This game looks awesome, so colorful. But, I never played the original and I am confused just what you do in this game... is all you do is fly through rings?

Yeah, NiGHTS is looking great. If it plays anything like the original, it is going to bea fanstastic game. I feel sorry for people who were to infantile to play the original when it came out, or too infantile now to enjoy anything other than "mature" games.

Anyway, I am looking forward to the WFC battles. There are going to be a number of 2P online battle modes. I am going to enjoying owning all of you in any speed run competitions. ;)

I find it funny (your sig) that Kanye West and 50 cent had a bet to see which one's album would sell the most the first week.

Yet on iTunes Soldier Boy outsold both of them.

You fly around a map that is divided into several different sections. You have to gather X amount of orbs for each section to move on. You fly through the hoops to get more points and such and it's all done against a timer. You have to fly quickly and accurately to be any good at it. Once you complete each section you're given a letter grade. After you complete all the sections on the map you're taken to a boss battle. After the boss battle you open the next map up if you scored an average of C on the previous world.

The maps get more complicated as the game goes on. You start really sweating to beat the clock until you've memorized the layout of each map. It's a fast-paced kinda game and it's a lot of fun.

This game is from SEGA. It has great potential to stink. :(dekasuperlink


Care to elaborate? Or are you basing that fully on the commercial success of the past few iterations of sonic and it's spin-offs. I can count on one hand the number of games SEGA has made that are truly bad.

Maybe try it on another computer?

Also what you can do it go into your control panel and make sure the settings are correct for your monitor and graphics card. Another thing is to make sure that you have whatever media player you're using optimized.

If that doesn't work you may want to restart the computer and check out the video first thing before other programs start taking up your RAM so more can be dedicated to the video player.

Sonic Rush Adventure, Virtua Fighter 5, Medieval: Total War (the whole series), Sonic and the Secret Rings, Crush, Sonic Rush, Condemned, Virtua Tennis 3, OutRun 2006, and Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz say hello.

There are many teams within SEGA, some of them great, some of them not so good.

You mean life? Why would have bad luck in life if I can't see those graphics as being "gorgeous"?

It's just a bunch of bright muddy colors.

We'll just see about that.

And in the off-chance that the game doesn't score well here, I'll be the first to claim that Saturn from System Wars Bets.

And uninformed fanboy bashing is yet another. You're just plain ignoring that entire list of games in my last post.

Sorry, but I didn't read your last post, but I forgot about those games. Not necessarily bashing, but I do take SEGAs track record into account. VF and Med are the only two that have been decent with VF being AAA in my opinion.

my mistake ;)

Previews don't do a lot of games justice, esp low res trailers. Playing the game is about the only way to know if it's really good or not.

dekasuperlink

Well, SEGA's recent track record has been very good.

It's perfectly fine for you to not like NiGHTS, or any of the games that I listed.

But all of those games were well-recieved by the critics and the gaming community in general. It would be wise to do a little research before making such statements.

I never said I didn't like NIGHTS. Previews account for little IMO (Lair). I apologize, but I still think there recent releases stink. There are very few games that haven't tanked in the last couple of years. Those you listed account for little when I look back at the horror that was Shadow the Hedgehog.:cry:. Sorry I never meant to bash, but I have a flame shield just in case;).

Agreed. Shadow was bad. So bad in fact that I could be perfectly happy never playing a game with him in it again (I know he's in the olympic game)

But NiGHTS....I'm not worried about that one.

I'll buy it. Last I said, I did play on the original NIGHTS on Sega Saturn. I enjoyed it. I prefer this game over the oversaturated overrated shooters (FPS or TPS) in the market.

you don't have unlimited time for "flying through rings." It's done on a timer which makes the game more fast-paced. Boss battles are at the end of each world and there's been multiplayer modes confirmed as well.

NiGHTS is one of those games that sucks to watch, but is incredibly fun to play. Sort of like Animal Crossing or Harvest Moon. The concept doesn't seem very good for a video game, but those two series are simply amazing.

Nights is what Sonic Team should've done with sonic. 3d visuals with 2d gameplay. Sonic is a game that they can and will never get right on real 3d.

I'm really looking forward to Nights, the first one was great. Actually the saturn, overall, was great. Panzer Dragoon Saga and Dragon Force. I really miss my Saturn now. Sold it a few years back. Got good money for it though ;) .

Yah, if I remember correctly you press a button and your character spins into enemies to damage them. It's more than just flying through rings. There's some exploration involved as well, whil going through the track of course.

Agreed. That is a legitimate complaint right there. If you were good at NiGHTS you could beat in in like a hour, hour and a half.

I definitely would like to see more maps in the new one.
