Thread: Dewy's Adventure

  1. Because I'm playing a video game. Graphics are nice, gameplay is better. Why should I deny myself Katamari Damacy just because the graphics are a chunk-o-rama? Why would I ignore having a blast on Wii Tennis with my family just because it offers a new definition of "plain" in its presentation?

    I played a few rounds of Jumping Flash the other week for an article and had a great time reacquainting myself with it. True, I wouldn't pay $50 for first-gen PS1 visuals today, but I still played a few more rounds than necessary just for the fun of it. I'd happily pay $40 for a PS2 version, and complain a bit about $50 but still shell out if it was as good as Jumping Flash 2.

    Bascially, I'm paying for the experience. Visuals are part of it, but what I'm doing is more imporant that how it looks. Up to a point, of course.

  2. Katamari doesn't have bad graphics though, it's got a great surreal style to it. Wiisports is obnoxiously ugly though, if you think that's decent your standards are far lower than mine. I don't think realistic automatically equals great, but this and just about every other wii game looks like a dreamcast or psp game. Not to say they can't overcome that with a great sense of style, developers just haven't.

    I was all ready type this too.

    Or ARE they?

  6. If you pull any individual item out of Katamari and look at it away from its context then they're actually pretty bad. What makes Katamari look so great is its art direction, and how everything works perfectly together.

  7. This game seems fairly interesting to me. Although, I have to admit that I was not a fan of Elebits. Elebits had some nice ideas and decent play mechanics, but the total execution of the game was just awful (admittedly, I thought Katamari Damacy was a big steaming pile of shit too though). Elebits is the only game on the Wii that I actually enjoyed less than Excite Truck, so I hope this Dewey game turns out a little better.

    If every game had the development time and budget of GoW, they'd all look as good. That being said, there are plenty of new 360 releases that don't look anywhere near as good as GoW.

    I agree 100%, the only problem is most devs have been beyond lazy with the wii so we aren't getting great art styles.

    Did you play a different SMS, PCE, and NES than I did?
