So Mikami or no Mikami? I'm getting a God Hand vibe, which feels very good.

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.

Ooops! My bad! It was no one here!

I officially revoke any and all besmirching comments I made in regards to this forum. I just got all hot headed over the damn thing. I must have read about it on one of the other sites that were linked to this thread and just sort of back-linked it here subconsciously. Bah! Get caught up in my own emotions too much.

But the thing is, the issue is out there and people are using it as a point to belittle the Wii. And it's spreading...

I just got.... UGH!!!!!! So angry when I read it, even the first time. It makes me want to snap the heads off of any idiots who could even entertain such an idea!

*stuff*

Umm... I never here nor there insisted that the Wii could perform on the same level as the PS3/360 graphically. I was insinuating that a number of people seem to be under the impression that Wii wouldn't be able to put out a good looking game at all. I mean, shouldn't the vast majority of Wii games look at least as good as the best GC games from last generation? Right now most of them look worse than Dreamcast launch titles. The fact of the matter is developers are low balling the system and people are beginning to think that that's the best it's ever going to get and that the only way that anyone is ever going to be able to push the system is stylistically, which is patently untrue.

Beyond that, I think SMG looks damn good, even compared to some of the powerhouse titles on the PS3/360 for the sheer fact that I don't like hyper-realistic graphics and what the hell is up with all HD games having this weird plastic sheen on everything? It looks like everything's wrapped in cellophane. Do HD graphics go bad that much faster if they're left out for any length of time? Blech...

I'm rambling now.

No Mikami...He just started work on his own game at Platinum Games (and supposedly is also working on a game with Grasshopper...)

LOL. &P

You may have a point, there's no reason to completely give up the tech push. On one hand, we probably won't see an Unreal Engine 3 game on the Wii, but on the other hand, we sure as hell had better see a lot of Quantum3 Engine games on the Wii! CHARGE!!!

Then again, there's also the need for Nintendo and their partners to create games that play to the Wii's strengths, and one of these IS that the Wii makes better sense for artsy styles, not just for the business aspects of an increased audience and cheaper development to lower risk for out-there projects, but because of other factors like recovered work and time that no longer needs to be sacrificed to the HD gods, or a simnple need to stand out against the crowd.

I really keep coming back to THQ. On one hand, they have that real colorful, real artistic, bouncy, wacky de Blob. On the other hand, they have DEADLY CREATURES!! MUAHAHAHA! SCORPIONS LIZARDS SPIDERS SNAKES BONES MUAHAHAHA!!! All set in a realistically scaled desert.. mmm...

The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.

The difference is that style is considered a good thing. Plain realism is boring, good games always inject some amount of style to set the proper mood and some use a lot. Meanwhile childishness is considered off-putting by adults, it often suggests that the game is at an intellectual level meant for children and would feel dumb to an adult (and often fail to be immersive by using logic that any adult will recognize as nonsense).

Man i wish I could be playing de Blob right about now...sigh.  Getting back on topic though, I wonder wtf Madworld is even about.  It has me a bit confused it almost seems like it could be a fighting game like how everyone was thinking Deadly Creatures was a fighting game too.

Well, I'm sure it i'll do well. Who cares if its capable or not capable of pushing out a graphical something something? This game looks absurdly fun. I'm not looking for an epic game like Lost Odyssey or something. I'm looking for something a little crazy, and this fits the bill. Just hope its good.

I hope this game is to other third party games what the (great) Gary Jules version of Mad World is to the (mediocre) Tears for Fears version.

Beats Gary Jules.

QFT. i'm not a big Tears For Fears fan (don't know anything that wasn't a single to be honest) but gary jules can suck a fat one, especially for that horrible cover. same thing goes for anyone else who does horrible covers or uses samples of good songs and ruins them (see: whoever sampled Soft Cells cover* of "Tainted Love" for that song "S.O.S.")


*yes, its a cover.
