What exclusives does the 360 have that are actually worth getting? I've played Halo and it's extremely uninteresting to me. Okay, there's Gears of War, I'll give you that one, but other than that what do they have that isn't already on PS3 and/or PC? Plus, you have to pay to play online? Screw that.

I've been lurking every now and then. I don't know what happened to all the other oldies, but since most everyone left I haven't been on the forums.

Wow, really? I'm surprised so many people hated this game. I liked it a lot. Actually, one of the first video reviews I did was for Geist.

Some of those gamepad features sound pretty cool, but I think I'll wait for the next one, if at all, since the first iteration on a new console usually sucks.

I hope they bring the first one to the WiiU as well. I hate the idea of having a sequel on a separate console, like buying Bioshock on the 360 and Bioshock 2 on PS3

Doom 3? Isn't that game like 10 years old now?

That's basically already been done in a game called Zombie Panic! Source for Steam.

@KatoStudios
"Developers have said..." all sorts of things throughout the years exaggerating the actual performance and quality of their upcoming games, so that doesn't necessarily mean anything.

All the fresh ideas I see from this game are as a result of the new controller innovations, and not actually as a result of a fresh game. Sure it looks like it could be fun, but it's nothing we haven't seen before. Quite frankly it looks like another Red Steel to me. That game was decent, but nothing special, and certainly a disappointment to most people who bought it on launch day.

I'm surprised so many people are crazy about this game. Looks pretty typical and kind of boring to me. Also, the graphics are pretty sub-par, even if this were a current gen game.

I don't think there would be nearly so much "bashing" of MS2 if not for this game. It's hard not to fault MS2 for all its...faults, when MSX improved on nearly everything MS2 had to offer.

Sweeeeeet. Phantom is one of my obsessions.

I'm confused how this works...that means one person could buy one license and Gamestop just keeps reselling to new people at the same price, as there is no incentive to buy "new" digital copies anymore. How do the developers make ANYTHING?

Super freaking stoked. Especially the soundtrack CD. More games need to come with those.

There's a disappointing lack of pictures of James in pigtails on this page...

Best tagline for an NL article ever.

If more people knew about Fi before the game was released, I'm sure that number would be even less. Fi automatically keeps the game from being anything more than an 8, imo.

That sounds pretty awesome. I may have to pick this game up, regardless of how good it is.

too bad no one actually uses Google+...

What? Why are there two dates in Phoenix, when the number of locations is already very small? That reduces the chances of it being near me even more.

@Spookybif
Lots of people. Pretty much EVERYONE has a Wii now. Not everyone has the internet, and many less care to hook up their Wii online.

Wow, those are...odd, to say the least. Surely don't look like they belong in Zelda.

Freaking. Yes.

I've always wanted to go to one of these video game concert events, but it would probably just piss me off, since the majority of people don't seem to grasp concert etiquette for an orchestra setting.

I remember seeing a trailer for the original, but I didn't hear much outside of it. It seemed kind of mediocre.

Alright. I take back what I said about being unsure about the music in this game without Koji. It sounds amazing so far. Also, the visual style is FINALLY starting to grow on me. Not even Windwaker turned me off this much.

Ugh, I can't decide whether to watch and spoil the experience or soak up everything I can about the new Zelda!

I like the first idea. The second one...not so much.

my thoughts exactly ^^

Aw, when I first read the description, I though they were adding more vehicles to the game. It's just the same old stuff. Which is still good, don't get me wrong.

Wait...so is that pronounced "crushed" or "Crush 3D?" because I totally read it as "crushed"

Well, that was...anti-climactic.

"Wii redesign unveiled here!"_{...oh, look, it's a Wii. On its side. Without Gamecube ports.}

Software sells hardware. 3DS has no software. There are like 3 games actually worth buying right now, and it's pretty sad that the best game out for the system is almost 15 years old. Even NL's list of games worth buying before Super Mario isn't too great. Another remake of an even older N64 game, and a couple fairly obscure niche titles. The 3DS will absolutely fail if we don't get any games worthy of the system. It has potential, but no one is buying a $250/180 system just to look at a pretty 3D menu screen and play 20-year-old games.

Holy balls, $100 for a pair of shoes? Shoes that won't last that long, at that? No thanks.

I personally liked this one better than the first, but maybe that's just because I played this one before the original Metroid Prime.

greatest tagline ever.

I'm still not a fan of the artstyle, but that may change when I finally play this game. Windwaker was cool, but...ugh. I can't stand the way this game looks right now.

I remember when the Cosmos soundtrack came out, and it wasn't that great, but, hey, it's free music, so I'll give it a try.

Aw, I was looking forward to this one, too...I still might pick it up.

Lol, 00:01 spent on multiplayer.

Always on the lookout for more video game music/remixes. Thanks for this! Even if I hate hip-hop...

I got excited because the picture was FFXIII, and you dashed my expectations.

@WaltzElf
YES. I have spent time thinking about that, and...I can't figure it out. If we're not getting in in NA, just tell us. Don't give give us non-answers and screw around with everyone by saying "never say never"--just tell us, "never." And, please, most of all, tell us why. Is it because it won't sell? Because that's bullcrap. If we don't get the game in NA, it's not the end of the world, but I want a legitimate reason for this. It's not even about these three games, for me. These three games represent the kind of games we as gamers have been wanting on the Wii, and Nintendo refuses to give them to us. For what reason? Because hardcore games don't sell on Wii? That's mostly due to the fact that you've drummed up your system to be the epitome of casual gaming. So, yes, maybe it's my fault that I bought the Wii in the first place, but the Wii has the games I want to play, Nintendo is just being stubborn about giving them to us.

Well, f*** you, too, Nintendo.

THAT. is. amazing. ^

I honestly don't think it's THAT big of a deal for these three games in particular, and I daresay most people don't, but it's the principle of the thing. Nintendo seems to think it can just abandon its fans when there are clearly decent core games out there, just waiting to be released.

@Jango
What? Isn't that how all you Brits speak?

I was a little late to the party, but I very quickly recorded a video on this, (right before this story was posted, coincidentally) to hopefully get the word out to more people.

Why does NA still get nothing!?

No way! I loved this game as a kid. Didn't expect to ever see it reviewed here.

It's a well-made video, but every time Link talked, I cringed.
