Tales Posted September 7, 2007 Posted September 7, 2007 NGamer sucks at reviewing games. Otherwise a good magazine, but I haven't got mine yet, so what score did they give?
Kazzahdrane Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 So, anyone got this yet? Obviously this question is aimed at the small number of people here who work in games retail and may have got it early. Bioshock came into my workplace on the Monday of the week it was released so I have my fingers and toes all crossed in the hopes that SPM arrives tomorrow. Waiting these last days is going to suck!
ShadowV7 Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 Damn you Kazza rubbing it in.I'm looking forward to this game...
Coolness Bears Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 Competely forgot this was coming out and now have no money to buy it, Oh Well, Worms is too much fun! I'l just get this in October.
Kazzahdrane Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 I've been waiting for this game ever since it was moved to the Wii, and have been angrily waiting for it since April. 5 and a half months delays are *so* European, it's the height of fashion in Paris I hear.
GMC Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 Been waiting for this game since... since... well, it seems like forever. Ordered it the same day i ordered Tiger Woods 08, so it almost completely went out of my mind since that arrived. Now that i've I checked the boards and rememebered its out this friday - this will be a long, long week.
dazzybee Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 My girlfriend is moving house this weekend so I'm driving down to London on Fridat until late monday - argh!! bad timing. And now she wants to take a small ferry cruise to Brugges on Tuesday til Friday!!
The-chosen-one Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 i havent heard much of this game, does it still has the rpg elements?
Tales Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 I think it has some, like experience points.
flameboy Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 i havent heard much of this game, does it still has the rpg elements? yeah it still has some of them, but the combat system has been taken out and replaced by tradition platform style killing, with the odd bit of remote waggling for bonus points, you get experience points and there are also the pixls that give you abilities...
Cube Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 i havent heard much of this game, does it still has the rpg elements? It's more of an RPG than a platformer, according to reviews.
theguyfromspark Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 They've ditched the turn based combat, it's now more traditional mario head stomping stuff but there's still power ups, xp and all that jazz.
Strange Cookie Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 It's a platformer with RPG-elements. Or an RPG with platforming elements. Or an RPG-platformer. Or a platform-RPG? Hell, it's fun. :wink:
flameboy Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 It's a platformer with RPG-elements. Or an RPG with platforming elements. Or an RPG-platformer. Or a platform-RPG? Hell, it's fun. :wink: a platformer with RPG and puzzle elements I'd say...
Kazzahdrane Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 Yeah, it's not an RPG with a bit of platforming. From what I hear it's about 80% platforming, 20% RPG. That's not all seperated out of course, it's a platformer with RPG elements throughout.
flameboy Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 Yeah, it's not an RPG with a bit of platforming. From what I hear it's about 80% platforming, 20% RPG. That's not all seperated out of course, it's a platformer with RPG elements throughout. Just to be pedantic, I'd say its more like 75%/25% just because there are a lot of menus, like the constant swapping between characters and calling on power ups and items.
theguyfromspark Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 I think its 75.234%/24.766% because of the Wii Remote... or something. My order at shopto.net is now processing! There's a possibility i could have this by wednesday!
... Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 From what I read, it's more of an RPG than a platformer. The only RPG-characteristic that it dropped was the turn-based combat. Which is awesome because I hate turn-based combat. I don't mind all the other RPG things, but turn-based combat I just cannot tolerate. It's stupid.
