Mikey Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 Cult classics. I liked what they said about Wind Waker and Luigi's Mansion having graphics which will never age. So true. All developers should make games on the Wii which have graphics that are designed around the console's strengths.
Guest Jordan Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 Luigi's Mansion is an amazing looking game, even today
darksnowman Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 I had a read at this, don't worry. I was surprised to find that F-Zero GX is considered a cult game? Well, thinking about it I guess it isn't that mainstream so by default it must be niche/ cult. And its one of my favourite series! They hit the nail on the head with that comment on Wind Waker and Luigi's Mansions graphics.
Jonnas Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 -F-Zero GX really is/was excellent. If only it had a better multiplayer mode... -The comment about WW's graphics is spot-on -Skies of Arcadia is the best game on that list. Go play it as soon as possible. Hmmm, I considered buying Bloody Roar at one time. Of course, I can't find it anywhere nowadays. Was it good?
blender Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 Ribbit King was the only game I had really never heard of on that list. It sounds like monkeyball with frogs. I wonder why out of sports games golf is particalularly subject to fantasy universes. hmm
Strange Cookie Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 Ah, how that list takes me back... Luigi's Mansion... Still one of my favourites. And one of the catchiest tunes, bar the original Mario-theme. Hmmm, I considered buying Bloody Roar at one time. Of course, I can't find it anywhere nowadays. Was it good? It was surprisingly decent, actually. I never gave a thought about buying it, until I go to play it in a store. The fighting can be cheap once you discover certain tricks to exploit, but altogether, this was a good, if perhaps unexeptional fighting game. It didn't set the genre of fire, but it atleast made it proud!
mcj metroid Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 I dont like that list. Where's second sight? they are trying ti stick to cube exclusives even if ribbit king was also released on ps2. second sight was multi=platform
dwarf Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 they are trying ti stick to cube exclusives even if ribbit king was also released on ps2. second sight was multi=platform You'd agree that its certainly overlooked? Thing is practically all who played it gave it great press, yet no-one went for it. You find it on the shelves everywhere for a few quid.
mcj metroid Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 well i had never played the game but the games they have picked seem to be gamecube exclusive.....mostly..otherwise they could say viewtiful joe or something.
Deathjam Posted March 19, 2008 Posted March 19, 2008 You'd agree that its certainly overlooked? Thing is practically all who played it gave it great press, yet no-one went for it. You find it on the shelves everywhere for a few quid. Psi-ops was released (on the PS2) at the same time and was similar in that it made use of psychic powers, but different in that it was more action focused so I think more people went for it instead. EDIT: Me included :P
