Lindy hit it on the head;

Why do people care? You're getting the game and it's not a sloppy port/rushed crap game this time around. Going multiplaform means Capcom is going get MORE money which will get recycled in future products like MH4 or whatever.

Be happy you get it to begin with.

Just got my demo disk in the mail today. Can't wait to try it. I am really wanting to like this game.

Stratos · « **Reply #277 on:** April 02, 2010, 05:19:52 PM »

Yay! Mine came too. I might not have time to try it until tomorrow or Sunday though...

It's a social game for people hungering to grind; not a great-playing game nor one that uses Wii hardware properly (seriously, no 480p wtf; load up RE4 Wii in widescreen to see what it's like again).

Stratos · « **Reply #279 on:** April 02, 2010, 05:35:17 PM »

Sounds like Animal Crossing. Half the reason I enjoy that is because of the company and playing together.

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #280 on:** April 02, 2010, 05:39:59 PM »

That's good. Just remember it's specific to your companions and not really the game.

Stratos · « **Reply #281 on:** April 02, 2010, 05:42:29 PM »

Judging solely from the times I've enjoyed with you all here already in games or just on the forums I think this game will be a blast to play. So no worries there.

This community is actually the ONLY reason I'm buying this game, otherwise I wouldn't bother. Though I have a feeling I'm going to be terrible at it. Who wants to protect me?

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #283 on:** April 03, 2010, 01:51:48 AM »

I swear, the Bowgun is the worst weapon to hit gaming in the last decade or so. Light gun games on a D-pad are more intuitive than this.

How did this get on Wii, Capcom? You already used the RE4 Wii Port engine to make this game. Why go 57 steps back?

PSP, please take your franchise back. The Conduit is more fun.

I actually found the demo to be enjoyable so far. I beat the Jaggi after I figured out I had potions I could use to heal myself mid battle. I can see this being even more fun with other people. I do with there was a way to lock on to monsters though.

bustin98 · « **Reply #285 on:** April 03, 2010, 06:00:57 PM »

I've tried several times and have yet to beat the Jaggi... Gotten it down with the shock trap but when it retreated to its nest I got hammered.

It looks like it wants to be a nice looking game, but man, some details just don't come through too well. I have to stab my eyes out for becoming accustomed to hi-res graphics.

Stratos · « **Reply #286 on:** April 03, 2010, 07:01:30 PM »

The nest part is tricky because of the adolescent monsters that appear there. Before you just had to worry about the babies biting you but the nest has a host of medium sized Jaggi attacking you as well and they attack more similarly to the big one.

I just kept healing myself with mega potions and dodging attacks wherever I could and concentrated on the big one. I killed of a medium or small monster when I had a moment and was facing them but just dodged them most of the time.

I played with the lance wielder since I'm a fan of lances.

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #287 on:** April 04, 2010, 03:00:41 AM »

Took down Jaggi before the half-time mark using The Falcon Hammer last night. Along with suffering 5min of the Bowgun, that was the first time I played since getting the demo a while back.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #288 on:** April 04, 2010, 02:56:21 PM »

Is the full game Fist? What are the time limits like?

Peachylala · « **Reply #289 on:** April 04, 2010, 11:39:59 PM »

I'm pretty much only buying this game for two things:

-Online play (with NWR posters)
-Classic Pro controller

I am not interesting in anything else at all. When I'm more interested in Super Expansion Galaxy Yoshi Edition, there is something seriously wrong.

Sucks to be you Capcom ~~though lets face it, you deserve it~~.

Iwata Ask's for Monster Hunter Tri

You know I think this is the first time that Iwata has had a third party game being covered by Iwata Ask's.

It is an excellent interview and a lot of thought went into the game.

How sad that the impressions here are mostly negative. I guess I can save some money this way though.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #292 on:** April 07, 2010, 06:47:18 PM »

I've had the demo since day 1 and still haven't played it. =(

Enjoying Red Steel 2 though.

Keep in mind it is a demo which throws you right into the game and expects you to already know what to do, and that the real draw of the game, online multiplayer, isn't available in the demo. I don't know if I'd write it off so quickly.

Stratos · « **Reply #294 on:** April 08, 2010, 04:50:13 AM »

I don't think it's as bad as others are saying. It looks great and has a lot of potential that could be explored in the main game. I'm excited to customize my character and weapons. You couldn't do that in the demo.

vudu · « **Reply #295 on:** April 08, 2010, 10:37:59 AM »

I received the demo from Capcom in the mail yesterday. Thing is, I already picked up a copy from GameStop, so now I have two. Anyone here want a copy?

You're both right, which is why I'm still keeping a loose eye on the title, and I remember RFN made the same point that this is just a terrible demo. Still, it's disappointing that the game seems to make such fundamental flaws. I'll probably bum the full copy off someone before making up my mind.

It's just the next Wii game to earn the classification "big fish in a small pond."

I do.

Speaking of GameStop, I just went through the BS others have of a GameStop employee trying to tell me that the free demo disc is for people who pre-order the game. I argued with the game and flat out told him he was wrong. I don't know if the guy was a manager or not and I didn't have time to keep arguing. I considered just taking one of the demos (they were sitting on the counter), next time I am out near that GameStop I think I will go in and ask to talk to the manager (if needed, I will just take the disc anyways since it is supposed to be free).
