Wii finally grows some balls...

Quote:

MadWorld, a new computer game claimed to be "the most violent ever", is being launched on the Nintendo Wii console.

Looks interesting, guess the wii isnt just for kids and OAPs afterall.

thank mr skeltal

Wish I had come up with that idea: hey, let's make a shitty black-and-white game that costs us next to nothing in art direction and programming costs, but claim to make it really really violent so people will buy it due to the buzz we'll generate.

Looks like you just did come up with that idea. Madworld isn't shitty, and it has plenty of red in it.

That game looked really dumb based on the one trailer I saw for it on tv.

This.

My last hope in the Wii is The Conduit. If it can be good, then I'll still have faith that the Wii can still have good games.

Fuck Wii Motion plus while we are on the topic of the Wii. Why the hell should I pay more for a device that makes the remote do what it should have done from the day the Wii was launched.

I don't assume I'd be able to judge its shittiness if I hadn't. It isn't particularly long, but it's pure fun, and the plot makes you feel like a pretty big badass. It is a bit like No More Heroes in its atmosphere, except less repetitive (ironically less necessary with this significantly shorter game) and more visceral.

Game Informer gave this game a 9. Looks interesting and I may eventually come around to checking it out if I ever connect the Wii.

I'm still pissed that Wii is the only system to get the latest House of Dead installment.

Wiieak.

Nope, because I judged it by its cover and instantly dismissed it as stupid.

Looks like a bunch of crap, but that's my opinion. Maybe the gameplay will be good, but I don't really see what the hype is about.

A person can look at videos from a game and have an idea of whether or not they'll like that game. Crapoo's argument is fair enough.
