This is total f---n bullcrap. Bloody Rogue Trooper just got an 8 and that game is last gen.

Capcom are losers and it hurts even more to know that these PS360 pirates are rubbing it in while they enjoy SF4 and RE5 within 2 months of each other. Hate Capcom. They have taken too bloody long to actually bother with the Wii and now they are apparently getting worse at it.

 

 After Gamecube and N64 you should've known better then to think you'd be gettting strong third party support on Wii. In fact now that Wii is selling like crack with no 3rd party support expect it to get worse not better. Ps. I'm a PSwii owner I don't worry about such things.

 

Your comments make no sense. The Wii is a different console than the N64 and the Gamecube. There are reasons for those consoles to not have a lot of third party support. The N64 used cartridges and the Gamecube used 1.5 GB mini disc. The Wii does not have a storge media problem and it's also the market leader. It may be under powered but so were the PSX and the PS2 but third parties supported those consoles.

The problem with developers is that they are only pushing Graphics. They are spending lots of money to make realistic graphics and complaining about the rising cost of games, isn't that ironic.

3rd party support for the Wii will get better. The Wii almost has a user base of 50 million. Publishers and developers are silly to ignore that. Well, every one except Capcom. There is just no hope for them. Their losing money and still Ignore the Wii and DS and the PSP, to some extent.

There are 2 things:

1. It's not about userbase. Userbase is actualy the problem, casual userbase. Companies know they can make millions of dollars making games like Cooking momma and links crossbow training. PS360 user demographic wont put up with that.  

2. The Wii compared to a Ps360 is not like comparing a PS2 to a Gamecube. It's more like comparing a super nintendo to a PS2. If you're looking for big buget games then forget the Wii. And dont get mad at me for this. Talk to Nintendo. The Wii's composition is good for Nintendo's bottom line, but not "hardcore gamers". Again I enjoy my Wii for what is does. And PC/PS3 for what it cannot. In a perfect world we could all play PSWii60. But alas it is not a perfect world. As for storage Media constraints those days are long gone. If they still existed then PS3 would be the ruller of the universe.

"The Wii's composition is good for Nintendo's bottom line, but not "hardcore gamers"."

What? The Wii can be for those gamers. It's just that companies think graphical details matter more than they do.

The DS is even less powerful, and it has plenty of games hardcore gamers can take to.



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

So it scored exactly the same as Onechanbara Bikini Zombie Slayers. So if I was to get one - which would I get now? OBZS is $10 cheaper too...

So few zombies and they can't even give them enough AI to attack always.

 

What do you mean "attack always"? The 360 game isn't even like that. They just shuffle around until they are alerted to prey. Same with the RE games. Even 4.

You don't have to like the game, but don't pretend this has anything to do with this game.

You know a game has low expectations when 6.9 is good.

Sorry I remember in those games walking near an enemy would make it attack my character, not stand there and do sod all while I kill it.

 

Sorry, they do not do that 100% of the time in the 360 version, especially if you move past them fast enough, which applies in this game as well.

When they are alerted, they attack. Videos of actual extensive gameplay show that.

lol. That's completely true. While it did better than expected, it still isn't very good.

Pretty good score for a Wii game, really. =)

Wii fans need to score this, so they make more, and they get better. I'm not joking.

 

Wii fans have already bought 3 million Resident Evil games which were much better efforts than this. The message has already been sent. Buying this would just affirm that Wii owners will buy any drek that features zombies at all.
