| Andir said: "What's new?" What's new with Halo? What's new with Mario Galaxy? What's new with Metroid? Nothing. Everything has been done in one shape or form in other games. Your argument that user generated content on this level has been around for a long time is like me pointing at every game engine available for download and saying everything is old. The innovativeness is in combining all those different aspects you claim have been done in other games into one easy to use package. |
"Click N Play" for the PC actually allows all the stuff i mentioned above. The only difference is they did it for 2 player platforming. It was a pretty to use package and you could even send the games online to other people. Also you could make many more games the 2 player platforming and had more variety in designs. (you could import just about anything you wanted.)
That said it did have some flaws. Which i'd expect since it was made by what i think was a small company since i had to get a copy from europe.
So the answer is... because it's 3-D? I wouldn't say anything was new with Halo either, aside from some minor control changed, New with Metroid? Couldn't say, doesn't really interest me. Mario, The firing of the stars with the wiimote while simaltaniously playing a platformer. Closest thing that came to that was... what that Pacman SNES game?
