^^^Is that made by the same guys? It looks like the exact same type of concept.

That Gamespot Conduit question just shows why Gamespot are retards now, and they obviously don't care much for Wii. How exactly is having graphics that push the Wii to its limit a "moot point"? Considering it is, in fact, so underpowered, isn't it then even MORE important to get the most out of it?

I didn't see anyone complaining about Metroid and Mario saying "ugh...why did they waste their time making the game so beautiful? I want N64 graphics damnit!"

Really, fucking moronic question. The kind of question that deserves a classic Dave Mustaine "you're an idiot" look (at the 2:50 mark):

Still, got to love High Voltage for their dignified response.

AQUANAUGHT'S HOLIDAY

I dont think it's the same developer but a few of those screens are spookily similar to things in endless ocean. I think that they really took inspiration fron EU, the game has been out for a good 9 months in the west, over a year in japan now; so I'm sure given the similar subject matter, they have played it to hell and back. I mean really some of those screens look like high res versions of things in EU. Such as the ghost ship or garden, or underwater ruins. Even the column cave and whale shark or giant squid. Really I don't know how many people here own EU apart from Foolz and Ravenprose but I see spooky similarities. Then again both developers may just be re-creating famous underwater landmarks and sights so have a similar looking game. Either way if I was a PS3 owner I would have this game near the top of my list and if I was a wii owner, which I am, I would and should be picking up Endless Ocean especially given its budget price.

So who's getting Civilization Revolution today? I am for sure...can't wait.

Okay but at least tell us what websites you visit. My PS3 and 360 news skillz are lacking, because I do not own those consoles.

I just did. Best place for PS3/360 info for me is IGN and the qj.net sites. Threespeech for PS3 stuff. CVG etc.

Not interested, still bogged under in games. have to search up gamefaqs for mass effect and SC4. I hate SC4 360. I probably should have picked up the Xbox 1 version.

Splinter Cell? Yeah its not as good as the others....has its moments though.

Where am I suppossed to place this bug? On the mission right after the prison? I have had this game for well over a year and this is how far I've gotten. Boring POS.

Dude I haven't played it since it first came out. I can't remember these things...

Only $80 for the Fable 2 Collector's Edition! Wow, we get a behind-the-scenes bonus disk and a useless Hobbe figurine! Woop-de-doo! That's definately worth an extra $20! (/sarcasm)

Seriously, WTF? Man, I remember not too long ago when bonus items as lame as these just came with the game for free. Sometimes I hate this industry.

I don't waste my money on this shit anymore. I used to get a lot of the "collector's Edition's" back around the early days of 360...until I realised that not only was I already being charged 10 bucks extra just for the games themselves, but then another 10 to 20+ dollars MORE just for a lame art book or some stupid trinket? I'm all set.

Its really amazing how much of a ripoff things have become just over the past few years.

The last "collector's" edition I bought was for Halo 2, and that was a complete ripoff. I paid $5 extra for a lame behind-the-scenes disk and some book that I never bothered to read. There was also bunch of disk scratches on my game thanks to Microsoft's craptastic case design which allowed the game and bonus disk to smack each other during shipping. After that, I swore I'd never again buy another "collector's" edition, and I haven't.

That being said, from a business standpoint, these companies are very smart in making these. It's basically free money to them. Throw a few trinkets and videos onto a disk and charge $10-20 extra. Fanatics will pay for them.

Do you ever think that maybe you go overboard on the Endless Ocean pics? Get it? Overboard...hahaha.

Brad Shoemaker has his impressions of Force Unleashed on Giant Bomb. He seems to like it too. Says it really feels like the old star wars movies.

Ass effect!!

This is what I love about Steelio.....he always brings sophistication and intellect to this board.

Yarcofin, that cat looks sophisticated for some reason to me, and therefore I would go with something classical sounding...
