Interesting double-talk.
Either way I'm looking forward to Spyborgs.
Forget Sven! I like this guy!
Okami
To lavish praise upon this title, the assumption of a common plateau between player and game must be made. I won't open my unworthy mouth.
spyborgs, never heard of it
okami wii desrved to sell 10 million, okami is one of the best games
Sven was wrong. This has been known since shortly after he made the quote. More than a few times he has shown his ignorance about the financial side of Capcom. Hell, when someone quoted the Capcom financial report for how many copies Okami sold, Sven asked for a source!

QFT!
Yeah, Sven's oft been unaware of his companies finances.

During Spyborgs’ development we set out to do things right. We were going to make a game that fans of Devil May Cry and God of War would enjoy. Those gamers expect great graphics. Being on the Wii was not an excuse to disappoint them. Similarly, the system has motion controllers. Wii gamers expect their games to implement motion in a good way! Just because other games had done it poorly and, as you mention, brawlers and fighters typical need fast button combos, those were not excuses to shy away from the challenge. - Spyborgs Lead Producer Daryl Allison I'm not too sure that the crowds that play those games are going to rush out to the store to give Spyborgs a try. I'm thinking that Spyborgs is aimed at a crowd that's just a tad younger. That doesn't make it a bad game by any means, just saying that the audiences share a big age difference. Mr. Allison also has something to say on Okami sales. Since Capcom loves to go back and forth on this topic, let's see what the latest statement is. Fortunately, I was able to be part of giving one of those great games a second chance to be appreciated, bringing Okami to the Wii, and it has sold quite well. It’s good to see that game get the commercial respect it deserves. (And it proves great 3rd party games can sell on the Wii!) - Spyborgs Lead Producer Daryl Allison Check out the full interview here |
I agree with you Soriku. I honestly don't see how they think people who play DMC and GOW, mature rated games will see a game named "SPYBORGS" and be interested. But then again that just shows you the ignorance of some people right. Spyborgs actually looks like a really fun game and I'm excited that it has multiplayer.
