Title: p.n.03 and further whinging about australia! (you know you can rely on me for that ;)
Post by: vroenis on September 04, 2003, 01:40:29 AM
got my copy of p.n.03 (on launch day - shouts to the big efforts of steve at the crypt in footscray - anyone in melbourne wants a copy, he's still got 5 or so left) and gotta say, i really like it. first off i'll say that sure, i can understand why people didn't like it, their reasons etc, but these things make the game different. if the controls were standard, it'd be the same as every other generic 3d shooter/hack'n'slash. i like the dodge moves and the way you can't move and shoot at the same time. reading a few article on it, a few writers have said they liked the way it becomes a game of timing your combination of moves and being familiar with room layouts, so the repeating of environments doesn't bother me much either. but that's cool, you did sort of have to hunt around a bit to get an idea of what the game was going to be like since most of the articles just showed screens and said 'it's gonna be real good!' - arg. and now to the whinging - the official australian nintendo website hasn't been updated since July this year. There are also no contact details anywhere on the site for feedback, only the phone-number for orders such as component cables etc. we have absolutely no reliable release dates for up and coming games. edit - sorry, they do update it regularly, but it's all gba and general news like 'thq ships insert game here to australia' etc. great. just letting you know all the numerous great things nintendo of australia are doing for us down here.

Didn't get it on launch day (28.9.) due to financial reasons, but I got it now. At first I tried medium, but after a few failed tries I figured easy would be a good start for getting used to the game. It's fun, but easy really distorts your experience (you can take out some enemies before they fire...).
I just hope the financial stuff works out before SC2 comes.

Actually, Nintendo of Australia updated their site today. Saying P.N. 03 was released worldwide, so i guess even though it was released a while ago, its officially released now..?
Anyways, how is the story of P.N. 03? I heard it was supposed to be a good story or something.
