Emasher Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I'm sure we'll see some right before the game comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMJ Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I am confident that Monolith is a very capable developer. Because we havent seen anything from them doesnt mean they arent working on stuff. D:DOC was supposed to be released in July in Japan, but due to the earthquakes in Asia, it was apparently delayed. Hence we havent heard much about it since. Now that things have cooled down about, I bet it's time to put this game back on the schedule. The Nintendo now, isnt what they used to be. They like to go the Apple-way: Announce things and release very soon afterwards. Let the marketing machine start after two week prior to release and continue long after it. Having said that, I still doubt we'll see this game this year. Hope it's a well put together game. As for Zoonami? Dont get me started on it. It's a small team and only one guy from the infamous Goldeneye-team. They've been around since the early Cube day and we still havent seen anything from them. So far, they've been getting more credit than its due. Heck, I might even give Nibris more credit than Zoonami... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd much rather Nintendo splash some cash at Martin Hollis' door than those overrated monkeys working at Rare. Rare and Nintendo were magic, title after title with heart and character, humour and passion, lovingly created. Those days are long gone. Rare have had they're day, and now, at best they ship out mediocre product for Microsoft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just sad, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
... Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 What they should do is use the fucking Nintendo Channel on the Wii and cram it with cool videos and video game trailers and video interviews and shit like that. That fucking channel is useless as is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That fucking channel is useless as is. I think they should cut a deal with game trailers and have all the Nintendo related videos on the channel. Maybe they could set it up so you could subscribe to videos of certain games. And they need to have live coverage of all Nintendo events on it.

Goron_3 Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Looks like I'll be passing on this. Haven't really heard anything new about it that makes me put it above that massive pile of 360 games I need to buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jordan Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Rare have had they're day, and now, at best they ship out mediocre product for Microsoft. So yeah, have you played Viva Piñata? Or seen the impressions of Banjo Kazooie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedrocasilva Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 So yeah, have you played Viva Piñata?Viva Pinata, yeah, I'll give them that.Or seen the impressions of Banjo Kazooie?Yes, and I'm not impressed in the slightest with it, quite the contrary.

Hellfire Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Looks like I'll be passing on this. Haven't really heard anything new about it that makes me put it above that massive pile of 360 games I need to buy. There's nothing known about the game to give a "pass" or "buy" judgement on it, honestly. Asides from the dev team and concept, it's a mistery. Viva Piñata is a good game, although it's missing some polish, but it certainly is above mediocre (although honestly it doesn't grip me). Banjo seems to push a lot of wrong buttons, but it's still on my radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banjo seems to push a lot of wrong buttons, but it's still on my radar. But I know enough when it comes to 4-5 360 games which are in my 'to buy' list. If this turns out to be great i'll buy it after I've got those, which'll mean having to set up my wii again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero-of-Time Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 CVG have updated their site with 70 odd new shots of the game. http://computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=196274 Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hellfire Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Asides from the main char, the graphics are pretty bad yeah. I'm wondering if these are from an old build as there are old pics in the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_prOdigy Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Not looking all that polished, no. Although the gameplay does seem to be pretty arcadey, which may actually be a good thing; what with many 3rd person shooters taking themselves far too seriously these says. But if the physics are as advanced as they're touting them, I'm more than happy to overlook some murky backgrounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tellyn Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 The graphics aren't brilliant, but the game reminds me of Ghost Squad and Metal Gear Solid (and the storyline elements are like a blend of 24 and the Day After Tomorrow). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emasher Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Hopefully the game looks better in motion. Though, I'm more concerned about how the gameplay turn out. This could still turn out good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shino Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 I don't think the graphics look that bad, I'm sure that in movement it looks better, and the environments seem to be really big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emasher Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 TBH, I think the type of fire they're using in Disaster works better with the art style and will probably look better in motion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dante Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Info - You can set where the radio messages and the gun sound fx comes out from. The screen shows the Radio messages output set to the Wiimote, and the Gun sound fx output set to the Wiimote as well. - There are items in the game, and you have an inventory. They look like the normal restorative items for health and whatnot. - The game is stage based and you get a ranking for how well you did at the end of each stage. - You earn BP from combat and SP from rescueing people (and probably completing various QTE events successfully). BP is used to buy new weapons and upgrade the weapons, while SP is used to improve the character stats. - You start with 3 basic weapons available - Rifle 1, Handgun 1 and Assault Rifle 1. Each of these are the start of a weapons tree, kinda like a skill tree in RPGs (lol Monolithsoft). You buy more weapons with BP via this tree. - For weapons you already have, there are 5 areas you can upgrade them in - Power, ammo capacity, reload speed, etc. Upgrading will also cost BP. - There are no screens for character stats upgrades, so I dunno what you can spend SP on.
