Nintendo Gaming / RE: Super Smash Bros. Brawl (nsf56k) (OP updated July 31)

Overrated but fun. Personally I found the series as a whole to rely a lot more on luck then skill. Yeah it has depth but not enough IMO, at least in Power STone 2 there was alot of stuff going on it kept me on my toes and provided a 2nd layer to the fighting genre (Not to mention I found it relied on a bit more skill than luck at least compared to Smash Brothers). At least Brawl is shaping up to be a highly varied game that will have something for everyone (Like this awesome looking stage).


GP I am so sorry but I have to call complete and utter BS on that statement.

Complete BS. ::raises BS flag:: is there an emote for this?

Power Stone 2 is one of the MOST random fighters EVER. The main reason why PS1 was BETTER than 2 was because you could actually have decent skill fights in 1. In 2, the game was designed around 4 player combat with hectic stages that would collapse, do damage to you, etc.

Sorry but Melee has more depth than power stone 2 ever had.

TBH I liked Power Stone 1 as a whole better than Power Stone 2 but I digress . . .

I think the whole collapsing stage isn't going to be as hectic as a Power Stone 2 stage for the simple reason that (from what I can gather) the Stage just collapses. In Power Stone 2 when stages would change things would occur that would damage you, make you lose your power crystals, etc. Plus Brawl is a "flat" design where as the power stone series is more Top down view 3D style fighting which makes it even harder to keep up with stage changes.

Well . . . there are companies that make comebacks from being in not so great territories, so I don't see why Sega can't be "saved".

It's always possible. I think they really need some fresh new talent that will really help improve Sega's games. Sega's problem is they don't improve their games. Example: Sonic Adventure 1 had issues that carried over to Sonic Adventure 2 that carried over to Shadow the Hedgehog.

They don't fix the broken aspects of their games and that's what they need to focus on. Their games aren't really BAD but they lack polish and quality control in some areas.

It's sad because it always seems like Sega games are a diamond in the rough.

Castle Siege!!!

Awesome stage! I can't believe the stage collapses to the interior and then BELOW that. Good stuff!

Can't wait to see what's below the interior.

Oh I almost forgot, it should be worth noting that thanks to the Metroid Retrospective video I finally know a new strat to beat that underwater boss in Super Metroid! I had no idea you could link up to electrical feeds on the wall to shock the boss.

Nintendo Gaming / RE: review alien syndrome already!!!
« on: August 01, 2007, 06:05:19 PM »
Well . . . NWR reviewed it, but it isn't pretty.

Cons:
Obnoxiously repetitive gameplay
Obtuse and illegible menus
Hordes of recycled enemies
Awkward controls
Muddy color scheme and generic art design

Final: 3.5
There’s no easy way to say this, but Alien Syndrome is one of the worst games you could get for your Wii. The game is a hollow shell of generic art, obtuse menus, irrelevant leveling, and soul-crushingly repetitive shooting action. Even the most ardent dungeon crawler fan will be hard pressed to find something worth celebrating in this game.


(Bolded for emphasis)

I think I'll be holding onto my monies.

I've said this 18 billion times on this forum but it needs to come out on VC soon =(, more people need to play Super Metroid.

NWR Feedback / Slow loading forums?
« on: August 01, 2007, 05:39:56 PM »
For some reason tonight the forums feel really sluggish (while other sites are loading fine).

Anyone else experiencing this?

Edit: never mind forums are finally back up to speed after a really sluggish day. /dance.

You can delete this is you want mods.

Because some people like light gun games?

I know my dad LOVED playing House of the Dead 2 for DC and he always questions why more light gun games don't come out for various systems.

I look forward to being able to play more light gun games with my dad =)

With the free-aim lock on option on what occurs is you still can "lock on" to enemies so Samus' motion will still be based on the locked on enemy.

The difference is that you are free to shift the aim of your arm cannon to any other object on the screen while you are locked on, so you don't HAVE to hit the enemy you are locked on to.

At least that is how I understand it works.

I say the next generation, because this generation has brought the start of innovation with controls and emerging innovations with game interaction. I would like to see all console makers work towards this in their next systems and see what becomes of it.


You . . . you do know that MS and Sony will just copy Nintendo right?

With the Silent Hill Arcade game just being released, what are the chances that we will see this ported to Wii?

Nintendo Gaming / RE: Wii controls vs. Traditional controls

Plus Nintendo ran into a limitation on DAY ONE when free camera control was featured in the Cube version of Zelda but not the Wii version. Why? Because they had nothing to map the functionality to. Launch day and already Nintendo demonstrated a need for refinements to their controller.


A "limitation" maybe but look at Super Mario Galaxy. The lack of camera controls doesn't matter because their camera systems works perfectly fine without it.

It's not a necessity and by having a "gasp" good camera system there isn't a need for free roaming cameras. Thus keeping things simple but effective.

I'm not saying they shouldn't change some things with the Wiimote or let it evolve into something better, just saying more buttons isn't always the answer.

Just because it is simple though doesn't mean it has to be limiting.

A it stands the Wiimote does its job fine and those who want a more "classic" control solution with games that allow it can use the classic controller. I don't see a need to really add much more to the Wiimote + Nunchuck design. Expanding upon how the Wiimote of the future actually registers movement and such (to allow for even great 1:1 controls) would be enough in my eyes.
