Well there are the Phoenix Wright games. Although it's old there is Ico. The combat in that was based off your feelings to protecting her. That game had horrible combat on it's own but with the emotion it worked. I do think there are too many games rated M, but that's not really related what he's saying.
Better graphics don't mean bad gameplay. Good graphics also can make a game better like music can. Yes gameplay is more important than graphics, but just because someone doesn't have as good of graphics or focus on them as much doesn't mean they have better graphics. People still differ-ate between good graphics only and bad gameplay and games with good gameplay. Bad games still are still disliked. Art style can be used very well and some Wii games looked a better because of some of them, but remember a realistic art style may be what fits some games and isn't necessarily worse than other art styles. I feel like some people use a games good graphics to say it's a bad game. There are games coming that lush new experiences in the next gen as well and not just more polygons. Look at drive club and maybe Knack.
I hope he didn't actually try to steal it. Rob would have a serial number or something to identify him. He posted online he would steal it so the police would have come to his house, saw the identification on him and taken rob and then take the guy to jail for burglary. The stupidity of him saying he was gonna steal it while planing to was astounding. I'm glad best buy preserved it though. It really shouldn't be recycled.
All of the rage here is complete unreasonable. He is just saying that he doesn't think it's worth it to port over to Nintendo and that they would need to do it themselves if they wanted the game. He's not asking them to port it and would be rather surprised if they did. No ego or pride in this tweet at all. The only people who are being ridiculous, unreasonable, and acting immature right now are the people insulting Phil for this comment.
I buy physical if possible. I like my collection and digital prices are often unreasonable compared to physical. I may make exceptions with PC only games on steam. I also buy CDs if the are easy enough to obtain and I want the entire album.
People seem to think you're automaticity wrong as if you think the DS's dual screens are a gimmick. I think some people are over reacting at that opinion. It may be an uncommon one and your welcome to disagree with it but I think people are overreacting a bit to it. I don't think it's a gimmick either by the way.
@Bankai You're right about people needing to debate against his points respectfully. He may have needed to calm down a little before he said this, but that's no excuse to be rude or disrespectful in return. A bunch of yelling wont do any good at all.
The man has a simple opinion which is fine, but I think it would have been better if had calmed down and dropped the profanity before he said it. I think it would have looked much better if he had.
@SMEXIZELDAMAN The U.S military (most militarys really) doesn't start any wars. War is declared upon a nation or politicians start it. Why should the men who valiantly fight for there country to protect its citizens not be reckonized for there service. Not giving medals would do nothing to stop war and simply not give the reckonition they deserve to the men who sacrifice so much or everything so you can be safe.
My brother is a Marine who has seen multiple deployments. Operating a Drone is not the same as being a grunt. The hardships and trauma as drone operator are not nearly as dramatic as that of a grunt's. This medal should definitely be downgraded.
$40 for the cartridge. Sounds pretty expensive but is only $2 more than the virtual console store per SNES game. I'm still not tempted though to drop $40 in a few SNES games though.
I don't see a character that's never been on a Nintendo system getting in SSB. Snake even had a GameCube game in his history and if you to want to dig deeper he had a Game Boy Color game and if you dig really deep I believe he had a NES game. They would need to make Super Meat Boy for Wii U at the minimum for meat boy to get and he would even qualify for a off the wall refrence then even. They are also wrong on the free part. It costs money to make a character in SSB. I also think they would develop for Nintendo if the money was there anyway.
He's not that old yet. He has been doing for a pretty long time too. He wil probably work on games till he can't. He just doesn't want to see Nintendo go through sow real trouble and also not have the games suffer from when that day comes.
No, absolutely not. Lego started to bore me a while ago. People say they are different enough but they feel similar enough to so they bore me greatly. I've played Lego: SW 1-2, Lego: IJ 2, Lego Batman, and Lego Harry Potter. They really feel similar and samey to me with different themes. I also don't see how COD ad stuff are brought for yearly releases when there are 2-3 Lego games a year. They have even had three announced Lego and unreleased Lego games at one point.
@3Dash @DestinyMan The other controll options may be just as bad if not worse than the to those people. The best alternative option is move with axby and target with the circle pad. Using a circle pad on the left would feel unatural and using axby to move is would not be fun at all. Why don't you try playing the game with axby for movement. The only good alternitive option would be the circle pad pro which only supports a circle pad for leftys and doesn't support dual circle pad contrill which is the only real alternative controll scheme thats good. Why can't accept that the controlls in that game might feel unaturtal and uncomftorable to some people.
P.S. I thought Uprising was a great game and used the controlls just fine.
I thought Skyward Sword was a great game and had pretty good controlls. I didn't get the be a swordman feeling at all though since I played Red Steel 2 and had to controll Skyward Sword's melee by flicking my wrist.
I'm in the crowd that likes Other M. I thought it was a good game. I thought the point the wiimote at the tv for first-person mechenic was an intresting idea. I also didn't dislike the story or Samus when I played it.
@DarkKirby Speak for yourself about Brawl being too "casual." I'm a hardcore (I don't mean the COD definition) gamer and thought Brawl was a vastly superior game to Melee.
@TheRealThanos If we are equals and there are no evil sharks than there can be no evil humans. There are sharks that eat their children and as pointed out before animals do horrible things to each other. If our lives are equal in value than they are also equaly worthless as well. Therefore the harming of animals can not be wrong at all and the concept of morallity is false. If are superior to animals on the other hand than we can have good and evil and there can be wrong mistreatment of animals. If we're are just animals on the top of the food chain then evil and good doesn't exist.
I don't play Assassins creed because its M but I don't like this idea. If I'm playing as an Assassin then I would like to be a male. I also feel like a female Assassins Creed protagonist wouldn't have the awesome that one of the male ones have just by walking in their hooded cloak as Avaline showed us. Also before you call me sexist I wasn't bothered at all by playing as a female in metroid and Mirrors Edge.
@soccer686 Your avatar is perfect for this article.
I dislike the idea of having to let other people in my single-player. It's called singleplayer for a reason. It's fine as an option but should never be forced. Also, the idea a singleplayer requiring you to be online is stupid as all get-out.
@AbeVigoda My bad, I was treating your comment as a general statement for characters, but my statement holds true with your response. Just because they aren't as versitile as Mario doesn't mean they aren't valuable or important. Sony has definitly made characters more important than Yoshi at the least. With your logic Yoshi is more iconic and important than Master Chief because he is only good for Halo FPS games. Your letting your love of Nintendo characters get in the way of obvious facts. There is no logical thought in saying Yoshi is a more important character than Nathan Drake.
@AbeVigoda Seriously, Sony's bid characters like Nathan Drake and Sly Cooper not being able to hold a candle to Yoshi. That is completely rediculous, your arguement against Sony's characters kind of completely lost its legitamcy with that statement. I sense Fanboyism here.
@Neram Um, there is some legititmitly earned fan support here. It's not shallow or empty I assure you.
@Slapshot Agreed about the comments so much. I can't tell you many times I've shake my head and face-palmed while reading the comments. Th sheer ignorance here is just hilarious. I can't believe how many people are getting so riled up about this.
There is a lot of overeaction here and ignorance of Sony exclusives. Sony Exclusives range beyond shooters you know. LittleBigPlanet and Sly Cooper are both platformers.The Ico and Shadow of the colosuss collevtion, heavy rain and Beyond: Two Souls are meaningful games (not sure what else to label them lol). Heck MLB the Show is sports exclusive. God of war is hack and slash series. Ni No Kuni is less Sony affiliated but a PS3 exclusive and it's an RPG. Also, Playstation Move is not a copy of the Wii.
Neat multiplayer idea, but what are they going to use the gamepad for on singleplayer? I think the PS3 version with cross buy/play is still more appealing than a feature that only applies to multiplayer though.
My bad it's $40 which is much better escially since it matches the PS3/360 prices. Still don't have any plans to pick it up soon but glad to see that all old ports aren't just gonna be $60. glad to
Brilliance. But come on, no girls (mother brain doesn't count). We had a lack last year too with only samus. Us guys need someone for valintines day too. Now I will have to be alone since my internet date plan failed.
I havn't seen it yet but I would absolutely love it if they could get Nathan drake in the sequel . Awsome would just be overflowing from that scene. I also want Sly Cooper in there.
Virtually everybody here who says they will boycott Ubisoft or the game will lose that stance after a little more living of life and they aren't feeling such anger anymore; and the very few people who do follow through are crazy.
You know something. I think that once everybody has cooled down, they not boycott Ubisoft and will still buy the game. I understand everybody's anger though and would probably be angry too if I had wanted the game. One reason Ubisoft might want the game to come out at the same time on all consoles is that price cut to $20-30 after 7 months Wii U game might not look good for the other consoles $60 games. (I'm not sure of that myself though, just a theory)
I think $60 is a rediculous price for an HD remake like this. The other remakes have included 2-3 games with sometime even 3D capabilities or have been substantially upgraded and tweaked like Halo CE and they cost $40 and that's what they should be. I'm pretty sure this will not be upgraded more than Halo CE was so why should this be priced like Zelda Wii U will be when it's an old game remade.
I personally don't think Bowser deserves 1# spot here at all. I would defiantly put hades in a better place than 50# and would probably give number one to Kessler, I actually kind if have a hard time calling him evil, Which is something that I love about him.
I'm not sure about changing the idea that I have to play alone. It might impact Zelda negatively if you ask me. I like the idea of making it less linear though, I would them to expand on the multiple choices for the conversation cause I really enjoyed that. "Duty or job?" I loved that moment. I also want more Zelda-Link romance as well.
