I can only imagine how good it looked on dolphin.


It's one of my favourite topics. I often show people Smash Bros or Metroid:Prime powered by a monster pc on a huuuuuuge tv and they don't believe that the games are over 10 years old. Metroid Prime is breathtaking.

Metroid Prime is terrible on Dolphin. Stuttering issues due to emulation of the architecture makes playing on a Gamecube much more preferable. 

lol. Noway man.

Dolphin 3.0. Widescreen hack 1080p 60fps.

Their opinion, but I would not even put it int eh top 30 of last generation personally.



Alright game overall, but the best? Not in my books.



I have had Wii and PS3 for the last gen. It would definitely have been in my top 20, perhaps sneaking into my top 10

Nope. Microstuttering is a huge issue no matter how powerful your PC is due to fundamental differences between x86 and GC architecture. If you play the GC version, it's MUCH smoother, even if it doesn't look glorious on a huge TV.

I felt like Galaxy 2 had much better levels than Galaxy 1, it was a sharper game. Although I liked the overall world of Mario Galaxy 1 better.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

lol at all the salty anti-Nintendo gamers.

The game is amazing in many ways. Clearly redefining the genre, excellent gameplay, and good complexity when you're going 100%. Especially if you go for the Luigi 100%.

Sure story is more in depth in games like TLOU, but the game pales in gameplay and complexity.

This is my last post on this topic as I don't want to derail the thread.

Yeah it does happen in general - I agree. 

I was mistaken though - I meant Dolphin 4.0. Sorry a typo.

But it really isn't as bad as you think. TV is a motionflow so that probably helps too.



A friend of mine loves this game to death!

 

And I agree, this is a great game. Not the one I would have chosen for game of the generation, though, but I respect IGN's decision.
