The genre is a hot bed of new ideas right now, new exciting ideas which have worked well for the most part, that's because there's so much competition between developers currently. Some of these GoNintendo members seem totally oblivious, It has fuck all to do with the lack of HD graphics!, yet they still think our opinions are swayed by such a trivial things. : /
As a Wii owner, I would quite frankly prefer to experience the innovation I see on my 360, PS3 and PC in the FPS genre. Why on earth do I want to play a Wii game that looks and plays notably weaker and offers next to nothing that's
new. Give me Half-Life over this crap any day.
What's wrong here is HVS approach, not creating a FPS on Wii, but attempting to feebly mimic certain graphical effects we see commonly elsewhere. It's nonsensical. I personally don''t give a Bonobo **** about graphics!, If HVS had put forward something akin to TimeSplitters I would jump at such a game without a seconds thought, because that's the mold they should be working from. Creating a core of great playability, and then building everything else around that. only after the gameplay mechanics are fine tuned. HVS instead created an engine first and tried to showcase it with little application of thought to core gameplay and making the game seem fresh and new.
HVS really concern me, I have
very little faith in them. The Conduit has fundamental flaws, and that was obvious to me from the very start!. I have been posting news stories on the game for a long while now, as some you will know, and I have consistently said there is no fucking way In hell will be buying this game. How do I come to such a conclusion having never played it?, well it's art is so bad I feel like I could vomit over my LCD tv if I ever put them game back in my Wii again/. It
pains me when I see such low quality and ill conception in this generation, it actually makes me very angry.
HVS have a
terrible art team, the standard of art in their games is truly laughable. Their recent fighter is a lovely example, you know, the one with a woman who has moves ripped out of a Kung Fu movie, lol...What would the Roman's think. That game looks liike another shocker.. If your going to make games on Wii, the quality of art is of
paramount importance, HVS fail miserably in both these games [ . ]
It's funny, because beforehand I really wanted the game to do well, but I have come to realize that I certainly don't want HVS to be flooding the console I love with games of this standard, even if their intentions are good and commendable,
Sack the heart of the art team, sign up some young people with fresh ideas to harness, because what your showing me now as a mature Wii owner does not interest me in the fucking slightest.
They seem so oblivious to what really needs to be done on Wii, or alternatively, they are controlled way too much by their paymasters in respect to what projects get the go ahead and how they are constraucted as a result. It could be said the reason why the Conuit looks so generic is because it aims to appeal to the widest audience possible. I
The one sole cool game I have seen form them is Animales, that's the only one game of theirs that appeals to me.
As far as Go Nintendo are concerned, the fact someone has linked to this thread. speaks volumes. I will say very little on the matter - there are indeed some nice people there and I happily apply due respect, but boy are there some fucking sad and idiotic ones also. Such members give a terrible impression of loyal Nintendo fans.
It's one person sole opinion, which has been backed up for the most part by the opinions of many others, get the fuck over it. Why should it concern you what one person thinks about the game, you say you like. If you find playing the game to be a good experience, good for you, disregard the opinion and move the fuck on.
