Nintendo Gaming / Day of Reckoning

« on: June 23, 2004, 11:29:58 PM »

Hey was sup ladies and gents.

This is a topic where you can talk about the upcoming game WWE Day of Reckoning.

Discuss who you want to see in it?
Your impressions on the entrances and charecter models.
Also you may discuss your favourite wrestler etc.

First of all I really do hope they have a draft lottery of some sort in there. Also Elimination chamber and I quit match ( to utilize the new submission engine ).

People Im looking forward to playing as - Renne Dupree, Chris Jercho, Christian, Batista, Eddie Guerrero and Randy Orton.

I havent watched any of the latest entrances due to technical problems and all my impressions are off pics, so please bear with me. So far Undertaker looks really good as does Mysterio although he needs a bit of touching up. Kurt Angles eyes are really bad and I pray to god that they get cleaned up.

Thats it for now.

Nintendo Gaming / Day Of Reckoning

« on: June 23, 2004, 11:22:03 PM »

I have to say this is one of the most underrated games of this generation. I played this ( and beat it ) and cant believe this game only recieved scores of 7's and 8's.

The game has an intriguing storyline which isnt finished. At the end of the game a little to be continued screen comes up. Know what I want to know is what are the chances of there being a sequel? The game ended with the intention of there being a sequel but so far I have heard no news on it.

Was it canned due to low sales? Is it being kept hush-hush?

I would like to know a few peoples views on the game as well.

« on: May 19, 2004, 10:12:48 PM »

O.K

I live in Australia as most of you know. Now in Austrailia Raw ( WWE ) is on Fridays - 3 days later than the US. Now im not sure why but I always have an urge to find out what happened by checking out this site nodq.com.

I want to be able to ban myself from visiting this site. Is there a way I could do that? Even better is there someway I can ban myself from the site in-between Tuesdays and Sundays?

I know most of you are gonna say just dont go on the site but ...its like a drug. You keep going back ...HELP ME.

General Gaming / E3 awards

« on: May 14, 2004, 12:55:51 AM »

O.K e3 is over and very few is left to be shown so I figured I will host ( I feel like rove when I typed that ) the 1st Annual E3 awards.

( keep the post long. Dont write jibberish. )

O.K the catagories are -

Greatest graphics
For me the Graphics award is awarded to Resident Evil 4, although Metroid Prime was there I dont really like its art direction. Also Im sure that if Zelda was shown a little bit more that it would have taken the prize.

Runner Up
This award goes to Zelda. I really wanted to put Zelda into first place but not enough of it was shown to pass of final judgement. Awsome art direction and I really believe that this will be the greatest game this generation.

Biggest Suprise
ZEEELLLLDDDDAAA. I really had no idea. I was sick of visiting boards where all they would do is speculate on this. Nintendo totally caught me off guard and I must hand it to them.

b]Runner Up
This must go to 2 games. Advanced Wars - Im really happy with the way this game is coming along and it is along with Geist and Zelda my most anticipated game. Geist - Reading GCA's impressions really had me thinnking  what it would be like to play this game. After lots of thought I realised this game will be AWSOME.

Biggest Dissapointment
This award must go to Viewtiful Joe. I was really expecting there to be more changes to the title. I really dont believe that this game should be in devolpment. ( to know why check the e3 thoughts thread in the Trade Show discussion ).

Runner Up
No doubt it has to be the 3rd party support. I cant really remember but was there any games that were announced at E3 exclusive for the gamecube? NO.

Greatest Audio
No doubt this award goes to Zelda. When I first heard the music I peed myself. Classic Zelda music and I love it.

Runner Up
This goes to Resident Evil 4. The sounds in this game really help to intensify the mystery of the villegers. It is really eerie stuff and suits the game very well.

Game of The Show
This goes to Zelda. Even though it was a small video, this is what got me excited most at E3. I really believe that this is Nintendos saviour, it will get all the old Nintendo fanboys back on board.

Runner Up
Geist - The concept of this game make me so ...jiddy. I really love all this possesion nonsense and pray to god that we get it this year.

Most Anticipated Game ( What games do I want after thier showing off at e3 ).
1. Zelda
2.Geist
3.Advance Wars
4.Star Fox
5.Resident Evil 4.

Now I will just add some impressions of some of my most anticiapated games.

Zelda - I really hope that this game takes Zelda into a whole new world. I love the concept of Fighting on a horse and really hope that you can get a lance or something. I also want the storyline to revolve around war which would be really, really cool.

Geist - This game is sounding really cool. The concept is AWSOME. The potential in this game is huge. I really love the idea of possesing beings and animals to get past security. Also the games focus on Puzzle solving as well as shooting is really cool. Lets just hope that the Graphics get cleaned up as well as the controls.

Advance Wars - I really hope that there is a milti-player mode. It would be Awsome if me and my brother are assigned our own little armies and can take out each other. I hope controls are clean and that the story is there but light hearted.

Star Fox - This game has so much promise. I mean playing as Fox on foot with a blaster while being able to get into any vehicle of choice is really exicitng. I hope that the game gets a graphical boost because after beating SFA its hard to see Fox sooo damn ugly.

Resident Evil 4 - I really hope this game isnt as hard as the previous games. I had lots of trouble in REmake and was too scared to play it on my own. I really hope that the storyline doesnt trace back to Umbrella because at the moment the RE series should be over Umbrella.

Other Mentionings

Also at the show I really liked Paper Mario. This year will be really good for the GCN and come next e3 I will be prepared for the Revoloution.

Final Note
To the Mods. I had trouble deciding where to put this. I know all e3 discussions should go into the Trade Show Discussions but I also felt that this could.should be in here where everyone will see it.

General Chat / The Official What to buy thread

« on: April 20, 2004, 10:16:23 PM »

O.K before I start I wanna know something. Am I able to make something offical ? or does only a mod have that honour?

O.K - Now I know there is a What to buy thread in the GCN section but I would rather opinons from you guys because I know you all quite well.

Now my birthday is coming up and my brother is gonna get me a game.

Now I want Metroid Prime, Fusion, Zero Mission. Splinter Cell and Fire EmBLem.

Now he can only get me one. So I told him to get me Prime. And seeing that you can unlock Metroid 1 ( Zero Mission ) using Fusion and a link cable - I am thinking of getting Fusion.

Now my question is do I have everything right ? And how much are each of them here in Austrailia ?

Nintendo Gaming / WWE Day Of Reckoning - Discuss

« on: March 11, 2004, 10:54:37 PM »

Ok People

Ign.com has just done a news piece on the next WWE game. Day Of Reckoning has a very different , more realistic concept when compared to other wrestling games.

I have a few concerns ...If I start a carrer with the Rock or Austin does that mean I would have to go threw the Amatuer leagues ? ...I mean story mode should only be for Create a Wrestlers , or there should be a complete different story side for already established wrestlers.

Also Ign mention 40+ wrestlers ...which is quite low ...Im wanting 70+ ...40 isnt very much , that number is most likley an estimate but ...just something that caugt my eye.

Anyway ...Discuss.

P.S - The concerns/question arent able to be answered yet ... I know no info is out yet ( other than IGNs info ) ...Discuss my concerns ...what do you think they will do ?

I have a few questions that I want to ask ,

General Chat / Whats next ?

« on: December 01, 2003, 07:01:43 PM »

Hey ppls. I was sitting down last night thinking...whats next? We had 2d, 3d etc But we cant keep adding on polygons.

Soon it will be realistic graphics. People play games to escape reality . What could come next is beyond me. But is it beyond you? Do you know whats next ?

Virtual Reality isnt too realistic ( I mean its so expensive and complicated , It also cant be good for your health ) .
