Zelda_Rulez Posted April 10, 2008 Posted April 10, 2008 This the same Monolith that developed the great but overlooked shooter, Shogo, for the PC and most recently FEAR and Condemned? If so, they are one of my fave developers. I think that's another Monolith, namely Monolith Productions. Disaster is by Monolith Soft.
pedrocasilva Posted April 10, 2008 Posted April 10, 2008 I think that's another Monolith, namely Monolith Productions. Disaster is by Monolith Soft.You are correct. Monolith is basically Chrono Cross and Xenogears team; they're specialized in RPG's but ended up doing this RE4-style game.
Deathjam Posted April 10, 2008 Posted April 10, 2008 You are correct. Monolith is basically Chrono Cross and Xenogears team; they're specialized in RPG's but ended up doing this RE4-style game. Xenogears was good and barely started Chrono cross but being egged on by a friend to complete it so will sort that out later. Good developers so I have high hopes for this game. Shame though, wou;d have liked something from 'Productions.
dwarf Posted April 10, 2008 Posted April 10, 2008 I would have liked something from the Naughty Dog team but who am I kidding?
Konfucius Posted April 10, 2008 Posted April 10, 2008 This game is bound to be awesome purely because of the main characters haircut and beard. The haircut should be possible for me actually but my beard is not thick enough.
Guest Maase Posted April 10, 2008 Posted April 10, 2008 I really hope we see more of this game in the Nintendo Media whatevah I just love this game
Dante Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 Finally! Here are some brief details about Nintendo's monolithic Wii game. Details have always been sketchy on Monolith Soft's new Wii title, Disaster: Day of Crisis. Originally scheduled to be released in 2007, the game was delayed into 2008. With the impending Japanese release, a few new details have been revealed about the Nintendo-published "survival action" game, courtesy Famitsu Magazine. In Disaster: Day of Crisis you play as Ray, who a year ago lost his friend and co-worker, Steve. The story centers on Ray's attempts to rescue Steve's sister, Lisa, from kidnappers. His efforts are challenged by a series of natural disasters such as volcanoes, tsunamis, and hurricanes. On top of that, Ray has to foil a terrorist plot to set of a nuclear bomb. Gameplay will work by moving around with the analog stick on the Nunchuk. The Wii Remote pointer aims whatever weapon or item Ray has equipped, which can be used with the B Trigger. Ray can also stop to help the wounded. One level shows Ray trying to escape a tsunami in a car, which is controlled by the player holding the Wii Remote in a horizontal position. Disaster: Day of Crisis is slated for a July release in Japan. It is currently listed as 2008 in the US and Europe. www.nintendoworldreport.com

dwarf Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 I like the sound of al that, apart from the distant feeling of a release date.
Jamba Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 Yes it uses B to fire! Thats one of my only criticism about the MP3 setup.
Zechs Merquise Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 I like the sound of al that, apart from the distant feeling of a release date. Well the thing that bothers me about this is how close the release date is and how little we've seen. Personally I have a bad feeling about this one!
dwarf Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 Yes it uses B to fire! Thats one of my only criticism about the MP3 setup. You can change that in the options. And yeah, I guess it isn't too far away, but everything seems it at the moment because nothing too appealing is coming out soon. It's all just 'look at this cool future game' atm.
Guest Maase Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 Hell Yeah, i like it Im starting to save a lot of money, im gonna buy a lot of games.
Konfucius Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 Gameplay could be fun but the plot sounds like it was put together of four B-movies.
Jamba Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 Gameplay could be fun but the plot sounds like it was put together of four B-movies. Yep. It's a bad sign that they've told you so much of whats going on already. Hopefully there will be far more too it than that as this is Monolith but the lack of media exposure from this game is a bit worrying. Especially as this is basically a Nintendo game now. :S
Hellfire Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 We knew the plot was something like that, at least about surviving catastrophes and helping people, so not much new here.
steggy Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 Gameplay could be fun but the plot sounds like it was put together of four B-movies. Less like a B-Movie and more like a disaster movie if you ask me, which could be exactly what they're aiming for.
david.dakota Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 I'm looking forward to this, I just hope its been worth the wait.
Zechs Merquise Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 I think it;s a great idea for a game, but we've seen so little of it. I don;t hold out much hope.
Retro_Link Posted May 16, 2008 Posted May 16, 2008 Was inevitable really! http://www.cubed3.com/news/10032 Disaster: Day of Crisis Delayed in Japan Nintendo's action packed adventure, Disaster: Day of Crisis, has been made TBA in Japan. According to an announcement on the game's official Japanese page, a release date has be prosponed to extend development and make improvements to a title that would have hit stores on July 3rd 2008. I'd like to see around another 6 months work be put into this! Make it known to the world [we've seen so little] with progress/info reports, new screens, trailers, run an advertising campaign etc... And released worldwide for Christmas '08.
ShadowV7 Posted May 16, 2008 Posted May 16, 2008 Was expecting this. It cropped up from nowhere and it needs more attention/details out.
tapedeck Posted May 18, 2008 Posted May 18, 2008 Recent reports are actually stating that it may have been delayed due to the whole disaster situation in China Makes sense.
Shino Posted May 19, 2008 Posted May 19, 2008 Recent reports are actually stating that it may have been delayed due to the whole disaster situation in China Makes sense. Then its never going to get released.
