I still hope they aren't really expecting the game to hit one million copies worldwide because if they are then their going to be very disapointed.

Well I kind of figured the title would change because the orginal titles conflicts with a show on TV and the title would have to be changed in the US to avoid some conflicts.

Semi-related query: Why aren't there more severely stylized games out there?

Because Okami and Killer 7 bombed?

Oh, and because art style is hard to do.

It's just loli characters on his shirt...Come back when someone finds out there are lolis in the game (I hope this Shinobu assassin isn't a young girl...

)

I was expecting this to be a rename, after all they couldn't release a game with the same name as an unrelated TV show.

I hope this Shinobu assassin isn't a young girl...

That name can apply to men and women. I have no doubts they'll have you kill a cute little girl at some point in the game because that has more shock value than just killing cool dudes. Whether you'll kill her by ramming a wooden board with nails in it into the top of her head while she's throwing a morning star at you is anyone's guess.

If you're referring to Gogo, that weapon is called a "meteor hammer", apparently. Well, I heard or read that somewhere.

That would be too much like Kill Bill, but uncommon weapons and uncommon opponents are cool. In a strictly video game setting, that is. Killing a girl would have more shock value than killing guys, that's true. (A definite M, not a T-rated game.) Until we get desensitized to that sort of violence one day. Next thing you know they'll make a game where you boil a kid's rabbit or microwave some guy's hamster. Then again maybe we don't want to become too desensitized to this...

Stylized games are nice, especially with all the game developers these days trying too hard to be realistic. Visually, Wind Waker is more exciting than Twilight Princess, I'd have to say. But the general populace probably prefers realism which is sad, and that's probably why certain things like anime are either totally loved or totally disregarded and there's not much of a middle ground.

"Shinobu wears a short school girl outfit"

Now *I* personally wouldn't mind that much if it were a guy, BUT...

I know about the hamster but where do you boil a rabbit?

In a soup kettle of course!

With a Stone.

I'll bet 1000 Wii points that KDR is referring to microwaving a hamster in Maniac Mansion.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #36 on:** November 30, 2006, 05:27:23 AM »

I think that's obvious but in what game do you boil a rabbit?

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #37 on:** November 30, 2006, 07:15:59 AM »

Boil the Rabbit 64

lol and you didnt pick this up from the twilight princess thread where everyone was oogling at link shirtless myself included?

Dirk Temporo · « **Reply #44 on:** November 30, 2006, 06:34:50 PM »

Wow. Those screenshots are basically completely ugly. =/ What happened between the trailer and now? The new screens are completely hideous. The backgrounds are absolutely terrible (I don't even think they're cel-shaded), and where did all the stylization go?

KDR_11k · « **Reply #45 on:** November 30, 2006, 07:57:20 PM »

The trailer was cutscenes and very up close, probably using high detail models and shaders (I found the complexity of the shading conusing BTW). These shots are from average gameplay and have to be clear and fast to draw. I think it looks more like GTA with more stylization (you can't tell me colors like these are realistic).

BTW, does Bill count as shotacon or lolicon?

Pittbboi · « **Reply #46 on:** December 01, 2006, 12:54:01 AM »

Whew, those are some ugly screen shots...

Terranigma Freak · « **Reply #47 on:** December 01, 2006, 03:10:24 AM »

These shots are photoshopped pics of the magazine scans. They just blew them up and added some filters to the pics.

couchmonkey · « **Reply #48 on:** December 01, 2006, 03:17:58 AM »

It does seem to be a lot less stylized than Killer 7 (or the trailer) but I don't think still shots did any justice to Killer7, hopefully it's the same case here.

Hostile Creation · « **Reply #49 on:** December 01, 2006, 03:50:28 AM »

I have to see more video before anything else, and maybe more info. Screenshots are never reliable.
