What is that?!

Star Fox?

I hope so!

If it's StarFox I hope it's a different take on it, maybe fully 3D space faring with dog fights and capital ships or something, like furry Star Wars/Rogue Squadron (but maybe free roaming, not strictly mission based). Sin & Punishment 2 is going to be very hard to surpass as far as rail shooters go, they should explore less treaded genres. Not another attempt at a Zelda clone though. And with as little story as possible, I find the characters' design to be some of the worst Nintendo has ever deviced, I would never take them seriously. Or funnily. Or anything other than horrible. Maybe they should just make them all humans and give them animal codes/badges.

I just want Star Fox 64 2.

Mind blown. Every game on the Wii should look that good, holy crap.

Lost and the Damned is done, very good, but missions were a bit simplistic. I expect more from Gay Tony.

I started playing this last night. Funny, but the engine doesn't seem so good. Lots of pop up and the framerate continually chugs. Love the bikers though, the implied and shown violence and gang dynamics. Feels good to be playing GTA again. I only did the first mission.

Because for an hour before I was playing the Cel Shaded Prince of Persia. Which should have had the subtitle: The Automated Prince.

I thought I would love the graphics because I like cel shading. But it's so detailed it loses the cel shaded effect What is the point of doing cel-shading if it doesn't enhace the art/comic book look of a game? And the gameplay, is it impossible to die? Elrika or whatever her name is auto-saves you from every fall. She shows the way with a ball of magic. And the prince does most of the moves automatically for you. And the game is constantly telling you what to do and what button to press. Does this ever end?

I can see why this game didn't do as well as expected.

Then I kicked on Bully 360. I had already played it on Wii and wanted to play it again with crisp-o vision. Only the 360 version runs like crap, the framerate chugs, there is pop up, you can't invert the camera controls. Oh and there are graphical glitches here and there. Also the classes are much more fun on Wii with motion controls, as is the combat. What a waste of money.

Looks like Alan Wake is not lighting the world on fire with its reviews. Still getting great reviews but for such a long wait I expected something really special. Still sounds like a good game. GG I read in a review that it was 14 hours long.

I saw another review that said it was 10 hrs long. So we have 6 hours, 10 hrs and 14 hrs. Are they playing the same game?

Also, just wanted to say something about Modnation Racers.

Just thought it was funny how some Sony aficionados like Carnage and others at GS who hates and criticizes Mario Kart has already pre-ordered and are excited about Modnation Racers!

Retros next Metroid?

You mean two of those. Xenoblade = Monado

And yes dude, in game, it's not THAT good, and there are the fugly characters and wonky animation too (the concept art for them is ugly too, though they could have done better). If we had scenery as good as this and characters/monsters as good as MH3 it'd be the best looking Wii game after Galaxy. Maybe The Last Story will come close, though the environments will probably not be as imaginative, such awesome horizons in that trailer, and to know that you can probably seamlessly go see all of what's in the horizon up close, wow. Even with a shit story and battles this will be totally worth going through just for the amazing vistas. But I'm sure those won't be so bad either!

Shame the video is LQ. There are a lot of bad textures there but the scale more than makes up for it.
