[QUOTE="-Wheels-"]Are you serious? A game has to have more than just shaders and textures that look pretty, it has to have art direction. That game has terrible art direction. It makes me sad to think people are wowed by the look of this game. Look at Metroid Prime 3 and RE 4 if you want to be wowed, those games put this to shame. Where has everyone been? Am I missing something? Are Wii owners more dellusional than once thought? Disgrace to gaming is this thread.Erkidu

Wii owners are desperate for decent third party support. This looks terrible to anyone who isn't blinded by nintendo worshiping. Stuff like metroid looks much better, i really dont see what the big fuss about this is...

No one said anything about AA/AAA games, or PS3, or Xbox 360. On the defense much?

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.

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 ;)

Its great that third parties are making their own engine, but this game just looks bad. It would be greatif a competent developer created something for the wii. Valve, IW, etc... I'm not againt the wii,I'm just calling a spade a spade

[QUOTE="ogvampire"]first bolded statement: what? the whole time i was saying europe so i have no clue what youre talking about. second bolded statement: european sales are the same, if not more, than North America. im using the sardonic tone because your being silly. its pretty difficult to misunderstand when someone types "Europe", but for some reason think i said "UK". how the heck do you misread that?Vandalvideo

Stop being such a deluded fanboy. Brawl will outsell halo 3 by the end of 08.

okami, re4, and zelda are last gen games. You don't notice that though because they blend in so well with the rest of the wii's library. By the way, which ranking system are you using? NMH is AA on gamerankings, but AAA on gamespot. Zack is AA on gamerankings, and gamespot. Seems like someone here is cherrypicking. Aside from the usual nintendo fare we get each generation, the lineup is pretty pathetic.And starwars? even you can't be that desperate...

none this gen

The wii has the sales, but won't have nearly as many great games as the ps2 did because of the terrible 3rd party support.

The 360 and ps3 will never get the sales of the ps2.

nobody wins! yay!

I know, this guy comes on here and writes five pages on why we can't have an inteligent conversation about video game consoles, well guess what? You just answered your own question, video games by their nature are not serious or rational in any way, so any discussion about them will never end up as such, just have fun with it.iamdanthaman

ding ding ding!

Instead of worrying about how rational an argument comparing pokemon is, take a second, stand back, and realize that you're arguing about pokemon. Do the same with system wars, and you'll see why this whole thread is pretty irrellevant.
