Clover studios? lol the guys who made Okami? Wow change of direction a bit, guess Okami not selling pissed them off.

Anyway looks cool but Wii? mwah. I'm sure it will be good due to their dev history.

You know you'd like it! A game where...you follow a man sized rabbit around, and you start to stab at shit with your knife, and shoot weird ****ers in the eye.....then get crushed by a jet engine.

From what I gather it's an open world game? Look's cool anyway. I was starting to worry No More Heroes was the last game I would want for the Wii.

Looks like it'd get old quick.

No, I was saying that the song was around waaaaaay before donnie darko, and to get it only as a reference to that movie seems rather weird to me.

...Anyway

With Sin City being one of my favourite films, I am very much looking forward to this. It's unique, adult-themed and not a PS2 port or a scaled down version of a game on the other platforms, so it has my full support. High stylisation is the only way to get good looking games on Wii, so I'm glad to see a developer stepping up and taking this approach, especially one with so much industry experience. "Realistic" graphics is for the other consoles and PC, and should never, ever be attempted on Wii if it ever wants to win back the hardcore fanbase.

Also,

Looks like it'd get old quick.

You must've come to that conclusion from how much you've played it, ay? Since you clearly must have tested an early build of the game to come up with such an in-depth and well explained statement, maybe you could share some details with us.

 

[Bad^Hat]

Wait, Platinum is the new Clover? :O

DO ****ING WANT!

It's called a ****ing opinion. Everyone in this thread has formed one already, with as much basis as my own. If you want reasoning, ask for it, without being a ****ing prick right off the bat.

I find games with this sort of gimmick are a one trick pony, and once that pony gets old, it can no longer pull its own weight. I can see myself playing this for about half an hour, and quickly shelving it for something of more lasting value.

 

[Blackthorn]

Don't worry, I know it's called an opinion. The basis part though is debatable.

What exactly is "this sort of gimmick"? Because I can't really find anything in the article that suggests any gimmicky qualities. I find it strange saying it'd get old when we know so very little about the game, at all. It could be a pile of balls, could be amazing, it yes could get old quick, but no one except the people who have played it know anything. All we know is it's black and white and has a lot of death.

So ****ing **** a ****mellow on cat**** and then **** a ****ing policeman **** snorkel with a ****er in a ****ing taxi.

 

[Adrik_Senturu]

****.


Looks pretty sweet.

 

[MiccyNarc]

I see the gimmick as being the "find new and creative ways to kill people!" Maybe I'm just jaded because I've seen all this before, except now it's in black and white.

When people run in circles it's a very very MadWorld(TM)

"However, because of the intended level of violence Platinum Games is unsure of whether or not the game will ultimately be released in Japan, stating, "In certain markets there are a lot of limitations on the amount of violence you can show, so we definitely have the Western market much more in mind.""

Gotta love the japanese, you can't have a black and white cartoon-style violent game, but you can have games in which you stalk and rape 13 year old girls on the subway.
Crazy nip(pon)s.

 

[Ravioli]

thought this was going to be some kind of game based on the song lol

 

[Blackthorn]

Not true. Go look at Rogue Leader on the GameCube. It still looks nearly as good as some Xbox 360 games, better than 99% of Wii games, and it came out in ****ing 2001. It's fully possible to do good-looking realistic-style graphics on the Wii. The problem is sloppy, lazy, untalented third-party developers who either don't or can't make anything with even a modicum of quality in it.

That is true, and I still play occasionally Rogue Leader to this day. But you can't really say a Star Wars space combat game is really going for the realism look. And you should take into account that it still looks so good because you're never viewing things up close. A Wii game attempting a true realistic look may look good, but it will never look great, the bar has simply been raised too high. Highly stylized games like Metroid Prime 3 and Mario Galaxy are proof that Wii games can look fantastic, even competing with the other systems, and have the gameplay to match.

Holy ****.

DO WANT.

New trailer out. I'm totally in love with the music they're using, it's apparently unique to the game.
