"but I'd rather see 2d for others like metroid, mario, castlevania etc"
i think metroid converted realy well to 3D, and they are still making 2D metroid games too! zero mission looks great!
thats what they should do with mario! they have the 3D mario, but the side scroller was the game everyone loved! i want to see a mario game using the GBA hardware to its potential before we get one on a high end system!
Viewtiful joe is great! i cant remember the last time i'v been so addicted to a game! and i'm only playing a demo! the game is so simple to play, yet the way you play it is so diverse! like today, i was fighting one guy, went to slow, dodged him, gave him an upper cut, started fighting the guy beside him, the guy i upper cutted hit and knocked down the chandeleer and kills the hurting other guy for me, once i was done w/ him, i jump up in the air, and did an air combo killin the other guy!
and i know thaty there are so many other abilities that u'll be able to unlock in the final version! i cant wait, this is the best game in a long time, i think for sure should win game of the year!
but i dont think it will sell! people will dismiss this game the second they see the name! but if its advertised and people see the game in action, it will kill!
