Some of you guys complaining about "all the unnecessary violence" need to quiet yourselves. The Wii need darker, more violent Mature titles. There's too much E-rated kiddie-ish crap on the system right now. I'm an adult and I want some software geared towards me. If you want the Wii to be taken more seriously with the hardcore-only crowd, it needs games like this.
From what I can see, the game looks pretty damn sweet, and I hope it turns out well. Wish I could view the videos here at work. Forgot to do it when I got home last night. |
If your iNcentive for this game is that a couple of 14 year old "hardcores" don't think the Wii is 'mature' enough because of the lack of mindless violence in the wake of games simply rated E then there's probably a need to reassess exactly why you purchase games and eactly who is in charge. I'm all for games aimed at adults. Blood isn't exactly a quality of "maturity," however. The violence reminds me of Mortal Kombat, which is far from the pinnacle of maturity in video games. |
I'm not just saying "ooh blood = adult game" because that's asinine. The game is darker, it looks bleak and offers over-the-top violence clearly geared toward a more adult, hardcore audience. Darker, more mature (Mature-rated), adult-orientated, hardcore, higher-quality exclusives are exactly what the Wii needs. You're first sentence (half of your post) is a real jumble and difficult to even comprehend. All I can make out from it is that I'm apparently wrong for wanting a gory Mature game on the Wii.
I don't get this complaining about "too much violence" in a video game. That's been a staple of video games ever since the first shot destroyed the first Space Invader. Violence and gore are part of video games. Too much stuff on the Wii is geared towards 6-year-olds and is E-rated shallow trite that also happens to completely lack quality, care, or polish. I didn't buy the Wii to waste money on childish crap. I bought it as a next-gen (now current-gen) gaming system, and I expect to see real video games on the thing. Not childish trite.
Anyway, I finally got to see high-res videos for the game and they looked freakin' awesome. I absolutely cannot wait for this to come out as it's now at the top of my most-wanted list with The Conduit. Love the black and white style and creative bloody kills. The character design and animation also looks pretty cool.
