Posted March 8, 2007 Wow this got me all hyped up again. Not only are the graphics technically beautiful but all these lush colours and characters really make it outstanding already. Also the different locations and little planets will make it very diverse and challenging I suppose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 8, 2007 Now those are graphics. He also said that we would be playing SMG this year, that's exceeded my prediction of Q2 '08 so that was a bit of good news. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 8, 2007 Galaxy looks like the following : - a) clumsy to control b) the graphics I expected from day one c) and a bad camera angle. Having said that I didn't like mario 64, or sunshine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 8, 2007 In what way is it clumsy to control? Looks very all-together, imo. I don't see what's wrong with the camera angles either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 8, 2007 The camera angles are stunning. Especially when you walk around a spherical object. Then again, you'll forgive me if I say you clearly don't have much taste Zelda Freak if you didn't like SM64. Unless of course you played it recently for the first time and not from day 1.

Unless of course you played it recently for the first time and not from day 1. By todays standard of platform games, it's still an amazing game. But then, today's standards of platform games ain't exactly high. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No I played it on the n64, I believe I played it right around the time when banjo kazooie came out, thats when I got my n64. In what way is it clumsy to control? Looks very all-together, imo. I don't see what's wrong with the camera angles either. Just the fact you have to use the wiimote pointing functionality to try and remove flames while jumping seems to me like it could be hit or miss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 9, 2007 Out of curiosity Hellfire, or anyone else who knows... where did you get those high res screen captures from on the previous page? Is there a high res trailer online? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 9, 2007 Wow that's worse than the one I have. As I said I was after the high res trailer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 9, 2007 This trailer has me so excited for this game! How I love Mario! He's a Legend for sure! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 9, 2007 I'm still curious as to how Nintendo are setting the 'worlds' up. Is it one giant world, or seperate levels? In fact I've got so many questions, I think Miyamoto should come round to my house and personally give me a demo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 9, 2007 Still it looks like the average game this genration should look. Gameplay from what I have seen so far not really that impressed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 9, 2007 HD trailer http://www.gametrailers.com/player.php?id=17653&type=wmv. Does anyone else feel that Mario Galaxy is the game that is going to suddenly make the Wii be born. At the moment, I don't feel like the console has been born if you know what I mean. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At the moment, I don't feel like the console has been born if you know what I mean. Only for "teh hrdc0r" fans waiting for their favourite franchises to make themselves apparent I think. I still say watching my mother bounce around the living room on Wii Tennis was worth the price of the console alone. Galaxy is shaping up rather lovely though I must say. It looks like a very interesting take on the traditional platformer, Mario flying and floating around and running around upside down and stuff. looking positively glorious. In fact I've got so many questions, I think Miyamoto should come round to my house and personally give me a demo. That sounds filthy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 9, 2007 Yet any old crap on PS3 impresses you. No the gundam game that came out at launch didn't impress me much and the genji game didn't either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 9, 2007 Yet any old crap on PS3 impresses you. Graphically? Yes. Almost all PS3 games are graphically better than SMG. They may not be as well designed nor do they have a better art style. But SMG would be average for a PS3/360. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 9, 2007 Come on man, graphically we all know Wii cannot compete with either the PS3 or Xbox360... but Mario, as a platformer looks amazing (NOT VISUALLY!!!) it sure looks like great fun to play! SMG on a 360 or PS3, even with those graphics would be a very high-scoring game, because it's so fun to play!!! (basing that on all the impressions I've seen!)

Gameplay from what I have seen so far not really that impressed.Come on ZeldaFreak, quit bashing stuff just for the reason of disagreeing with us. As a developer in training, and especially a graphics crazy one like yourself, you should appreciate the performance Nintendo have made by pulling these visuals out of the system. It's jaw-dropping, especially considering it's a GameCube 1.5. It's really great to see how the gameplay seems so varied, with all those small elements that use the Wiimote, like that catapult, them orb fields and plant growth control. I'm definetely hyped now. This places it on top of my list, and MP3 is at a a respectful distance now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And yes I'll await the final product. But for what I have seen of it haven't been wowed yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 9, 2007 Am i allowed to say this game's graphics impress me more than most of the PS3 or Xbox 360 ones? Not tecnically speaking, but the art direction is amazing. Everything seems so well put together, damn good looking and fun to play. Little Big Planet for PS3 is an exception though. I definitely said wow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
