Good review Terra. I quite enjoyed this game TBH. Yes it was a departure for the series and at first I didn't like it.But once I'd adjusted to the gameplay I thought it was pretty good.Hopefully they will give us a proper SF game on 3DS though.Its been toooooo long!!
Yawn ...another FPS war game.Man I'm so bored of these games. Saying that it looks pretty decent and its not like there is a lot of this kind of game for Wii so it's nice for the people that like em.I'd be more intrested in this if it was On-Rails TBH. I loves me a good on-rails,though i'd rather be blastin aliens than stereo typical terrorists.
Hmmm.Still not convinced. I really don't like the cut scenes (why not use the in-game engine ) and the contol scheme sounds odd. Still I'll probably give this a whirl if it gets decent reviews.Who's doing the NL review, I assume its not Prosody ahem ..I mean Mr.James Newton esq.
Nice review Dazza.Brings back memories of staring at images of this in magazines as a kid thinking that the graphics were the best I'd ever seen. Never did get to play it and probably never will now...shame sounds cool.
Nice review Terra. I quite like this game .I have to agree with @1 in that it is far from the best SCHUMPS out there.But it was quite enjoyable nontheless.If you only own a DS then this or its sequel are really the best available (well Bangai-O spirits ,but thats a different beast all together )
North America!!!! Boooooooo.. ;-( Come on guys its been ages since the last European competition I wants me some goodies How about some more Cave Story remotes, those things were awesome!
'People Will Know When Metroid: Other M Arrives' cause they'll hear the letterbox go . Looking forward to this despite reservations about some of the design choices. And thank the lord, Nintendo is finally realising the importance of advertising its games,Hallelujah!! The difference between this gen and last in terms of marketing is unbelievable. Actually seeing a Nintendo TV advert used to be as rare as rocking horse s**t here in the UK and now there everywhere, sure those 'Family' ads (also see:Ant & Dec etc) suck big time ,but they serve a purpose and fund Nintendo's developers to create more awesome games.
My God!! I found this game tough.Its true that you go back for more,but damn,it takes some mastering and some foul language!! Awesome game though,I do wish that they would have made the EASY setting a bit easier for noobs like me ,I will never complete this game and thats sad
In HOTD:OK you can shake the remote to reload but you can also just press the A button.Also if you fire while your clip is empty it auto reloads so it dosen't cause a problem. Shame about this game as I have just purchased a Nyko Perfect Shot.Thought this looked promising but looks like I'll have to play HOTD again!!
Gotta get one of those.Looks awesome. Who cares about needing 100's of batteries when it looks as cool as that. I like the rubber grips too,hope its well built.Will NL be reviewing it?
Seriously I'm gonna have to rob a bank to afford all these amazing games being announced!! I hope they spread the release dates a bit. This game looks fantastic.Love the art style.
@Corbie. Can you ask em' if it has gamecube controller support please? That looks like an absolute ball ache to play IMO.No thanks. Glad to see they have found their colourful crayons again though I'm not sold on the style either ,looks to much like a mish mash trying to please both sets of fans (TP/WW).
Money / (This + Kirbys fun pak + some of the good stuff) = Friday night fun. Excellent review Sean , you should be on commision as I can't not get it after reading that. They are keeping you busy at the moment hey?
@2._Croz Awesome idea man, if they included Castle of Illusion with it I would buy it instantly regardless of the main games quality. Absolutley loved that game when I was young . This game has a lot of potential and I'm glad they are moving closer to the concept art as that looked freakin ace. Fallout + Disney = WIN.I'm afraid if there is to be an HD version then I'll likely buy that though,gonna look amazing in High def.
OOOOhh.I like the look of that,great style.Might have to download this on my ipod seeing has how my DS is 'i' less mind you it'll probably be cheaper that way anyhow .Not heard of this one,thanks for the heads up.
ARGHH!! Why must they tease us so?!!! I don't even know why I'm getting excited after the dissapointing (IMO) Twilight Princess................but I am.
Not sure that this is gonna be enough to make this one sell as well as it probably deserves,but its a nice gesture I suppose (although it would have been better if they had let you download the VC game for free )
@Betagam7 Your absolutley right. There is no reason why we shouldn't have 60Hz versions of these games.It ridiculous in this day and age. Since getting my LCD tv recently with components this is really starting to bug me (it did b4 but even more so now).Also it would be nice if we seen a few sales now and then and would definetly make me buy more VC games. Won't happen though,even though every other download service has sales now and then
Its good to see Wii games doing well,though it would be nice if some 3rd party efforts were doing as well! I'm afraid to say that the issue with piracy is definetly effecting DS sales.Nearly everyone I know has an R4.I'm always trying to get them to see the error of their ways but alas it seems as though free stuff with seemingly no retribution is too good a combination to turn down,even for ,normally, law abiding people. I'm sure it has effect on Wii software sales to to a lesser extent too. Its a shame but it is nothing new. Hands up anyone who didn't pay for Commodore Amiga and 64 games back in the day . I'm a totally reformed character now though ,as a kid it didn't occur to me I was doing anything wrong
