Listen to Wu-Tang and watch Kung-Fu
Kojima on Pushing Tech. - I admit what he says is interesting but let's be honest what kind of game will use that? All I can think of is some Harvest Moon type shit. Even in Metal Gear that shit wouldn't work well, unless of course I stay in the same locations for days on end. Also"Kojima is currently rumoured to be working on a new game based on RPG series Snatcher, with No More Heroes mastermind Suda 51." WTF!? Snatcher is an adventure game.
Nintendo Power's Secret Game - And it's Sonic!
One of the site's forefathers.
WTF SUDA is anything but a mastermind of anything.
Sonic and the Black Knight - info, screens
- Developed by the same people as Sonic and the Secret Rings
- "This time, a sorceress named Merlina summons Sonic to the mythical realm of King Arthur, but it seems the fabled monarch has somehow been corrupted and now rules the land as the tyranical Black Knight."
- Uses a similar storybook device as Sonic and the Secret Rings
- "As Sonic runs along, a simple flick of the Wii remote will execute a basic slash, which is enough to dispatch most low-level grunts."
- More advanced swordplay consists of the ability to thrust, parry, and even pull off a buzz-saw maneuver midjump.
- "During our demo, we saw the hedgehog leap from a high precipice, then thrust the blade into a wall to slow his decent, sparks flying impressivly as steel cut through brick."
- "Combat is integrated in such a way that most of the time you can slice through any who stand in your path without even slowing down."
- Sonic is controlled with the Control Stick.
- "Our hero begins his quest as a mere knave. Only by becoming a full-fledged knight will he have any hope of defeating King Arthur."
- "his sword, a talking blade named Calibur, serves as a mentor."
- "If you help civilian townfolk in need of assistance, you'll earn points toward knighthood. If you smite one of those civilians, your reputation will take a hit."
- "At the end of each stage, the game tallies your good and not-so-good deeds and updates your rank accordingly."
- "Sonic can aquire everything from gauntlets to magical tomes to new swords, and when equipped, each article bestows him with a unique benefit."
- "On the audio side, veteran composer Jen Senoue is taking a smiliar approach, injecting familiar Sonic themes with a Celtic flavor."
-Sonic uses magic elementals to help him do various things, such as a bounce pad or a speed boost. They look like chao heads. The red ones give him a jump and the blue give Sonic a speed boost.
- About 200 items in all, with some being able to be combined with others to make new ones.
- You have the option to go online and trade items with friends.
- Rings come in burlap sacks instead of monitors.
- SBK Bringing back the skill system from Secret Rings, but they're trying not to have the skill system interfere with the game's tempo this time around.
- The mission structure also returns but the developers hope to make it less arduous.
- "Each stage has multiple branching paths and searching for townsfolk and treasure chests provides an element of exploration that recalls Sonic's early Genesis days."
- "The camera will occasionally pan to a side-scrolling perspective for a quick dose of classic 2-D action."
- "And there will be no dinosaur eggs!"
- "When people see that Sonic is wielding a sword, they'll probably have certain expectations of the multiplayer mode. And all I can say is that we're thinking along those same lines."
- "Just as they subbed in for such characters as Ali Baba and Aladdin in Sonic and the Secret Rings, a number of familiar faces will assume Arthurian personas in SBK."
- "This time, however, some of Sonic's friends will be playable. Each hero will boast unique abilities, and though the team isn't ready to divulge the full cast just yet, we do know the identities of two playable comrades: Knuckles, who brandishes two swords at once, and Shadow."
- Playing as these other characters is entirely optional. You will be able to play through game as Sonic, or switch to the other characters if you choose.
- "While the old guages from Secret Rings are gone, a new special guage will "bestow him with similarly impressive powers. The meter fills gradually whenever Sonic vanquishes an enemy or snags a purple elemental, and when it reaches a certain point you can unleash a powerful combination attack capable of tearing through multiple foes in quick succession. You simply press the B button to lock onto the nearest enemy, flick the remote to strike him down, then press B again to move onto the next unfortunate soul. If you chain together enough smitings before the guage is depleted, Sonic will receive a speed burst at the end of the string."
- "the team behind Sonic and the Black Knight is keenly aware of the franchise's past missteps, and their enthusiasm for doing right by the series is infections."

I've been saying this for god knows how long but nobody believes me. People have short memories I suppose.
He's Kojima with more coherent plots, but less of an idea how to make a video game. So basically they've both got the same brain, but in each of them only one half works. So combined we'll get the greatest game of all time.
And the other two halves will keep making Sonic games for all eternity.
Sonic Black Knight doesn't look as bad as I thought it would.
One of the site's forefathers.
HA I knew it, that new Sonic looks bad ass. Told you so!!!!
*please don't look back at my previous posts*
Leo that post you made was a masterpiece.
T_T
I have to disagree here Leo, the main criticism Matt gets, is him being to critical. Compare the reviews from the different IGN sections with each other. It is no secret that the Nintendo team is the most conservative with their grading. You can even compare Galaxy with GTA4 in text, their Galaxy review is more down to earth than the Oscar quality bullshit.
Also Matt has said on multiple occasions that he has a 360 and even told his listeners to buy it.The only preview hype I can remember is Zack and Wiki which was deserved. In his podcasts they are always critical of their impressions before a review. That are the positives stuff.
The negative part. The giving of vague hints always blow up in their faces. I personally take them as rumours, but many take them as facts. If they turned out to be false they look like idiots. They do it all the time, so they deserve a lynching there. Than their is the fact that Matt is a whiny little bitch. He always find things to complain about, I will not get into detail here. And sometimes he makes dumbass statements like: Wii can't do Normal maps, Wario Shake had bad animation, etc.
That's it, I'm going on a diet.
Have a good trip buddy! Make sure to show us all the pics on your blog here like Iga did of his new york trip.
Hope to chat soon.
I thought that example was pretty shitty that Kojima gave. I mean didn't sony show that PS3 demo of an environment changing and growing like a garden? Not only that you can do that sort of stuff on the gba if you want. Have several drawings of a tree, when you water it, it grows to stage 1, water it more and it goes to stage 2 and so on.
It actually looks........ good. I may even contemplate even.... buying it. He has a sword and it looks to me, better than unleashed. Why the hell don't they announce these games at E3 and at the nintendo conference? Stupid asses have ruined E3!
Fixed.
You are an animal. Stay Heavy.
It kills me how people are suddenly talking about him like he's on the level of Miyamoto, Kojima, and Mikami.
I really wouldn't agree that more powerful systems have more innovative games at all.
Fragile screens
They have more potential to, in my opinion. Especially in the kinds of games I want to play, since they get more of them. Either way, if Nintendo had a 360-esque system powering the Wii controller, I think it would have been taken to a higher level than it has at this point through more competition on the platform. And that's just control innovation, never mind what Miyamoto could do with 360's hardware among others.
