I seriously think they did that game knowing HD standards were higher than what they wanted to do and though it wasnt the same on wii, so they picked wii and realized wii owners arent willing to pay for games like that when they also have better games even if they are not similar. |
I disagree. I think there is always room for new, innovative types of experiences on the HD systems. Look at flower, heavy rain, and viva pinata. It's not the black and white and red that made it bad. It was just repetitive....but described by many as really fun. All that's needed is to expand on what makes the game fun. If that means they need more ways to kill, or better reasons to play (like hi-score database, co-op arena) etc, it can be done. I think there is a bit of a limitation on what they were able to do with the game, which could be improved on the HD.
HD gamers aren't obsessed with graphics. Some are, but from what I understand, one of the main draws of the HD systems is simply traditional control issues. The hardcorez like tight controls which they have honed over the years with nigh-imperceptible thumb movements, among other things like innovation, new experiences etc etc. I think both devs and analysts focus too much on making the ps360 games hi-def. Games like muramasa and many others would definitely have markets on the hd systems.
