In the mens game, Nadal or Roddick to win. In the womens game, I've never heard of Zvonareva or Safina! where have they come from! Serena Williams is a man, whilst Dementieva is a great player and an absolute babe!! So Dementieva to win, and... ... new balls please!

Dead Rising is a cheap cash-in! So are they porting Dead Rising also because it sold less than they wanted it too on the 360? And about Zack and Wiki: According to vgchartz.com, Zack and Wiki has sold 0.54million, that's 540,000 copies. That doesn't seem too bad, but it's also a shame because it easily deserves to be a million seller. Seems it bombed in Japan, which is a bit surprising... USA: 350,000 copies Europe: 160,000 copies Japan: 30,000 copies But then I certainly can't remember any effort from Capcom to advertise this game! What with Wii sales as they are now, Capcom should have advertised the game in the run up to Christmas, like Sega did with Mario and Sonic despite the game already being around a year old!

Hmm... first 40secs or so... very dissapointing, wierd music etc... The rest was alright, though it didn't OMG WOW! me though, like I thought it would. Some great looking locations mind you!

Yeah I did see the latest movie, and yeah it was alright, but that was because it reminded me of watching turtles and because it had some great effects and scenes. This has just dissapointed me because [to me anyway], it doesn't look like they are putting much effort in. If you compare those character models to SSBB, they're worlds apart. I don't think developers have much of an excuse to produce a bad 2D fighter tbh, because all you are creating on a visual scale are character models and fighting stages; no vast open overworlds, huge levels etc... just flat 2D comfined arena's. Come on, look at SSBB, Soul Calibur, Street Fighter 4, or the updated Street Fighters on Xbox Live. This: Was when all I'd seen were zoomed out magazine scans and read that they wanted aspects to be better than brawl, that it would be its own visual style, and all the different modes etc... This was when I'd seen some actual screens. But hey, I guess I'm in the minority, and you're right maybe it is too early to judge. So bring on the first trailer and maybe all will be forgotten! Provided I can see through my own nostalgic goggles of watching a new TURLES!! game, to the real game underneath!

Yeah that's what I'm saying I would want from an anniversary game! And not that movie [at least like you say that would make it a bit more acceptable graphics wise], but it seems to be based directly off of the latest movie, TMNT [Turtles 4].

I'll reserve some judgement til I see it in motion, but that doesn't change the fact I think they could have done SO much more with this in terms of visual style. Come on FLink, you must see the potential this could of had as an aniversary game! Instead it looks to just be based off the recent movie [despite what they say].

No! This is Turtles!! and it deserves a good game! I fucking love those Heroes in their half shells!
-
O...M...G!! It all makes sense now!!

Yeah I was actually gonna post a youtube vid of the arcade game and say how they should have taken inspiration from that. A fantastically stylised 2D cel shaded beat'em up, drawing level design/character inspiration from the 80's cartoon; to make it a real tribute. And it could have had a 4-player co-op story mode just like the arcade game, or even just an updated port of the arcade game with current graphics, improved animation, difficulty etc...

Cheers! Broken Sword Get! -
Yeah I think it may have been some Australian rally or something.In his rallying debut last year or whenever, didn't he wrap it round a tree?!

If Marvel Films are really in some sort of fanancial trouble then they should rework their movie strategy. Otherwise how do they think they'll even begin being able to afford to produce a quality Avengers film, which will need to include a wealth of talented actors [meaning high paid] and mean having to combine a vast majority of difficult CGI techniques across an entire movie! I think they need to lengthen their movie timeline, I thought it was way too compact anyway... and [as that article says] in the long run it's probably worth paying out for really talented actors [e.g. Jackson + Rourke in Iron Man 2] to really make the films something special, so they do bring in great profits. Then they can use these to fund the other movies they have planned. Otherwise chances are Cap America, Thor, Avengers etc... are gonna have weaker casts and end up not of the recent Marvel quality. Nolans Batman has shown the importance of a talanted, diverse cast, and what a difference it can make!

Well the Arctic Lapland Rally recently finished and since Kimi was making his rallying debut I've been keeping an eye on it. Have been EXTREMELY impressed by Kimi, considering he was driving a Fiat Grande Punto and Hakkinen a Mutsubushi Evo!... Apparantely Heikki Kovalainen didn't get Ron's permission to take part! Some thoughts from others involved... - Häkkinen said he was very suprised about Kimi's speed because experience means a lot in rallying. - Tommi Makkinen said, its very rare for someone to come in and do so well at their first attempt. - Kimi's co-driver [Kaj Lindstrom] said Kimi was fantastic, didn't spin nor didn't outbrake himself and said it was unbelievable result for a first-timer.

How about going quite surreal and creating a landscape 'kingdom' that you are looking out across, but the landforms and anything else you choose to include are constructed from the shapes you can create from an ear.... You can get quite a lot of interesting shapes once you break it down, turn them sideways, upside-down, flip them, elongate them etc... I had a quick play around and to me I can see, the first is just a simple hill, the second to me loks like a hill with clouds passing over and around it, with maybe a rising sun, the third could be a boulder/cloud, and the last, the same hill with a path leading up it.... I'm sure there are more possibilities if you rotate and flip other ways. And you could create butterflies/birds with ears for wings. So that could be your 'land' and then in the foreground you could have your characters. That's probably the path I'd go down anyways...!

Post the poem, see if we can spark any ideas.

Are there any plans/rumours for a future Deadpool movie?

I really annoys me when you read quotes from Ubisoft about how they want this game to better SSBB, and new quotes like these... If they really cared about paying tribute to 25 years of Turtles, they'd put some fucking effort in!... They don't care, they're just cashing in on the anniversary year.
-
I was gonna post the exact same thing [until I just got to your post]! They are just the movie models and in a very poor resolution! It looks as if it was a PSP game being ported to Wii.
-
AWESOME!! So guess the plans for the movie has turned into this two-part special. Looking forward to it!

I wasn't being sarcastic, it's an enjoyable fun film that I like to see every now and again. And yes, it knocks War of the Worlds out of the park!

How dare you talk about Independance Day like that!... now go to your room!
