mangobear's forum posts
Seriously wtf!?
Why does everyhting about gta4 and mgs4 have to be contained in one thread? If there is something new, I wouldmiss it if it wasnt for people posting it anyways and getting their threads locked. Why can't people just create threads about the game? why have one huge fuking thread for everything about a game as big as mgs4 or gta4?
Wait, so if I leave electronic devices on unattended in my home, there's a possibility that something could go wrong? Well I don't see any way to avoid such problems. I guess I have to go sell all of mine. Vyse_The_Daring
just unplug everything in your house when you go away. Its the only safe bet!
[QUOTE="mangobear"][QUOTE="karasill"][QUOTE="mangobear"]Well relying on ratings leads to whole other discussion. Are we using gamerankings? Do last gen ports count (okami, re4, etc..)? The wii has recieved average third party support at best. None of the high quality developers have taken the time to develope a proper game for it. AC, COD4, GTA4, RSV, and the list goes on. In my opinion, COD4 and GTA4 alone destroy any third party support the wii has.Well COD4 isn't anything special, it's basicly playing call of Duty 2 with new textures and was very average. AC wasn't good, mainly because it was very repetitive, and I never could get into GTA games. See what I did there? It's called an /opinion/ and many people do find the Wii's lineup to be better despite what you think.Now onto this game. It looks terrible - from a technical and artistic perspective. Unless you're praying for a really original third party game, or you have your standrads set pretty low, you should be able to see that.
And by the way, dont put my name in quotation marks, it makes the conversation feel so impersonal ;)

Okay.. and many people don't think the wii's library is great. They're entitled to their opinion as well.
I don't see it though. I don't see how you can look at the Wii's third party support and compare it to other systems. The wii, despite being the market leader, is missing on an incredible amount of quality third party support. I don't see any of the talented developers actually giving a damm about the wii. Where is re5, gta4, COD4, BC, burnout, dmc, SC4, and the list can go on and on. You'll have to excuse me if I'm not impressed with last gen ports and mediocre attempts.
You don't see many of those games because devs don't want to spend the extra resources writing another engine or spend the time downgrading everything to accommodate for the Wii's lack of horsepower. There's no money in that. If you don't like the Wii's library then don't play the games, but just because you don't think the third party games are worthy of attention or excitment doesn't mean you're right.If you think nextgen means better graphics then by all means ignore the Wii and miss out on some truly amazing games IMO, or heck by a gaming PC, it's a nice upgrade over all consoles.
This argument is going around in circles. "If you dont like the wiis third party support, it doesnt mean you're right". Well what is right? just because some other wii fans think the games are great? their entitled to their opinion just as i'm entitled to mine.
The whole "next gen = better graphics" is also a tired argument. Its nice to reduce things to a simple form and call it a day, however. But I do like the main nintendo games - brawl and galaxy are great, i cant deny that. What i can deny is that third party support is good. its not. not compared to the games the 360 and ps3 are getting.
