I'm a lot more interested in it now.


Is the original FPS version now cancelled? If so, my interest in the game is completely gone. I don't play FPS too often, but this one really had me interested. It was something that looked different enough from everything else out there.  But now they've switched it to a genre that I haven't had any interest since. . . well . . . how long ago was SMASH TV out?

The only version that we know about so far that is for sure top-down is the Xbox 360 version, but this was posted earlier today:

High Voltage - The Grinder shares content across all platforms, announcements for Wii version coming soon

"We have not made any announcements on the Wii version at this time, but I expect us to do so soon.  I will say that all versions of the game will share a large portion of the content that we create." - David Pellas, High Voltage

Smash TV came out in 1990.

GC discs are simply mini-dvds nothing proprietary.  a lot of camcorders use them etc

 

Oh ok, I thought they were proprietary. Still though they were something that was compartively small to DVD's at the time and fit very well with Nintendo games ie. Nintendo doesn't use much speech or fmv's in their games.

Their systems and controllers always fit well with their games but they seem to care very little on other developer's desires.

They seem to cater to the wider demographic customer desires this gen though.

And I actually like the basics of their approach this gen, too bad for me no other third parties do. Sad

The fps must be cancelled. Smart of them not to release it on xbox though - that made no sense. Agree with you on the lack of interest though - it's the style for me as well. I might have checked out that animales game.

Molyneux - motion-control gaming is stressing devs out     

"All of this stuff is making all the designers sweat -- I've met lots of designers at GDC, and we're all very bleary-eyed at the moment because every rule we've got, we're having to throw away." - Peter Molyneux

All righty then. In that case I haven't cared about top down shooters for 2 decades.  Well done High Voltage.  If I ever find a time machine I will bring my 13 year old self to the future to enjoy this game.

i just ordered yakuza 3!  this brings the total of ps3 games i bought full price to ... three (out of a collection of over 30).  yakuza 3, demon's souls and blazblue.

just felt that i'd been so vocal about wanting sega to release this in the west that it would be hypocritical to wait for it to go hobo.  this way i will have the right to bitch if they try not to do a western release for part 4.

still looking forward to getting: uncharted 2, assassins creed 2, god of war III, darksiders, final fantasy etc at nice hobo bin prices

edit: make that 4 games.  i forgot street fighter IV
