Thanks for the answers =D it makes way more sense now haha. The old school underwater gear the big daddys wear threw me off a bit.
The gameplay does sound very interesting and the moral choice is something I always enjoy, I probably wouldn't kill them . . =D even if they are creepy . . . maybe . . . lol.

The game really is that good, the Wii controls make it the best in the RE series IMO. And for 30 bucks you can't go wrong. It's a solid purchase all around and I guess a lot of people realize that.

Lol, well I'll say this about Bioshock:
If I owned a 360 I would get it.
=)
However I am a tad confused, do you play AS a person without a suit of armor or as a person WITH a suit of underwater armor?
In the commercials "you" seem to get smacked way back into a wall or something and a bare arm is shown. That's why I ask. If so how do you survive under water?

Just for the record Carry-On (
) I never backtracked. To me the game does look like crap. Which is where the miscommunication you speak of may have happened as people took this as me saying the game IS crap. Which just wasn't the case.
Though to be fair most of my negativity of saying it looks bad should be taken literally as the visual style, to me, is terrible.
But yes enough arguing back to Bioshock discussion!

Castlevania II: Simon's Quest was rated by the ESRB a couple weeks ago. It received an E and includes "mild fantasy violence.
haha, wasn't this the game that received the famous Nintendo Power cover way back when it first came out? The one where a real guy dressed like Simon is holding up a decapitated Dracula head?

Well . . . (and Lasse if you read this don't take this the wrong way) I felt his whole "vibe", if you will, was a counter to that of the other RFN-ers. But this may have been because it was his first time and/or because he was tired. As a whole he was far more monotone than the others and and came off as being very deadpan to me.
I'm being perfectly honest here when I say I kinda zoned out when he started talking for long periods of time about the GDC. Where as the other segments, I didn't have a problem staying focused on what was being discussed as it had a pretty nice flow to it (while also being pretty upbeat as RFN usually is).
I'm really trying my best not to sound like an ass but I'm trying to give honest feedback about it so please don't hate me.
I do think hearing from others is good though, especially other correspondents from various places in the world and I would like to hear Lasse again giving it another go and maybe being more awake to see how it goes.
It should be worth noting I did listen to the show twice and it was the first time I listened to the podcast while at work as opposed to home so there were many entertaining parts to it but yeah Lasse maybe just needs a little more practice to really fit in as a RFN commentator.
PS - Can you guys PLEASE do an audio level check between the musical segments (intro song and break music)? I always thought "maybe it's just my computer" but no, on my iPod as well there is a MASSIVE difference in volume between the spoken dialogue and the music with the music usually being far louder than you're voices.

Okay, why don't you go pay the $200 ebay fee for these and be happy about it. 900 points is a steal compared to what these carts cost.
Yeah because basing stuff off what their cost is on ebay makes perfect sense AMIRITE! Or their original price for that matter.
Edit: which is so high because of the hardware behind it . . .

Yeah I see what you're saying and I agree, the whole catalog is overpriced. This just continues the trend so I shouldn't single it out.

wouldn't deal with RE4 simply cuz zombies and horror stuff were of no interest. That's fine.
Ahhh see now, I never said I didn't give things a chance.
I NEVER got into the RE series UNTIL 4 because I saw the great scores it got and WHY it got those scores. Great gameplay (which enhanced the series far beyond it's pitiful roots), great graphics, amazing atmosphere and Capcom made what seemed to be an all around enjoyable game.
Just because I have preferences and gut feelings about games DOESN'T mean I don't keep an open mind to certain games just because of their past or just because they are new. I just tend to have a good idea of what I will enjoy and what I won't based on seeing the game in action, what is said about it and how I perceive the game to be.

"does nothing besides style"
"Low budget look and polish? Definately"
^ These do not shake hands.
Erem style doesn't mean it has to look good.
She's indicating it has a style too it and that's all. The style in this case is that of looking (in my eyes) simplistic without polish so I tend to agree with her.
As for her other statements I see where they come from, as some people on this forum make Killer7 out to be one hell of a game when all it is is your average shooter. Woopie-de-doo.
Edit: He's talking to GP.

And for the record:
Who says I didn't have facts about the game? I read reviews, saw demos, saw video clips . . . it wasn't like I just thought of the title and said "no". I made an educated decision based on the information presented to me from various sources and came to a conclusion that this game wasn't for me.
Sorry for debunking your ignorance statement but it had to be done.
"Not to be mean" but condescending should be a word you become familiar with Evan.

just pointing out that deciding something without any facts or experience

Thanks for the back up GP.
As for my "awesome" quote . . .
Yeah how many of you on these forums are EVER swayed by anyones discussion? I'm only being honest, but I guess some people just wouldn't understand that.
All I am saying is I KNOW my own tastes, Killer7 doesn't look like a game I will enjoy and based on what I have read / heard about it I can come to the conclusion that I don't need to try it.
Sorry that someone doesn't want to try a mediocre title that people declare as "deep".
And to answer your question, I don't mind games that are deep, but being "deep" is one aspect of a game and isn't a buying point for me. A better argument would have been "what's wrong? don't like good gameplay and great visuals with a good story?" Sadly it lacks the first two selling points so . . . yeah pass for me.

Thanks for airing your ignorance to everyone.
No it isn't ignorance, I know the kind of games I like. Killer7 isn't one of them.
Edit: I know you like LOVE Killer7 but in no way shape or form am I interested in the game nor will I ever be. It just doesn't look fun in the least.
To elaborate, I'm sure everyone here had impressions on games before they purchase them. To be honest, my "gut feeling" about a game is usually right, especially when it comes to games I am not interested in the least in.
Sometimes I let people, reviews or other sources get the best of me (it happens every once and a while, usually stemming from me wishing I was wrong about my initial feelings about a game) but I was let down with Rayman Raving Rabbids, I was let down with Elebits, I was let down with Paper Mario on N64, I was let down by the entire PS2 line up I bought with the system (to see what I was missing back in the GC days . . . which was nothing apparently) and so on and on forth.
After a while you just learn to trust your instincts (unintentional reference to Starfox) and Killer7 is just one of those games I don't see myself enjoying so I don't plan to pick it up.
Everyone has their own tastes and I know what mine are and Killer7 doesn't appeal to any of my tastes.
I'm sorry that this comes off as "ignorance" to you but nothing will change my mind about that game or any other.
