Lord Lucan has been sighted more than this "game" and it was destined to be a hype-overdose along the lines of "Snakes on a plane" (internet geek salivation, naff film) rather than any worthwhile effort and the fact that this vapourware has allegedly been pulled proves this. It either never existed or they decided they couldn't come up with a decent idea of what it was supposed to do. Very nice arty-design but it was always looking unlikely.

Dunno about mine. Waiting for all the Nintendo biggies but my Wii collection is currently running at about 16 games and I have hardly played on some of them so. Got HeatSeeker and DragonBallZ this weekend so those two can keep me going for a few weeks.

The XBox 360 is a decent enough console and Gears of War looks and plays well but my Wii gets far more use and at the moment, after the huge disappointment that was Crackdown, I'm using my 360 to play my way through Halo 1 & 2 more than any new "HD" game. Thee 360 may be more impressive (powerful, better online etc) but, for me at least, the Wii is far more fun.

Enjoyable and interesting control system. Currently tying with HeatSeeker for my gaming time.

Must be the Nintendo version of a Jedi Padawan practising his lightsaber technique. Isn't it going to be sad when by the time he's six or seven he'll be referring to the Wii as "retro" and "old school".

Virtual Console - All you need to know

It was worth reading whilst it lasted but the suspense will be pretty enjoyable....compared to the disappointment when it turns out not to have been worth the wait that particular week. -
I loved Twilight Princess too despite not being a huge fan although I still think that "LOZ: Wind Waker" was the most inspired looking game of the GCN/PS2/Xbox era. Excite Truck is great but short. Kororinpa is cool but samey.

Nozomi from "Shenmue"

Decent interview even though he does seem like somebody that would sooner be doing something else but, then again, the score composers are usually ignored in most media types. Ask most people to name a famous film score composer and chances are that only John Williams would occur more than once.

Jack Thompson makes a fool of himself....again
cheap-seats replied to Cube's topic in Nintendo Gaming
The guy is a laugh just like Mary Whitehouse was for years over here and the likes of the Catholic Church are when they attack Harry Potter books. At the same time though I'd still like to see a bit more variety from Rockstar. Thug-based games or table tennis. Hardly stretching the creativity boundry under the label name. -
Carry on. I can take it! :awesome: I may be a new member but I go back far enough to remember writing programs on my ZX81 (before the overheating keyboard melted my fingers) so I'm no gaming newbie. Anyway, I didn't mean to annoy anyone.

The N64 couldn't cope properly with OOT. That game looks brilliant in both stills and motion and will be tons of fun. And what exactly is the "fanbase"? I would have thought anybody that buys a Wii is part of the fanbase.

..going into the main website and following links. Worked for me.

Very impressive. The movies on IGN showed more "art" and "creativity" in a couple of minute clips than a certain Maxis developer could manage in his whole career. The game looks superb and I can't wait!
-
Far better than Monkey ball on the Wii and shows just how sensitive motion can be achieved using the wii-mote. Could have done with a bit more substance but it's great whilst it lasts...bit like Excite Truck!

It takes the best bits of Sonic Adventure, delivers great draw-distances and detail with the Wii graphics chip and plays well enough. Sonic in this "on the rails" game is firmly back on track.: peace:

1) LOZ: Wind Waker 2) Metroid Prime 3) Metroid Prime 2 4) Super Mario Sunshine 5) Pikmin 2 6) Animal Crossing 7) Rogue Leader 8) Resident Evil 4 9) Prince of Persia 10) Eternal Darkness * No particular order *

...it's a fun pick-up 'n' play game. Graphics are impressive enough, control is responsive and although the physics are from another dimension it's a really enjoyable game. It may be short but it's the sort of game you could just put on for a ten-minute blast here and there even after you've completed it. Worth the money!

I originally had a JPN/US-modded Indigo cube but I gave it (and a few decent games) to a friend for his young son's Christmas present. However, I really regretted getting rid of it so I've just bought a brand-new Pearl White Cube/Mario Soccer Pak from Amazon. I've no intention of opening it anytime soon as I can just use my Wii but I wanted a Cube again because it was a brilliant console let down (yet again!) by some poor Ninty marketing/decisions.

Which launch title did you like best and why?
cheap-seats replied to Slaggis's topic in Nintendo Gaming
Wii Sports is a great intro package whilst COD3 is quite impressive but Zelda is the first "killer app". I've always bought the Zelda games but they've never really gripped me but Twilight Princess has really drawn me in and I think a lot of that is down to the interactivity with the wii-mote and nunchuk. -
I still think it's a complete and utter joke that people have managed to send these controllers flying through TVs etc. I've not even come close to letting go of mine during games of Wii Sports, Zelda, Red Steel and Rayman. If I crash a car because I let go of the wheel does that make the manufacturer liable. I think not! The same is true here. Unless they ship them to me directly then I'm not going to look around for one.
