Vudu, the fact that it is a contrast to what we usually play on the Wii is what's making us notice. It's like Viva Pinata on the 360 or Killzone on the PS2.

Killzone is different?

Adrock · « **Reply #26 on:** April 18, 2008, 05:58:56 PM »

Maybe because it didn't look/play like Devil May Cry......

In any case, there are high hopes for games like this on the Wii because if it succeeds, it could open the doors for more "mature" games. It's only funny on a system that has these kinds of games in spades, like if another company comes out with a mini-game collection on the Wii, which is inevitable. It's cliche and lame.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #27 on:** April 18, 2008, 06:19:20 PM »

That's the point. Killzone isn't different, but there was nothing comparable on the PS2 at the time, Thus, it stood out.

I'd rather dabble in THE CONDUIT than Far Cryron M. Red: Vengeance

That was the most awesome pun ever typed.

I'm going to buy this game even if it's terrible.

DAaaMan64 · « **Reply #32 on:** April 19, 2008, 10:53:22 PM »

I'm going to poop on this game even if it's good.

Kairon · « **Reply #33 on:** April 20, 2008, 04:27:01 AM »

The only way that this could be better news is if Majesco was publishing it.

j/k

Remember guys, this is still just a indepently published product. The quality could go in even higher if they recieve more money from a publisher and such.

Also, I could have sworn nintendo once said something about "helping out smaller developers" or something to that extent. What happened to that idea?

Studying Video Game Art and Design in Chicago Il always has us students looking at what kind of companies we can look to apply at when we graduate and all we have is Midway and High Voltage. High Voltage has always been a joke at the school though because until recently, they have always made HORRIBLY crappy games. Maybe times have changed and they want to be taken seriously again?

The tech demo impressed me, the game looks mediocre though in concept, perhaps some dev will use the tech for a different game. I am interested in what pans out.

UltimatePartyBear · « **Reply #38 on:** April 21, 2008, 12:20:20 PM »

I was impressed by the tech demo, too. The surfaces look very nice. I was actually surprised by the number of sides on the columns. The only glaring flaw is the fact that nothing casts a shadow from that swinging lantern. There's also the lack of reflections off of the water, but that's less noticeable.

Over at Matt's blog he wrote that 10 publishers have come forward to support this title. No word on who these publishers are but lets hope that High Voltage gets one with deep pockets AND allow creative freedom.Here is the Blog entry. http://blogs.ign.com/Matt-IGN/2008/04/23/87599/

10 publishers is quite a few. I'm glad to hear it.

Trailer looks pretty good...The game is definitely on my "to watch" list now...

Some of the background and settings were unimpressive but the models looked pretty good.

FINALLY A GENERIC 360/PS3 ESQUE SHOOTER, JUST WHAT NEEDED.

I could go for a action shooter, so I'm down for this.

Ugh, I thought it looked horrible.
