I like to set my own achievements or goals not ones the developer has given me. I actually turn off the achievement notifications because I feel they can really take you out of the experience for example if you are really immersed in a survival horror game like Deadspace.. that pop up cant totally kill the atmosphere or mood at a particular moment.
It makes completely no sense to me why this game is single player when there are clearly 4 main characters that they have shown. It makes me quite a bit worried about the Wii U's online capabilities. You and 3 of your friends clearing levels simultaneously online would be great fun. A big missed opportunity.
Why no mention of cross game chat? It looks like the skype type calling is outside of game... being able to voice chat with a group of friends while playing an online multiplayer game is a key feature and if this is not included it will set the Wii U behind the competition. Did you see a plug-in for a headset on the controllers?
Lets hope this rumor is true, I recently just picked up a 3DS and it is funny how I remember every dialog line from Star Fox 64, that game had a big influence on me growing up...
I never saw this coming.. but I just rented this game and for an on rails shooter wow its BAD!
I feel sorry for the people that have bought it. This game consists of way too many bad rail cinematics where you can't even shoot and you can't skip. On multiple occasions the rail movement will stop and there is no way to progress further so you have to restart the level. You will also see NPCs, enemies, objects and parts of the level load out of thin air. These gliches show me that there is a lack of polish to the game.
Like High Voltage Software with The Conduit, this developer tries too hard to make a "hardcore" game. They end up creating an outdated, none enjoyable experience, which ultimately shows that they fail to understand the Nintendo Wii and fail to take advantage of it's capabilities.
Not enough action, not enough polish, not scary, and overall not an enjoyable experience.
Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles > The House of the Dead: Overkill > Dead Space: Extraction
If you haven't spent any money on this interactive bad movie, don't, save it for RE: The Darkside Chronicles.
Yes I would agree with Metroid Prime Online Multiplayer for the next Nintendo console, it would be amazing ...like I said before I really enjoy playing Prime 2's multiplayer with 4 people.
Wow from that video the graphics, sound, and animations look better! ...but I buy VC games mainly for nostalgic reasons, and seeing how I never played this version I'll stick with the genesis version.
Ok quick question: Is there a better way to jump further? I loose a crazy amount of lives on the boat level trying to jump the last gap even using the jumping ninjutsu and double jumping...
**Update** So I traded in my old Prime games and bought the Trilogy, and yes it has the multiplayer from Prime 2. Still weird that on the box it says number of players "1"...
This game has a lot of potential, I'm still on the fence (ever so slightly). I'll read some reviews before purchasing. Short game length is my biggest worry.
@cr00mz Bomberman Blast was 8 players as well, that was a blast at parties. Just have your friends bring their controllers. A simple game like Driift looks like it would be great at parties for both the casual and veteran gamers.
