Ok I get it LKS is really freaking awesome. But answer me this, say I have enough money to buy a strategy game, I still don't have Valkyria Chronicles which got the same level of praise. Which one do I go after. VC had a demo, I got to try it, I really enjoyed the demo so I am already more likely to buy that one just cause I had hands on time.

I wish it was as simple as saying, hey this game got great reviews let me buy it as you guys make it out to seem.

You seem to mistake me for someone who cares about the story.

I am reading the IGN review now ok sounds really cool. It really is Pikmin isnt it, I just assumed it was like it not that it was exactly like it. At least it has a bunch of sim city like stuff to it as well, and a huge open world and stuff. Sounds great, will get at some point.

HD would be nice so it doesnt look like total ass on my TV.

Yes using any of the above licences will get my attention, but the game has to be good (which is why I have not bought a SW game in forever, not that FU wasn't good, I want great). But a game in a franchise I love automatically moves up the list in my most wanted games. I'm loyal as long as they continue to make the games I fell in love with. New IPs have to work to get my attention, if I really enjoy the first one then it can join my favorites list. With so little money I rather stick with what I know I enjoy than experiment.

LOL, whenever I see Force Unleashed abbreviated as FU I can't help but laugh. In all seriousness you are the guy that third parties have to work out how to sell to. Phantom Leo is what I would rate as a 5 in the gamer nerd/whore test. Wii needs to connect with the mainstream gamers more, the 7 and aboves. So what would you make you plunk down cash on day one for a 3rd party original?

I would say Little Kings Story (yeah big suprise). Here are my reasons:

1. You need something to play on your Wii, right?

2. Third party games need to sell on the system

3. It's awesome and has awesome reviews

4. You can talk about it with the rest of us eventually

5. There is a barking cow

*consults gamer dictionary*

"Will get at some point" is a coded response for "please stop bothering me, if perchance I should stumble upon it in a bargain bin at some unspecified point in the future, perhaps I will get it, just to shut you up. But chances are I wont. Fuck you!"

I see!

I might get it. What was the game about again? The abridged, lazy bastard version, please. Too lazy to read reviews.

You're a little king and you go around killing zombies with a sledgehammer.

You play as a little pimp, in a cape with a staff to beat people if they disobey you. You wander the land with your whores, taking over the world. You must own it.

Leo has money, I dont, there is the difference. If I had money I would buy everything.

Yes the Wii needs more mainstream titles but again my theory is they screwed themselves with the hardware, now they get stuff like lightgun games and everything but the major third party big budget game. Which again I am fine with, Wii is the type of system I will be buying games out of the bargin bin for years and enjoying them, its not the system with the games that make me salivate and want right now, unless its made by Nintendo cause they are the only ones making those GOTY award winning games on the Wii (or were the ones...)  

As for your reasons, needing something to play on my Wii is not a reason, I dont care where I play. If I dont use my Wii for a year oh well I am not going to feel bad for it. I cant do something for the sake of sales, so #2 is another bad reason. #3 is the main reason to get it by far. #4 also plays a part, believe me, not being a part of a something can influence you. Like right now I see everyone playing Demon Souls on the PS3 and I feel left out. I want to buy it to see what the fuss is about. When you guys are all playing this game and loving it I will feel left out. #5, can I shoot it? Can I shoot anything.

And yes I totally plan to get this game for under $20 one day.

You have nowhere near the class or grace of Leo. You are like a fart in the wind compared to him. He is Viggo!

Are you his little foreign helper.

Your AAA reviews bounce off me. Reading that above I bet that Pikmin 2 will outsell it... sad.

Check the press room thread.
