Posted August 19, 2008 IGN have an interview up: http://uk.wii.ign.com/articles/899/899925p1.html Thanks for the link, there's a few small interesting bits of info there. ^^ IGN: How many enemies are you able to show on-screen at any given time? Neil: I can't put a specific number on that at the moment because work is still going into level design and a lot will be influenced by game balancing and pacing. I would say again that we have an incredibly accomplished team at Headstrong who really know this hardware, so we'll be pushing it for all it's worth. We did take a look at some screens of a certain other zombie game that is being ported to Wii, and the general consensus was that we thought we could certainly do better. OooOoooooooo, contriversal! :p Seriously though, if they can get more zombies on-screen than in Dead Rising, that'd be a fantastic achivement! They've already done a better job in the graphics department... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 19, 2008 This game is going to be made of win! First Samba de Amigo, then Madworld, and now this! SEGA is quickly turning into my favorite publisher on the system! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 19, 2008 This is actually awesome news. I was skeptical at first but to know it's been in development for quite some time is just the cherry on the top; nothing worse than rushed games to capatilise on the Wii's success. This, Conduit and Madworld...Nice to see more 3rd party support (FINALLY). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 19, 2008 I'm liking the look of this. I'm wishing more for other Sega franchises to appear on the Wii though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 19, 2008 thats a pretty god damn impressive trailer. and its a good looking game too. im tempted! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 19, 2008 am i going to be the first skeptic about this ? yes it could end up being very good but it's like the wii is so starving for games we're hyping these up to be killer titles if this was on the 360 or ps3 nobody would care:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 19, 2008 mcj_metroid, yeah, i think you're right. I got so bored out of Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles, this will be as boring/even more boring. In fact, if my memory isn't tricking me, most of the users who are now "Hooray" didn't like RE:UC, but maybe that's just my tricky memory. Anyways, this looks like another Light Gun game, which i hate after playing RE:UC :\ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Admittedly, I've only played the Wii HotD compilation at my mates, and it's an experience that's worth remembering. You know, the kind of suck that's actually fun to endure. RE:UC was pretty good once I configured the zapper right That + grindhouse + zombie dismemberment= pure win 1337age and such for me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 20, 2008 I love light gun games and I love it that Wii is bringing them back. UC was a little different with a slower pace, but it was good. This seems more like the fast old school arcade type. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 20, 2008 I love light gun games and I love it that Wii is bringing them back. UC was a little different with a slower pace, but it was good. This seems more like the fast old school arcade type. Yeah, I also love classic lightgun games. You dont really have to think, you can just point and blast the hell out of enemies! They are so much fun to play and I love how they are fast paced, which is probably why I couldnt get on with R Evil:UC as it was too different for me. Im still hoping for a Virtua Cop collection from Sega. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 20, 2008 It's a game that appeals to the hardcore but is also accessible to the casual gamer. I think judgement should be reserved until more is revealed but it's not off to a bad start. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 22, 2008 I got one fracking awesome press pack this morning from SEGA. http://n-europe.com/news.php?nid=12226 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 23, 2008 Did you get a testing job at Sega, Jamba? If so, congratulations! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 23, 2008 Did you get a testing job at Sega, Jamba? If so, congratulations! Yes I did Sega's line up is looking pretty damn good atm. I don't think that I could have chosen a better company to be testing for at this point in time. But yeah, I'm gonna be one extremely smug yet VERY broke fella for about 3 months.

But yeah, I'm gonna be one extremely smug yet VERY broke fella for about 3 months. Awesome stuff. : peace: Did they give you the AWESOME House of the Dead stuff that I got? And I take it this means you get to test MadWorld. :awesome: Any other unannounced titles that they're testing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 23, 2008 Yes I did Welcome on board! Which office are you based at? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I take it this means you get to test MadWorld. :awesome: Any other unannounced titles that they're testing? Nah I don't have any stuff and I have no idea what I'm going to be assigned to. But lets face it, looking at Sega's line up, it's gonna be AWESOME. I'm surprised that they are basically becoming Kuju's publisher too. Welcome on board! Which office are you based at? Oh hey! I'm testing so I'm down at the Chiswick office. You? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 23, 2008 That's great Jamba, I'm guessing you're pretty psyched. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 24, 2008 Oh hey! I'm testing so I'm down at the Chiswick office. You? I thought as much, we do occasionally have some up where I am at the main office by Kew Bridge. Are you just there on a temporary basis then? When are you starting? Plans to get into the industry full time or do you have something else planned for afterwards?

Posted August 24, 2008 Not really the "Hardcore game we've been waiting for", but still, seems to be a great addition to the Wii library. The style of the trailer feels like the fake "Machete" trailer in Planet Terror. which is great. Let's just hope the gameplay'll be good, because the third game for the Xbox got dirt poor reviews.

Posted August 24, 2008 Considering how good Ghost Squad and HotD2&3 turned out to be, I have a feeling this will be amazing. SEGA are probably the only developer who know how to use the Zapper (let's face it, even Nintendo couldn't get it right). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
