enemies to fight.

I didin't say THIS particular game was going to be inferior. I just said would you be pissed off if someone took your ideas of a game and made an inferior version of it. And by the way, for this particular game, it seems so blantantly stolen from SOTC. This isin't a small mechanic such as Cover system or over the sholder camera, this is the main idea for the game, which is more so to the heart of what exactly made SOTC, SOTC.

SOTC was a very good game, but it lacked in quite a few areas like no character growth other than expanding the health gage slightly, and that was done very poorly. Lots of improvement to be made in a game like that so more power to them i say. It's not like game ideas have not been copied before.

We have no way of knowing yet. The reason I think it will be inferior is because Shadow of the Collosus is a very hard game to top,and this game doesn't look all that great.

I couldn't imagine fighting smaller enemies in SotC,it would be boring,looks the same here.

it's called shovelware. the wii is bound to have it since it sells the most.

many announcements =/= good announcements
