Re: EU VC Releases - 30th May - Samurai Shodown

DEMON212

It's already up

That's what I was saying to Bananiac

That I've done my best to avoid full lag, but still show some. I will do a few fights though for the cam to show it at its worst

Its just for the review, I wanted to show some footage, lol. I mean it's not as bad as I'm probably making out, but if you look at SFII Turbo and then this. You'll notice it.

Because I hadn't played a beat 'em up for a few days and straight away I noticed it.

It happened, I turned to my bro whom done likewise, then I made a coffee and started learning Oh Canada while I was waiting for it to start the action again XD

Re: EU VC Releases - 30th May - Samurai Shodown

DEMON212

Jon, don't you realise that almost all of the 56, 5 star & 78, 4 star titles suck?

They're not 1st party Ninty game so they automatically suck. The VC is terrible and our releases have been awful for months. We haven't recieved a good(=Ninty) game in months. I'm going to sell my Wii. Or just stop checking the VC weekly and go for one big dissapointment a month rather than 4-5.

XD

Bananiac, the VC version really lags. I've done a video review, but tried my best not to do the moves that make it lag as bad, and even then it's still noticeable in my vid. I think I'm going to record a few fights to truly show it off at its worst.

Re: Japanese WiiWare Tuesdays

DEMON212

Yeah, I agree. Because then DYC could be the feature Wii friendly flash game. Why pay 500 points when you can play it for free? However I'm in the camp of, why play it at all? lol

Re: Review: Dr. Mario Online RX

DEMON212

Agreed.

IMO it's a good review that tells me everything I'd want to know. After reading it I know it's not something I'd buy, and the only reason I have it, is that it was a gift. After playing it, I personally think a 7 is probably being a lil generous, but not by much at all, and 1,000 is too pricey for what you're getting.

Make this 700 and PoP 500 and I'd have been happier. Although Toki Tori I'd have payed a 1,000 easily. FFCCMLAAK is priced appropriately IMO, but some of the content is a bit dodgy. 200 points for 2 constumes, which have to be activated EVERY time you switch the game on, is a lil bit of a joke.

Anywho, now I'm going off topic again, so I'll leave by saying, once again, good review, I look forward to your next

Re: Hudson Interview - Alien Crush, Bomberman, Tetris, Blue Oasis

DEMON212

Really wish I'd posted what I wanted to yesterday. Because of all the exclusive interviews I was going to post how impressed I was and then say "Who's next, Hudson Soft?".

ESP!

Liking what I'm reading though, however worried that not once did I see the words "Classic Controller" Wii Remote has killed many a game, don't let it claim these!

Re: Review: Toki Tori

DEMON212

Cool 8)

Well, I'm done (Actually I've still got the news to write up, but there's not much). Totally agree with the review, IMO it's one of your best Drake and IMO this is the best WW game out. Although FFCCMLAAK is VERY addictive, lol.

My review looks crap after reading this, but I'm always worried that if I say the music's great that someone will leap at me, so I try to cater to both by saying "It's basic but it's still very good". And the same goes for graphics, because I can't stand getting barraged from graphic Fanboys.

However when it comes to the pointer and the post card, I left it out because the 2p feels like filler to me and the post card thing is a great surprise

Still though, mint review and an even better game

Re: Review: Toki Tori

DEMON212

Sorry, don't have time to read all the comments, very busy with VCR/WWW Pod Cast duties, just want to know...

So do Two Tribes hold the rights to Eggbert? If so... The VC's getting MSK titles

Re: Review: Dr. Mario Online RX

DEMON212

As I've just had to condense this for a Pod Cast, I can now say that I fail to see why this is a bad review. I thought it was a very good review and you mentioned everything that was important (Demo sending, 4 player co-op for Germ, the gameplay and how it works, the new modes and old ones, all of the extra options etc...). It was a bit long for my liking, but still, you done a good job

Personally though I find the game pretty dull and boring and I never seem to play more than 1 game at a time. I've never been a Dr. M fan, but this is better than I expected. I would like to say though, how I have the game and didn't know that it had 4p co-op, as in the game menu's, it's not advertised ANYWEHRE! The only way to find out is in the operations guide which requires you to connect to the net and therefore exit your game in order to read them.

I'm LMAO though at the comments comparing reviews. Because last time I checked, my man Drake reviewed Toki, not Sammy. So of course they're going to be different, as all reviews are, are peoples opinions. So one reviewer will be A LOT different compared to another. Including how he/she rates games, what they rate them on and why. And that goes doubly for sites. Comparing the VCR to the WWW is hilarious. That's like comparing Wii controls to SIXAXIS or Blu Ray to Beta Max. Or Gorgonzola to Mozzarella.

Man, it gets worse, the comments stating how old games shouldn't have been rated as high as new ones because they don't have online play.

LMAO XD

I'm gonna have to leave before I bust a gut. Because I've still got Toki to condense, I really hope that the review is identacle to this one, oh wait, they're by different people so of course they're not going to be LMAO XD

Re: Review: Critter Round-Up

DEMON212

Ah, I was about to say typical, the review finally goes up AFTER I review SSR for the Cast, but now that I've seen the score, I don't think I'll complain, lol.

Re: Review: Star Soldier R

DEMON212

No idea if I'm still 1st in the U.K with over 800,000 in the 2 min mode. Haven't played it in a while, to busy writing these reviews up for a Pod cast, lol.

Another good review Corb

Re: WiiWare Launches In Europe

DEMON212

Lol, hopefully. Although I'm more worried about the rumours I'm hearing about guys like me being cancelled from YT because of copyrights acts.

Anywho, after crashing and taking forever to upload, my FFCC review

T.V Show King later

Re: Review: Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King

DEMON212

Well now thta the game's launched here, all I'll say is WOW! And the content only costs 1,600 points. Because...

  1. Triple Race Pack - 800 Points - 2 Blocks Requires

That points up

  1. Lilty Hut - 300 Points - 1 Block Required
  2. Selkie Den - 300 Points - 1 Block Required
  3. Yuke Shack - 300 Points - 1 Block Required

Is the same as those points up

The reason they've seperated them, is for folks who only want or can afford 1 race. You don't need to buy those 4, as it doesn't let you. So the game costs 3,100 points overall, 3,200 if you buy them seperately. Which is why I now own the game, as I had 3,100 points left

Re: Pop

DEMON212

Ouch, just read the IGN review of this, they don't like it. But then again, IGN rarely like quality games anymore. So I'll still buy this I think.

But Nnooo, have you guys signed up to every site that's reviewed PoP? I spotted you on IGN too

I'd love to see more devs do that.

Re: Pop

DEMON212

After reading the review I think I'll get it, if my mates are willing to play it that is.

Because the single player sounds too basic for me to part with 700 of my points. But with multiplayer open to me, I would. So if I'm forced to play alone, I think 700 is too pricey for me by 2-300.

Re: Dr Mario WiiWare pulling a sickie?

DEMON212

YES! VC FTW

Although I'm going to have to get Star Soldier. People are bagdering the hell out of me about covering the launch. And from what we're getting, I really don't want to lol.

I hope we get PPL to at least make me feel better.

And to be fair, I'm gonna go bone up on SSR and Critters, and try and get me wanting them.

Re: Review: LostWinds

DEMON212

@Corbie's 1st comment.

No probs Corbie

@Second comment.

I've got used to the XBL:A and the PSN though, so I was hoping for the same calibur at least, especially because of how good the VC is.

Re: EU VC Releases - 16th May - Third Hanabi Festival Week

DEMON212

@Kawai.

My point was that Corbie done bone the FFCCMLAAK and SP reviews and reading them, it sounds like he thinks SP is a much better game.

As for the complaints about no DoRe or Gaiden or Earthbound or SMRPG. I reckon we'll get the lot in the next Hanabi, which if they want to do a 6 month thing, then it'll be November. If not, itn might just be September again.

Re: Review: LostWinds

DEMON212

Corbie, it's $10 to you, it's $15 to us. Although I don't doubt that it's better than most Wii titles. Yup, Drake told me that SSR wasn't complete, which is why I'm no longer getting it. It brings my list of wanted WW titles down to about 7. 5 I will pay almost anything for, 2 will have to be 500 points.

Yeah, the 2p does sound naff, but I'd still be happier if I mentioned it in the Pod Cast

As for a discount, it took XBL:A ages to do that. And when the PSN's done it, it's usually been that they put it up for cheap then increased the price. So I doubt we'll see it drop, unfortunately

And I'm the same as Knuckles, length only plays one part for me. But this just doesn't look like the type of thing I'd enjoy.

Possibly the 3 biggest things I look for is fun, challenge, and length.

BTW, great Parodier review, totally agree and I've only played it for 20 mins. I love the game
