Looks like Marv from Sin City.

InsideGamer has more screens: http://www.insidegamer.nl/wii/madworld/



I wish this cool looking city was being used for something else than torture porn.

[NinGurl69 *huggles]

oh lol someone somewhere just mentioned this game will probably get banned in Europe.

[EasyCure]

torture porn??? please. This game won't be another manhunt from the way the devs are talking about it.

Not even 24 hours and it'll get banned. Who wants to swap their Wii for a European one?

Seriously though, i'm liking the look of this. If it can do exactly what No More Heroes did, but with more polish then i will be very happy. Sega might actually make some money out of us, SHOCK HORROR.

Freeloader for Wii is 10 pounds. It'll definitely get killed here, gore is bad enough but having the game's goal be killing people in brutal ways is an instant ticket to at very least indexing, if not banning.

LOL That sucks.

How awesome? SO awesome.

Anyone want a direct-feed trailer?

direct-food and youtube don't go together

"Finally, the studio showed off Madworld, a button-mashing, remote-swinging black and white bloodbath directed by Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami."

YES.  YES.
THIS IS THE KEY POINT IN THIS PIECE OF NEWS.

AFTER WORKING ON ZOMBIES AND NON-ZOMBIES FOR SO LONG, MIKAMI IS NURTURING SOMETHING NEW.  Extreme, comical, and waggle.

You realize that Shinji Mikami was the co-designer for Killer7, right?

Even better.

[Caliban]

This game will come out next year, so why are they anouncing it already? Seems too suspicious for me.

Dur.

But conflicting reports mention Mad World isn't a Mikami game.

Sega wants some attention ahead of E3.

Wii has no games until November.
Sega has no games until I don't know.

i want.. NOW

[Bill Aurion]

direct-food and youtube don't go together

Fine, do you want a real, direct-feed HD trailer instead?

[IceCold]

Whoa.. that's so gruesome. I wonder if it'll just try to ride on the shock value and not bother about solid gameplay.

[Bill Aurion]

I doubt it...This is Clover, after all...

[Plugabugz]

What I am concerned about is how much (not if it) it'll get watered down for a release here.

Most games are announced well more than a year before their release.

Oh great...

So now that we get past the idea that Nintendo is only for kids we get a new stigma, that Wii isn't capable of doing anything worthwhile graphically outside of abstract art.

And if anyone wants to doubt that stigma, just scan through this topic and see how many times it was asked if they chose this graphical style because the company felt the Wii wouldn't be able to output a more traditional graphically impressive enough title to compete with the PS3/360. And then glance over the articles that are linked to it and count how many times that's mentioned there as well.

Wow...

Sony couldn't beat Nintendo with the whole kids argument because most Nintendo fans could see it coming a mile away. Apparently when it comes to convincing them that the Wii is a graphically inferior piece of garbage they're much more receptive.

I can't believe how many people have accepted this as an immutable fact of life without 1.) At least trying to fight back and 2.) Apparently even realizing it.

Sony and MS have convinced you all of what they set out to do, that Wii will never be able to compete with them on the same level.

I would have thought real Nintendo fans would know better than that.

[Kairon]

I was about to agree with you until I scanned through this thread user0x7D... and I didn't see anyone talking about stylistic versus realistic. This game is coming from some really crazy developers, it's not too surprising that their visuals are pretty crazy too.

[Dasmos]

So now that we get past the idea that Nintendo is only for kids we get a new stigma, that Wii isn't capable of doing anything worthwhile graphically outside of abstract art.

PlatinumGames is essentially formed from past Clover Studio employees. How many of Clover's games used a traditional graphic style?

And if anyone wants to doubt that stigma, just scan through this topic and see how many times it was asked if they chose this graphical style because the company felt the Wii wouldn't be able to output a more traditional graphically impressive enough title to compete with the PS3/360.

Zero times.

You're a jug-head.

Yeah, let's fight back! How about we don't buy the game, that'll show them!

I bolded this to highlight the fact that you're an idiot. You're an idiot if you think the Wii is capable of the same level of graphics. Sure the Wii is capable of graphical prowess surpassing the majority of the games we've seen released, but you're kidding yourself if you think it's capable of PS360 graphics.
