Re: Nintendo "Happy with Virtual Console Pricing"

Reala

I really don't see the problem with paying a tiny bit extra for an import, previously it would have cost a fortune, not to mention having to deal with region locking, if its an RPG in Japanese I'd leave it alone, puzzle and arcade titles though I would consider, remember they used to be pretty much for collectors only, the fact we can download and play them straight away is great, so much less hassle.

Re: Developer Allegedly Has DS2 Kit

@outrun2p

Hardly pointless, DS successor rumors have been around for a while, and is interesting enough to attract near 100 comments at time of typing, if people are concerned their DSi's will become obsolete sooner than they imagined, then I'm sure its of great interest to those people, as well as those wondering whether to buy a DSi now or wait for the next possible handheld, much more worthy than a review of Scarface IMO.

Re: DodoGo! Rolls Into View

Quirky puzzle games seem to be perfect for the DS & wii, thanks to their control methods, this one sounds like it could be pretty good, hope its good enough to stand out from the crowd.

Freedom of speech does not mean you can say what ever you want to here, people get edited and even banned for saying things which go against the rules here, like any other site or business you cannot just say as you please, freedom of speech doesn't cover such things.

Back on topic I expect we will hear more from whats confirmed, more teasers with not a lot of new content I'm guessing, most likely have to wait for E3 for that.

Re: The Grinder Gets a Release Date; Goes Multi-Platform

Reala

Hardly think going multi platform will make its fans boycott it, that's just silly, it makes sense to reach for a wider audience, and if that audience includes the other consoles then good luck to them, hardly an offensive act by going multi platform.

Re: THQ Announces de Blob Sequel for 2011

Reala

De Blob is a great platform game, though I did find it kind of repetitive, would finish a level then save, playing another level right away felt like a chore sometimes, hopefully they find a way to address the repetition in the sequel.

Re: Review: No More Heroes: Desperate Struggle (Wii)

Reala

I think lz's point may be the same as mine, in that a game may offer a similar set up, but have a very different feel, you might use mostly the same moves for example, but the structure of the level layout & how new enemies react, and any other additions can end up making them very different playing experiences.

Re: Review: No More Heroes: Desperate Struggle (Wii)

Reala

Sequels to games you like can also turn out poor, Shinobi X was a pretty average game compared to Shinobi 3, Streets of Rage 3 wasn't as good as 2 Genesis Golden Axe games got progressively worse IMO, even when the controls & objectives are the same or very similar, the overall experience can end up being surprisingly different, also vice versa applies too, wasn't a big Lost Winds fan but loved the sequel, weighing up reviews and doing a bit of research can make all the difference.

Re: DSiWare Dragon's Lair Hits US Next Week

Reala

Thought we saw the last of FMV games ages ago, oh well it seems to have its fans, but I'm steering well clear, learned all about FMV gaming with Mega CD, apart from Road Avenger they where all awful.

Re: Top 20 DSiWare Games in USA (23rd Oct)

Reala

out of that entire list only DQW really interests me, nintendo should seperate apps from games and have 2 lists, not likely though, took wiiware a while before it had a decent library, so early days yet for DSIware.

Re: Spirit Tracks "Pushes DS Even Further" Than Prequel

Reala

PH may not be my favorite Zelda game, but I still enjoyed it a lot, and can't wait to play ST, much prefer walking to each town & dungeon by foot, than by mini game though, which is what the sailing parts felt like, and no doubt the train will be the same, still can't wait to see what they do next with the stylus controls.

Re: First Impressions: Rabbids Go Home

Reala

Rayman is the only series of party games that actually interest me, not a fan of the genre but still enjoy Rayman for some reason, they just put more effort in I guess,.
