Nowhere seems to mention anything like the 'chop till you drop' treatment in Nazi Zombies.

Thank you Treyarch for no gimp-ment!

I suppose that now we will see wii version beating at least the ps3 version.

You mean reviews or sales? Actually don't bother, not gonna happen either way.


Sales. I've seen a lot of reasons why a wii game does not sell as well as the hd-versions. Now those usual reasons don't apply (gimped,old/lame port,no marketing,not a big ip and whatever), so the game will sell more than those hd-versions.


The game is gimped. Check the red mark in the review.



A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.

oh don't you worry, another excuse will be found for why it doen't sell nearly as well.  there's always another excuse.

Local multiplayer? Do people really care about that if you can play the game online? :o

I think the Wii version will be outsold roughly 3.5-4:1 by the PS3 version and more by the 360 version and this time there are no excuses.

1) So local multiplayer is the reason those titles sold? Like wii fit? Nintendogs?  NSMB? Brain age? Mario kart ds?

2) Previously mentioned games and pokemon?

3) Do you really think that MW2 sold that much because of local multiplayer? Get real.

on sales discussion: no chance for Wii version, imho.(you were joking, right!)

But shouldn't it work with Wii Speak? i thought i read it somewhere...

Not really. If the marketing was the same and it had local multiplayer, there would be no excuses, but there are still strong differentiating factors this time.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
