Spyborgs will max out the Wii, no E3 showing

July 3rd, 2008 Posted in News, Wii, Written by Valay

While some efforts from third-parties have reached for the stars, a large majority of third-party developed titles have been less than impressive. Capcom, however, has provided the Wii with ongoing, strong support and seems interested in continuing their pattern. Spyborgs is one of the latest titles that have been revealed by the company. The game did not receive a terribly warm reaction from the hardcore Wii crowd, though numerous Capcom representatives have expressed feelings of faith in the game. Based on recent words, Wii owners should begin to believe in Spyborgs too, as Spyborgs, according to Capcom’s Christian Svensson, will max out the Wii and will make the most out of the Wii’s power. Svensson explained,”Spyborgs will be that product. Wait and see.” Also, on a slightly different note, Svensson gave the unfortunate news that Spyborgs won’t have much of a presence at E3. “Captivate was the announcement with very little detail shared… it’ll lie low for a bit until we’re ready for a bigger reveal (similar to what we did with the Dark Void announcement last October with the bigger reveal at Captivate), so no E3 showing.”

Bah who said people weren't impressed with the original unveil? I thought it looked pretty good... =P

I am glad they are trying to max out the wii. Also I was happy with the spyborg news.

Those are some bold words there, now they have to surpass Super Mario Galaxy's graphics. The screenshots so far don't show it, but it's in development now, so...

That is a nice picture.

BTW, it is better to start with bad publicity and work to good, than pull a Lair or Toohuman (I am refering to Hype, not game quality).

i was happy with spyborgs, but this game won't show wii potencial for sure. especially since we can compare graphics to first xbox title - xbox titles like conker, riddick, forza, ninja gaiden are good examples of how good wii title should look like. spyborgs looks great but not even near wii maximum capabilities.

We shouldn't take the available screenshots as if they're how the final version will look. There were plenty of old Mario Galaxy videos and screenshots which were not nearly up to par with the final version.

Having said that, this is PR so we should of course take it with a grain of salt large enough to season a meal for a whole army.

Maybe they are turning the tide for the better!

That's a nice picture... but any developer claiming "maxed out" only 18 months into the consoles life is Bullshitting. I mean maybe they are getting as much as they can now but in the future they will find ways to squeeze more like always.

That's a nice picture.

I'm very satisfied with the graphics shown. What I'm really hoping is that the gameplay will reach Nintendo like quality(TM).
