You are just rewording the thing is said hobo 2!
Actually wrong. You have $35 you buy Overkill and Remake (Gamecube version) for $5 on ebay or something. There is no reason to buy the Wii version. There problem solved.
Yes, again we get back to the taste issue. See? Nothing to do with economics.
So I'm quite sad about Overlord 2. It started off well with an A- from 1up but most of the other reviews I've seen give it a 6.0, say that its more action orientated, didn't fix the problems of the first and might be worse than the first.
Dark Legend turned out okay, a 7.5 ish game most places, but they made it a breeze to walk through with no challenge. Damn.
Yeah too bad about Overlord 2. I'll probably just rent it for now. Depending on how much I like the game I may purchase it later when it's on sale. I have way too many other games to get right now anyways. I'll be grabbing Blazblue either tomorrow or Friday then The King of Fighters XII then Gears of War 2: Dark Corners at the end of this month.
Presenting E204, which contains Edge’s review of E3 2009 and the technology that will define the next generation of games, due in UK shops on July 3.
Subscribers are receiving their copies right now, featuring a spectacular alternative cover of No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle. We visited Tokyo-based Grasshopper Manufacture to talk with Suda 51 about his plan for Travis Touchdown’s return and the game’s future on Wii.
The bulk of the magazine features in-depth reports on the games of E3, though, along with an interview with Peter Molyneux about Milo And Kate, the Natal-powered game that puts his comment to us in our E200 feature about what games would look like in 2016 into perspective. “I think there’s going to be a new franchise, and that franchise will redefine the way we play computer games,” he told us, and perhaps Milo And Kate is what he was talking about.
Elsewhere, we meet Brutal Legend and Day Of The Tentacle creator Tim Schafer to talk about his history and future in videogames, Tigon Studios’ Ian Stevens to talk about the problem with licensed games and the creators of iPhone game favourite Zen Bound.

"It's like taking a shit," says Goichi Suda, Grasshopper Manafacture CEO, as he relaxes on his (office) seat. We blink first. "A lot of things influenced No More Heroes - things I saw, or heard, and something that came from inside. Something that needed to be eliminated from my body, like waste. That's why I created No More Heroes.
Edge goes on to write about how his colleagues are smirking and his translator becomes hesitant. "...No More Heroes 2? New taking-a-shit."
Suda claims the AI has been improved and enemies will now attack depending on their class and weapon, being ranged or more up in your face. They say the dual beam katana is pretty and the animation is suitably awesome with "effortless style". "It's a spectacle as much as a slaughter."
On secondary playable characters: They'll each have their own style and cool factor. Will Travis be overshadowed? Hardly. "He gets to pilot a giant robot! This lets you fight on a larger scale - there will be plenty more variety as well."
The game's city has been scaled back a little bit, improved visually with motion blue and HDR lighting. Suda says it's closer to the game he wanted to deliver originally. Edge says the city is a lot more lively and the streets more populated. He describes it as one-and-a-half times the original.
Regarding mini games: "The reason that I put these elements in is that it's a challenge to make a game," says Suda, "and so I want too make the player feel challenges to even play the game... Travis has to work..." it's a principle that, according to Suda, permeates his games.
On No More Heroes as a franchise: "I think this is the last NMH that is going to be developed on Wii. To expand NMH to new possibilities, we need a new platform. Wii is a great platform, but we've done everything we can with it now."
Oh, maybe Suda was talking about that elusive WiiHD.
He wants to work on Natal, check the japan E3 story I posted.
I hope NMH2 is a cool game. If it's still a fun but deeply flawed experience then no, he hasn't done all he can on that system. If it has a city as detailed and enjoyable as GTA with combat and graphics better than Ninja Gaiden Black, then yeah, move on. If he puts out another technically flawed game with copious job tedium with muddy graphics and frame drops then, Christ, you haven't done all you can do SUDA.
I'm a little dubious on how well he can do motion controls with Natal or the PS3 controller. In NMH it's basic control with a single gestural swipe at the end. Despite Motionplus being announced a year ago, he still can't get decent support in NMH2. How is he going to go from that to full on 1:1 combat in a NMH game?
And with Natal specifically, how do you actually move in the game with no stick?
Speaking of 1:1 swordplay have you guys actually seen it in Wii Sports Resort? Not the one on one stadium fighting but the other mode. It has you moving about a chibi style fantasy landscape fighting enemies that come at you. It's on rails, but its a tantalising look at how the next Zelda could work.
Yes you do Steel, yes you do.
It's not a economic issue, because Archie buys a ton of games. If he wanted he could buy HoTDOK now!
But why does he not buy it, because he has tons of games he wants to buy first. This is a taste issue, he thinks other games are better for him.
Even if he had more money, he might still not buy it because he could still buy something else, or he simply has no time to play it because he would be swamped in games.
Don't come with a economic excuse if you buy tons of games. Even the ones that are not critically received!
Now you are arguing for the sake of arguing. Congratulations Archie, you are our first female member!
i think during E3 when asked about zelda, miyamoto said something like "think about Zelda while you're playing the fencing and archery games in sports resort", so yeah you are right there.

It is an economic issue because if he had any more money, he could afford to buy it, as well as the games that interest him more. Look! I can make broad assumptions as well!
But even if you were right (which you're not), and it all boiled down to taste, why are you arguing over such an issue? Why argue taste?
And that wipes away all hopes of expanding our audience to a female crowd.
guys calm down. let's play and let play. i don't think anyone is masochistic enough to buy games they would enjoy less over games they would enjoy more. iga buddy you need to take archie's word that he has the wii there to play nintendo games and resident evil games and everything else is very very low on his priority list even if he acknowledges the fact that he'd enjoy it if he had the money left to get it
