Listen to this guy. he smart.

The "new" screens are just blown-up scans of the MARGINS of the GI article. It's just like Infernal's Chibi/Xbox "comparison" pics. Except we're dealing with printer ink-dots instead of compressed JPEGs.

Look for the scans of the GI article that showed whole pages. You'll find those screens -- at ~1/6 the size of the bigger screens.

Sarcastic tomfoolery is one thing, leaving the restroom without putting on your Critical Thinking Underpants is another.

Am I the only one who actually gets GI here? Because mine came in the mail yesterday, and boy is it sexy.

Nothing is sexier than Alan Rickman, except two Alan Rickmans.

Yeah. The pics in GI look way hotter then any scan I've seen. Better then RE4. Maybe not in terms of style...

Svevan · « **Reply #331 on:** April 18, 2006, 02:36:12 PM »

Yeah, that looks hawt. Sorry haters, but this is not N64 quality.

Here's another screenshot, think it's real?

Sir_Stabbalot · « **Reply #333 on:** April 18, 2006, 03:00:16 PM »

If all that is actual screenshots, Nintendo NEEDS to get those out in non-scan forms and let the hype commence!

i have a friend who works at a gamestop, so i did him the favor of becoming one of their member things and paying for a GI subscription so i could save a penny or two on used games because he said thats how he makes his money. so yeah, i get the magazine, i recieved mine a few days ago and non of the scans do it justice. ESPECIALLY the ones that are being blown up. graphics were never my thing but i've always said "good graphics dont hurt" (until games like terminator 3 that look good if you're not doing anything and have no framerate whatsoever). stop basing your opinions on the scans, the mag should be out by now go pick one up then come back and post ignorant remarks, k?

Actually I went to Barnes and Noble today and they didn't have it yet... they still had last month's.

Not sure I wanted it anyhow... I can't decide to buy it until it's on the market, and by then there'll be plenty of videos, quality screenshots, etc of all these games.

Gamestops just got them in today, so they should be around and on shelves by tomorow.

couchmonkey · « **Reply #337 on:** April 19, 2006, 05:38:52 AM »

Graphics talk aside, I think the game looks like it could be really great. I hope it turns out really well, because this could be the game that sells Revolution to Joe Halo and Johnny GTA in North America.

MaryJane · « **Reply #338 on:** April 19, 2006, 07:42:13 AM »

Just got the mag today, and screens look great! Hope they aren't touched up or anything. Also I can't wait for this! it just looks too good. (gameplay i mean)

EXACTLY.

One of the things I had ALWAYS said was that Nintendo badly needs to overturn the image that its consoles and games are aimed at children.

After reading the magazine close-up scans, it's blatantly apparent that it was Nintendo's decision to let Red Steel be the first Rev game shown off. There's no longer a doubt in my mind regarding whether or not they realize that Sony and MS love to saddle them with the kiddé image at every turn. Insecurity has sold so many products to so many people that it's ridiculous. With Red Steel being a flagship mature title, calling Nintendo kiddé just doesn't work anymore.

MysticGohan · « **Reply #340 on:** April 19, 2006, 09:27:02 AM »

This kinda reminds me of Cowboy Bebop in someways ( The Anime ), with Spike Vs. Vicious with Gun vs. Sword heh... cept you'll be using both/

Dirk Temporo · « **Reply #341 on:** April 19, 2006, 09:43:01 AM »

And I'm pretty sure that if you're all the way across the room with a sword, and the other guy has a gun, you'll be boned.

What's ironic is there is an interview with one of MS's 360 heads floating around today where the guy (Kim) says the Xbox had too hardcore of an image and that they are trying to market it to the more casual and all ages crowd. Viva Pinata is supposedly one of their important games because of that. They also will do more games with peripherals and attachments than before.

Nintendo does not need to balance their image much in the way of products, but need to try and change the mentality of alot of gamers who think they are "tiku tiku tiku! " through marketing. GC has a wide variety of games, with a wide variety of ratings (I hesitate to say "Mature" since that is very subjective) but there is still that wicked straw man out there that Nintendo is tiku tiku tiku! .

And with Red Steel as the first Rev game out there, that man is greatly diminished.

Now, if more Rev games will be revealed which will likewise be aimed at older gamers, then Nintendo can smash this image for good.

I doubt the 360 will be able to push into the family market segment. You can't aggressively market a console as being aimed at the "mature" audience, even going so far as to openly mock Nintendo, then turn around and expect that people will welcome it as a "family" console.

animecyberrat · « **Reply #345 on:** April 19, 2006, 09:16:08 PM »

n64 did NOT have that image at all, Mk 4, Quake, Doom 64, Perect Dark, Turok, Conkers, Nightmare creatures, OOT, V8 Second offense, the list goes on.

Where GC gotits image was Luigis Manision, Pikmin, SM Sunshine, etc. there were many M and T rated games for GC but theyd idnt sell well and werent advertised well where as N64 they were.

BigJim · « **Reply #346 on:** April 19, 2006, 10:18:07 PM »

Nintendo on the whole had that image since Sega marketed themselves as the cool alternative 15 years ago.

And I disagree with the point... One launch game in a system's 5 year lineup isn't going to change an image. It's going to take a more consistent library and a reasonable marketing strategy to do that.

BranDonk Kong · « **Reply #347 on:** April 20, 2006, 04:27:52 AM »

Conker's Bad Fur Day sold absolutely miserably on the N64, especially considering all the hype that it got.

EasyCure · « **Reply #348 on:** April 20, 2006, 05:39:52 AM »

ah good ol' conkers bad fur day. first time a retailer actually cared if i was 17+. theres no shame in admitting it, i had my mom come in and pay for it after they tried to card me, and yes even after they told her she was buying a game with "mature themes" and "adult language" she did buy it for me (hell it was my saved up allowance money!) truth be told, at the time my mothers grasp of the english language wasn't very good, though i did explain what the man sad and she simply asked "why the hell do you want a game with curses etc..." and i told her "because its coming from a cute little squirel, how could you not find that hilarious?"

I picked up the Magazine today.

The pictures look better than they did in the scans found online. The lighting looks the most impressive..

I think the game is widescreen too, unless they cropped all the images to that width.
