Around the Network

NOPE I want two.



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

I missed this part of the presentation. This looks like one hell of a crazy action game in 2D, try to imagine lasers and enemies jumping out at your face!

It's already got more big-name sequels than the Wii. I want it more than any other console/handheld i've ever wanted.



 

Copied this post of mine from the official conference thread:

"The 3DS really seems awesome, but am I the only one who is concerned about 3D visuals that only work within a certain sweetspot and motionsensors that basically invite developers to have the device be moved around?

It seems like a pretty big contradiction in hardware design, unless you limit it to movement where the player follows or make players turn off 3D."

At first I was like I'll get it when good games come out. Looks like those good games will come out on launch. Heck yeah its like it'll be day one

That's a pretty legitimate concern. I already feel that the DS form factor is poorly suited to tilt games. It's not as well-balanced as a unibody design like that of the iPhone/iPod Touch.

But frankly, I don't care if the 3D display turns out to be incompatible with motion controls. There's still a wide world of possibilities to explore with that one avenue closed.

Did they announce a release date other than "before the fiscal year ends"? Also it would be nice to have at least a price range.



 Been away for a bit, but sneaking back in.

Gaming on: PS4, PC, 3DS. Got a Switch! Mainly to play Smash
