I am the only person that thinks the actual movement of the characters looks just a little too floaty and slow in LBP for it to actually be able to feel that great controlling them. I mean I respect all the stuff you can do in the game and all the creativity but if the basic controls are kinda sluggish and floaty then doesn't that affect how much fun you can really have actually PLAYING the game and not just using it as a creation tool? I really think this gen many gamers have so overlooked actual gameplay and fun for the technology and features etc. Maybe I am old school but to me having very intuitive responsive and fun controls beats out anything else and is more important than anything else. Not saying LBP is broken but it looks like the equivelant of playing an even slower more floaty version of something like SMB compared to the vastly superior and more responsive SMW. I know which one I would rather play, even if they replaced the graphics in the 'not quite as responsive as even SMB' game with true next gen visuals like in LBP.

I really don't think the game is as bad as all these more 'core' reviewers are making out. I mean comparitively Electroplankton is similar, in that it's just a musical toy that you can't do much with other than mess around with every now and then, but it's not a bad game in any way. It's just something that some people will have fun with and others will not. Much like any musical toy.

After seeing a video on Gametrailers (linked in another thread) yesterday which reveals a Dog bark as one of the musical instruments in Wii Music, it got me thinking Is Wii music the worst game idea ever?

Big rigs seems to be the worst game ever created and is basically system wars unoffical benchmark for terrible, but at least it was a game with a goal in mind right?

No it's not worse than Big Rigs. Wii Music is not a bad game, in fact it seems quite polished imo, but it's just a matter of your taste as to whether you like it or not. That is completely different from being a pile of crap like Big Rigs. Wii Music is not broken, glitchy, doesn't have bad graphics or terrible controls, or whatever. It's just not some people's cup of tea and that is a whole different thing. Some people love it and some people hate it. That is not a reflection on the games quality. Get some perspective.

I created a thread on the IGN forums dedicated to suggestions for The Conduit and this was one of the things I added. http://boards.ign.com/nintendo_wii_lobby/b8270/171877489/p1/?38 (think it's on page 2) I really think it would be a great addition to a game like The Conduit, even if it was just a bonus feature that only the most hardcore gamers would really bother with.

What Should Ninten-Do?

Article about the game Nintendo should have made.

I LOVE Ninty, but reality is reality. Nintendo has brought me so many amazing titles over the years and they still are. But don't you think that this is the game they should have made? The only reason my Wii hangs around is because of my inner fanboy love for Nintendo, Zelda, and Mario. (I admit I used to be somewhat of a sheep years ago but I always loved all consoles).

I'm glad it's on the PS3 though, and I'm sure it will be a killer app. Props to Sony for snagging it up. Now they need to buy MM!

Now that it is the new face of Playstation brand, I couldn't see it anywhere else. I feel that MM, as developers, rival Nintendo's creativity and fun factor.

EDIT 1: It has just come to my attention that Sony did aquire MM :P.

EDIT 2: Sheep what do you think of LBP?

TREAL_Since
Imagine if Nintendo had made this game...Just replace all the default characters with Nintendo ones and all the default backgrounds and custom objects etc with Nintendo designs... I think that could have been sooooo magical. I honestly thought this was the kind of thing Nintendo had in mind when I first heard about the Revolution but alas it took a developer on PS3 to do what Nintendon't apparantly.

[QUOTE="Impurekind"]Alex Kidd in Miracle World is still one of the best old school platformers out there. What the hell are you talking about FirstDiscovery ! If they kept the gameplay similar to Miracle World but made the game 2.5D, Like New Super Mario Bros or the recent remake of Bionic Commando (the 2.5D version), then I think it could be brilliant...and far better than ANY of the Sonic games.FirstDiscovery

In that case, i played the SMS game WAY back in the day and considering i had played so few games i liked it

Same with Alex Kidd on Gen, but at the same time, reviews back then and even today still blast it. Heck i was playing it the other day and it wasnt all that great

As an example Alex Kidd on Gen doesn't come close to the quality of Alex Kidd on SMS even though they appear very similar. I only ever thought the original Alex Kidd was great and the rest were very average but from what I have seen most modern reviewers, and certainly people with memories of the original Alex Kidd on SMS, look back on it very fondly and still regard it as a great 8bit platfomer. In many ways it's superior to the likes of SMB, although that game is more of a classic, but Miracle World offers so many things in the design that were really cool and fun back then and still are today imo. Wiht a modern touch up, but sitll keeping the same basic game design and ideas, I think it could work. I still think it would need to be a WiiWare game though because I don't think it would be deep enough to really work as a full retail release. Maybe they could do a MM9 type of update.

Wii sports has to be one of the most overrated games in history. I hate using the word "overrated" but there's simply not a better word to describe it. It ends up way too high in lists all the time. Yes it's pretty cool, but essentially it's just a demonstration to show what the Wii remote can do, at least that's how I look at it.DA_B0MB
I agree. The bowling is good and that is about it. Wii Sports is not a great game (and imo it's mostly very average) but a game that was very important and had a big impact in it's time (for various reasons), and that is a very different thing.

eh...it was OK. I don't think they should count anything this gen since they havn't been time tested. Does anybody really think people are going to look back on this gen and think COD 4 or GTA 4 are the best games, I doubt it.DaBrainz
Exactly. That's why is annoys me when they add stuff like this to the list because it's more about the fact that right now they are impressed by what it's doing technically etc than how great a game it trully is and how well it will stand the test of time to actually prove this. If it was a list of most influential or important games, or whatever, then I think games like HL2 and GTAIV etc count but in terms of the best games ever I don't think they come close.

Call of Duty 4 is a decent FPS game and that is all. It's very linear and very scripted, which allows for some dramatic moments, but not much else outside of this. If you come back and play it in 10 years time, when the technology behind it is no longer impressive and the hype has worn off, then you will see this. I hate when a game gets so much acclaim just because people are blinded by it's impressive technology at the time it's released. COD4 = great game...but no way in hell is it one of the top 25 games of all time. Not by a long shot. It's not even the best FPS of all time. Not by a ways. The rest of the games on the list make sense for various reasons (although not reasons that make them the best game ever but some of the most important or influential etc) but this game is on there simply because it's cool to think it's amazing right now. Don't argue with me now...It's pointless. Just come back in 10 years time and we will see how much fun it is to play against all the newer FPS games. Also, don't say well that's stupid because of course they will be better because it's not the tech I'm talking about, it's the gameplay, and that shouldn't age much, just like games like SM3 or C:SOTN or Goldeneye etc are still as much fun to play now as ever. I even think the same thing goes for Half Life 2 for the most part. It's a decent FPS games but in reality Doom, Goldeneye, Counter Strike and Halo are all superior FPS games in my opinion, for various reasons. Also, as a personal note, SMW or SMW2:YI are still the two best platform games of all time, and both are superior to SMB3 imo, so if you are going to have any platform game on that list then it really should be one of those two.
