OMFG yes...that's going to be an amazing game. I'm gonna be wasting so much money on video games this year between my Wii and DS.

and if youve played it youd know its different from any FPS

If I'd played it, I would have talked about my experience rather than the video itself.

Quote:

i mentioned mature to go on to say why its a darker game with a grey color theme

Why should a more "mature" game have a grey coloured theme? Resident Evil and Silent Hill are both mature, yet they manage to get colour in places.

Quote:

of course it dosent all have a brown tint, nor dose gears have a grey tint everywhere, but the game looks that way for most parts
and brightness is an adjustment that should be taken into consideration if you think its to dark/gloomy of a game

Which is why I said "Not sure if it was the video itself".

Quote:

but there are people who might want to hear other people, make friends maybe?

There again, it still may be possible, considering the Wii is getting a mic. Just not likely.

Quote:

well then again i guess since you are tlaking about wiis, the majority will probably be 8-12 year olds so sure, but you still want to make friends dont you?

Look at the average ages on here. They range from 13-30's.

Quote:

of course, you can play with random people who you probably cant talk too

Personally, I'm not really bothered with the talking. If there's any friendships struck up, and swapping of wii codes or emails would be sufficient.

Quote:

but its still a hassle nonetheless which account names would be much perferred by everyone im sure

I don't really care for account names, except when it's part of a greater community (like a forum).

Quote:

and you totally skipped the fact about the best way to play =/

The best way to play?

Indeed it is. However, game mechanical-wise, it shares more in common that with on-rails shooter which is also first person. Not that it matters.

It's late here, and I have to be up early in the morning, so I'm calling it a night.

There's different views of what a mature game is; the person that envisioned this game thought that a darker color scheme is more mature. Do you think that if the apocalypse took over the world tomorrow, the sky would be blue and shining with the morning sun?

Valid point (he beta ya there Sovieto

).

That's not my main reason for online, but I would enjoy talking with people I have no clue who they are.

so bored of this
i was saying like IF youve ever played it, as in if you actually did play it
and
resident evil and silent hill are just as dark, if not darker, probably provide less color than gears, but yah gears has awesome color environments too
accounts wuld be easier than friend codes and let people easily make friends over the wii
i never heard about a mic coming
and for the best way to play comment, read my earlier post on why online will probably be bad

Bubbagump · 03-15-2007, 02:13 AM

i actualy sorta agree with you wiired. im starting to think id be better off with a 360 than a wii, but i realy want the new kirby game and ssbb. But i rarely get to play dead rising. (BEST GAME EVER!) and i want it so bad. ive also been disapointed with the wii, or more specificly i thought it to be better.

Icetrash · 03-15-2007, 02:17 PM

Wiired keep your Wii until SSBB, Galaxy and Metriod come out. When those come out and you still are bored of your Wii then something is seriously wrong and you should sell your Wii. Just be patient, it'll be worth it.

dan99iel · 03-15-2007, 03:02 PM

Well Wiired, YOU HAVE TEMPTED ME! I love live but no job. How much 360 in Aus? I don't like your plan that much, in my situation. Nobody will buy your Wii. And if they do, you will get like 200 dolz. I have no job so hard to get money so when i got my Wii, it was part of my Xmas gift from my mum. I just can't sell something like that! Plus, when the "Game Drought" is over, there will be heaps of cool games to get! But in the time of the "Game Drought" you save up everything you can. I saved up for about 6 months to get a Wii. No body is touching it! lol

.

Is it just me, or did that sound like a huge flame?

King Wiired · 03-15-2007, 05:34 PM

Wow, this threads had a whole new pages since I was last on, thanks everyone

I'm currently at this post: so this post by me may be edited.

I'm not informed on the selling of units, all I know is nextgenwars said 9.[something] million; that doesn't mean anything.

GoW isn't an FPS...not even close. In case you didn't know, FPS means First Person Shooter....in other words you're looking through the eyes of your character. Tell me, is this 'FPS'?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBlVCP5v5Wc
Sorry enough to say, i've never seen GoW gameplay till I watched that vid....that game looks incredible

360 doesn't have 2 games online, go to your local store. Look at the games. How many say "Xbox Live" on them? And as many as you count, that's not even all of them. Wii doesn't have any online yet, and even when we do get it, it's gonna suck (unfortunately); but it'll sitll be awesome to kick online SSBB ass.

Don't you come up with your so called 'facts', because I believe that 'facts' that are made up are called fiction....?

I'm sure Sovieto is surprised seeing me stand up for the 360....but Wiitendo, you're an extremely biased Nintendo fanboy. At least i'm an incy bit fair.

Sure I don't love you

always been cool witchu dude, and you're putting things into the true perspective, even though you may love Nintendo, you're saying what's true even if it's not what you/others here would want to hear. I respect that

and they're practically most of the other reasons I want a 360. And don't worry, by Christmas I'll be pwning you at Brawl

when I'll probably get a Wii again

tank · 03-15-2007, 05:37 PM

Look, just sell some cocaine and get enough money to buy all 3 next gens.

King Wiired · 03-15-2007, 05:47 PM

Right, let's put this into perspective of my plans. This time I want you guys to read 'cause some are getting confused or seeing my plan as stupid when really imo it's win win situation. Well, I'm currently not playing my Wii at all right? So I'm thinking, I'll sell it to get a 360. I can sell my Wii on eBay, for just over about £300, and buy a 360 off there for about £200, leaving £100. That £100, I'll be able to put away for my holiday, in which I won't have to save my pennies for in the future. Then, in September, I will begin getting £30 a week from my school for staying on at 6th form, and with the Wii being cheaper on eBay then (due to stores having it in stock), onlines up and running, and all the fan-effin-tastic games that I want like Galaxy, Brawl etc.. all out, some maybe even slightly cheaper on eBay, I'll be able to buy a Wii then in the coming weeks, meaning I won't miss out on any of the fun games, and I'll also have some great games on the 360, which I can also play almost all of them with friends. I really can't understand why that's not sucha good idea with some people

'cause I understand, yeah I might be unlucky and not sell my Wii for £300, etc.. but say if everything goes right, then I don't see how I'll lose out - 'cause it'll also give me something to look forward to, just like with the countdown to getting the Wii initially

Also respect to everyone who's posted here - means alot. Namely to Sov, Squall and ssbb_lover for backing up your arguments and standing your ground - love you guys (no homo)

and to comments from likes of IceT, bubba, dan99iel etc.. - ta for your points.

I would have to disagree there. Whilst they do generally have a dark hue, there's still plenty of colour in the Resident Evil series. For example, The police station is quite blue. Jill has blue clothing quite a bit. Brad Vickers in Resident Evil 3 has a yellow jacket on. There's plenty of colour on nemesis, ranging from scary purples, to a kind of pastey yellow for skin. Ada's always in her red little number and Ashley sports a little yellow and green.

Likewise, Silent Hill uses a lot of Fog for effect - it's not particularly dark normally, until the other dimension (or whatever the scarier place is). Then there's plenty of reds on screen, simulating blood. Also, James (from the second game) sports a green jacket. Maria is also wearing red. Pyramid head uses a combination of black and a sick kind of yellow-ish hue.

Not that I have much to compare them against except the video itself, but I thought I'd just point out that there's plenty of colour in Resident Evil and Silent Hill (But moreso in Resident Evil).

Yep. It is. Not sure who will utilize it most. Although the God-awful High School thing from Disney will have it. *shudders*

but you havent played gears, =] gears dose have a lot of color
http://screenshots.teamxbox.com/scre.../Gears-of-War/
i think my point is still valid about gears having more color, but this is stupid anyways, eh?
resident evils are dark, if were talking about RE1, basically the only thing is dark except for select areas

Farid · 03-15-2007, 08:56 PM

i dont know i`ll get a 360 but i have play gears - rainbow six - pro evolution soccer and no one really get me SOOOOO interested that i cannot sleep (i had play live! xd)i`m just saying that gears of war is great but not what everyone says =S so if you ask me, keep it

you have to get good first
i first played it at my friends house and thought it was okay, i thought all the blood and stuff was cool and the way you play it was cool, but then once i bought it for myself it turned into the thing everyone hyped it as
