My God you guys are sensitive.

I'm anticpating Muramasa and MadWorld out of those.
I'm a bit worried about Punch Out, though. You'd think Nintendo would assign one of their better teams to revive such a classic franchise.

 

You'd think their favorite developer and system make had been put down and ignored for years.

Wait, they have.

Stop pretending this is out of the blue.

"The game:
The Conduit

What is it?
Highly anticipated FPS with claims of delivering a 360/PS3-quality experience."

I really hope this quote is a joke.

Agreed.

To say that only games available on the PS3/360 have a quality that is unattainable or hasn't yet been attained on Wii is quite silly to say in the least.

I'm glad that I'm not alone on this one.

 

I third this line of thought :D

It should be. It is like fourth year of the console and still there aren't that many good games. Hope 2009 will be better for the wii.

Third year. Can't you count?

Well that was condescending and poorly written



PC + Wii owners unite.  Our last-gen dying platforms have access to nearly every 90+ rated game this gen.  Building a PC that visually outperforms PS360 is cheap and easy.    Oct 7th 2010 predictions (made Dec 17th '08)
PC: 10^9
Wii: 10^8

He has a point about survival horrors on the Wii. Silent Hill Homecoming and Alone in the Dark (HD consoles exclusive I presume, considering Obscure 2 was more important to mention) sold great and got excellent scores. Dead Space did more than meet EA sales expectations. The combined sales of SH Homecoming (190k + 150K) are almost 4X the combined sales of Resident Evil 0 and remake for the Wii. Konami made a lot more revenue than Capcom.

RE Umbrella Chronicles is no survival horror, it lacks online co-op (which makes RE 5 a survival horror game).

 

That sarcasm was delicious.

@okeydokey

Can you point me to a "PS360 Preview of 2009 games" article which lists off the reasons why every listed game might fail and begs developers not to take advantage of key PS360 features? Because that article would be just as retarded as this one.
