The nintendo Wii

And you honestly feel Square Enix, Capcom, Konami, SCEA, Bungie, Blizzard, Naughty Dog, SNK, EA, Sega, Ubisoft, ect... is not guilty of similar things.

Final Fantasy 13, Devil May Cry 4 and MGS 4 are like.. So fresh and new!

Like I said, it depends on the party. Nintendo doesn't just reuse an idea, they reuse the entire game (Super Mario DS anyone?).

Um, the bulk of your argument was that Nintendo is lazy and rehashes and that the only hope is that third parties won't do that same. The bulk of who I brought up are third parties with heaviest support on Xbox 360 and Playstation 3.

So.. All the systems suck and have lazy developers?

Edit: Get over the costumes thing. On your zombie link there is a very prominetly displayed banner to a costume website. It was a weak jab at suggesting you were a peadophile. Want me to explain the knock-knock joke next?

Sorry. You lost me at the third parties part.

There isn't much I can do to help you with your attention span. You should seek professional help with that.

Actually, one of your sentences does not appear to make any sense. Maybe english isn't your first language.

That doesn't make a damn bit of sense.

The only reason I asked you is because I didn't know what you're talking about. And if I'm the only person in this forum that didn't get it, then yes I feel dumb.

Sylpher · Thu 12/10/2006 04:33:24

Do you understand what a third party developer is?

skyfire2 · Thu 12/10/2006 04:36:57

You should probably quote your "bulk" because I have no idea what context you're bring "third party" into. And yes I know what a third party developer is or else I probably wouldn't even have found this site in the first place.

Sylpher · Thu 12/10/2006 04:39:00

I am going to have to go with you don't know what a third party developer is.

Sylpher is asking, how can Nintendo be lazy when there are hundreds of game developement companies that reuse and rehash old ideas repeatedly?

Also, both of you calm down please.

Vince Twelve · Thu 12/10/2006 04:49:32

Mr. Colossal beat me to it, but:

Skyfire, he was making perfect sense. You say that Nintendo takes a game, adds new special effects and rerealeases it. He said that Square Enix, Capcom, Konami, SCEA, Bungie, Blizzard, Naughty Dog, SNK, EA, Sega, and Ubisoft all do the same things.

Put it together:

The majority of Square Enix, Capcom, Konami, SCEA, Bungie, Blizzard, Naughty Dog, SNK, EA, Sega, and Ubisoft are third parties who make games for the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3.

So, saying that Nintendo is lazy by your qualifications also applies to every other game developer. They just make fancier graphics and lay them on top of the same tired gameplay. However, what ruins your argument is that Nintendo is now actually trying to encourage new gameplay in a stagnant industry. What's lazy about that?

Honestly, I don't think I'd need to do this for a 26 year old. Just admit that you lied about your age. It's not a big deal. Everyone will have forgotten about it in a week and you can start making more of an effort to post in a mature and intelligent fashion as if you were older than the minimum age limit for this forum.

Seriously, I was 16 and much worse than Skyfire.

A bit like Sony's Playstation then?

I don't see why people who are knowledgeable when it comes to hardware are questioning the lack of HD. Aside from the HDMI interfacing, you're also talking about pushing a lot more polygons with higher-res textures in order to make it look acceptable on hi-def TVs. If they increased the hardware capabilities (CPU, RAM, Video speed/VRAM, HDD size/speed) to that extent it'd jack up the price approaching 360/PS3 prices.

HD doesn't have a large share of the market, and any PC monitor aside from the most recent (and boasting support, of course) lacks HDMI.

Yeah, the Wii is a souped-up GC with a gimmicky interface, and Nintendo's planning to make a hardware profit (unlike the 360 that launched at a loss and the PS3 that'll take a loss until the hardware's refined). I'll also be acquiring a Wii at some point because, hell, it just looks like more fun (especially +alcohol & "casual" female gamers). The most time I spent on the 360 the guys have at work was with Geometry Wars... GRAW was fun, but I enjoyed Halo 1 DMs more. Given that Geometry Wars has a pretty good Mac/PC clone, I guess I saved $400 or whatever.

The way I see it, it's like this...

LimpingFish gets up and leaves the room, quietly closing the door behind him.

What make you think you're now a valued forum member, though?
