Kizuna (wii) screens -- looking good.

Why does SOTC look better than this game? Why?

Sometimes I feel like Wii owners will get excited about anything. Looking at these screens I struggle to really see what makes them so special.NAPK1NS

Wow, I really like the artstyle.

I suppose so. I'm just excited about 10,000 other titles right now so maybe It's hard to grab my attention.

Interesting artstyle? A game doesn't need be high on a techinical scale, a great artstyle can create that eye appeal within a game like this.

[QUOTE="hakanakumono"][QUOTE="spectravoid"]

lol yuck i dont like the visuals

i don't care if gameplay is amazing if my eyes bleed trying to see it or find where everything is.

i dont like madworld because of that

TAKE_IT_BACK

I think madworld is visually superior to this game though.

MUCH so.

I'm looking forward to madworld because of the guys making it. I think they can pull through.

Honestly - it looks like a Shadow of the Colossus drained of all color and interesting character design. I don't quite grasp the "eye-catching" bit.

Because:

1) Cell shaded games look like crap. Cell shading is not 'artsy'.

2) Shadow of the Collosus looks stunning,especially the collosus.

3) On a technical side,SotC is superior.

Thats simply varied tastes and thought, mainly.

I actually quite excited about alot of games, so thats not true.

Again -- It seems like anything posted on Wii is a PoS.

as someone already said, PoP is a lot like ICO, yet no ones calling it ICO 2.0 -- Because its not on the Wii? Perhaps..

1) I think cell shaded games look great if done correctly. Look at the Budokai Tenkaichi games for PS2. Also killer 7 and XIII. All examples of great cell shading.

2) I agree whole heartedly. That game should not have been possibleon the PS2.

3) I must agree there too. I mean we havent seen much of this game, but by the screens i have seen, this game seems very lacklustre. But at the same time, SotC also had a very unstable frame rate that constantly stayed below 30FPS while u were fighting the colossi. So maybe they made a trade off in this game, they got constant 30FPS in exchange for sum graphical fidelity.

I can tell how this game idea was pitched..

" hey, ive got a great idea for a wii game, lets make a game for wii thats like shadow of the colossus, but cell shaded! that way we it wont look like crap on wii"

VendettaRed07

:roll: Some of the crap you guys actually type out and post is incredible.

what, thats what it looks like

no where did i say its gonna be a bad game, it just the style looks unoriginal and bland..

You make it sound like if SotC was on the Wii, it would magically be worse looking than the PS2 game.

Not at all, its just a way of making it so they dont have to really push the hardware, im not a fan of cell shading, it worked with winwaker and okami and all, but i think its lazy.

actually, devs have said many times that cell-shaded is one of the hardest ways to do a game.

well thats great and all when the cel shading looks good but that is no excuse for this game

Indeed. That's what that bit about the "I" was all about.

Mandingo101

It's just a more complex, longer, painstaking process.

Ok here it comes:


The graphics look like crap. There are other games that make much better use of cell shading than this. From a technical stand they are even less than what the Wii's limits can provide and the art sty le is badly achieved.
Like 2 trees and 5 flowers on a flat ground with basically nothing in the background? Does that even qualify as an environment?

- Huge bosses, find the weak point by pointing the Wii remote on screenNeogaf

TBH while I do love the artstyle, the in game graphics doesn't look great. Fragile look a lot better.

Crap. Thread has been invaded by DireToad...

I thought Jaleco went out of business after they made a crappy RE clone for the dreamcast.

It looks like now they're working on a crappy SotC clone.

its like they took SoTC and slapped a coat of okami on itMandingo101

Okami looks a hell of a lot better than this game.

I'd rather see people go out and buy a port of one of the best games on PS2 for 30 bucks than waste 50 on a turd of a game like this. Buy Okami Nintendo fanboys, ignore this game. You will only be setting yourself up for disappointment.

Meh, I am more excited for Fragile anyway. It look a lot better then this game.

We already know how that it plays like SotC and, judging from the screens, it looks poor.

It's an action RPG with large bosses. If every action RPG with large bosses plays like SotC, then Rogue Galaxy and Kingdom Hearts(the Nighmare Before Christmas boss was huge and you had to climb on him lololololololol) are SotC clones.

Personnally, the game looks more like a single character rogue Galaxy.

I don't know about Rogue Galaxy, but then nightmare before christmas level itself wasn't really a boss imo, or at least, it didn't operate like SotC. There was a boss inside though. The way the gameplay is described makes it sound more like SotC.

wow Jaleco is back but with a ripoff LMAO.
