Procrastinato on 06 February 2009

^^^ Yeah if Mario 64 came out tomorrow, it would be 11, because of GTA4 score inflation.

^ Yep, Ocarina would go to 11. Its 1 louder



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

So is an 8.0 like a 10.0 for the Wii now?

 

when it comes to the fact that most sites are biased, then yes

 

 

What wii game has IGN given a bad score that deserved a good score? It's not bias, there just has been a glut of really really crappy, and at best mediocre wii games.

 

no more heroes, for starters.

One game, half a point lower than the average, a year ago=reviewer bias

I agree that IGN isn't the most biased site against the Wii.  Game Informer, on the other hand, is a swift and sharp kick to Nintendo's crotch.

Awesome! I've been keeping my eye on this one since its announcement, and it's turned out good. I still don't know if I will get it, but it looks very good.
I think I remember reading that if Deadly Creatures doesn't sell well, then it's back to making more casual stuff for the developers. So I hope it sells well D:

I would have brought this game if i had a wii to be honest, i am kinda jealous that i cant have a lil go f it, i like the concept. i mean it isnt every day that you get to Be a animal in a game.



Nobody's perfect. I aint nobody!!!

great, now we have Tenchu 4 that got 8.0, House of the Dead: Overkill that got 8.3 and not Deadly Creatures getting a 8.0!! : )

what happened to the 6.7 and 6.5!?

i hope these games sell, too bad i can't play them all



don't mind my username, that was more than 10 years ago, I'm a different person now, amazing how people change ^_^

Voltaire on 07 February 2009

Im getting Deadly Creatures And Tenchu really soon. HOTD in March maybe, if not April (Madworld is March).

I do hope this game gets marketed well like De Blob. Ill bet De Blob wouldnt have sold half as much as it has without advertising. Hopefully Deadly Creatures can be the same success.

I liked their closing comments:

Closing Comments
I pray that Wii owners take notice of Deadly Creatures so that this ambitious new property from Rainbow Studios may blossom into a lucrative franchise. If definitely deserves the attention. This is a game for Wii owners who want something refreshingly different. It's powered by a dark, intelligent storyline, boasts great production values through and through, and features smart, fun controls (that use the Wii remote well), not to mention some unexpectedly engrossing exploration elements. The game's got a few polish issues -- camera and framerate hiccups and some frustrating bugs of the technical nature -- but it's still engrossing from beginning to end. THQ's creepy Wii exclusive action-adventure is not just a console showpiece, overflowing with cutting-edge graphic design and ultra-ambient audio, but one of the few titles for the system available whose main characters will give you goose bumps, let alone the supporting cast.

If you complain that Wii never gets high-quality third-party games and you don't buy Deadly Creatures, you've only yourself to blame.

EDIT: I was really on the wall for this one. Now I'm in!! :) I really like it when they mention "fun controls (that use the Wii remote well)". Reminds me of Godfather. :)

It's certainly a good score. But is anyone else completely fed up with reviewers using phrases such as "admittedly less powerful hardware"; "spectacular by Wii standards"; and "Wii owners who know the console's limitation".

It's getting really old now. Yes, we all know we have inferior hardware. Give it a rest already.
